What is your "All-Time Favorite Cowboy Game"?

THUMPER · 06-26-2006

It must be the offseason for all these threads to start over and over again but I'm bored so here goes... again...

The 1971 SB vs the Dolphins. We were finally the champions instead of next year's champs. So SWEET!!!

The 1992 NFC Title game against San Francico is Candlestick. We had indeed arrived.....

BTW, a close second being Emmitt's broken shoulder game in the Meadowlands in 1993

Easy... Super Bowl 27. I've never enjoyed a game more.

Second choice Super Bowl 12.

Third choice the '92 NFC Championship game.

Of the ones on TV, Super Bowl 27.

In person, probably the win over the Redskins in 1988.

Roger Staubach's last regular season game. 2 TD passes in the last 4 minutes of the game.

Dallas 35
Washington 34

Nothing better than appreciating genius at work, and Roger was that day.

Hard to call this my favorite game but I will call it the game in my video collection that I watch most often. I think I subconciously still believe that somehow we're going to complete that comeback instead of falling short. 1994 season NFC Title game in SF.

Aikman, Emmitt and others just displayed so much heart in that game that I do enjoy reliving it.

It's hard to pick one.

I loved the NFC title game blasting (37-7) over the Rams in front of 100,000 arrogant fans in the L.A. Coliseum in 1975. The Hail Mary happened the week before and everyone thought Dallas would roll over against the heavily favored Rams. As John Wayne would say, "Not hardly."

Also really enjoyed the 1992 NFC title win over the 49ers in muddy Candlestick. It was a statement game.

And of course, the Super Bowls.

Yeah.

1975 is my all-time favorite non-championship season. Landry was at his creative peak, I think. He got everything he could out of the talent that he had on that team.

Yeah. It is one of the biggest wins ever in Cowboys history.

As far as "most enjoyable games" go, I'd go with Jimmy Johnson's first Super Bowl. There wasn't much tension or suspense. It wasn't a nail-biter. It was a coronation. I enjoyed the whole thing. No suspense. Sometimes that is a good thing.

another favorite of mine(I gave you one last week on similar thread) is the NFC title game on way to SBXXX.

back and forth and then finally beating the packers in texas.

AmarilloCowboyFan · 06-26-2006

Definitely the game against the Giants when Emmitt played with the separated shoulder. That was a hell of a game.

And 52-17 also.

Week 2, last season. 14-13.

This reminds me of those players whose team is down 44-0 but then they get a late meaningless TD and thrust their index finger high in the air.

Redskin fans should be ashamed of how Dallas has owned them the last many years even when our team has been way down. Yet their 14-13 win last year has become their finger in the air.

Whatever...
