00:00:00We'll be right back with more

00:00:01from the Dodgers.

00:00:02We'll be right back.

00:00:05Georgia Dome where last night

00:00:09the city of Atlanta celebrated

00:00:10the world championship for their

00:00:12Atlanta Braves and Atlanta didn't

00:00:15get much sleep last night.

00:00:17I'm Pat Summerall with John

00:00:18Madden.

00:00:19John the Dallas Cowboys come to

00:00:21town to play the Atlanta

00:00:22Falcons two of the best teams in

00:00:23the NFL.

00:00:25Dallas welcomes Deion Sanders

00:00:27but they were still a pretty

00:00:29good team in fact I think right

00:00:30now the Cowboys are the best

00:00:32team in the NFL and we know they

00:00:34have the offer and they got the

00:00:35quarterback the wide receivers

00:00:37a big offensive line.

00:00:38But if they had any weakness it

00:00:40was generally their defense and

00:00:41specifically their secondary.

00:00:43And when you get a guy back like

00:00:44Deion Sanders who's the best

00:00:46defensive back in all football

00:00:48he could just take one guy one

00:00:49side of the field and that

00:00:51allows you to do a lot of other

00:00:52things on defense.

00:00:53Today's opponent the Atlanta

00:00:54Falcons do something a little

00:00:56bit different.

00:00:56They're the only team left in

00:00:58the NFL that runs the run and

00:00:59shoot the red gun they call it.

00:01:02What problems does that present.

00:01:03Well you know it's different

00:01:05because you don't get to

00:01:05practice against it but I think

00:01:07you need some of the run in the

00:01:08run and shoot too and this guy

00:01:10here Ironhead Hayward has to

00:01:11give him some running today and

00:01:13I think they have to get some

00:01:14first down get the ball in the

00:01:16hands of Eric Metcalf take a

00:01:17short pass and let him make a

00:01:19big play out of it.

00:01:20But the one thing that the

00:01:22Falcons can't do today that's

00:01:24have turnovers coming up next.

00:01:28Here on Fox it's the Dallas

00:01:29Cowboys and the Atlanta Falcons

00:01:31from Georgia don't know and I'll

00:01:32be back for the opening kickoff

00:01:35when Fox NFL Sunday continues

00:01:37after these messages from your

00:01:38local station you're in Atlanta

00:01:50Dallas Cowboys against the

00:01:51Atlanta Falcons.

00:01:53There's the head coach of

00:01:54Atlanta June Jones and Barry

00:01:57Switzer his second year as the

00:01:59head coach of the Cowboys

00:02:02Atlanta won the toss.

00:02:05Bonio kicks off to Jamal

00:02:08Anderson and down he goes hit by

00:02:13Lang and let's look at the

00:02:16Falcons red gun offense led by

00:02:18Jeff George having a good year

00:02:21in front of him an offensive

00:02:23line that faces a challenge

00:02:25to the left field.

00:02:26Whitefield Tobin Fortin is and

00:02:29Defsky Zandowski rather and

00:02:31Richards Craig Hayward will be

00:02:34the lone setback JJ Burden

00:02:36Mathis Metcalf and Emmanuel the

00:02:40wide outs interesting to see

00:02:44where Deion Sanders is going to

00:02:46play Pat he's here on the right

00:02:48side of the field or the short

00:02:51and he's down facing burden this

00:02:55time it gets to carry and gets

00:03:00only a couple the Dallas defense

00:03:04Charles Haley ninety four Leon

00:03:06let Russell Maryland and Tony

00:03:08Tolbert just two linebackers

00:03:11today as they'll go with five

00:03:12DBs Darren Smith and Robert

00:03:14Jones and the addition of Darren

00:03:16Smith gives them speed as well

00:03:20as a chance to get a lead on

00:03:21the right side of the field

00:03:25Marion Deion Sanders Darren

00:03:30Woodson Metcalf is now the deep

00:03:34back the running back thanks to

00:03:35him.

00:03:36George Rose Wright fires

00:03:38complete that's one of the

00:03:43things that Jeff George was

00:03:44talking about the other day that

00:03:46they're going to do more of

00:03:47usually just a little roll out

00:03:49what they're going to do today

00:03:51is more bootleg and you see

00:03:53where the quarterback is going

00:03:54to fake to one side see then

00:03:56he's going to roll way out to

00:03:57the other side.

00:03:58Jeff George says instead of just

00:04:00getting behind that guard they

00:04:02got a lot of pass patterns today

00:04:04they're going to get him outside

00:04:05that tackle area and that was

00:04:07one the bootleg that pass that

00:04:09first down to Mathis the handoff

00:04:13is to Ironhead Hayward and he is

00:04:17swarmed upon I'll tell you you

00:04:19need swarm upon to get big

00:04:21Ironhead down.

