So very true. They are both in the Hall of Fame in Canton. I think. Well, I know Madden is and I can't fathom Pat not there too. I'm also looking forward to seeing Troy and Joe working for ESPN. The NFL needs more competition for football revenue.
@@PlanetEarth3141 Hey Sir Thank You for not being a stuck inside the 1920s get off my lawn Mudd fencers box ! Thank you for being a INTELLIGENT Football fan & knowing great announcers when you hear them in Buck & Aikman ! Romo is very good & he knows his plays he's great at describing what's going on with the plays in the game ! Why did Starbach ever announce games ?
Was it baseball or golf or something at some point ? Don't understand this when football was football thing ? I know that's what all the 90 n older crowd is saying it's the new in cool fit in thing .
Thank You Very Much Jamie-Pat and John-The Very BEST!!!!-Send Me Some Old Redskin Games!-Thanks Again-Tom-Germanton N.C.--Jamie-Redskins/Dallas-With John and Pat If You Can Find "em"
I remember this game when I was 10 years old the day after Halloween. Great comeback by the cowboys boys and I remember being mildly shocked that Franklin missed that game tying field goal attempt
Missed field goals, especially chip shots are by design. If you ever want to "influence" a game, get to the kicker and/or qb. It is really so easy in football.
me too. I was also 10 yrs old. I had a subscription to SI at the time. There was an article on this game the next week - the headline read, "The Eagles have Landed....Crash!"
Thanks for posting this. I love the Cowboys! - always have. Pat Summerall and John Madden are among the few all-time greats, along with Al Michaels, Merlin Olsen, Jim Nantz and Howard Cossell! Don't care for Danny White though. I lost all respect when I worked with him in Salt Lake City for a couple of seasons while he was coaching the Utah Blaze arena football team. What a jerk! He treated everyone in the organization, as well as when interacting with fans, like he was God's gift to the world, and that he was far too important to give you the time of day.
I know one thing, you have to think the backup QB was told to stay warm. Even back then, who lets a starting QB punt the ball? What if the runner breaks? Was White suppose to make the tackle?
Pat and John at the top of their game here. Madden was finally loosening up by this time in the 1981 season and it's before he got more demonstrative shortly after.
I'm an Eagles fan and I'm watching this classic The Glory Days even though Dallas won this game. This division the NFC East became the Beast of the East
I remember being a kid in 81 and thinking then that the niners were just having a lucky season. They had been horrible for years. Madden knew what he was talking about.
This is a instant classic! The 🦅Philadelphia🦅Eagles🦅 vs. the 🤠Dallas🤠⭐Cowboys!⭐ For a 2 game lead or a tie on top of the division! On top of that you have John Madden and Pat Summerall as the announcers! This is pure NFL BLISS! This is coming from a Green Bay Packers fan! But I still know and LOVE a great rivalry and a awesome game when I see it! Sorry but I'm NOT a ⭐Cowboys⭐ fan. NOT really a 🦅Philadelphia🦅Eagles🦅Fan🦅either, but hey you gave us Reggie White, you've had some great players and some iconic games and teams, so GO 🦅EAGLES!🦅
You can thank our a-hole owner Norman Braman for allowing Reggie White to leave town. He was despised around here even before parting with Reggie. Buddy Ryan often derisively referred to Braman as "the guy in France" as he lived there quite a bit during the year. He was the same jacka$$ who started charging players for socks.
Eight days later on MNF, I was at the game in Texas Stadium when the Cowboys beat the Bills 27-14, coming back from a 14-7 deficit. The ticket price was 12.50 for upper deck.
as a kid not even a teen yet, when i found out John Maden was going to call games, i couldn't wait to hear him. who wouldn't want to listen to a genius call football game?
I remember this game well. I was a Cowboys fan in college in the New Orleans area. This was the first meeting between the Cowboys and Eagles since the NFC Championship game the season before. The Saints were not very good that year, but, wouldn't you know it, they sold out more than 72 hours before kickoff for their game that All Saints Day against their division rival Atlanta Falcons. That meant the New Orleans CBS affiliate could show Falcons-Saints in the early time slot, but couldn't show the late game, even though it was a doubleheader Sunday for CBS. I was really bummed. Until this other Cowboys fan in the dorm said this other guy, a Saints fan, had a little black-and-white TV in his room, and said we could try to pick up the Cowboys-Eagles game on the Baton Rouge CBS affiliate. We had to jostle the rabbit ears a bunch of times, but we got the game. It was delightful to see how after the Jaworski-to-Carmichael bomb put the Eagles up 14-3, the Cowboys came back so methodically, just wearing the Eagles down. Then to have, of all people, Joe Pisarcik, lead the Eagles to the brink of a win or at least a tie in the last two minutes was nerve-racking. When Tony Franklin shanked the field goal, my fellow Cowboys fan and I were whooping and hollering. Later, over a cold one, I remarked how in the NFC it's always Dallas and Somebody, Somebody and Dallas. Green Bay was up there for a while, then it was Washington, then it was Minnesota. Now it's Philadelphia. But the Eagles are just another flash in the pan, I said. The Cowboys will be right up there. My friend laughed at that one and that became an inside joke between us the rest of our time together at school. I quit being a Cowboys fan when Jerry Jones fired Tom Landry in February 1989. But during my time as a Cowboys fan, this was the sweetest regular season win of them all. They beat the swagger off the Eagles. In Philadelphia. At 2:27:16, Jay Saldi wonders from the crowd, "Where's the noise now?"
Franklin can make a 59 yarder at Dallas stadium 1979 to win 31 to 21 ! But yet he he misses a 20 yarder here to tie it ? Was there heavy wind for this game ?
You tube has a lot of old games for you to do that. Instead of whining & crying about today's game. And why go back ? Persevere move on, don't you want to see children go up and have grandkids and all that instead of being stuck in one era.
2:02:15. Madden references the Holy Roller! It had happened less then ten years prior, fresh in his memory. I wonder if the NFL films version of it hadn't been made yet in 1981. Probably not. Pat Summerall is the best announcer.
Man I sure do miss John Madden Pat Summerall just excitement of the game and the way he used to say f r a v e the Packers quarterback I used to just absolutely love it cuz Brett used to throw that rock
Sweet revenge for 1980!!! The Eagles dynasty was short lived, just four seasons, 1978-1981, ending with a WTF loss to the underdog Giants in the Wild Card game, courtesy of a 21 point first quarter deluge.
yes but the cowboys were robbed in the championship game because Drew pearson was Horse collard and Danny white didnt really fumble it was really an incomplete pass

