The last-second heroics in the Cowboys vs. Giants' 2015 Sunday Night opener deserve a deep rewind

- Опубликовано: 1 сен 2023
- This game could’ve broken wide open in either direction. Each team has made its share of mistakes, but never enough to kill hope in this moment. For Dallas, the hope is they’ve finally assembled a team that’s complete enough to compete when it matters most. With New York, if they hang on here, it can be the start they need to find stability.
And for 9 and 82, tonight marks their 13th year together, it’s the first step towards changing their legacies, and it’s a chance to maybe do their thing once again. Welcome to a moment in history.

Death, Taxes & the Cowboys & Giants playing on Sunday Night Football are the only things that are certain in life.
Almost as much a certainty as the Giants getting destroyed by Witten. Ugh
Please don’t kill my ‘The NFL is back’ high
And the Cowboys end up beating them lmfaoo
#Giants
@@FrigidevilNot in the playoffs tho 😬
Man what an a franchise altering moment, physically holding back the owner from throwing a 1st round pick in the trash, and instead drafting one of the best guards we've ever seen. Nice work Stephen
Except that while it was indeed a great decision, I'm not sure it altered the franchise.
@@stevencooke6451they haven't won anything yet, but it's clear the cowboys are one of the better teams when it comes to drafting and developing talent, and the shift from Jerry's occasional hits like DeMarcus Ware or Witten to Will McClay and Co's eye for talent is very obvious
The cowboys are my team and I agree with this comment. Not franchise altering. We still haven’t won lol.
@@dnysgrl22I think he more so meant franchise altering in the sense that the alternative could have been catastrophic. Avoiding Manziel is the point
This throw from Romo was the last 4th quarter snap he ever took in AT&T Stadium.
That doesn't sound right? He played the rest of the season I thought. His career-ending injury happened the next preseason
Romo was injured the next week in Philly and was sidelined for roughly 10 weeks. Tried to play on Thanksgiving against Philly but got injured again and didn’t do much for the rest of the 2015 season
@jacksonbarnard7422 yea I just went thru the game stats for that season. Romo gets sacked the next week against Philly, then weeden played the rest of the game.
2011-2014 was.my favorite era of Cowboys football
@@cloudmaster182 Brandon Weeden, Matt Cassel and Kellen Moore. A true trilogy of nightmarish backup QB play.
@@SportsGhost I am vaguely remembering that season now. I must've repressed it
The fact that Romo lost the snap and was able to pick it up and throw a dart, is absolutely incredible to me. What a legend. I will forever remember some of these moments. 🎉
Thank you for covering this.
My thoughts exactly 🔥🔥
"When Dez had a shot at playing the hero, despite these feet being in bounds and this looking a lot like a football move, that's not a catch. And if you think it is, well, the support group meets on Tuesdays."
I've been attending that support group for years and I'm still not over it.
A connection like Romo and Witten was great to see. Just knew it was coming and couldn't stop it.
*in the regular season
Jason Witten doesn't get enough recognition for what he did on the Cowboys, not the flashiest but was always available and reliable.
Was never a cowboys fan but I always heard the lore of 3rd and Witten from all my friends who were fans…that guy is a dawg
Now I feel nostalgic for the days when Odell Beckham was on the New York Giants.
New Jersey Giants *
Why? They are a much better team now and have much better direction, they never won anything with the drama queen
@@rib620 because Eli was ass and defense was horrific he was dominant
the days when he was actually good
@@charliebaldanza7691 In 2015 Eli had 35 TDs and 14 INTs - is that ass??
The Giants were 6-10, nothing to be nostalgic about. The aging drama queen is now the Ravens headache
But hey, why does the team's record matter? Let's all be nostalgic for a grown man peeing like a dog in the endzone lol
More Romo content, as a Cowboys fan he was so fun to watch even if he didn't have the best playoff record.
