Thanks for posting OP this is great to watch back when we were the real Dallas Cowboys.

Man that offense really just flowed really cool to see how athletic the offensive lineman were back then how they could pull with speed and get downfield.

That team ran like a well-oiled machine but then again with Tom Landry and Captain America at the controls what else would we expect.

I think I read that the Eagles were bringing back the kelly green color. I don’t like the trend of a super dark color version that so many teams have now.
I dont either, games would be more colorful if they didnt go with this dark crap.
The NFL used to have better colors, and a standard for uniforms where they were all the same design, but starting in the late 90's teams started
deviating from that design, and some look like a college team , not a nfl team.
Denver was one of the first, and I hate their uniforms, then seattle, NE etc

So Garrison with 153 total yards. Calvin Hill with 15 runs for 71 yards and Newhouse 7 carries for 81 yards.

They ran the ball 40 times and averaged 7.2 yards a carry.

Meanwhile Staubach completed 7 of 16 for 108 yards. four of those completions went to RB's. He threw 2 TD's but also 3 INT's that game.

That's what I'm talking about. When the QB, a HOFer, had a bad day, the rest of the team stepped up. The Eagles picked their poison and choked on it.

cheerleaders were pre white shorts, and they looked better, I am so tired of the whole cowboy look.
Although it doesnt matter, as they never show the cheerleaders any more !

Have you guys noticed that?? It is rare they show them during games.
Try to be PC and not offend the female viewers I suspect.
It isnt just a mans game anymore.

also philly color was a light green, now it is such a dark green, it looks almost black.
That seems to be a trend, make the color so dark it is almost black.
Sometimes when 2 of those teams play they are just black and white, no colors.
True, but how stupid is that. All the women I know say they're freakin hot.

Game was 50 seasons ago...but today's Cowboys need to take note for how to do it this fall.
Pollard, Dowdle, Davis, and / or rookie RB --split the carries like they did back then.
