- HUGE UPGRADE here. A day after posting my initial 1977 Giants/Cowboys 'improvement' (which still had major issues because it was a pretty subpar recording), I became privy to a MUCH better source copy, which I took and did my usual enhancement procedures on. You can see the before and after shots from this new source here -- imgbox.com/g/DPCfZJ89rL -- With this vastly superior ENHANCEMENT now posted, I have removed the inferior version from my channel.
HUGE UPGRADE here. A day after posting my initial 1977 Giants/Cowboys 'improvement' (which still had major issues because it was a pretty subpar recording), I became privy to a MUCH better source copy, which I took and did my usual enhancement procedures on. The color is SO much better on this one and there was no videotape noise along the top, and no hiss to the audio this time around - just a MUCH cleaner source, which makes a world of difference in the end result. The commercials weren't cut out in this version, but the game still ends at the exact same spot midway through the 4th quarter.

Always top notch post from you. Best quality games and not edited like most others
Thank you!
The commercials are a time capsule!
Appreciate the game recaps at the end

I get more enjoyment watching these games than the present Cowboys.... honestly to me it's like it's live!!! Thanks Dave Volsky!!!!!
Roger leading high powered offense with Doomsday Defense what a time loved every year 👏
Brad Van Pelt lived around the corner from me when I was a kid.
Good guy, gave out full size Hershey bars for Halloween.
I became a Cowboys fan in 1977 watching these games, it's great to see them again. Thank you for posting!
Me too. 1977 was the year it all began for me
Ended with a ring
Keep 'em coming!!
Thank You! This was a magic season for Cowboys fans.
Seeing Roger throwing and running sure reminds me of my younger years ,time goes by so fast .love my cowboys since I was 8 years old 1969 been a fan since ,my favorite players are from this era Roger, Drew, Tony D ,Robert Newhouse and Billy Joe, golden
Same here. I had a picture of Bob Lilly on my door as a kid back then. I love watching these old games.
I always gravitated to Preston Pearson after Capt. Roger, but LOVED them all!
@@romelovesdan he was the star in championship game destruction of the rams coming out of the back field 1st running back that ever did this he had like 120 yards receiving plus 2 touchdowns great player for sure.
@@luckynedpepper9030 that's cool I had a poster of Roger Staubach and John Wayne life size posters my brothers used too laugh they had bo Derek running in her bikini . Lol 😆 good times
@@sunshinegarcia3866 He sure was----Out of anyone/any number I could have chosen, I still have my #26 replica jersey.
These upgrades have been fabulous!! It feels like going back into a time machine and watching the games for the first time. Thank you Dave!!🙋🏈💯
That may never be duplicated again. A team that can have 12 rookies on a team and still make the Super Bowl and win it. That says a lot about how good Tom Landry and his entire staff and the GM were. Doesn't hurt to have the foundation they already had developed to groom those rookies to be at their best. Size along with speed, Dallas was ahead of their time. I often wonder had Parcells been the Giants coach going against Landrys Cowboys of the 1970s how soon before the Giants even the playing field. I remember when Scott Brunner was the Giants QB, because Simm struggled to stay healthy in his early years.
They had a lead in the fourth quarter of SB 10 and could have won it. Wow.
Giants had Parcells, the Cheater Belichick, and Lawrence Taylor, Carl Banks, etc. Everson Walls from the Cowboys was even playing for Parcells by 1990. I think those Giants were to physical for any of Landry's teams, as were Gibbs Washington teams and Ryan's Eagle teams. Landry couldn't hang with any of those coachrs and teams. It's why when the Cowboys were sold Jimmy Johnson was hired. The Cowboys most physical teams were under Jimmy Johnson. They were much more smash mouth on both sides of the ball rhan any of Landrys teams. Remember what they did twice to the KGun offense, which I don't think Landrys team could have stopped.
