Dallas Cowboys @ Cleveland Browns Kardiac Kids '79 Pt 2 of 3

[bucky468]

Just for curiosity, what the hell is a Sipe? Sounds like a type of sour grape or something.

[TheJayhawker101]

@bucky468 im a Sipe Brian Sipe is my cousin and i live in Kansas and i have a autographed card of Sipe

[bucky468]

@TheJayhawker101 My comment wasn't intended to be a hateful rant. The real question is what's in a last name. I have a weird last name too. Brian was an amazing QB & the Kardiac Kids probably inspired the 2011 St. Louis Cards & their never say die attitude.

[luvupokes]

This was not Thomas Henderson's last game; his last game was almost two months later after the Cowboys lost to Washington 34-20 the Sunday before Thanksgiving in Washington. Henderson was clowning around and was released by Landry.

[JoeGriego1]

I remember this game because I believe this was Hollywood Hendersons last game as a cowboy. The cowboys were losing big time and a Hollywood was on the sidelines panning for the camera, holding up his finger saying "we're #1" and laughing. He was waived shortly thereafter.

[jake44514]

I was at this game. I was 14. I didn't like the outcome but it was my first Cowboys game. I've been to many more since then.

[DUFOUR216]

I was at this game i was 11 Thanx Jeff and Jerry for taking me...GO COWBOYS  !!!!

[dallas5sb]

Wow! those Cowboy jerseys and the helmet are CLASSIC. Best uniform in all of sports. Easily.

[cedriclovesaaron]

those Dallas road unis are better than todays

[FuUberFu]

Dallas of course had bigger shoulder pads than Cleveland, but Cleveland had brown uniforms which went nicely with there name; the Cleveland "Browns." This is why Cleveland won, even though Dallas had a "star" on their helmets; it wasn't enough even though "stars" or "lightning bolts" are good to have on a helmet or a tennis shoe, maybe even a sock.

[PCCphoenix]

Tom Landry said after this game, "We [the Cowboys] made all the mistakes and they [the Browns] made none." With that, I commend the Browns for their performance here.

[vidkeeper9]

GUYS ANY ONE PLZ REPLY DON COCKROFT IS MY TEACHERS HUSBAND!!!!

[ricanpap1909]

@vidkeeper9 tell him that how in the hell u miss an extra point? i blame him- not Sipe for the playoff loss to the Raiders. if he knew how to kick we would have won the damn Super Bowl that year

[jystrebler]

@vidkeeper9 I met Don one year when I sort or broke into their training camp to get interviews for a High School newspaper. Super nice guy. I was a kid and asked really stupid questions, but he sat there with me for about 10 minutes patiently giving me answers. He was very polite and kind to me and I've never forgotten that.

[ErikS1975FreeState]

The Browns had some real good offensive teams in the late 70's-early 80's but couldn't win a playoff game because they weren't very good on defense which you need to be to be successful on the playoffs.

[VakanoTheeMc]

Hello viewers of youtube this is Vakano and I want you to check out my new video Simply Put (um bluesing)....

[Knuxes]

Str8-On kicker missed the PAT... LMAO! There were few automatic kickers back in the 70's.

[RAIDERS58th]

Was that Clay Matthews name I saw? My God that man must have been in the league since the days of leather helmets. What a great BROWN he was.

[frtnokr]

@RAIDERS58th It was the start of his career. He is #57 AND my #1 ALL-TIME FAVORITE Cleveland Brown!! Absolute fan of the Orange pants AND LOVE the brown pants from last season

[jjcox42]

It takes me back when I was so proud to wear the Browns colors I'm still proud whether their doing good or bad. It takes a true fan to stick with to the Browns through thick and thin. The Sipe years where some of the most exciting time of my life watching football.

[david24262]

I was in the Marine Corps and won $44 in our unit's football pool thanks to this Browns victory. . .Remember it like yesterday!

[buckskipper]

I was eight yrs old @ the time and I remember this like yesterday.

[buckskipper]

Oh, the good ole days...

[FuelMatiX]

I was in Jarry Sipe's class in first grade by Travis felthaus

[usurper70]

..Both the Pruitts' moooves!!!!

Alzedo attackin!

Brian Sipe a passin!

Don Cockroft kickin!

on a Rutigliano superbowl teeam!!

[truthfulmind]

No part 1?