This video was a tear jerker as a cowboys fan knowing what could have been. It’s hard to believe this was basically the last game of the romo era
I was tailgating with my family outside the stadium that night. When Witten scored we went absolutely crazy with other random fans watching our tv. Lol. Great memory
Me and my dad probably was there lmao. That was the only tailgate for the NFL he and I ever did lol. This was after I got out the Marines and I remember the day somewhat lol 😂
Johnny Manziel as a Cowboy would’ve been a very interesting timeline.
Arguably could’ve been better for his career since he wouldn’t have been expected to start for at least a full season, maybe even two or three.
@@trumpetking11 Dak is better so I'm happy
As a cowboys fan I’m glad we drafted zack Martin instead
For like 6 months lol
@@chuyozuna2398did you feel like that during the draft
As a long dissatisfied/disappointed cowboys fan…I love videos like this. Keep it up 🎉
ngl the dez bryant one was a catch but as an eagles fan i am happy to leave it as “hmmmm yeah looks like the scoreboard says otherwise.”
I watched this game in a hotel room with my family while on a vacation trip to Orlando. I was a 14 old Cowboys fan at the time and that final play made me LOSE MY MIND, so much so that I started screaming.
As it was late, we got a call from the front desk politely asking us to shut up 😂
i was 8 my man im 16 now its crazy looking back how fast time has flew im on my 2nd to last year in highschool and still waiting for that chip
I was also 14 and laying in bed getting ready to sleep cuz i had school the next day. For most of the game I was fully prepared to go in the next morning and get made fun of for the loss and have to defend this team once again. That final play made my entire week, before the season spiraled not long after when Romo got hurt.
Damn I was 19
@@jesusquezada1276 time does fly, indeed. Since then I finished high school, got into uni, dropped out, tried to get back in but this time away from home, and now I'm 23 right at the end of my third semester of med school. I can barely keep up with football nowadays, but the good times still remain
@@Bruce_M00SE I too had to defend this team back in high school, but it was mostly during football practice. 2015 sucked real hard for us cowboys fans lol
Had no idea they were that close to drafting Manziel. Congrats to Stephen Jones for restraining his dad 😂
that Dez play still haunts me to this day. He caught it, we would’ve scored, we would’ve gone to the Super Bowl. I have no doubt
It haunts all of us :'(
Don’t know nothin about it before this, but that’s a gd catch
Idk if we would’ve beaten Seattle, I know we beat them early in the season that year but playoff football is a different atmosphere
I’m a pats fan and you guys got totally screwed
@@chuyozuna2398true, that win that year made me think we could have. especially with the year Demarco had we could’ve just ran it all over them rather than testing the Legion of Boom. either way that’s one thing i wish i could change about any Cowboy season. i would have loved to see that team given a chance
1991 World series deserves a rewind.
^^^^
I’ve been saying this for years lol it’s one of if not the greatest World Series ever played
Best World Series ever played, I may be biased as a Twins fan but no other series compares
As a nonbaseball fan who watches baseball deep rewinds, I agree because I have no clue what happened
@@plazmacube6167 i would say 2001, but 3 of Arizonas 4 wins wernt competitive.
OMG! I can't remember the last time Will narrated a video. You're tha man, Will, even if you like the Cowboys
It was back when they were using a beta max rewinder
hey it's will, i was scrolling comments to pull some for a presentation and came across yours, so just wanted to say a very belated thank you! that really means a lot
@@SecretBaseSBNYou got it, man! Keep on keeping on
Kinda copped out of admitting that by todays rules Dez would’ve caught it, but I guess that’s just another thing to bring up at support on Tuesday
Is there actual disagreement on this? Seems pretty clear that it wasn't a catch with the rules at the time and that it would be a catch with the current rules.
This game meant everything to me as a young cowboys fan (about to turn 16). Tony Romo was my childhood hero and this game really got him the praise he deserved. It’s sad it was short lived and this was his last great moment but I’ll always remember the joy this brought me with my dad and brother. Tony was an absolute warrior and he helped to teach me that sometimes in life you don’t get what you want or accomplish what you set out to and that’s ok. Sometimes great memories are the real prize
I really like these video series, great research and the catch frase "welcome to a moment in history" awesome!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you Tony for all the heart you gave on that field.