@@mm-gl7szRespectfully stating: You're wrong on so many levels. Dallas started declining once Staubach retired due to too many concussions,that and several supporting cast coaches and players left, along with their best scouts retiring & or left and finally after two last runs at the nfc titles were blown by Danny White and Landry's failed "prevent defense " and the 49er's catch. But what would I know, I've only followed them since 1965.
BTW: Unless you were wearing diapers at the time you might recall that player strike season? Landry's team had the best winning record during that holdout, and proved when it came to coaching HE WAS A GENIUS. And Buddy Ryan's birds against Landry's boys? Laughable! Gibbs on the other hand was good but more an equal during the time he lasted. Concerning Parcells, he used to question Landry for coaching tips as in how long do you rest your players, how many hours do you drill them etc. and said as much later when he coached Dallas in the early 2000's. Belicheck by the way when asked who he modeled his coaching style from answered LANDRY and the Cowboys, why? Because his dad worked for and with Landry & Dallas while he (Bill) was a sideline teenage water boy at Dallas. Overall, beyond Schula (?) Landry in the modern day NFL was one of the greatest there were. Did you know he helped develop the 4-3 defense while playing for the Giants? Lastly, there was good reason why the tag "dooms day defense " got that name, and that "KGun" offense you're referring to wouldn't have been a problem for that defense at their peak.
@@Rev22-21 Good things just simply don't last. Staubach was smart to retire. He went on to great success in real estate - many multiples of the financial success he had in the NFL. Same with many other Cowboys - Breunig, Drew Pearson, Howley (from an earlier period), Lee Roy Jordan... Too Tall tried boxing for a while. Things also become boring once you have achieved great success. The fact that Tom Brady won seven super bowls speaks to many things regarding playing circumstances and athleticism, but it primarily speaks to his being a very BORING person, with few other interests.
Thanks Dave watching my all time Favorite team ..The Cowboys..like it was 1977 again
Love how Pat and Tom just call the game. They don't go into every players life history and what their grandmother did in high school.
Gotta love the gratuitous cheerleader shots. Thought the boys in the booth were going to have to be hosed down. 😁
And to think that those same ladies could be grandmothers today.
Can't wait to see what you upload next. Thanks Dave.
I love these videos bringing me back in the past with nostalgia. Thanks a lot for posting !!!
This great video clearly shows the stupidity and result of terrible planning of the Texas Stadium roof.
Well… God needed to see his son play QB.
Darn Tootin' God needs to see his favorite team play! @@riggodrill
As a Bills fan I was ticked how the Bills had to stand in the sun for 4 quarters while the Dolphins were in the shade with fans all game in their stadium last year. Then when the Bills were all but passed out the Fin fans were gloating how they outplayed us. When they make these stadiums today you know they design it to benefit the home team over the road team. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out. I forgot how bad the sun to shade contrast was in these old school Dallas home games. The visitor always got the short end.
Ha. @@romelovesdan
I always thought this stadium would have been perfect with real turf/grass. and it is odd since they did not share this with a baseball or any team. Dallas folks would know but I think most other sports/soccer used the cotton bowl and real grass.
Thanks for posting . Get to see my hero Roger the Dodger .
God bless you Dave Volsky!! Thanks so much for these delightful trips down memory lane. Boy the league was fun for 14 year old me!
Great video! Thanks for posting. Great seeing one of the best, if THE Best Dallas Cowboys teams ever. The Giants had pretty good Defense, not a very good offense. The late Troy Archer is a great view as well. He would die in a tragic car accident a few years after this game. Roger Staubach was the gold standard for all NFL QB's. This game is some of the best evidence for that fact. Tom Landry also big plus in this video. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this! Love the classic tv commercials as well!
The Doomsday Defense.
Thank you so much! from my Giants articles dated 9/25,26/1977...it was so hot at Texas stadium that DE Jack Gregory lost 13 pounds, DT John Mendenhall 15 lbs, DT Troy Archer 17 lbs, DE Gary Jeter 12 lbs...players from both sides wrapped arms/legs up so little skin would be exposed, yet some got burns from the turf. Dallas writers before the game called the Giants the NY Pygmies and commented that qb's Jerry Golsteyn "sounds like errol flynns lawyer" and backup (Joe) "Steve Picarcik looks like he could change the oil in my car " ...the Dallas writer finished with calling the Giants "Clownish and amateurs"...
