Get ready for a week of The Catch

[atlantacowboy]

The Catch is still my most painful cowboy memory, and every time we play the 49ers, it gets replayed over and over. It is truly annoying.

We had the game in hand at Candlestick Park, Danny White was about to take his place in the ascension of cowboy QB legends, and then Montana comes up with a desperate drive and finally the fateful throw to Dwight Clark that changed it all. I watched it live and it felt like slow motion even then.......... the way the ball just hung in the air.

A new dynasty was born that day instead of a continuation of our own....... Landry never made another super bowl.

The play was iconic, but had Pearson been able to get away from Eric Wright, "The Catch" would've occurred on a game winning play for us.

Haper's catch is what matters now

 

[maryquality]

Every dang time they subject us to that "catch". It's annoying as hell.

Which just makes the game all the more painful b/c we had a chance to overcome The Catch at the end......only old Cowboy fans remember that part.

How about “The Pass Interference” that wasn’t called on Deion.

Cowboys would have won 4 straight!!

Yes. The Slant is way better than The Catch. Hell, Montana said he was throwing it away. Our was intentional and covered more yards.

This is known as the catch and run.

The Catch and Jackie Smith dropping the TD pass in the end zone against the Steeler. It makes me cringe.

Too Tall almost had the block - and D.D. appeared to be in position to make the sack.
But Joe Cool hesitated - then floated a duck to Dwight.
Everson's coverage was very good until his last adjustment.

One of the greatest plays, in one of the greatest games, in league history.

Just hope they give equal time to the "Aikman to Harper Slant" that occurred 11 postseasons later in the same stadium.

SHOW US THE REAL CATCH BY DEZ!!!!

Every dang time they subject us to that "catch". It's annoying as hell.

Recently saw an interview with Montana, talked about the Cowboys trash talking that day before his pass to Clark. After the catch, Montana turned to great Cowboy DE Too Tall Jones, who pressured him, and said, "Respect that, mother (expletive)."

The game made me sick. I didn't like Montana then and I don't now. This is a big, big game Sunday.

I have never heard or seen it described that way. I have seen it called the catch 2. Regardless, it was a great catch and moment.

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

For me it's still Jackie dropping that td makes me sad to this day

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

Maybe watching that replay will give San Fran fans some comfort after they lose!
