Love that clip. Old bitter rivalry. Really hated each other.

Side note - Madden and Summerall. Best ever.

Was that Gogan that got hit? Late 80s NFC East was tough, glad the Cowboys reversed those years and became champions in the 90s...

Yep....they did hate each other. Now, the players exchange their jerseys after the game!!

I hate this washing of history junk. What happens when someone gets offended by the name "Cowboys" b/c it honors people who used to shoot Indians? We gotta stop bowing to the easily offended.

Exactly. They're the Commanders now but they were the *** then.
George Orwell was a prophet. 1984 is happening.
Even when you type the old name here it changes to new name lol

DW would have broke the internet and the zone..so many payers even back to the 90s would not survive the way fans micro judge them with so many sources of real time anylitcs and so much media saturation OVER analyzing every snap of every pay and all are now experts on who's good and who sux..

Most of Troys regular season games were not great at all. it was heavy ES22 and that OL with MI and Novacheck winning close games and trust me not all were pretty or blowouts. Many games just like last Sunday..

go look at Troys INTs for his career.. act like Daks Jag over some INTs ... DW was much like, romo, would bever have survived the he needs to grow, he sux, he needs to be better , hes not the answer, be perfect or be damned!

Back when Cowboy fans loved their QB and hated the other team. Those were the days.

I had to do my final paper in high school on that book.

Contrast that to how the team reacted to vicious hit on Dalton. The non-response on Dalton’s hit was embarrassing.

Now the players only have loyalty to one thing, MONEY!!!!! It’s kind of pathetic when you think about it.

Naw just telling that Leadership is Earned Not Given.

Danny White was a Legend and at the end of his Career.

Yes.
And we need to bring back the word fracas.

Wrong - it’s a teammate in a team sport. Henry V.

,...who won that game?

Danny was so close so many times. SF just got in the way! Love these old clips. Reminds me of late Sunday days! Playing late at RFK was always a slog

Fans idea of a Teammate in a Professional Lockerroom

This young Team didn't know Andy Dalton.

Definitely didn't use the Dalton Era Bengals playing Madden

Skins 24-20. Assured a losing season for us. That was the beginning of end after 20 yrs of winning record. Second straight losing record

It has little to do with Danny White being a HoF at the end if his career and lack of respect for Dalton. You realize that White was the one standing up for his lineman, right? The original late hit by Warshington was on a lineman and White went after the ‘skins player.

I don’t care who started or who finished. The cheap shot on Andy Dalton went unanswered. It was a horrible thing to do but more reflective of the relationship Dalton didn’t have with the young players on the team.
