Danny White's special message for the Musers on The Ticket

[ilovejerry]

let me say How much I loved watching Danny White as a player !!
He never got his due had to fill some crazy cleats following Roger and I think he did a great job. I wish he would be put up in the ROH Danny White what a great QB and seems like a unbelievable human being ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Him !

I didnt realize Sammy Baugh was a Cowboys player? I thought I made my point, but maybe I didn't. Danny White was the best Cowboys combo QB1 and punter ever. If you haven't watched his tapes, check him out.

Yup that’s the way I understood your point as well and I agree

 

[cheftjpeck]

Loved Danny White.. too bad the fans disrespected him screaming for the one hit wonder Gary Hogeboom...

Then we started realizing what we lost after white left and Steve Peluer among others was QB

 

[morat1959]

He was the 80's Tony Romo.

Not even close! Romo or Dak weren’t on his level.

 

[morat1959]

I liked both QB's, but my comparison was mainly stating both were close but never got to the SB.

Romo never got close!

 

[Bullflop]

That's a fine example of some heartfelt sentiments from a nice guy.
It was good to see he's doing so well and has such fond memories.

Danny White remains one of the most underrated Cowboys players. Not HOF great but for about 4-5 years, he was an excellent QB for this franchise. Definitely one of the nicest, classiest people to wear the Star.

I would think the odds are a little higher of converting a fourth down as a punter by running rather than throwing it. White’s fake punts were never by design he would just see a lane and takeoff. I’m not sure but Landry may have given him the green light to takeoff if he saw an opportunity. From what I remember when he stutter stepped and took off it worked most of the time.

Yeah, it never looked like a called play. I bet hit percentage was pretty fan near 100%. U came recall him ever not making one

Do you, by chance remember how large his forearms were? He had a very strong arm.

Danny White almost beat the 49ers on the first play after the catch by Dwight Clark. He hit Drew Pearson who looked like he would go 75 yards when he was yanked down by a horse collar tackle. Next play, a defensive lineman broke through sacked Danny and he fumbled.

Danny was 1st pick in 3rd round in 1974. I was a t that draft. Danny was star at Ariz State, taking his team to top 10. He was also its punter and starting second baseman on baseball team,

His size when drafted and I kid you not, do not laugh, 6'2" 175. He went to USFL and came to Boys in '76 at 182 lbs. He had below average arm strength, but made up with being so smart and a great athlete. He ran a 4.55. He had great running backs, receivers through 83. Then it went downhill, surrounded by terrible players. Gil Brandt went 10 years with almost all draft busts, 1978-1987. Not even one great draft, Irvin and Norton, 1, 2, in 88 could save them. The Arkansas boys came and...

What a class act and total gentleman Danny White has always been. One of my favorite All-Time Greats.

With you on that.

Never forget his playoff win against Altanta down 10 points with like 4 minutes to play.

Priceless.

Never was a 'me first' guy unlike some QBs we know.

I could swear he had a strong arm, but you'd remember better than me. I met him after he retired and remember how big his forearms were in relation to his overall arm length.

Always good to see my main man okay and posting.
Looking forward to this coming season (whenever it happens) and your observations of the team we love to watch's work.

 

[Cowboys_vs_The_World]

Even though we never got to the super bowl with Danny White, he still was fun to watch and root for, I'm pretty sure he holds a special place in the hearts of Cowboy Fans who grew up watching him.

 

[CCBoy]

Never heard that story, but wouldn't doubt it. I went to high school in El Paso and remember when he'd come to play UTEP. He was sneaky as hell in college.

Miner Stadium was a lot of fun...

Sammy played at a time when he could have starred at 12 positions in one season of football. Lol. I doubt he could have done the same by the 80 s.
