- Okay youtube screwed up this was supposed to go up in November but it goes up today. I'll just have to change the game I was going to put in November up. Anyway enjoy this classic.
THANK YOU so much for posting this game. My son was born just as Drew Pearson #88 crossed that goal line for the winning touchdown. How do I know ?? The doctor had a TV rigged up in the delivery room, (I think he stole it out of the waiting room). GO DALLAS !!! Love you Richard Gilbert 11.28.74 , The Mom :) PS: Thank you also to Clint Longley #19
When Longley, wearing No. 19, entered the huddle, running back Walt Garrison reportedly said to him, "Remember, Clint, we're the ones in white."Dec 4, 1994
I was 11 at the time and watched this entire game Thanksgiving Day with my Dad. One of my happiest memories of growing up in the 1970’s watching this game with my Dad as we bonded over our love of football.
Same age same situation. I played little league football for cowboys they been my team every since.
I was 16 yrs old at that time. I watched the first half of that game and the one thing about the Cowboys, they ALWAYS a Thanksgiving day favorite team to watch on TV because you knew the game was going to very competitive. I had to leave just prior to half time because I had a Seattle Times paper route to do, but I did hear about the BIG play and the performance of Rookie QB Clint Longley. That was back in the day when football was FOOTBALL !!
The "long and bright future" of Clint Longley never materialized, but he did have that one magical Thanksgiving in 1974.
I like how Duane Thomas scored a couple touchdowns and one of the last passes Bob Hayes ever caught was a 7-yarder on 4th down to set up the 50 yard bomb to Pearson.
I loved watching “Bullet” Bob Hayes back in the day. Even Lance Alworth and Mike Ditka when they came over at the end of their careers were fun to see on the Cowboys.
I was watching this game with my family and talking on a land line telephone with a die hard redskins fan that I was in junior high school with. I dreaded the next school day if the boys lost to them but longley saved the day and my friend started crying on the other end of the phone but prior to that he gave me hell the whole game
Best ever Thanksgiving Day Classic football game.

There are alot of cowboy players that should be in the Hall of Fame!!!!!
The game when I became a Cowboys fan!
I remember it like it was yesterday!
This what made NFL GAME OF THE WEEK, with the narration and music. Also, not a bad game either.
The best ever game by the Dallas Cowboys was this 1974 Thanksgiving classic.
What great memories!! Look in the background for CBS Sports Signs...The Cowboys were truly America's Team...The whole Football Nation was watching this game at 4:00 PM Eastern and 1PM on the West.Thats where I was.No Basketball..No Hockey, No College Football.. Just the Cowboys/ Redskins..
so i glad i was able to watch these babies back in the day every sunday before the games started
nothing like this now
Clint Longley really rose to the occasion on that Thanksgiving in 1974. I cannot see how Drew Pearson is not in the Hall of Fame. He is one of the most reliably clutch receivers in the history of the NFL.
He is now
@@classicsports5057 Thanks for letting me know. I looked it up when I saw your reply. I was pleasantly shocked. Drew certainly deserves the recognition!
Big time. Drew Pearson is one of the most clutch wide outs in the history of the game. I remember watching that tough playoff game In Minnesota beck in 1975. When Drew caught that Hail Mary pass, he heaved the ball high into the crowd as if to say “take that” to all the hecklers.
Blaine Nye, long time Cowboy OG and a Stanford grad, said that Longley's success could be attributed to "the triumph of the uncluttered mind." Looks like that long and bright future did not work out for ol' Clint....
I had forgotten that this was Duane Thomas' return to Dallas. Great player, strange dude. That is Joe Theismann knocking Barnes out of bounds 4:27.
Diron Talbert is my grandfather he’s on there playing on redskins
This is the Clint Longley game.Cowboys won but 1974 was the only season Dallas didn't make playoffs though they had a winning record.1966 to 1983 every year playoff team except this one and they were the only NFC team to win a SB in the 70's appearing in 5 winning 2 SB6 & SB12!
66 to 85,
9 rookies from 1973 plus 13 more rookies in 1974 was definitely a transitional phase for the team. Dallas struck gold with their "Dirty Dozen" draft the next year in 1975
That Eagles game earlier in the season really changed the season. Doug Dennison’s fumbled on the Eagles’ goal line, which ending up the Eagle recovering scoring a 99 yards TD return, it was like a gut punch, sending the Cowboys on a losing streak.
Wow I didn't know that , thanks for the useless info.
Clint Longley you're the man for 20 minutes haha
That was his claim to fame
NFL FILMS WAS SOOOOO GOOD BACK THEN
I was 9 years old watching this game at my grandparents on turkey day been a skin's fan for 50 years and im 55 and I still can't get over this game 😢 lol true I was devastated and didn't eat any turkey
I know you've long forgotten posting this, but I was right there with you, brother. I was 11 and watched this on our old B&W TV. I couldn't believe it. I doubt that it kept me from eating turkey that day, but it certainly dampened the mood. I was a Redskins fan since 1971 (shocked when they came out with that "new" helmet for the '72 season), but I've pretty much given up on the modern game of showboating and protests, and though I am a Virginian, I feel no connection with the Commanders; thus, I "was" a Redskins fan. Long gone are the days of RFK stadium and its being perpetually sold out. Hail to the Redskins, hail victory.... Hope life has been good to you.
We were there, oh what a thriller!
I went to the game 2 wks earlier at RFK. The Redskins held on to beat Dallas 28-21. This loss on Thanksgiving Day was demoralizing.
