You're joking right? Look where Norton is standing when he hits Davis. A foot in front of the goal line. Davis had absolutely no forward momentum at that point. In fact I thougt for a second his spine was gonna break backwards.

Couldn't agree more. I missed Ken a ton after he left us.

How bout dem Cowboys?

@YAAUFA Are you not going to count the '71 Dolphins? They were in 3 straight SB's in the 70's. How about the '76 Steelers? I assume you mean teams that won two straight SB's, and were in at least 3 straight conf. champions. You know, the Super Bowl goes back to before the 80's, right?

@YAAUFA For every Dallas fan those 21 give away points will always be the "what if" angle of that entire game(kind of like Steelers fans on Sunday lol) and yes your right about Irvin and Sanders that shitty field in Candlestick took away the speed factor in the game and Irvin took advantage of that big time making Deion just another DB getting physically outplayed by the best physical WR in the game ....i'll never forget that uncalled hold on Irvin on the Cowboys last drive ...arrrgh!!

@vardiss22

What I take back from that 3rd straight NFC title game was:

(1) cowboys gave 21 points away

(2) Michael Irvin schooled Deion Sanders All day, including the missed calls.

@YAAUFA i agree 100%..the made damn sure theysigned Deion and any players from Dallas that didn't resign in 93/94....as much as i loved Barry Switzer ...he didn't have the team ready for THE main game of the season beating SF (both in the regular season and the playoffs) i think Jimmy would have had a game plan Barry (for the most part) just seemed to let the players play but like you said they still almost won...had that NFC championship game been in dallas it might have been different

[YAAUFA]

@vardiss22

I bring up this argument up all the time when people start to talk about the greatest dynasty's of all time. After the 2nd straight beat down in the NFC title game the niners front office went out and brought every possible free agent to stop the Cowboys and barely did it.

[vardiss22]

@vardiss22 ....and yep VERY likely four straight.....thats the big reason Buffalo played in four straight Superbowls they kept that team (and coaching staff) together for that entire run

[vardiss22]

@YAAUFA ....i think even people who hate Dallas have to admit that had Jerry not messed with the formula (letting Jimmy Johnson leave and not resigning players like Norton, and James Washington from the 93 squad among others ) theyDEFINTELY could have won three straight no doubts,