00:04:25He is a big load.

00:04:27That's why Deion Sanders out

00:04:29here on Emanuel.

00:04:30Now one thing it's a run.

00:04:32So so they're not even playing

00:04:34out there.

00:04:35But he says the guys always try

00:04:38and run him off.

00:04:40I don't know what the heck Deion

00:04:41was doing out there.

00:04:42He wanted some action.

00:04:43Well he got some.

00:04:45Yeah because the run was up the

00:04:46middle Deion was way out on the

00:04:47other side of the field.

00:04:49He's facing Burton this time.

00:04:51Here's George gets it out to

00:04:54Terrence Mathis again.

00:04:56It's about six yards before he's

00:04:59taken out of bat.

00:05:00You know that's not a bad idea.

00:05:02When you know Deion Sanders is

00:05:03going to be playing man to man

00:05:05run him off run him up and up

00:05:08and they're going to do that

00:05:09today to him all day.

00:05:10They just have J.J. Burton run on

00:05:12up then work where he was.

00:05:14You know work that position.

00:05:16That's what they did.

00:05:16They ran they ran Burton on and

00:05:18up and then they just brought

00:05:20Terrence Mathis out in the area

00:05:22where they ran Deion Sanders off

00:05:25of you better sure make sure he

00:05:27bites on the up Metcalf is on

00:05:32the move this time.

00:05:33George back to throw it.

00:05:34They throw it almost every day.

00:05:37The Burton manual another

00:05:39Atlanta first down Darren

00:05:41Woodson made a stop.

00:05:43He's got a great arm George has

00:05:46a great arm a guy that he throws

00:05:48it to as a pretty good arm to

00:05:50birdie man you'll remember he

00:05:51was a a quarterback in college

00:05:53at Rice here they're playing way

00:05:55off and you saw Larry Brown not

00:05:57comfortable over there in that

00:05:58left side playing way off giving

00:06:00birdie manual a big cushion and

00:06:03they just ran that little hitch

00:06:04pass.

00:06:05That's one of the things that

00:06:06the presence of Deion forces I

00:06:10think Larry Brown has to swap

00:06:13sides he's normally on the

00:06:14defensive right that time he was

00:06:16on the defensive left.

00:06:17George rolls right.

00:06:29That's the drive the Falcons

00:06:31needed.

00:06:32Yeah no turnovers Jeff George

00:06:35confidence.

00:06:37Cowboy Rush didn't knock him out

00:06:39didn't knock him down.

00:06:41He was able to move around.

00:06:42You see here it's a shotgun.

00:06:44Now this is what they call

00:06:45stash.

00:06:46He's not going to stay in the

00:06:47pocket.

00:06:47They want to rush at a point in

00:06:49the pocket.

00:06:50He just runs that dash ran out

00:06:52to the side.

00:06:52They just put Eric Metcalf right

00:06:54down the middle.

00:06:55He split those two safeties and

00:06:57Jeff George threw a perfect pass

00:06:59George four out of four on that

00:07:01drive.

00:07:03Extra point by Morton Anderson

00:07:05the longtime New Orleans Saint

00:07:06was good and Atlanta lead 7

00:07:09nothing.

00:07:11George the Metcalf.

00:07:18Then again here's Eric Metcalf.

00:07:20George is going to dash out here

00:07:22to buy time.

00:07:23Metcalf gets by here comes up

00:07:25here on Scott case makes a move

00:07:26and just runs a post pattern.

00:07:30See him here he redirects air

00:07:32but by by George going out to

00:07:34the right that bought him time

00:07:36and then at one position he got

00:07:38man on man on Scott case and

00:07:40that is flag on the play Eggman

00:07:50gets ready flag on the play.

00:07:54Ron Blum is the referee and has

00:07:58to be one of those illegal block

00:08:01from behind when you imagine are

00:08:02holding.

00:08:03I would imagine as you see all

00:08:04these guys are holding.

00:08:07Illegal holding Eggman having a

00:08:12great year sensational year one

00:08:15of the best offensive lines to

00:08:17an a Newton Donaldson Allen and

00:08:19Eric Williams Emmett Smith

00:08:22Darrell Johnson the two running

00:08:24backs Kevin Williams Michael

00:08:26Irvin wideouts Jane overchecked

00:08:29the tight end long time in the

00:08:33middle of the huddle Kevin

00:08:39Williams improved in the words

00:08:42of Barry Switzer 200 percent

00:08:45between Thursday and Friday

00:08:47here's a pickup about six Jesse

00:08:55Tuggle and Darryl Talley on the

00:08:59Atlanta defense injured a bit

00:09:06we'll get to them in a moment

00:09:09well they're they're starting

00:09:10left defensive end Chuck Smith

00:09:12is inactive today as is their

00:09:15starting left tackle Pierce

00:09:18Arsham bow is left in is the left

00:09:20in a man steps up fire.