Great upload!
Clint Longley is just a trivia question today. Ego can and will destroy anyone.
~~ been a lot of those footnote players in NFL history - Washington had one at the Super Bowl in early 1988 - RB Timmy Smith - who rushed for over 200 yds in SB 22 against Denver - a SB record that stands to this day - but he quickly faded away after that game ..
Daryl Lamonica was the original “Mad Bomber” for the mighty Oakland Raiders but for one incredible game, Clint Longley earned that nickname as well.
What a shame that the Oakland Raiders and Dallas Cowboys never met in the Super Bowl. In 1977, if the officials had not screwed up in their no-call of a fumble by Denver’s Rob Lytle, the two great teams might have met in Super Bowl XII in new Orleans’ Superdome.
8:00 #55 Hanbuger trying to choke or strangle the opponent as usual haha.
Tom Landry, you know who was in command. The man was in his 60s and was in top shape.
It kept the Cowboys playoff hopes alive, for the moment. The Cowboys have lost 3 games in 1974 that they should have won.
Can You Please put Cowboys vs Steelers thanksgiving 1991 Please?
I may do that this year since this got posted earlier than I wanted it to. I was originally planning on doing that game for Thanksgiving 2020.
Their one version of Dallas/Pittsburgh Thanksgiving 91 on RUclips already
And they will play again on thanksgiving day this thursday.
4:05 SUPRISE SUPRISE That's Punt Returner #7 Joe Thiesman on the Big Tackle 💪🏈💪😲
10:45 Great Billy Kilmer to Charley Taylor play
11:40 The Great Roy Jefferson
11:47 Former Cowboy Duane Thomas revenge
Classic game and close one
I was nine years old at the time and watched this game at my godparents house in Modesto.
18:45 How do you not double on Pearson?
They did double Drew on that touchdown. Drew split the two Redskin defenders.
Just think man coverage from the line of scrimmage no 8 back at the goal line in deep prevent boy how times have changed
The Skins are 1-8 lifetime in Dallas on Thanksgiving Day.
The Mad Bomber. Clint Longley all they have left is that "rookie "
The Clint Longley Game!
Who's the Redskin at the 18 minute mark
martin imhoff
Man Irving traffic is never liked that!!!
Strange seeing someone else wearing 44 for the skins.
"The Talbert Plan'...Diron Talbert won as many SB rings as me...none.
A lot of big names on both teams!
Is the full telecast of this game available anywhere?
Nope. VCRs weren't introduced for about a year.
Unfortunately, this turned out to be a classic case of "win the battle, lose the war." Dallas won this game, finished 8-6, and still missed the playoffs.
Clint Longley's career was over when he sucker-punched Staubach.
Not really , when Danny White joined the team in 1976 he was eventually going to be out the door
@3:55- 3:59 Chris Hanburger with his trademark tackle, a brutal forearm to the head as he nails Staubach .
Hamburger 🍔
Theismann returning punts in this game
argos!
Early break dancing at 19:15.
Longley didn't even knew the game plan he just threw bombs
This play still bugs me....REDSKINS FOREVER
The 1974 season was over for Dallas by week 5. This game would not change their playoff outlook.
They needed Washington and St. Louis to both lose out which wasn't gonna happen. Dallas lost to the Raiders also but that game didn't matter at that point.
They started 1-4 it was too tough to make the playoffs from there on
In week 5 they lost to the Cardinals 31-28 that was a backbreaker for the rest of the season
If Harold Carmichael can be in the HOF then why not Billy Joe DuPree?
Carmichael had 5000 more yards and nearly 40 more TDs and better ypc numbers.
@@classicsports5057 Billy Joe DuPree (22 playoff games - 13 wins). Harold Carmichael (7 playoff games - 3 wins). Just saying.
@@drbonesshow1 Carmichael's playoff numbers 29 catches 465 yards 6 TDs. Dupree's playoff numbers 39 catches 447 yards 5 TDs. Advantage Carmichael.
It's a shame Clint Longley wouldn't get along with Roger. He might could have taken the reins a lot more competently than Danny White after Roger Staubach retired.
Clint was a punk. Danny white took the cowboys to several nfc championships and lost not to his own fault
19:15 😳 Wow. Why don’t the cheerleaders celebrate like THIS anymore!!??
The Deadskins
final season for jurgensen deacon jones lilly green thomas robinson
Don't forget Bob Hayes.
Deacon Jones kicked an extra point in his last ever game Redskins 42 0 win over Bears last game of 1974 season
Ned Flanders was at the game: 18:28
Duane Thomas is shown to be completely inept for the Redskins. What a fall and what a nut job.
Dallas. Got lucky
No way that team could beat the beast of the East our cheerleaders could beat Dallas.. Only thing we couldn’t beat was oil money paid to the referees..That team wouldn’t win a game if they didn’t buy wins and Cliff Longley got a perm and was cut for hanging in the showers the nut gazer Hail to The Redskins
Redskins were a disgrace every time they laced 'em up. What a sorry bunch of has been losers. Hahahaha!!!!
Just Cum out of the "closet" Now !! ATM WORSHIPPER !
The Cowboys needed to get Dorsett more involved, and Randy White was non-existent in this game?
Dorsett was in Pittsburgh, Randy White was in Maryland. They were both in college.
DICK TRICKLE lmao
Randy White was one year away Tony Dorsett was 3 years away
This statement shows you folks how much this DICK TRICKLE guy knows about football history... probably some young dude trying to impress us with his lack of historical sports sense!
