I went with the worst loss in Cowboys' history yesterday, so I figured I'd better find a Cowboys blowout to balance things. Let's go with the 37-7 rout in the first round of the 1977 playoffs. The Doomsday Defense began its dominant Super Bowl run by putting the clamps on Walter Payton and Co. Strong safety Charlie Waters had perhaps the best game of his fine career, picking off three passes and forcing a fumble. D.D. Lewis set up touchdowns with an interception return and a fumble return. "It's great," linebacker Thomas "Hollywood" Henderson said. "What I plan to do is to go out tonight and party. And then I'll forget it." |

Sweet memories of that game Tim, thanks. Really the only game I recall where Payton was shut down. What fun it was to watch Payton run, even more fun when we put the clamps on him that day.

I always remember Frank Glieber's call after Dorsett scored "What can you say, it's just complete utter domination"
Sweetness held to 65 yards rushing!