I remember watching that game, chewing my fingernails to the bone, and screaming my lungs out when Witten caught that pass. Romo definitely deserved more credit for what he did in the clutch.
clutch? he messed up when it matters most in playoff games. this is a rewind of a regular season game.
@richgreene5038 I think playoff clutch is completely different. He had a ton of regular season clutch but didn't always play well in the playoffs. Some guys are just like that. Hell, Peyton Manning had that stigma for a while until he finally won a Super Bowl.
After the 2014 Romo season, I had complete faith he was gonna lead them to a td drive. It really sucks he missed the year like he did 2015
So glad you didn’t spoil the video in the title. And awesome video. You’re good at what you do.
“I was reaching over the goal line” plays in my head constantly
Dikembe mutombo embracing the basketball after upsetting the #1 seed Seattle supersonic deserves a video
This is one if the most memorable games ive ever watched as a cowboys fan. Really took me back.
I've said it before, but I believe that Tony Romo will be inducted into the hall of fame. Witten, Smith, and Martin are no-doubters.
If donny mac isn’t going to the hall Tony sure as hell isn’t
With the other QBs competing in his generation, sadly Romo won't. Not enough seasons standing out of the crowd and not enough postseason success
My guy, Romo is probably going to the HOF as a commentator, not player.
Thanks for another great video. This is one of the best channels on RUclips, for sure! Would you consider doing a deep rewind about the 2007 National League Wild Card tiebreaker game? The 2007 Colorado Rockies had one of the greatest September stretch runs in MLB history. The tiebreaker game was very suspenseful and went into extra innings.
I always thought this would’ve been Romo’s year. The way he commanded the offense and examined the defense pre-snap in this game was beyond anything he had in done prior. I hate he got injured.
This drive just felt different, I remember it like yesterday. For years before, as a Cowboys fan, you didn’t always know how the game would end. Romo wasn’t as bad in the clutch as the narrative around him suggested, but he did have some high profile mistakes.
But this drive, you could just tell they were going to win. Romo looked honestly as comfortable & confident as he ever had.
I really think he was gonna hit another level at this point. That line was just too good for him not to. Sucks his career ended after the next game. Him with rookie Zeke woulda been incredible. Still think they shoulda went to him & benched Dak that year.
You should do a Rewind episode about another Dallas-Giants game: 2011 Week 14. With 2:25 left, and the ball on their own 25 (facing a 3rd and 5 and leading 34-29), Romo misses a wide open Miles Austin on a play that could have wrapped up the game. That play had major NFL ramifications going forward.
Please do a rewinder of Marlin Jackson's interception in the 2006 AFC Championship that sent the Colts to the Super Bowl!
Not even a Colts fan but please do this. That game actually mattered unlike this Cowboys Giants game here
Man absolutely love this channel. The details and the build up to the plays that we all have seen before, is absolutely brilliant. #DezCaughtIt !! Where is that Tuesday group again 😂😂😢😢😅😮
I will not sleep until we see a rewinder of Marc Aundre Fleury's last second save in the 2009 Stanley Cup Final in Game 7
Stephane Matteau Game 7 2OT
That 2015 Giants had so many opportunities, so many blown 4th quarter leads and the defense was the worst in the league. Eli had 35 TDs that was his last pro howl season.
In spite of Romo’s (entirely unfair) reputation as a “choker”, I always felt safe with the ball in his hands at the end of the game. Off the top of my head, I can only think of three games that ended with a Romo int: 2007 NFC divisional (desperation throw), 2011 vs Jets (legit bad throw), 2013 vs Broncos (got stepped on by his O-Line). And yet, you’d think every Cowboys loss was caused single-handedly by a Romo pick six the way the haters talked about him.
