Harper, he was part of the reason Mike and Jay were open all the time.

T-Hill is in the team club records and stats, and he's played entire lengthy NFL career, all with the Cowboys - and a case can be made for him having a ballot for the Ring of Honor.
But was he better and more dominant than Owens ? ..... Was he better and more dominant than Dez ?
Hill would be 6th overall if my list would stretch out to that .. but otherwise ...

WRs
1 Michael Irvin
2 Bob Hayes
3 Drew Pearson
4 Terrell Owens
5 Dez Bryant
Terrell Owens was not a Cowboy.

He was a drifting malcontented hired gun nobody could stand being around.

unlike the aforementioned WRs, Owens did not originate and start out grounds roots as a Cowboy player, yeh i get that.
but just like Haley and Deion, there's no denying the "player" impact he brought to the team.

True, but unlike Deion, Haley became a Cowboy. Deion just became Primetime.

No receiver on the cowboys was better than TO. You can argue that some other guys had longer and better Cowboy careers, but none of them were a better receiver than TO.
You constantly amaze me as regards how consistently wrong you are. IT definitely is a gift.

Its the opposite actually. Its easier for me to analyze because I'm not some biased homer Cowboys fan. I can be realistic where some of you cant.

Getting it right isnt a gift. For me its just common sense.

I tell guys like you the hard truth they dont want to hear.

If you call yourself a Cowboys fan and never heard of Tony Hill then you are ignorant and need to get more familiar with your team's history.

Two of my favorite highlights of Hill’s career-
1. His TD catch in SB XIII. Drew Pearson made a tremendous deceptive block on that play. Here’s a link to the SB 13 highlights. Hill’s TD is at :32 seconds in the video:
2. His TD catch in ‘79 to beat the dead skins to clinch the NFC East in that great comeback. Here’s a highlight video of that game:

I watched that game live on a 13" b/w tv,lol, with my dad, after that tackle by Larry Cole on riggins for a loss I knew we would win,it was awesome.

That play by Cole is one of the most underrated plays in Cowboys history. If he doesn’t make that tackle, the Cowboys don’t win the East or make the playoffs that year.
