ESPN is gearing up to show a multitude of classic Monday Night Football games in the coming weeks. The network will air five games over the next five Mondays at 8 p.m. ET each week, giving football fans a way to pass the time while stuck self-isolating due to the coronavirus.
No. 2: Cowboys vs. Bills | Oct. 8, 2007
Final Score: Dallas 25, Buffalo 24
Location: Ralph Wilson Stadium | Buffalo, New York
ESPN Air Date: April 27
By all accounts, the Dallas Cowboys should have lost this Monday Night Football contest in 2007.
The Buffalo Bills had built up an impressive 24-13 lead over the Cowboys after three quarters at Ralph Wilson Stadium, and capitalized on five interceptions from Dallas quarterback Tony Romo — who opened the night by throwing a pick-6 on his very first pass attempt of the game.
Yet it was the final few minutes of the game that turned it into a Monday Night Football classic.
Dallas mounted a massive 12-play, 85-yard drive and capped it with a 4-yard touchdown pass to Patrick Crayton to bring them within two points with just 20 seconds left on the clock. Romo attempted to find Terrell Owens for a two-point conversion, however the Bills swatted the ball away to maintain the lead.
The Cowboys then recovered an incredible onside kick to get the ball back, setting up a 53-yard field goal from Nick Folk to seal the 25-24 win.

While I won't pretend to remember every Cowboys game I've watched over my lifetime of being a fan, I can definitely say this one has always stuck out in my memories. What a roller coaster ride of a game this one was to watch.
