Let me count my plays:
- Lilly 29 yard sack Super Bowl VI
- Hail Mary
- Larry Cole tackle on Riggins in 1979.
- Robert Newhouse TD pass to Golden Richards Super Bowl XII.
- Dorsett 99 yard TD
- White to Pearson twice 1980 Playoff in Atlanta.

This is just the Landry era.

Great list. Those are the big ones. Just three more of mine from the Landry years...

Clint Longley Thanksgiving Day pass to beat Washington.

Roger’s 4th & 16 pass to Pearson to keep the drive alive before the Hail Mary. Perfect sideline throw that also stopped the clock.

Staubach’s TD pass to Billy Parks in the NFC Championship game in San Francisco. It was an unbelievable 4th quarter comeback. We got them before they got us with The Catch.

Roger to Tony Hill on the fade in the 79 game
Newhouse halfback pass in the SB
Preston Pearson catch along the sideline on 4th down just before the Hail Mary
So many I could go on and on

Roger TD pass to Tony Hill to beat Washington in #12's last season.

Danny's miracle to Drew vs Atlanta...div play-offs.

Tony D's 99.

Too Tall's tip to Jeffcoat for a TD in '85 and again in '87.

Herschel's 60yd TD in OT to beat NE.

Herschel's 2 84yd TDs vs Philly...one on a pass...one on a run.

Might be Aikman to Harper in the 92 NFC title game when we had a 3rd and 7 or so and we were backed up. Harper broke it for about 80 yards, and that play sealed the deal sending us back to the SB for the first time in 13 years. I was there, and the crowd went from so loud to silent. It was beautiful.

Bledsoe to Glenn flea flicker. I just really hate the KC Chiefs.



Rest in peace, Terry Glenn.
