Re: Detroit @ Dallas - 1970 Divisional Round

I saw the Cowboys 5-0 win over the Lions on TV at the time and saw a replay a few years ago. It was striking how bad Landry and Morton were. IIRC, Morton had a damaged elbow which impacted him throughout the playoffs. Another impact to the passing game was the loss of Lance Rentzel during the last ...

Re: Replacing a Legend-Danny White in 1985

That picture would be '74 season because the numbers are on top of the shoulder not the sleeve.

Re: So, now it was Doomsday that changed the game?

The Flex was a great D to play in if you were a D lineman. Not so much if you were a D back. The Cowboys always underperformed in the secondary as to personnel and results. I'm assuming your premise is that, because the flex is designed to stop the run, the DL playing off the ball would give the QB...

Re: The Most "Viking" of the Minnesota Vikings

I'm not a Viking fan and may be missing the definition of "Most Viking" but Doug Sutherland over Alan Page (HOF)?
