Tony Dungy, defensive back for the Pittsburgh Steelers, describes his time playing in the 1978 Super Bowl championship. His first-person account discusses his emotions before and after the game, the sinking realization that it was all over, and that football will only always be, just a game. Super Bowl XIII was an American football game between the American Football Conference (AFC) champion Pittsburgh Steelers and the National Football Conference (NFC) champion Dallas Cowboys to decide the National Football League (NFL) champion for the 1978 season. The Steelers defeated the Cowboys by the score of 35–31. The game was played on January 21, 1979, at the Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida, the fifth and last time that the Super Bowl was played in that building.