The commercials bring back a lot of memories. I was 17 years old watching this game with my grandpa. Sad but great memories.
Great work Dave! The first game I remember was the SB this year, and it made me a childhood Cowboy fan...until I discovered a game changing QB down in Miami in 1984.
1977.
WHAT A YEAR!
BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, cars, music, movies, beer, SNL first cast, my mom and dad were alive, I had a car, and on top of all that:
THE CHAMPIONSHIP DALLAS COWBOYS!
🏆 🏆 🏆 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Landry is on record saying this was the best team he ever coached.
They just keep gettint better and better! Thanks Dave.
There's nothing better than seeing the greats Tom Landry and Roger Staubach.
Thanks Dave, you're making this old man very happy with these classic games!!!😊
Dave your like a time machine mate that I can travel back to see greatest era of NFL ,thank you for the memories Sir...
OK---Now we have the definitive edition of this one. Thanks for keeping the "extras" tacked onto the end of the video. Folks hungry for more can seek out the 23 minute highlight program featured in the NFL Game of the Week series, 1977 week 2.
Lol! I missed the awful 70’s Giants.
Started watching them in 1984 when they were just getting good.
My dad told me all about those horrible teams.
Then I got to live them myself from 2013-2015 & 2017-2021. Hopefully those days are behind us
they are behind us...I lived the 1964-81, recalling 1968ish onwards ...and it was tough, but I never gave up hope. SB 21 will always be the something that I cannot describe the feeling. ...you thought back to 1973 and a 6-0 preseason with pundits picking them to win the east...only to go 2-11-1....then 4 straight losses in the last seconds/OT killed 1974 leading to a 2-12 record when they could have been 7-7 or 6-8...or you thought about the 0-9 start in 1976,,..losing to these Cowboys 9-3!...holding the Cowboys to no TD's yet you lose?!....then the following week lose to the Eagles 10-0 in heavy rain @ Giants stadium....then you thought about this dumb game from 1977 when no end was in sight and the Cowboys destroyed us...or the infamous stupid fumble game when all he had to do was fall down 1978 vs the Eagles....at that point you thought they would never win a game they had won...then came George Young/Simms/LT and finally...SB 21. see, ..keep the faith. Giants vs Jets SB 58..been waiting 54 years for the rematch from the Yale bowl 1969...
@@RussBeatle63 I agree. With Schoen & Brown in the front office and our coaching staff led by Daboll, I feel brighter days are ahead!
My dad used to go to The Yale Bowl with my grandfather back in 1973-1974 and told me how awful those teams were.
He, like you, really found SB XXI to be extra special. And told me “Kid, enjoy this. You don’t know if you’ll ever see it again.”
I was lucky enough to see 3 more after that, as was he.
Lost my dad 8 years ago, but I’ll always remember the times with him going to the games, and watching the games on TV.
I have my own son now (he’s still really young) and I’m hoping we get to enjoy some more Giants championships like my dad and I did
wow this looks great
The NFL today was a great show. Irv Cross was underrated. At half-time there was a great catch highlight by J.V. Cain who unfortunately would die in practice a year or so later.
Another great one Dave .Trying to catch up .the cowboys had the no1 offense and no1 defense in 1977
Larry Csonka can be seen in this game, as he decided to be w Bill Arnsparger, formerly of Miami. Sadly, he was a shadow of his former self by then. He also did not have the benefit of playing behind Kuechenberg, Little and Langer who would share seventeen pro bowls and nine all-pro nods between them. Norm Evans [RT], while eclipsed by the inside three had picked up two pro bowl selections during the Dolphins heydays. He did have a last hurrah in '79 where he gained 837 yards and scored 12 TD's. o
Aw man pleas continue the great work!!
