Thank you for posting this. For me being a Rams fan since 1968, this is a watershed moment. After all the playoff frustrations from 1969 through the 70's with great teams, they were unable to defeat the Vikings or Cowboys in the big playoff games. This time they knocked off a great Cowboys team and went on to the Super Bowl. Even though they lost to the mighty Steelers, there was a great deal of satisfaction. To beat the Cowboys in Dallas and silence the crowd was a long awaited joy.
@noeltaylor35943 жыл бұрын
The Septien kicks before half led to the Smith TD right before the half. The last TD to Texan Billy Waddy was a great pass, but was tipped by Cowboy lineback Mike Hegman. You're right, it felt like it was destined for the Rams. As a Cowboys fan, I'll never forget Jack Youngblood playing on what they didn't know at the time was a broken leg. He wanted it. As disappointed as I was in this loss, I was more hurt when the Rams lost to Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl.
@Ram442 жыл бұрын
Long awaited joy? You completely forgot the Rams did the exact same thing in 1976 - beating favored Dallas in Dallas 14-12 to advance to the NFC Championship. And the Rams beat the Vikings in 1978 34-10 to advance to the NFC Championship though that was an easy win. Prior to that you guys were the Vikings bitch - you lost in 1968, 1974, 1976, and 1977. By the 1978 NFC title game, the Rams were so spooked that even though they had home field advantage they wore white jerseys at home to break their jinx. That jersey BS doesn't work and they lost 28-0. The Cowboys did the same thing in Super Bowl V by wearing their blue jerseys to break their supposed jinx as if the jersey had something to do with it. They still lost. The Broncos wore white in Super Bowl 50 to break their orange jersey jinx and they did win but give me a break. It means nothing. As to this game, amazing that the Hail Mary at the end of the half was the difference. Of all the Rams teams to get to a Super Bowl it was the 9-7 one. But the Steelers were not going to lose to a 9-7 team with Ferragammo. No siree Bob.

Me too, but in hindsight the loss isn’t as shocking. The 1979 season was chaotic for Dallas. Ed Jones retired to Box. Charlie Waters missed the entire season with a knee injury. Thomas Henderson was kicked off of the team in November. Dallas literally lost the strong side of their defense that year. The 1979 team wasn’t as strong as the ‘’77 and ‘78 squads. In fact, I think the ‘79 Cowboys and ‘79 Rams were among the weakest teams either franchise fielded in the 1970s.

Staubach suffered a concussion in this game. He hit his head on the turf on the go ahead TD throw to Saldi in the 2nd half. It didn’t knock him out, but it did affect him. Here’s a quote from him about the 1979 playoff loss from 12/11/2015 article in the NY Daily News. “It wasn’t like my normal bad concussion, but if definitely screwed me up. I wasn’t myself. So afterwards I was really thinking about retiring.” I’m sure that made throwing the football a little more difficult on that last drive 😔

This was the 1st year of my marriage. I didn't want my wife to be a "football widow" so I got her involved in the game and that year the Rams were always play like it was a chess match for which team had the last shot at a game wining field goal. She really got fascinated how they were working the clock.

Both these QB's came from colleges that ran the wishbone or triple option offense, in Navy and Nebraska. Where they next to never passed the ball unless they we're trailing. Navy only throws 10 passes a game now in this era! Staubach probably only attempted 100 passes his entire 4 years at navy!

You can almost hear Vin Scully cringing after the big play Waddy TD at 13:32. Scully always liked to stay silent for a bit right after a big play to let the audience experience the crowd reaction (for reference, see how long he was silent after Gibson's HR off of Eckersley in the '88 World Series), and instantly, George Allen butchers the moment with a monotone self serving affirmation about his critique of a 3 man pass rush.

Agreed, that's the coach in George...plus, I always wondered what lingered with him to replace Knox only to see a team revolt and Malavasi in.

Vince Ferragamo's performance in this game makes it absolutely astounding that the Rams won. Their last two touchdowns were in spite of his passes, not because of them.

LOL. As a Cowboys fan, that's why I'm still frustrated about this game 42 years later. That last TD to Waddy was a damn good pass though. Right over the 'backer, Hegman and into Waddy off the re-direct. I can't believe Septien did that crap on the kickoff right before half time. I thought Ferragamo was great after this in the playoffs, especially the Super Bowl. I so wanted the Rams to win.
