Default Cowboys Trivia For You
In 1961 the Cowboys and Giants played one time. It was a tie and the first non loss in Cowboys history. In 1982 they didn't play at all because of the strike.

In every other season they have played twice except 1967 and 1969. Why only one game in those years?

Correct!

In 1961, the Dallas Cowboys selected defensive tackle Bob Lilly with the 13th pick in the NFL Draft, making him the first player ever selected by the Cowboys in an NFL Draft. It turned out to be a wise selection. From 1961 to 1974, Lilly wreaked havoc in opposing teams' backfields and went to the Pro Bowl seven times. In 1980, he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Never heard of him. Is he an NFL QB from the past 30 years? Got me on that one.

What Dallas Cowboys running back set an NFL record with a 99 yard touchdown run against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football AND how many players were on the field for the Cowboys?

Dorsett was a special back. Too bad his knees gave out on him.