Thanks for the upload
Growing up in the NYC suburbs in the 1970’s, we suffered with the Jets and Giants.
11:04 That Zenith commercial featured a profession that no longer exists: TV repairman. Actually, I think they were pretty much gone the way of the Dodo by 1977. Remember when a TV came in a big wood cabinet?
Thank you for this
Good video enjoying your channel with every game thank you those old commercials are good memories also ….
I was at that game...my very first Cowboys game. Can't believe you have it here, thanks so much!!
Awesome, thanks!
Love the 70s Cowboys!!
Notable here are the arrow markers on the field. The Cowboys were the second NFL team to have them on the field (the Chiefs were the first with the opening of Arrowhead Stadium in 1972). The NFL had such on the field for Super Bowl XII in January 1978 and beginning with the following season, every NFL team had them and have had them on NFL fields since.
College football eventually followed suit. I think Notre Dame added them in 1982, my freshman year.
@@johnmanier7968That's about right. Some schools didn't add them until later I think in part because they didn't want to be looking as "following the NFL," especially given then many religious groups looked at college sports as "pure" and associated pro sports with gambling.
I do wish at some point the Giants would use for throwbacks this late 1970's version of the Giants uniforms. They were bad then but these were the best version of those uniforms.
No
These Giants uniforms are great!
Epic visuals of the shadows and sun glare. Must have been hard for the players. Miss it as a viewer. Always found it interesting. Also forgot about the royal blue end-zones and walls. Miss those as well.
Respetos a un aficionado de los 49ers pasar estos videos tank yuo go Cowboys
Splendid 👍👍
With the commercials it's like jumping in a time machine. Feel like I'm watching it on the couch in 1977. Really dope👍🏽👏🏽 Keep'em comin.
Less than two years later, Troy Archer would die in an auto accident during training camp. A real shame, he had potential.
Yeah they were touting Archer so much in the beginning of this game and I had never heard of him. Looked him up and was shocked.
Ahhh, I just finished watching the other one last night! I should have waited a day!
Sorry man. Hey at least you only have to WATCH it twice. I had to WORK on it twice :)
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673 It’s all good. Keep the games coming!
Worthy of a repeat
The Voice Of God, Bob Sheppard, Was The PA Announcer For This Game.
Had to watch these horrible Giants teams from the mid Seventies onward, because we only got the CBS affiliate in Northern Vermont growing up. We could not get the NBC affiliate (though CTV 12 in Montreal occasionally broadcast Steelers games). Had to deal with these teams, which made us all Cowboys fans by default, since we saw them all the time. This Cowboy team was one of the best, and had the most amazing depth at all positions. Dorsett was a rookie, Preston Pearson, Robert Newhouse, Scott Laidlaw, Doug Dennison...you don't get that anymore. Receivers, too, Drew Pearson, Golden Richards, Butch Johnson and a young Tony Hill. Defensively, same thing, before we knew what a depth chart was. Staubach of course was everyone's favorite QB up here; just a great player and competitor, and also a genuinely nice man to all accounts. That said, NFL Today was what we grew up with...Musberger, George and Cross had excellent chemistry, along with Jimmy the Greek. I did not care for the musical segments, but other than a fine show, and I loved those throwback scoring screens. Thank you for posting these up!
Also, loved the commercials
Awesome sauce from l.a ca. Nice work
Watch how Jeter gives staubach a forearm shiver across the face well after the play on the 2nd scoring play! And then he put his hands up haha. Ah the 70s
Incredible Dave, absolutely incredible. Are you able to enhance (or maybe it is already on the menu) the Eagles at Cowboys game from December 1977?
Thanks Rog. I do have a copy of that game to work on hopefully at some point.
Back then, it was a totally different game than today’s NFL…today, tackling the opposing QB is a 15 yard penalty, the refs don’t know what pass interference is, the NFL recently defined what a reception is, but, Not For Long…
I left Plano in 1976 and moved to Kansas City. I've never given up on my Cowboys, even when Jerry Jones dismissed Landry w/o the respect he deserved.