I still LAUGH when I tell people the Cardinals - in this case, in St. Louis - used to be in the NFC EAST and they don't believe me until they look it up! LOL.
For Rodney Parker before the miss field goal lost them the game. That was a perfect ball on that slant and he just choked by dropping it. In critical games like that you can't blow moments like that.
@@edwardcricchio6106 The New York Giants after that win took a trip to California to play the San Francisco 49ers and got the living daylights knocked by the score 49ers 38, Giants 24.
I remember this game. I was 8 years old from Philly. This game started the downfall of the Vermeil Eagles. Things were looking treating heading into this game and they went totally down the tubes. The Eagles weren't a factor again until 88 with Buddy Ryan
What caused the Eagles to go down the tubes ? And why wouldnt the Eagles wear there White jerseys & put Dallas in the jinxed blue jerseys ? This was a dumb move by the Eagles IMHO ! Cause Philly was 2-0 at the vet when they put Dallas in there Blue Jerseys ? I know jerseys don't decice the outcome of games. And I'm not superstitious & I know it might just be a coincidence. BUT at the NFL Level you try ANY Legal edge you can do ! That's why they wore there White jerseys for the NFC Championship game they knew Dallas did not like those blue jerseys ! Anything to get in your opponents head ya do mang !
Two teams just knocking the crap out of each other. Two teams that HATED each other. That's real football, called by two real football men. Today's NFL just ain't the same.
OMG what a choke by Charlie Smith and of course Tony Franklin ! But the drop by Smith before the field goal miss was inexcusable ! You have to catch that
2:27:18 - I remember this very moment, the Cowboys player shrugging, like “I don’t know how we managed to beat the Eagles at home!” I was 9 years old, we were on vacation in the Poconos. I remember this moment and the hit on Jaworski. IIRC, that’s when the NFL started talking about protecting the quarterback more.
Interesting, this was Madden's third year as an analyst, and the first year he was moved to the #1 team with Summerall. You can tell Madden is a little more scripted and reserved compared to later years, when he really cut it loose, and let his humor and warm and every-man style come through!!
It was strange to me too. Back then the Cowboys didn’t like to wear the blue jerseys and all of the NFC East teams would wear white at home to force them into the blues.
egads everyone is missing my point. I was simply intimating that I was a very big fan of Pat and John. I wasnt putting down the game, My fault for thinking anyone with the IQ of a blowfish would get it

Why did Starbach ever announce games ?
It’s always better to have announcers that actually played the game rather than College boy yuppies that cater to commercial sponsors.
Lifelong Cowboys fan. This was the last game played before I was born. I was born 6 days later on November 7, 1981!!!
***The*** best game broadcaster pair ever. Period.
Loved Enberg with Fouts and Dan Crici
It was Enberg with Merlin Olson and Don Criqui with Dan Fouts
@@Mark-sj3xb Criqui and Trumpy along with Dick Enberg and Fouts were my favorite. I love Summerall, but Madden wasn't my favorite.