The truth is Romo saved the cowboys so many times that he effectively made those 8-8 teams into contenders all by himself. The 2015 comeback against the Giants was yet another signature moment from a great QB, and it was poetic that it came on a bobbled snap, the same thing that started all the choker talk in 2006. Everything had come full circle, this was the year.
As it turned out, it was his last hurrah... I still think about what 2015 and 2016 could’ve been with Romo at the helm. Those teams were tailor-made for him, made to build off the success of 2014. Add a super bowl ring to the team records he holds, and he’d easily be in the conversation as the greatest Cowboys QB of all time. From an undrafted kid that no one wanted to a World Champion. It could’ve happened. Sigh…
I remember watching this live...
Not happy y'all made me remember
I’d argued the mid 2010’s cowboys o line is one of the best in nfl history
And we all know what happened with the Cowboys the rest of the season.
I now know what an east coast offense means, thank you for your service, Jon
These reminders used to be alot better when they showed footage of the plays instead of graphs and charts
Jason Witten was behind so many Giants losses. I don't know why they couldn't stop that guy.
When Dak came in for an injured, Tony Romo, his rookie season that was the Cowboys Best chance to win a Super Bowl with that team. We really should’ve put Romo back in once healthy. Dak had no idea how to get Dez Bryant the ball.
As a (non-rabid) Giants fan, I felt genuinely okay with how this one ended. Hell, they earned it. Plus, ya know, they haven't hoisted a trophy since the '90s. Let 'em have some fun.
Can we appreciate the photos that they have in the background
Drafting Zach Martin instead of Johnny football worked out pretty well
Jose Bautista’s 3 run homer against the rangers in the alds deserves a deep rewind
This game is the sole reason in how i became a cowboys fan
I miss Romo so much, he was and always will be my favorite player. He took so much hate from everyone including Cowboys fans when he was literally the only reason the Cowboys were decent or good. He carried the Cowboys on his back for years. People love to say he was a choke artist yet obviously never watched all the games he won in clutch fashion just like this one. From 2006-2014 (years Romo was mostly healthy and played) he had more game winning drives than Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, and Big Ben. He also had some of the absolute worst defenses in NFL history as well as terrible offensive lines (which is why they finally drafted him one and the Cowboys were able to make a run in 2014). If you gave Romo the Cowboys teams Dak has had during his career, Romo would probably have a Superbowl ring (especially with the defense the Cowboys have now). He made mediocre or bad receivers look good and was one of the best scramblers ever. Romo was like a magician, I’ll never forget that spin move on prime JJ Watt ending in a TD bomb. Dude was running for his life so many years he would make plays out of nothing. Romo deserved better and in my opinion is the best QB in DAL history.
Amen.
Ultimately this moment didn't culminate into anything. Romo got hurt the next game, the cowboys stumbled to a 4-12 record, drafted Ezekiel Elliot in the first round, and Dak Prescott in the fourth. Romo got hurt again in the preseason and Dak hasn't let go of the reigns yet. Since 2015 the Cowboys have had just 1 losing season under Dak Prescott, yet no divisional round wins
I’m a lifelong Bears fan so I know people will call me a Packer hater but if you don’t think Dez caught that ball… I mean come on.
I wish you guys did more hockey moments
We need a rewinder on the 2013 Stanley cup final
Kansas vs. Memphis. 2008 National Championship. Mario's Miracle deserves a Deep Rewind.
I remember watching this since school had just started
i would love a rewind of how 13 seconds led to one of the greatest games to watch in history. Chiefs vs Bills.
I’d love to see a rewind of the 2021 playoff game between the Cowboys and the 49ers. It’s a historic rivalry with each team knocking the other out of the playoffs multiple times over the years, and that game came down to the final Cowboys drive, and time running out before Dak could take a shot at the end zone. So chaotic and unexpected, I’d love to hear your commentary on it.
It just happened bro, maybe wait like 5 years? Thanks
@@Shmuel420 The 1992 game and Alvin Harper’s slant is more worth of a rewind
Dibu Martínez 120th minute save and penalty shootout deserves a rewind eventually
La remontada definitely deserves a rewind.
