left in regulation, the Dallas defense took over the rest of the game, forcing turnovers on San Francisco's last three drives. First, linebacker Chuck Howley broke up a 4th down pass. Then on San Francisco's next possession, Brodie was intercepted by linebacker Lee Roy Jordan. Finally, after Mike Clark's 24-yard field goal attempt was blocked by 49ers linebacker Frank Nunley, safety Cliff Harris picked off a pass from Brodie that enabled Dallas to run out the clock. After the game, Dallas received a visit in the locker room from former US President Lyndon Johnson, who told Staubach, "You're the best. They should rename this place Staubach stadium." This was the second postseason meeting between the 49ers and Cowboys, with Dallas winning the previous meeting. The NFC champion Cowboys made their second consecutive Super Bowl appearance. Dallas defeated the Miami Dolphins of the American Football Conference 24-3 in Super Bowl VI to win their first Super Bowl. The Cowboys would make two more consecutive appearances in the NFC title game, but would lose both. After a one year absence from the title game, the Cowboys would capture their second NFC championship in 1975. The 49ers would once again lose to the Cowboys the following year in the playoffs, this time in the Divisional Round. After that, they would not return to the postseason until 1981, when they finally beat Dallas in the NFC title game en route to their first Super Bowl victory.

This made them the youngest franchise to make it to a Super Bowl era title game up to that point. Miami won the AFC East with a 10–3–1 regular season record and defeated the AFC Central champion Kansas City Chiefs in the longest NFL game in history, (27–24 in double overtime) at Kansas City's Municipal Stadium in the Divisional Round to advance to the AFC Championship game.