John Madden and Pat Summerall are two of the biggest Legends, or Icons in NFL broadcasting. Their unique experience of calling games got me into watching teams I normally wouldn't.

He was a genius when it came to football and it's intricacies. He knew the playbooks, the defenses, the coverages, and the blitzes.

Although the Eagles won some games after this one, this game was the beginning of the fall of the Dick Vermeil regime in Philadelphia.

Greatest victory of the landry white duo era!
But then we saw the NFC championship where they fell flat
@@Mark-sj3xb no that was the year before.
At 51:10 no truer words have ever been spoken about football.
This Eagles team was even better than the 80 team that went to SB XV
All the insult and batterys have been thrown lol Randy White talks about snowballs with batteries in them
2:27:18 - I remember this very moment, the Cowboys player shrugging, like “I don’t know how we managed to beat the Eagles at home!” I was 9 years old, we were on vacation in the Poconos. I remember this moment and the hit on Jaworski. IIRC, that’s when the NFL started talking about protecting the quarterback more.
I did not know that Gary Hogenboom was on the Cowboys roster as early as 1981.
I believe he was rookie in '79 or '80.
Yeah I seen him on the sideline. Caught me off guard
The days when POLITICAL CORRECTNESS was left out of professional athletics! 😊😊😊😊🏈🏈🏈🏈
Thanks...I thought I might have been the last true sports fan!
@@michaellusk2856 appreciate that bruh. Being someone employed in the field of athletics, I yearn to be in the midst of informed people! 😉
Gosh the technology back then 😮 scary to see how far so fast 😩🙏🏾
Interesting, this was Madden's third year as an analyst, and the first year he was moved to the #1 team with Summerall. You can tell Madden is a little more scripted and reserved compared to later years, when he really cut it loose, and let his humor and warm and every-man style come through!!
Anyone know where the 1981 Eagles at Cowboys game is?
Veterans stadium Philadelphia
i remember watching this and wondering why the eagles weren't wearing their white jerseys like they did in the championship game
It was strange to me too. Back then the Cowboys didn’t like to wear the blue jerseys and all of the NFC East teams would wear white at home to force them into the blues.
The Eagles had such a great HFA at the Vet
@Randy Rasmussen The Vet was a dump, but it was our dump.
I don't think I ever seen cheerleaders look mad after a loss but the Eagles cheerleaders looked pretty pissed at the very end of the video
Thurman's hit on Jaws was a make up call for the hit on Montgomery out of bounds.
its like home , with dinner smells, cat tails, and the family doggy on the rug.. Thanks man.
well ur boy thought he would be forgotten...but i saw you wild boy running on the field in 2022
The missed field goal was hugely disappointing. Otherwise, it was a thrilling game.
good ole days
Old
The Birds went on a big time losing streak after starting out 6-0. They limped into the playoffs and lost a Wild Card game at home to the NYG.
Ofcourse they did 🤦♂️
I was glad ...I hate the fuckin eagles
Thoes were the days?
They could broadcast a game with the two worst teams in the NFL, but Summerall and Madden was must see TV!
Eagles might of lost the battle, but they won't he War beating them in the NFC Championship game on their way to the Superbowl
that was the year before, this was the 1981 season and the eagles lost to the Giants in the NFC wildcard game
@@sollyparker3947 that sucks, appreciate the update though
Dick Vermeil doesnt get enough credit for his coaching. He was great at building a good team from nothing.
dennis Thurman would knock you out.
Yeah I can see that.
When it was real football! The way it was intended to be played
It's odd to see Tom Landry without his hat on.
eagles e-girls!!!!!!!!!
Put a damn shoe on Franklin!
barefoot kicking, dumbest trend in sports history
There were quite a few of them back then though. And they all could kick it a long way. It always seemed painful to me. lol
I saw quite a few things that the refs would flag today
OMG Your gonna get the old heads revved up & whining & moaning & crying.
When football was real.
No it was fake
@@jamiesonmathias7859 it is today…
1:36:04
heh not even interested that much in the game, just saw the thumbnail of Pat and John and I jumped.
Then leave
BYE
It's a great game actually
egads everyone is missing my point. I was simply intimating that I was a very big fan of Pat and John. I wasnt putting down the game, My fault for thinking anyone with the IQ of a blowfish would get it
Full HD
Nice. The cowboys are 2x super bowl champs already, and it would be another 36 years before the Eagles would luckily win a Super Bowl. Die eagles die
😆😆
@@toms3664 😂
Eagles are stupid as hell for not wearing there White jerseys & stick the Cowboys in there jinxed blue jerseys ?
Right?
@jamiesonmathias7859
Maybe, just maybe, the Eagles prefer wearing green at home, fuck-tard.
Two great voices in football