[FrsBigeasy]

Ah ABC Monday Night Football my favorite show of all time.

[eugenemcgirt]

I love hearing this Monday Night Football broadcast. Authentic stuff..

[FrsBigeasy]

Ah those were the days. Now it's just another show with an average Play by Play man an a mediocre Pre Game & Halftime Show. Now that SNF is on NBC with Bob Costas & Al Michals, that's now the better of the 2 shows.

[400exNick]

This Video makes me proud to be a Browns Fan! I wasn't born till 1982 but I have always heard my dad tell stories of the Kardiac kids and how great and exciting they were! GO BROWNS!!! Quinn in 09!

[truthfulmind]

LOL at Quinn. He is terrible.

[mayaerie]

I love those Blue Jerseys. We seldom saw them in the 1970's because Dallas wore white at home and white on the road 90% of the time. I wish they would return to these. I don't like them with the bluish pants. However ,they might look good with either the current home or road pants. Would they look better with the metallic green or silver road pants. What do you think? Also the numbers are on the shoulder and not the sleeve. For several years the Blue Jerseys had the number on the sleeves!

[Market42Fan]

Blue jerseys. That usually spells trouble for Dallas.

[fatcatsathat]

Brian Sipe was one of the most underratted Quarterbacks that ever played. I enjoyed watching Sipe and the Cardiac Kids when they were at their peek.

[jystrebler]

@fatcatsathat He wasn't that under-rated. He was NFL MVP that year. 

[TheJayhawker101]

@fatcatsathat he's my cousin

[skalin23]

listen to that crowd, doesnt get any louder than old cleveland browns stadium

[jamezpackerfan]

cleveland was a really bad town but monday night in cleveland was full of joy!!!!!

[84slaughter]

I may like Sipe better than Kosar?

[whatfay357]

@84slaughter

[whatfay357]

@84slaughter up 2 u

[sharpasaneraser]

danny white was a damn fine punter.

cleveland team was loaded with offensive weapons so was dallas.

[Speegs23]

Heck of a weapon in the 80s to have your starting qb as the punter, unfortunately he never won a super bowl, lost three straight nfc championships. Tony Romo may well be the new Danny White in that regard, a good qb who never reaches greatness by failing to win the big one.

[bbaker904]

My God, did this bring back memories. I was in 9th grade and at that game. It was a sell out with 89,000 plus standing room only. I was seated on the field behind the Brown's bench with a school group. Couldn't see a thing except the back of the heads of the players until the wizzard caught his long touchdown. Some of the Brown's players felt bad and let us move down to the end of the bench just in time to see the interseption. A game i will aways remember. Sipe was great!

[hodadsmusic]

Finally a Championship in Mid to late-June! See you all on Euclid, or where ever the hell Jackson decides to hold the ticker tape parade. After long last, the Cavs will rub it all in all their faces! A Championship to C-Town after 45 years!!!!!!!!!

[areaman714]

oops!

[jtomrx]

Not Yet!

[terminaltower216]

This is my favorite Browns game of all time! I was 14 yrs. old when this game aired and it was my first Browns game ever.I am 44 yrs. old today.....after that game I became a HUGE Browns fan and has been a diehard ever since. I love the Browns and those pretty white and orange uniforms. They put a whipping on Dallas that night and all their stars. GO KARDIAC KIDS!!!

[casasjohn2000]

I am 37 and I remember staying up watching this game. I was brought up a huge Cowboy fan, and I remember how flat Dallas looked for this game.

[jamezpackerfan]

Yeah man, this was one of the greatest Browns games of the 1970s. I do agree that the Browns should change back to those old orange pants. I can name many Browns from that era. One of my fav games came in 1978 when the Browns beat the Saints in the superdome.

[volstar88]

This is great, I love watching the old Monday night games. Cosell rambling about who knows what and Dandy Don going silent when something bad happens to the Cowboys.

[hodadsmusic]

There is nothing like Cleveland sports. It's the only area where we have no idea what it's like to win a championship. Man I wish we had Sipe now! Oh by the way, if I was from another area I would put my money on the Cavs to win the NBA title, but the reality is the odds are against us. It's been 45 years afterall.

[nandoGdog]

What a great line up Howard Cosell, Dandy Don Merydeth, and Frank Gifford.

