Same here. Especially with the Cowboys who have scored an average of 17 or less points a game over the last few years. Not going to win many games only scoring 17 or less.

Any TD works for me, just as long as the guy scoring it has a star on his helmet.

Most TDs you can see coming, methodically working down the field, but when your at the 20 and JJ rips the big one, man, I get giddy and jump up and down and high five anyone near me. A pass play works well too, but I love long runs. Especially JJ's runs, man can the cat move. He makes a 3 yard run exciting.

I like it anyway I can get it, but you're right about the run, unless it's like a quick slant to Price or Glenn, and they take it stright up the middle, then WOW!

See I love long runs, because they are usually more difficult to pull off, but the suddeness of an 80 yard pass play is sometimes more exciting. Any 80 yard play usually includes some running though... Like Alvin Harpers play against SF.... it was only like a 15 yard route and then he ran the rest of the way... I guess the difference is that on running plays you get to yell GO!! GO!!! GO!!! a couple more times :)

80 yard run is the most exciting because it doesn't happen nearly as often as an 80 yard pass, and it has a lot more action throughout the play...however, at this point with our Cowboys team, I might enjoy seeing a few 80 yard passes more.

An 80 yard pass is like poetry in motion. I get the same feeling no matter how many times it's replayed. Compare a run to a pass in slow motion .... no comparison.

I like the bomb. I understand someone saying the run last longer, but to me once the runner is behind the secondary, to me its over. The bomb comes from the backyard and then theres the excitement to see if they make the catch and then YAC!

The game against Washington when Aikman hit Ismail is one of my favorites!!

I'd have to go with any TD period!! I love watching my team score points, man, it has a feeling of its own. I'll tell ya what should be up there.....A defensive touchdow or a Kick return TD!!! Because I'd have to go with a defensive TD.....mainly because you dont really expect it. Its always possible but you get so wrapped up in watching the defense be hard a physical, that when something happens and they get an INT or Fumble recovery and take it back, you're like (insert feeling you get), and that is why we watch the game....for that feeling.

A little cheesy, I know, but am I right? thats what I thought, lol.

I agree, 80 yard runs are harder to achieve. The only way the 80 yard pass is just as, or more exciting, if an acrobatic catch is involved. Not just a bomb thrown down field to an open WR. Now if it was a 5 to 10 yard pass, or a screen, then that is better, because you then need the blocking and athletic ability to go the distance.
