I saw them at the time as a paper tiger. Not a 13-win team. They benefited from at least one fluky win (in the snow against Green Bay), and not one but three come-from-behind 16-13 wins over division rivals. Still, I had to give them credit for prevailing in what was an insanely competitive AFC Wes...

Maybe someone mentioned it and I didn't see it but didn't Elway get injured in the playoff game? I seem to recall him limping a lot in the 4th quarter.

Landry wasn't the Cowboys' coach in 1993 though.

The games that stand out to me are 1981 and 1984. In 1984 the Cowboys had a great comeback to win 28-27. 1984 the Dolphins knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs for the first time in 10 years. That game was great also.

Name the game... When both these teams met, they went into the game with a combined 15 losses. This would be the second victory of the season for the winning team, and their HC for this win was not their HC at season's beginning; and this very season would be the only season that he would ever at a...

Next game up... *Both teams finished the season with losing records *Two HOFers scored TDs *Three HOFers caught passes *One team was coached by a HOFer, the other team's coach is considered one of the worst coaches in football history (subjective comment) *A player in this game had 70 kick return y...
