Newman.................2005 against Carolina after Ware stripped Delhomme and Steve Smith recovered it and started to run towards the first down marker. Newman was the last person to stop the first down from happening and he not only tackled one of the toughest players pound for pound in the league, he SLAMMED him. I think that play shows what Newman is all about.Any others?
 
1. Against the Rams last year when Gurodes long snap went way over Romo's head. After kicking back a couple of times Romo turns around and runs about 40 yards for a first down. Amazing play by Romo.


2. Against he Patriots, we are on the 2 yard line. Romo hands the ball to Barber, who instantly gets into trouble in the end zone. Barber breaks about 10 sure fire tackles for what was the most amazing 2 yard gain I've ever seen.


Those are the 2 plays that stand out for me.

I still think that, although it was exciting as hell to watch, that the play was boneheaded. You gotta know when to fold 'em and Barber should have gone down inside the 1 instead of running back into the end zone
 
TO two plays stand out for me the most

Parcell's Yanks Bledsoe and the start of Romo Mania begins (Romo's 1st real game) Romo is up and down but he gets us back in the game it is 4th and we need a 1st down Romo throws a strike into TO hands;he drops it pretty much sealing any chance to come back and win.

Next tight game with the Commanders Romo once again throws a strike to TO bam he drops what would be a td and we lose the game later.
 
Romo's amazing escape against the Rams no doubt. But the 2nd long re-kick against Buffalo is a close second.

Romo scrambling and throwing off his back foot hits Witten perfectly instride for 42 yards to set up the game winning field goal against the Giants with under a minute left.
 
i believe it was Wares rookie year, week 17 vs the Rams...sweep to the left with Marshal Faulk, Ware not only stops him but picks him up and SLAMS him to the ground

November 2005 - Roy taking a McNabb pic to the house for the Cowboys win.

Last Year - Witten's helmet off rumble (Certainly his career defining play).
 
all of those are perfect.....never give up. I'd have to say the Witten run without his helmet is my favorite.

Good call... That play did rock.

Steve Smith in the open field with pretty much no one behind you and only a few yards to go for a crucial first down? No problem.

I know Witten's helmetless romp has been mentioned, right?

What about Roy destroying that poor San Fran kick returner and then recovering the fumble his rookie year?

Or the Newman/Roy combo for the INT in the Seattle playoff game?

Jay Ratliff sprinting 70 yards down the field to recover Newman's fumble in the Buffalo game was pretty indicative of his hustle, too.

The Romo throw IR mentioned and the Roy INT to defeat McFlabb right after Parcells' brother had died were awesome as well.

Real cute. For TO since he has been a Cowboy i would say against Chicago when people were doubting us saying we weren't forreal. TO catches a pass after Romo does some slick move in the pocket. TO dodges Urlacher and Tillman i believe and gets up flexing his muscles. Thats was probrably the best performance he has had as a Cowboy.

That must have happened before I got home from school, because I don't remember that play. I didn't get home till half-way through the 3rd quarter.
 
Just about everytime Marion Barber touches the ball defines what type of player he is.

But the Patriot run was my favorite.