This game absolutely does not deserve a rewinder.
Dez caught it
I think Manziel to Dallas would have been a good idea - Johnny could have sat behind Tony Romo one or two seasons and matured a little. Had the spotlight off of him. But as an Eagles fan, I'm glad it worked out the way it did.
Eli Manning - the worst QB to win multiple Super Bowls.
Tony Romo - the best QB to never make it past the divisional round of the playoffs.
I knew what was gonna happen based on the framing, but I was definitely still rooting against the Cowboys.
Great video as we all continue boarding the 2023 season hype train.
The bluegrass miracle deserves a rewind
I just wanted to say “Hi, I hope you’re having an amazing day!”
you forgot to mention Unga was covering Witten during that play which was Unga's first career start. other than that, Unga played good that game, he even recorded his first career interception against Romo in this game. Its more lore to this game on the Giants side too.
Let’s not forget that this was the 1st year where they pushed the extra point back as well as Eli telling his RB NOT to score on that last NYG drive.
i remeber watching this game but i forgot the ending so this was great
Demarco Murray is really underappreciated. Even before Henry took over for the titans, Murray was producing. I was surprised how fast he was out of league after :(
Jerry kinda started this wave of not paying running backs if you think about it. It feels like this started with Demarco.
That was really well done.
I'm a Giants fan, but I loved Jason Witten, he was such a good player.
I remember watching this game.
This was my first year of playing fantasy football and I needed this exact play as my only chance of winning. I won in epic comeback fashion and it’s been all downhill ever since 😅
Remember when it was Romo who took the trip to Cabo the week of a playoff game. Now people think of the giants when that comes up.
Need a deep rewind for the Martinez’s last-second save in the World Cup Final ! 🙌🏼
2016 national championship needs a rewind
Djokovic’s Wimbledon comeback vs Federer in 2019 deserves a rewind
I will not rest until I see rewinder for the St. Louis blues stably cup
Tony Romo was masterfull comin off his best year 2014 he was only gettin better, if he didnt get hurt that next week dallas was gonna make another playoff run
Dude can golf.
This game and this season hurts so much as a Cowboys fan. If only Romo stayed healthy this season. I think the team could have honestly had another good year and potentially finally broken through and won in the divisional round. But it wasn't meant to be and Tony got hurt against the Eagles very soon after this game. And then we were subjected to Brandon Weeden and Matt Cassell for the majority of the rest of the season. Yuck.

Romos last hurrah... Wasn't supposed to be but it was....😢
Omg this was my first game I ever went to, it was amazing.
It’s crazy to me that Dallas got a hall of Famer thanks to Stephen jones tackling his own dad on draft day
This was an entertaining game between two bad teams.
This was the game that got me into football and made me a true giants fan. God I wish I could go back and change my choice lmao
As a life king Giants fan from a family of Giants fans. We wouldn’t have been mad if you abandoned ship. It was bad for over a decade. Joe Judge was truly the icing on the cake. I hated that man the day they hired him and he held that god awful press conference.
Why you gotta do Jerry like that. Just because he impersonates palpatine you don't gotta throw shade like that
I live in arlington and this is iconic there
Remember watching this game live and it was the most exciting part of an otherwise disappointing season for Dallas.
Now do a deep dive on RW McQuarters pick in the end zone in the 2007 divisional playoffs....thrown by Romo!!
Greatest sport in the world
Turns out Zack Martin was the right pick, though. Even if Manziel had done better in Dallas, it'd be hard for him to beat Zack Martin, who has made All-Pro 8 out of 9 years in the NFL, 6 of them First Team. That's a home run pick even if it were #1 overall - at #16, it's one of the best draft selections ever made.
I didn’t realize Jerry Jones was the emperor of the galactic empire until this video
I still can’t believe we started 2-0 just for Romo to get hurt and derail the whole season 😢 that 14-16 stretch should’ve been his for him to get his jewelry.
He caught it. See ya on Tuesday.
