The only Cowboys game on NBC called by Charlie Jones.

[@nymike06]

Charlie was a wonder announcer with a distinctive voice.

[@donaldpennington7646]

Last NFC divion title for Tom Landry

[@MrT8599]

Charlie Jones called this game with Merlin Olsen instead of Dick Enberg. That's because Enberg was in St. Louis covering the National League Championship Series that day.

[@nymike06]

Good memory.

[@Mark-xl1ze]

The Cowboys' first win over the Steelers since 1972.

[@generationll]

The Steelers were 5-0 against THe Cowboys after 1972 to this game

[@fairmounthotelhotel2711]

including 2 super bowls. OUCH!@@generationll

[@TitoJSmith]

​@@fairmounthotelhotel2711Indeed.

[@jackkitchen737]

Danny White was a good QB. Not a great one. But he was underrated because he started for Big D, yet didn't win a SB. This is a good game to watch.

[@sonicboomg862]

No showing of Tony D's run when he got to 10,000....bummer!!!!

[@nymike06]

I know, I couldn't believe it.

[@danorthsidemang3834]

Mark Malone looked like a 35-year old man at age 21.

[@nymike06]

He was a decent QB. The year before, he took the Steelers to the AFC Championship game.

[@generationll]

This is the 6 of 7 games between Dallas & The Steelers between 1975 & 1988.THe Steelers would 6 of them

[@nymike06]

When the 90s came along. The Cowboys would be the one dominating the Steelers!

[@charleswilliamsjr2095]

Most of the country

[@tonystephens6858]

2:33:32 because dumping Thurman on his head wasn't a penalty?

[@aidanjamesmonaghan]

Dorsett's 10K carry & the replay purposely cut. Dumb.

[@cuauhtemocacosta2581]

MEXICO LOVES DALLAS COWBOYS AMERICAS TEAM .

[@FabulousRobbyRay-bc2tz]

All the legends basically gone from the Steelers. Webster, Shell, Stallworth, thats it.. Pretty much done with the transition couple years into several years of mediocrity and pretty bad seasons.... Malone was a great athlete. Shoulve gone after another QB and made him a "slash"...

[@user619tlsdca5]

Randy White is truly one of the Dirtiest Player in NFL History. White would always THROW HIS ELBOW WITHIN A CROWD OF THE BALL. Even laying the elbow on blockers as well. He knew how to get away with it depending on being in the open field or within a crowd. He was enjoyable to watch knowing he was very very old school even in the 70s and 80s. Much under rated..

[@user619tlsdca5]

Rumor has it, White was wearing extra padding under his elbow pads, like a metal plate,lol..

[@nymike06]

Give me a break. White was NOT dirty player! Really think he needed to rely on being dirty to be a great player? You are the first person I ever heard call him 'dirty'. Perhaps the best DT of all-time.
