    The most under rated and appreciated Cowboy of all time is Bill Bates. The pound for pound hardest hitter that has played for the Cowboys.

      Bates is probably the only Dallas Cowboy that Tom Landry, Jerry Jones, Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer loved. He played forever and a day which isn’t easy at safety. He just kept going as long as he could.

    Too Tall…the 1st player drafted in 1974 overall…15 year career…never missed a game…changed the way every quarterback played the game due to his ability to make Quarterbacks adjust their passes to the strong side of the field! Dominated the run along with Larry Cole & Randy White! To this day one of the most recognizable players in the history of the NFL! Never embarrassed the Cowboys in any way shape or form…great ambassador for the Cowboys, for the NFL and sports overall! He should probably be mentioned in this discussion! Also, how about Harvey Martin…if the league would actually recognize all of his sacks he would still to this day be the NFL’s leading sack artist! Just something to think about…

    Talk about players from the early days , I absolutely agree with Chuck Howley, the guy in middle Leroy Jordan. Landry said when the plays over , no matter where its at on the field and if he's not on the bottom of the pile #55 will be real close. And the first # 22 Bullet Bob Hayes ,I mean he is the reason the zone defense was invented. Emmitt Thomas was the fastest man onthe Chiefs , had the angle on Hayes and he out ran Thomas and the angle..1964 -100 Gold Medal in the Olympics, fastest man in the world that was tough as nails and a true talent at receiver. Double and triple teamed more than any receiver in history and like I said, he is the reason for the zone defense. I don't know who you bump off that top 10 but #22 is at least 10.5. In fact that maybe a good way to rate the top 10.5 greatest Cowboys have a tie at 10..but Bullet Bob Hayes needs to be there.. A safety name Woodson ring a bell?

    You guys easily and effortlessly dismissed Tom Landry. We all understand he was just a coach. But what a coach. With out him the Dallas Cowboys never would have been.
    There would had been a team from Dallas but that would have been it, a team from Dallas.
    No one gives him credit for what he did for the game. Landry singlehanded gave us the modern game of football. Kind of Before Landry BL and After Landry AL.
    Just a few things that I can remember; shotgun, 4 man defensive line, nickle back and nickle defense, the daddy of motion in back field...and so on and so no.
    Not to mention the computer that helped with the draft picks. This is why I say there would had never been The Dallas Cowboys without Coach Tom Landry from Mission Texas.
    Oh, look it up, during sometime in the mid 80's if not half almost half of NFL head coaches had played or coached under the tutelage of the big man himself. What other coach can claim even half of that.
    Respect where respect is due.

    @ashleighelizabeth5916 2 роки тому +4

    I can't argue with a single one of the players they chose for this list. Every single one of them was a great player... But then I think about all the GREAT players that were not on this list and wonder how do you leave this guy or that guy off. Some of the players not mentioned here that really are worth of consideration...
    Harvey Martin, only man to share co Super Bowl MVP status with Randy White. He also led the NFL in sacks that season.
    Ed Too Tall Jones, 15 seasons he played with Dallas and is the 5th leading tackler in team history. The NFL practically invented a stat because of Jones and his ability to get his hands in the way of passes.
    Mike Ditka, you know the competition is really fierce for a spot on this list when you have to leave a HOF inductee off of it. Along with being a great TE for the team he was an assistant coach before moving on to coach the Bears. In fact he won Super Bowl rings as a player and assistant coach with Dallas before adding his head coach ring later on with Chicago
    Jay Novacek, speaking of All Pro TEs Jay at least deserves an honorable mention. The triplets may have taken the lion's share of the glory but Novacek helped keep the chains moving with his reliable hands in the middle of the field.
    Bob Hayes, called the fastest man alive and the first truly great runner to play for the Cowboys. Seriously the man was an Olympic Medalist who learned to play football pretty well too.
    Charles Haley, OK he gets dinged because he spent part of his career in SF before he came to Dallas but the man is on The Ring of Honor and in the Hall of Fame. Oh and he was present for all three of the 90s era Super Bowl wins.
    Darren Woodson, how he isn't in the HOF yet is beyond me. Larry got the Super Bowl MVP trophy and Deon was certainly flashier but Woodson was a ROCK in the middle of that secondary.
    Everson Walls, poor Everson gets no respect and no mention since his career encompassed the slow downward slide during the 80s. Be that as it may he still led the NFL in interceptions 3 of the 8 years he was in Dallas and got 4 Pro Bowls. I remember being very happy for him when he finally got a Super Bowl Ring with the Giants. He definitely earned that ring! Not bad for a guy everybody said was too slow and too small to be a starting corner back in the NFL
    Danny White, one of the most forgotten and underappreciated of all Cowboys. Poor Danny never could get the team to the SB and had his career cut short by a broken wrist that never fully recovered. Never the less he threw for more than 3000 yards 4 of the 8 years he was a starter at QB (one of those seasons was shortened by a player strike as well), 6 out of 8 years he had as many or more TD than Ints. He took the team to three consecutive NFC Championship games and he handled the punting duties as well as QB duties for close to 10 years before Dallas finally got Mike Saxon.
    Daryl "Moose" Johnson, Johnson was such a popular player that even at away games the entire stadium would yell MOOSE every time he touched the ball. He was a fantastic blocker for Emmitt but he could also catch and excelled at short yardage running himself.
    Ken Norton Jr, Norton was the anchor at the heart of the defense that won three Super Bowls in the 90s and was one of the best middle linebackers in football in his prime IMO.

      I believe your belief and if anybody doubts it ask Troy Aikman, he said Allen would just crush pro bowlers. Other teams players would have their guys getting embarrassed and they would look at their teammates and say what do I do, they would shake their head and say ,we know man. It wasn't uncommon for Allen to come off a first block and lock up a linebacker and drive him 10, 15, or 20 yards down the field. If you had 5 Larry Allen's, you wouldn't need receivers, just extra running backs. The Cowboys rushed for 867 yards today....

      @@randycrocker5908 yeah not just Troy you could ask HOFers that lined up against him. They said he would tell them that the run was coming behind him. Then he would blow them off the line. Amazing. Plus he was fast enough to be the pulling guard. Just amazing his physical talents.

    Not often will I agree with these lists, but this one rings pretty true. There is film out there of Bob Lilly HURDLING a lineman and then chasing down OJ Simpson for the tackle... when he was old and OJ was young. Lilly was an outrageously impressive presence on the football field.

    • @gregroscoe4051
      @gregroscoe4051 4 роки тому +1

      but Randy White was even better! Lilly gets the nod because he was the original. But in the NFL circles, White was the best player at that position, better than Lilly, Green, Olson, etc.

    I met Bob Lilly while on a sponsored Deer Hunt in Marfa, TX. This was during his playing period and long before steroids and 300+ pound refrigerator/players in the NFL. Bob was the largest man I had ever met and had the largest hands of any human I had ever seen. That said, Bob was sized proportionately and you didn't notice how big he was until you got closer. He was also one of the nicest men I had ever met and demonstrated no ego whatsoever. Good quail shooter too.

      Hayes completely changed the game, but I'm trying to think of a time he came up big in the NFC Championship or Super Bowl. Even in the Ice Bowl, he made the mistake of keeping his hands in his pockets, on non passing plays, which clued the defense that the coming play was a run.

    Yes the coach is #1 since it was his system, he was the offensive and defensive coach as well AND he called the plays , the players were replaceable, it was the system.
    Roger Staubach offered NOT to retire if he could call his own plays, coach said NO it is a system and guess what after once the best Quarter backs in NFL history stepped down the cowboys did exceptionally great in the playoffs three years straight without him.
