There was a controversial play at the beginning of the second half of Super Bowl V, when the Dallas Cowboys were leading the Baltimore Colts, 13-6. An official ruled that the Colts had recovered a fumble by Dallas running back Duane Thomas near the Colts' goal line. The Cowboys argued that Thomas had simply let go of the ball when the play was over. Nonetheless, the ball was given to the Colts, denying the Cowboys a chance to extend their lead.
The Colts eventually won the game 16-13 on a last-second field goal by Baltimore kicker Jim O'Brien.
Dallas Cowboy Quarterback Roger Staubach has the dubious distinction of fumbling 5 times in the Super Bowl (over the course of 4 games). He holds the NFL Record for most fumbles and also has the honor of being tied (with Jim Kelly and Frank Reich both of the Buffalo Bills) for the single game record with three fumbles in a single game. He fumbled three times versus the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl X.
The Colts fumbled the opening kickoff of the second half and the Cowboys recovered. The Cowboys drove to the Colts 1 yard line when running back Duane Thomas fumbled the ball and the Colts recovered.
As of the start of the 2007 season, it is Warren Moon with 161. As of October 12, 2010, Brett Favre also has 161 fumbles.
The Dallas Cowboys appeared in 8 Super Bowls the most by any NFL team.
