right! The receivers only caught 3 passes, tight end caught 1. And they had a couple of third and short they couldn’t convert on. However, the Steelers secondary was quite good. Maybe if Percy Howard had played in place of Richards they would have won as he was burning Mel Blount in the last 2 drives
@@Dacashflow I feel you. Your Rams were the last playoff game Landry’s team would ever play and you beat us 20-0. We didn’t play in another playoff game until 1991

It’s funny to see that Dallas invented the shotgun in the 1975 season. I barely remember that season but it just seemed like dallas always had the shotgun going but not til 1975 opening day (and preseason)
Likewise, here. I was 7 y.o. in 1975. Oilers were the hometown team but they were in obscurity. Staubach and the Cowboys in this era were like superheros to all us kids. Lol. About 3 years later however, I became a die hard Oilers fan as that was the beginning of Luv Ya Blue era. And stayed a die hard fan until they moved after '96. But man how I miss the '70s NFL.
You enjoy being N,F,C,Version of the Raiders, Tons of big games,minimum success. in the 70's. Jerry will take his 3 trophy's and know he did more in 4years than the whole decade of the 70's.
In TWO games against the 12-2 Rams that season, the Cowboys allowed a total of 266 yards. L.A. averaged 340 yards per game against the rest of the league, but in two games vs Dallas, they averaged 133. They averaged 23.5 points against the rest of the NFL, but managed only 14 total in the two matchups with the Doomsday Defense - one measly TD each game. The Rams had the #1 Defense in the NFC in 1975, allowing just 9.6 points per game, and 237 yards. Roger's offense scored 18 and 37, and 277 and 441 yards in the two respective games. Only SF in week 8, and St Louis in the first round of the playoffs, compiled 300 yards total offense in a game against them all season. The Cowboys outscored the Rams 55-14 in these two contests. L.A. lost 3 games all season, and Dallas contributed 2 of them. The other loss? That was to the 49ers, in what was one of Steve Spurrier's best games in his NFL career, passing for 290 yards, with 3 TDs and no INTs. He also ran 5 times for 30 yards, accounting for 320 of San Francisco's 394 total yards in a 24-23 come from behind (they were down 14-0) barn burner in the LA Coliseum. The Niners finished 5-9, and the Old Ball Coach threw 5 TDs and 7 picks all year, including that game. His QB rating was for the season was 60.3, which was terrible, even back then. Spurrier had one decent season, 1972, when taking over for the injured John Brodie after game #5. SF started the season 2-3, but Steve led them to a 6-2-1 finish, and a playoff berth against... the COWBOYS! Staubach had also missed almost the whole season, throwing only 20 passes all year. Morton led them to a 10-4 record and a first round game against the 49ers... Brodie was now healthy, and guided the Niners to a 28-13 lead with 5 minutes to go. Landry pulled Morton, and Staubach put up 17 points to give Dallas an improbable, miraculous 30-28 win. This was the first of many playoff and big regular season wins that Roger would engineer. It was as stunning a defeat for SF as "the Catch" was for Dallas in 1981.
Why 2 highlight reels for each game? And the focus on some of them don't hold. The image stutters, or rocks left n right, and/or zooms in and out sometimes.
1975 Dallas Cowboys incredible playoff run NFC divisional playoffs beat Minnesota Vikings known as Hail Mary game NFC Championship beat Los Angeles Rams lose Super Bowl X Pittsburgh Steelers 🏈
The Steelers just copied St. Louis gameplan in both Super Bowls. Insert Swan and Stalworth for Gray and Harris. Cliff Harris is in the HOF and Charlie Waters was really smart. But speed could get by both of them.
Destroyed the Rams 37-7 at the Los Angeles Coliseum for the NFC Championship. Considering that the Cowboys held training camp in Thousand Oaks at that time, Los Angeles has always been "A Home away from Home" for the Dallas Cowboys.

These Cowboys were a quarter away from winning it all that season. Leading, 10-7, going into the 4th quarter of SB 10.
Or just one more series of downs
Landry was so stubborn in that game. Kept trying to run when he had no running game.

I was 5 in 1975. The first game I remember was super bowl X. This would have been a great team to follow. Great energy with this squad.
Amazing video
Thanks
Back when I was actually A Cowboys fan 🏈
I was 15 that year. Watched it live on tv as a excited Ram fam. Dallas 37 to Rams 7. Most embarrassed I’ve ever been as a Ram follower 😢
You weren’t embarrassed by 28-0 in 1978?
Used to their failures by then😔

Man I miss these days. Back when guys would try 100% make catches make tackles games weren't rigged as bad as they are today

had to click for Charlie Waters, he was then and still is a handsome man.
I remember the game @ Phila. Great game. Great result!

Trivia: the Kansas City game was played the night the Edmund Fitzgerald sank
what began an incredible run of football. Matched only by the early 90's.
The Monday night game in Detroit won by Dallas 36-10 was the game where i knew the Cowboys were going to do something big in 1975.
I would rather watch these old cowboy films than anything involving the jerry Jones era.

I always wish that a Dallas team from the seventies would have played in Oakland Raider team from the seventies unfortunately that never happened
Came close in 1976 and 1980. Dallas was a game away each time

so the cornerbacks dont share any of the blame?
@@j.w.4514 The corners for Dallas was a glaring weakness since the latter years of Mel Renfro till the drafting of Everson Walls
Back when the refs let the players play and weren’t calling a foul every 2 minutes.
Dallas had a way of getting over in The 1970's
They Underpaid the Key players so those who deserved it well.....

From back when they were the Cowboys. Now they’re a joke called the Jonesboys.
I am 57 years old and I could play in the nfl if I practiced for 2-3 months
🤔😂🤣with respect .
Did you play in the NFL as a young man? If that were true then maybe you could, for one play.
Steelers owned Cowboys in 1970,s.
Yes but they lost the 1972 game at Texas stadium
We got them in suoerbowl XXX
@@ricardojordanjordan2216that was so sweet. It would have been much better if Jackie smith caught by that TD
Only because Jackie Smith dropped a perfect TD pass. He catches it, Dallas wins 35-34 in the greatest Super Bowl in history
And cowboys have owned the steelers ever since..😂😂 including this year..
