I was at the comeback in San Fransisco in 2011 where Rome had craxked ribs and puntured lungs. Another game when we never had the lead during the 1st 60 minutes and kicked a FG as the clock ran out to put it into overtime. Minutes later Romo to Jesse Holly for 77 yards.

Cocky 49ers fan surrounded me for 60 minutes (3 hours+)...and were all shocked as we pulled it out in what seemed like seconds.

Todays game reminded me of that, since we never led during 60 minutes of regulation time.

I’ve been watching the Cowboys for more years than I’d like to remember. This win is no doubt one of the biggest regular season wins in team history. The Buffalo game when Romo came back from 4 or was it 5 turnovers was huge but this one is right up there. Too bad so many supposed Cowboys fans went to play golf or tiddly winks after the 1st quarter.

;) Yeah right up there with the Jason Garrett Thanksgiving Day win.

It was a thrilling end for sure

But one of the greatest wins in Cowboys history?

All playoff wins...ever...top this week 2 win at home vs an average, non-division opponent that we were favored to beat in the first place.

Right before halftime I told my peeps watching the game that the Cowboys were going to win this one. Just had a feeling.

I said regular season wins and not the greatest but one of the greatest. Chill Nancy.

I wouldn’t call it one of the greatest “wins“ in Cowboys history, too early in the season for that but definitely one of the greatest comebacks. We needed an onside kick to pull it off and converting an onside kick under the new rule isn’t very likely.
i get your point the title should be REGULAR season game but still counts that stuff at end, the dramatic is what made it great. You cant dismiss thta stuff it was FTW..

The 6th time the Dallas Cowboys have been down by 20 or more points after one quarter....the first time they have won.

They become only the 9th team in NFL history to have accomplished this, a 7.1% success rate.

It is definitely going to be on NFL Replay. Probably the game of the week.
It will be nice to see Blogging the Boys when they post the internet comments on the Cowboys-Falcons game. Should be some doozies.
Gonna be a lot of censored comments, I think.

I know we’ve had others but I can only compare this to the playoff win against Atl in (I want to say 1981). That was probably the closest miracle win I can recall.

NFL RedZone was saying the analytics had their chances of winning at 2% halfway through the 4th quarter.

I thought it was one of worst. Perception.
Right

This isn’t a very good team now. Had no business winning today.

Biggest gaff I’ve seen with Falcons not falling on the ball. And more horrid coaching decisions on 4th down. And going for 2 points too early.

Roger's come back win against the Commanders in 79, as he came back 2 different times in that game. From 3 scores down, then again from 2 scores down. Has to be tops. To win the NFCE.

To this day, this is the most exciting game in any sport that I’ve ever seen! Today’s game was a great win, but the brain dead play takes a little off the shine for me.
