Danny White Postgame (rampage)

[tiburochako]

A Tony Dorsett fumble stops him from going and winning a super bowl, was a play just to consume time and locate the bowl for the kicker, Tony fumbled that ball and the Cowboys lost they game with San Francisco by one point 27-28

Danny White > Tony Romo

[quietriotfan1976]

@DanimalBr

White doesn't fold fast like Romo does. Romo is the most overrated qb in the NFL right now.

I can't believe that Danny has gotten so fat and why he and Craig Morton are not in the Ring of Honor

@jg300gman I caught Staubach's last two seasons, but Danny White was the Cowboys QB I remember most. He was my favorite Dallas QB

[eaglesyz]

@jg300gman Danny White was also a great punter and how many fake punts did he pull off for first downs.

[jg300gman]

yea....Danny was very good at being a qb...punter....and just all-around nice guy. Should be in the Cowboy's Ring of honor for sure. The Cowboy teams from the early 80's were just as good as any....they just didn't quite play to their ability in the NFC championship games

[eaglesyz]

What did not help was that the Cowboys had to play those 3 straight NFC title games on the road. Gosh, I wish they had beaten the skins in '83. Thiesman could fertilize a desert with his mouth. Had the Cowboys won the 3 NCF title games, They would have lost to the Raiders in the '81 superbowl.....had a dogfight with the Bengals in the '82 superbowl and beaten the Dolphins in the '83 Superbowl. I think those Cowboy teams would have beaten the Saints and Colts this year.

@eaglesyz

Cowboys would have beaten the raiders in 81. They had already beat them that year. Tom landry over Tom flores in a big game.

[eaglesyz]

@superman93994 The Eagles also beat the Raiders during the regular season that year but Jim Plunkett stepped it up when it counted and Raiders buried the Eagles in the Super Bowl in the same season. Landry was the better coach than Flores but Plunkett played at another level. Flores Raiders beat the cowboys in the 1983 regular season game. Thanks for the feedback, my condolances to Cowboy fans for the passing of Dandy Don Meredith. Merry Christmas.

Everybody blames Danny White for losing 3 NFC Championship games and bla, bla, bla......but what about Defense? They had part of the blame as well, and at SFO it was a miraculous tackle to stop the receiver to score a TD.....He deserves a lot of recognition from us Dallas' fans, we are more classy than any other fans that even booed Favre after he gave them their only ring in more than 30 years......I agree with you 5lowrollID

[danvanmac]

Danny White in the HOF!

[5lowrollD]

This guy always played with CLASS. Win or lose, the guy was absolutley a professional. Never complained, never got out of line. Great player who never got the credit he deserves.

[XXXFirebird76XXX]

I liked Danny White a lot. His teams did well, but just fell short a few times. I still remember the one play in the mid 1980's that seem to end the Cowboys run as an elite team. It was a 4th down hand off to Ron Springs versus the Redskins. It was a knockout punch that I could feel sitting at home. The Cowboys were never the same again until they rebuilt in the early 90's.

[6400az]

Never liked Danny White. He was the type of QB that could possibly get you the championship, but only if he played in a team with an awesome, kick butt defense that scored....( Trent Dilfer with the Ravens a couple of years ago.)At best, White may have been a shade above average.

[BullpenBoss]

How many championships have you won chump?

[333CLEAR]

Actually, Danny stepped into a VERY daunting position in replacing Staubach, -considering those specific set of circumstances, I think its doubtful many QB's would've done better.He helped lead the Cowboys to an 18-0 record at Texas Stadium in 1980 & '81, but the Cowboys lost all 3 NFC Title games on the road.Most championship QB's had solid-to-great defenses on their team, so that factor isn't inclusive to something only Danny White needed.

[bobd007]

I remember him punting for Roger Staubachs Cowboys and then he QB'ed and still remained the punter.

[alkeyhall]

I also grew up watching Danny White and the cowboys.He was a great QB and he always gave 100% on the field.

[333CLEAR]

Grew up watching Danny, he's never gotten the credit he deserved & was oh so close to getting to the Super Bowl.The last QB/punter I can think of.

[knockits12]

i liked danny white i was very small but loved the cowboys....he had great stats but he just could never win the big one....i like romo very much i to think that he will and can not take them to the promise land....

[ryflo]

Was My fav too growing up. I remember a game when they had hogeboom start and i think it was against saints,we were down like 23-3 and he brought us back to win. I have never liked a player like d. white

[matt3794]

Danny White was my hero. My only regret was that he didn't win the superbowl.

[Fuzzi515]

people dont realize how great he was.he was drafted by three professional baseball teams.had his choice of football or baseball.i think he one 4 fiesta bowls.won 2 superbowls as punter.went to 3 nfc championships.one a championship in the canadian league.been to 5 arena bowls.athlete of the century in arizona.he truly was and still is awesome

[IRLIndyCar]

Danny White! Awesome. I miss seeing #11 on Sundays!

[trevinboy]

Amen to that Buddy!! Man, he was and is my favorite QB of all time! I grew up wanting to be Danny White all my life. God bless you Danny White! If you ever come in here, give me a holler, it would mean alot to me. Danny White the best!
