What was your most exciting win as a Cowboys fan?

[morat1959]

That first SB! Getting over the hump as next year’s team. Those were some fun years!

January 16, 1972 - Dallas 24 Miami 3

The '72 Superbowl. After hearing the Cowboys couldn't win the big games for years, they finally did.

 

[Arkyvarminter]

I don't know but when we finally beat the Steelers in the SB I was pretty happy!

 

[RS12]

Super Bowl 6. They broke through, won the big one, and their HOF players performed like HOF players all game. A great day to be a fan and really the beginning of America's team.

Are you intentionally being sarcastic? Too Tall retired in 1989 and Phil Simms never played for Buffalo. Neither one would have played in Super Bowl XXVII

I was mentioning my most exciting game but also mentioning my single most exciting play.

Two different games

Not counting SB wins, the 92-93 NFCCG win in Candlestick was my personal favorite. Payback for The Catch.

....and the 1993 Gnats-Cowboys...Emmit ran with a "hot shoulder"

Here is a 3 minute about the most exciting game in Cowboys history - Super Bowl VI.

Landry’s smile wasn’t any bigger than mine that day. I was 13 years old and you couldn’t tell me NOTHIN! Lol All the non Cowboy fans caught it the next day of school!

Easy choice for me… 1992 NFC Championship Game in the mud at Candlestick Park.

Nobody thought that the upstart Cowboys - the youngest team in the NFL - would go to San Francisco and beat the mighty Forty Niners.

In part it was so sweet because of 1989. The Cowboys had hit rock bottom that year, winning just one game all season (suck it Commanders). They were the laughingstock of the league and people were saying a college coach would never win.

To go from that to a dominant dynasty was as sweet as it could get, and for me the pinnacle of that turnaround was the ‘92 NFCCG. I knew if Dallas won at Candlestick, they were going to win the Super Bowl.

I think it was sweetest for many of the players too. The one’s who had suffered through that ‘89 season and felt both the pain of humiliation as well as the pain of Jimmy’s training camps in ‘90, ‘91 and ‘92.

Those guys went through hell and to arrive at the top of their sport as a championship dynasty made it mean so much to them… just like it did us fans.

The '99 opener in Washington. We were down 21 points in the 4th quarter and came back. It was the only road game we won that year. That same play was called for Rocket earlier in the game but he dropped it. He caught it in OT.

I realize that now.... your comment confused me a bit because it was in reply to super bowl 27.

My bad

 

[Blackrain]

December 23rd 1972 candlestick Park against the hated 49ers.

One of Roger Staubach's most heroic performances bringing the Cowboys back in the fourth quarter throwing touchdown passes to Billy parks and Ron sellers to win the game.

 

[Whyjerry]

Niners NFC championship in 1992. Aikman to Harper and Madden/Summerall call was perfection.

 

[dupree89]

for me, cowboys/ broncos super bowl.
non super bowl game id have to think about but maybe the hail mary game

I can see how that might happen. There’s was games not plays

yep. i remember that game

 

[75boyz]

Super Bowl VI was a couple years before my fanhood began.
I began in the 74-75 season. So SB XII was my personal best feeling as a fan. Having endured that SB X loss to the Steelers, it was a relief for me to finally get that championship feeling as a fan. But then to lose to the Steelers again the next year following the SBXII victory pissed me off all over again.

I swear if they had at least split those 2 Super Bowls with the Steelers I'll bet more of those 70s era Cowboy players are in the Hall of Fame today.
Others have made these past same comments. I agree with them.

I was very glad to finally beat the Steelers in SB XXX too.

Down by 21 with 10 minutes left in the game.

 

[zrinkill]

All the Superbowls and NFC championship games in the 90's.

As far as regular season ........ the Cowboys vs Bills game on Monday night in 2007 after Romo had his worst night of all time (throwing 5 int's) , he lead an unbelievable 4th quarter comeback and won the game.

 

[eastcoastfan]

I remember the Dallas vs Washington comeback from behind game and overall Dallas win in OT Aikman to Rocket Ismail 76 yard bomb! I had Commander fans calling me talkin so much ish then SILENCE!!!!!!!!!