The good old days when you get depend on having your players for at least 10 years on the same team
Jerry Goldsteyn was a legend. Dont remember the Roger guy that much.
I remember this year... Steelers had a 2 years run of injuries.. which gave the raiders and cowboys a Superbowl...
Didn't know Larry Csonka played for the Giants. Some highlight video of him said that Csonka had at least a carry of 5 yards in every game he played.
Do you have Steelers vs bengals from 1977 in it’s full capacity.
No, just the partial.
At 28:16 Tom B. Is checking out the beautiful Cowboys cheerleaders and the next thought is the consumption of burritos and " tough " night he had...HA AH HA....what a dope😅 much love for Tom Brookshier tho...
RIP Gil Brandt
RIP Doug Kotar.
Was the giants running the ball on 3rd and 10????????????????
Watching a ton of these ancient games on youtube. Even the great teams like the Steelers and the Cowboys didn't seem to care that much about turning over the ball. So many turnovers back then.
Nothing like watching the Cowboys kick the shirt out of anyone in the NFL
Randy White best player on the field
Used to date his little sis.
Csonka got paid NYC money, but the talent on that team didn't step up to match his skills.
Texas Stadium was a barn ......pidgin fly around....
The Giants were such a dumpster fire at this point.
The crowd was mostly quiet. Weird
Considering the performance level of the Giants back then, there wasn't much to get excited about; it would be as if the Cowboys were conducting an organized scrimmage against an assemblage of hodgepodge players.
The Giants really didn’t have a bad D-line and that was a super trio of linebackers. Mediocre elsewhere and obviously a good 5 years away from good coaching, but that defense wasn’t bad. Not much at QB for a long time though,
Jerry Goldstein and joe piscarik vs roger staubach giants had zero chance
Please provide the date or the week.
I almost always provide the Week in my pinned comment, but I neglected to this time. Was Week 2
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673 - Great. Thank you.
Sunday, September 25, 1977.
(You can easily find this info online).
@@HAL_9000__ - Sure, but it's difficult to find the information on the date without having the result spoiled by seeing the final score. The joy of listening to these games comes from not knowing the result. That's why it's best for the person who uploads the video to put that information in the video's title.
At 53:03.….it would be an understatement to say how popular Robert Blake was in the popular TV show " Baretta " .... unfortunately he stupidly killed his wife .
What a horrible way for the great Larry Csonka to end his career on a miserable giant team
Actually Csonka returned to the Dolphins for his last season in 1979 and rushed for 837 yards
Must be a giant fan
Let me guess....the Giants got crushed
You would have to go back to the 1974 season (a bad year for Dallas) when the lowly 1970's Giants actually beat the Cowboys in Dallas.
There was no more stronger hate for the Cowboys than this LA Rams fan had for them back in the 70s. I still hate the Cowboys just not as much because the NFL just isnt what it used to be.
19 frikin 77. 3 channels of sd to pick from 4 counting pbs
It wasn't known as 'SD' back then. It was just 'TV'. And there were more than 3 channels. You could have up to 13 channels on VHF and up to 69 on UHF. Of course there were NEVER that many channels transmitting on your dial, but there were easily at least 20 or 25 channels that you could pick up in some capacity.
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673depends on where you lived. In 1977, Dallas/Ft Worth had the three networks, PBS, and two independent stations. Maybe a Spanish station also.
Giants were pathetic in the 70's.
And this coming from a Giant fan, me, who became a fan around 1974
And you're pathetic now
@@eduardobalderas7273🗣️YEAH ! >🎤🏈

Yeah, they were pretty awful. When they finally made the playoffs in 1981, it was a life changing experience.
Thanks love these games, can't wait todays woke, staged games
Back when the NFL was played with REAL football players.
The NFL was fun before it went woke.
0:17 🥹 I passed that sign on my way to work and coming back everyday. It’s all gone now.