[bluezhound]

I Have lived and died with the Browns since 1968 . I Remember this game . i was in the Army at the time in Oklahoma and watched it with a bunch of Cowboy fans .LOL ..Damn near a Fight ,

WOOF!!! , Go Browns

[DoubleStar01]

This game, IMO, should have been in the set for Cleveland Browns greatest wins.

[skinny12331]

Missed the xp, wow, no nets, so funny.

[mikeadk]

This was the first sports team that I loved, and like all first loves, the heartbreak was huge...in my mind, the Browns ceased to exist when they moved away. Now I'm a Titans fan who really, really hates the Ravens!

[jam5bryce]

If I remember my Brown's history, Quarterback Brian Sipe broke my heart in the 1980 AFC playoff game aagainst Oakland when the coach chose to forgo a field goal (Cockcroft had missed two earler!) and Sipe threw an interception in the endzone. Oakland just ran out the time, defeated the Chargers the following week.....and crushed the Eagles in the Super Bowl 27 to 10.

[jtomrx]

Yep, thats the way it went down...

[tastybrownies]

@jam5bryce

Red Right 88....Thankfully I wasn't alive to see that live.

[buckfan1969]

@jam5bryce I remember it too well. The first of 3 real heartbreaks for us Cleveland fans. Prelude to The Drive, and The Fumble. I often use Earnest Byners fumble as a parable with my store teams about getting close and not closing the deal. The Drive cost me a picture window when I kicked a recliner that went into the window and broke it. Was a tough one to explain to the wife.....

[xracer09]

I miss that era of NFL football, I almost never missed watching the games every weekend from those days, I miss Frank, Howard and dandy Don, also Pat Summerall and Tom Brookshier (and later John Madden) also Charlie Jones, Merlin Olsen (you can keep Bob Costas lol) I loved all the teams they were great

[doingit4thelulz]

CLEVELAND SUCKERS

[cnsparrot]

Classic stuff man GO COWBOYS BABY !

[clevelandbrownsrule]

Hope we get Bill cowher next year

[MrMojo728]

This was my first season as a season ticket holder in the auxiliary bleacher (eventually the dawg pound) I remember being at this game like it happened last night. What a hangover the next morning in class.

[jkbezo]

Sipe was a bitch, should have won a SB, instead disapeared to the USFL according to my Dad. He was a big Brown's fan. Poor dude he may never witness a Brown SB.

[richie19190]

Gotta have faith my man.

[jkbezo]

Yes, that's true.

I always follow teams from Cleveland (pops is from that area). The Cavs, Indians, and Browns have ripped our hearts. Maybe these teams will come thru sooner or later. Cavs look good. Indians will win another WS some time. The Browns? Maybe Quinn will lead them to the top. Take care.

[Poetryisalive]

Dorsette is in the house...

[gjs78]

Landry wearing a suit on the sideline

Now

That Nolan has been fired as Niners Coach

We may never see another coach wear a suit

Even though they can wear them for home games

[hallakilla123]

brian sipe is my headcoach for highschool football right now

[jtomrx]

I hope Coach Sipe gets an opportunity to view this as well. Nice to know that former player is "Giving Back" to kids as teacher/mentor/coach ...

[darnold3315]

That's great! He was my hero when i was a kid, I grew up in cleveland and was a still am a Browns fan...boy would i love to chat it up with him...

[TommyC503]

@hallakilla123 Kid - Ask him about a guy named Jack Lambert - curious to see what he says.

[smoshfan321997]

i just got a bunch of the K-kids autographs at an autograph session

[jtomrx]

Dave Logan was rumored to be autographing as well...How Cool is that ?!? THX for the FYI.

[smoshfan321997]

yeah,dave logan was there!

[casheasy]

I remember watching this game with my family. I was 12 at the time. Browns won 26-7 and it was electric.

[ShutupHollywood]

I was 8 years old and I remember sneaking out of my bedroom to take a look at the game from behind the sofa, I was sneaky and quiet.

It was the best game of that year.

[MIKECNW]

They could of at least allowed you to stay up late just that one time.

[wildwest1]

Reggie Rucker's son Derek was a very good player for the Davidso Wildcats(basketball), class of '88.

[swca92]

"Don Cockroft misses the extra point".The guy must have nightmares now about how his poor kicking(due to injury)led to red right 88.

