The first SB against Buffalo because eveyone was hyping the Bills so much it was sickening.

Mine too.
Dallas had been down for so long, as they began to pummel Buffalo, it really sunk in how great they were.
I am always surprised how that team never gets the respect as maybe one of the top 3-5 all time greats in league history.
They completely annihilated a Buffalo team that was loaded at every position on both sides of the ball.
The ease with which Dallas beat them was frightening.
They were simply noticably stronger, faster, and more skilled than a team that had dominated most of the league for several years.

Besides every Super Bowl victory here they are.

In order...

1) '92 Championship game vs the whiners.

2) The "one armed" Emmitt performance vs the Giants.

3) the game vs the Eagles @ the "vet"(I believe the 91-92 season?) where we finally got over the "hump" of beating the birds. The one where K-Mart ran back a punt return for a TD.

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...
I wasn't waving a finger. I just answered the question posed in the post.

Nothing better than appreciating genius at work, and Roger was that day.
You got my first choice. That was an amazing game and anyone who watched it will always remember that one. Staubach got on a serious roll...great plays from Preston Pearson, Staubach and how about Larry Cole making the defensive play of the game by tackling Riggins for a loss on a 3rd and short!
Oh and to top it all off how about Charlie Waters and Brad Sham's radio broadcast with Water's telling Sham "You gott a believe Brad! You gotta love the Cowboys".
Listening to that broadcast and listening to Charlie Waters explain how Staubach would never quit and how the players always felt they could win with Roger in there...that game had it all.
Great choice!

The 1971 SB vs the Dolphins. We were finally the champions instead of next year's champs. So SWEET!!!
Agreed. The historical importance of that game is very often over looked and underestimated.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

the seattle game 2 years ago (my sig pic). guys had left the bar already and some had even thrown away their parlay tickets. then we make the biggest come from behind in recent history.

2nd place was the monday nighter in 2003 vs the giants with quincy, antonio and cundiff pulling a miracle come from behind win. that one was a classic too.

1994 NFC Championship Game.

For some reason, I remember being connected with that game by the time the score was already 21-0, 9ers. Does anyone remember was pre-empted the game that day? I went from a anxious/nervous pace to a "what the heck" attitude when that screen flashed on and Pat Summerall said "do not adjust your television sets...the score IS San Francisco 21, Dallas 0."

The FOX team then replayed the SF scores. I think one was an INT returned for TD, a Ricky Watters screen for TD, and a fumble return for TD. Is that correct? I'm going from memory since that day was the last time I saw this game. (Would love to have it on DVD if anyone knows how I could go about that).

Usually I was pretty upset after a defeat, but I felt good after that one...showing the world just how much talent and heart the Cowboys had back then. I knew they'd be back on talent alone.

I'll stray away from the obvious ones. Mine was Dallas destroying Washington 27-0 at Fed Ex in 2003 and Fed Ex being taken over by Cowboys fans. Even at our lowest and their highest (1991), Texas Stadium never had that happen.