[jtomrx]

Cockroft is one of the MOST accurate Kickers in history of the NFL. Despite opinion, Im convinced he would have made that Kick. Remember, 1980 Browns LIVED & DIED with "THE PASS". Red-Right 88 was suppose to go to Dave Logan, somehow Sipe misread the Coverage and the rest is history.

[swca92]

I'm just saying that his kicking during that game was poor,which it was(I believe he missed an extra point and a field goal but did kick 2 field goals as well).

[gjs78]

Kickers weren't as accurate back then

More Field Goals and Point after attempts were missed or blocked than they are now

Nearly 85 percent of field goals made and only three extra points missed so far through nine weeks so far in 2008 NFL season.

There were kickers in 1979 that missed several extra points and whose field goal percentage was barely over 50 percent

I kind of like that.

Field Goal Kicking has become too accurate

[WCD73]

What date was this game played?

[jtomrx]

Sept 24th, 1979... Monday nite

[WCD73]

Thank You.

[yacsfc]

Orange, blue, and silver all on a football field at once.....only in the 70s......

[qpmz77]

thank you sooooo much for posting this do you have anymore

[1975tooto]

Dallas in Blue! Wow! Rare!

[gerlock11]

Great footage, thanks for posting. Is there a part 1 out there somewhere? I couldn't find it.

[jtomrx]

PART 1 was removed because of CopyRight as I was told. There was MNF Grapics, Logo'ing, Howard's ON-The-Air PreGame etc etc. So when I find the time I will Re-edit and only POST actual game footage for PART 1.

[gerlock11]

That's a shame, because actually that's the part that would be most interesting. To get the feel of the stadium right before the big event.

Thanks for the explanation, again great job on the footage.

[Camel22221]

That's really too bad. That MNF Theme Opening in 1979 was awesome. Damn ABC -- just ruin it for everyone.

[giles422]

love those original Cowboys road jerseys.

[cedriclovesaaron]

me too

[nflsmackdown]

Clowns never sniffed a Super Bowl title and they never will. Stinkin Clowns!

[aewusp45]

Just because you change the name of the championship doesn't mean that the Browns haven't won more than the Stoolers. Browns Championships 8, Steelers 5. 10 championships in 10 years, winning 7 of them. You can't turn a blind eye to some of history and quote other parts of it hoping that it will have any redeeming logic. Go Browns!

[cbaldwinjr]

You're arguing with an oxygen thief dude...he obviously is a world class idiot. Therefore, logic will fail to get across. Those Browns of the '50's were the NFL's first REAL dynasty...10 title games in 10 years (including the AAFC). Otto Graham, Marion Motley, Bill Willis, Lou Groza, etc. Classic team that won and broke down barriers.

[appletonnorth]

Nice hunk of tape. Takes me back.

[mrbuckeye45]

Wow, what a great post. Really brings back memories to see all of those old Browns players. Really sends shivers down my spine. Takes you back to a different time in your life, just like a song.

[cmcdanie90]

they played football back then... no bling bling just football

[schef99]

this was when MNF was great, what the hell were they thinking with Dennis Miller? I miss those guys, Howards halftime can never be beaten by Berman, he lives in Howards shadow.

[sowhatisk8what]

cleveland!!!

[jbone17sipe]

This is the game that made me a browns fan at 14. Now 42, this franchise still keeps me feeling young. We'll all feel 14 when we win the super bowl. Let's hope & pray it's soon.

[greg3420]

everybody is in a 3 point stance

[JeffTolcher]

where is part 1?

[jtomrx]

It was DELETED supposedly because of C-Rights issues...I had NO CHOICE. I guess they're allowing PARTs 2 & 3 for now, so enjoy it cuz they may order a TAKE DOWN on those also... :)

[GatorTrunk]

Bily Joe Dupree is from my hometown of West Monroe, La.

[jtomrx]

BJ Dupree was an amazing athlete !

[rozellemaker]

How much fun is this to watch. To hear all the great names of the browns and cowboys again is wonderful. I don't remember the final score but I do know that the Browns won. Thanks for posting this video. Go Browns.

[kevlarunderwear22]

26-7

[selloutasaurus]

Really excellent. I'm a Cowboy fan, but I still love it! I'll share it with my friends from Cleveland. Brian Sipe had a tremendous game in just these two segments! Thanks!