00:09:27I go live and again jump he

00:09:30gathers is one of the defensive

00:09:32tackle Mo Gardner the other

00:09:35Dolman and Lester are shambo the

00:09:39defensive ends tally Tuggle and

00:09:40man.

00:09:41He's got a good shot.

00:09:42He's got a good shot.

00:09:43He's got a good shot.

00:09:44He's got a good shot.

00:09:45He's got a good shot.

00:09:46Tally Tuggle and Matthews the

00:09:48linebackers and the secondary DJ

00:09:51Johnston Johnson rather Harper

00:09:54Ross and Phillips that was that

00:09:59was Michael Irvin's 73rd straight

00:10:01game with a catch.

00:10:02That's a cowboy record broke the

00:10:06record held by Tony Hill.

00:10:08Here's a first Terry and it

00:10:11bangs it for a first down Roger

00:10:14made the stop.

00:10:17I'll tell you maybe that maybe

00:10:18that score by the Falcons was a

00:10:21wake up call for the baby boy

00:10:22because watch his offensive line

00:10:24fire out.

00:10:25We always talk about Emmitt

00:10:26Smith and how he runs.

00:10:28Daryl Johnston is always a great

00:10:30lead blocker.

00:10:31He does it again.

00:10:32Emmitt Smith just finds that

00:10:33hole that crack hits it quickly

00:10:35and boom the next thing you know

00:10:36it's a first down Nate Newton a

00:10:38good block on jump he gathers

00:10:40but it's all those guys working

00:10:41together.

00:10:42And here's a big offensive line

00:10:44along with Daryl Johnston a

00:10:45great run by Emmitt Smith Nova

00:10:49check on the move and it's meant

00:10:51again behind the line by Clay

00:10:54Matthews and drag down there.

00:10:56No game.

00:10:57There's an amazing guy is really

00:10:59a linebacker Clay Matthews.

00:11:00I remember when his dad played

00:11:03for the San Francisco 49ers Clay

00:11:05Matthews his 18th year in the

00:11:07league.

00:11:09You say you know you I mean you

00:11:10find 18 year guys that do

00:11:11nothing but play.

00:11:12I remember playing with Clay

00:11:13Matthews 18 years as a

00:11:15linebacker.

00:11:16No linebacker has ever played

00:11:18that long in this league.

00:11:19Well there it is right there

00:11:20versus brothers a great player

00:11:22Bruce Matthews with the Houston

00:11:24Oilers and I said I remember his

00:11:26dad Clay Matthews senior with

00:11:28the 49ers.

00:11:30I hate to say it but I played

00:11:31against him.

00:11:33He's here today.

00:11:34Yeah.

00:11:35After Emmitt Smith.

00:11:37And.

00:11:38He's here today.

00:11:41Tuggle and tally.

00:11:43There's Clay Matthews right

00:11:45there.

00:11:46She looks different from what I

00:11:47remember.

00:11:50And there's all the grandkids

00:11:51Clay Matthews senior grandkids.

00:11:53My name is Clay and I'm nine.

00:11:55I am Jennifer.

00:11:57So that's Clay number fifty

00:11:59seven kids right and then play

00:12:01seniors or grandkids all here to

00:12:03watch number fifty seven.

00:12:05Now we're talking.

00:12:05He loves it and that's why he

00:12:07play.

00:12:08I mean it's just it's still a

00:12:08game to third and four three

00:12:11wide receiver.

00:12:17Aikman got away from the

00:12:18Atlanta Blitz gets the pass

00:12:21there.

00:12:21I don't know how but he got it

00:12:23in there.

00:12:24I don't know.

00:12:25Kevin Ross was a blitz.

00:12:27He said the safety came.

00:12:29Troy Aikman gets away.

00:12:30Remember a couple of weeks ago

00:12:32he couldn't run.

00:12:33Now he can and he and and the

00:12:35blitz is going to come from

00:12:36right there.

00:12:37There's Kevin Ross.

00:12:38Now watch he's going to come and

00:12:39he's not blocked.

00:12:40He has a free shot at Troy

00:12:42Aikman.

00:12:43I don't even know if Aikman

00:12:44season but he's so strong that

00:12:46Ross just went right around his

00:12:48waist and then boom he goes out

00:12:50there and of course who is he

00:12:51going to look for once he gets

00:12:52out here.

00:12:53And how does he get this ball in

00:12:54there.

00:12:56I'll tell you I think he can get

00:12:57that ball when he's throwing it

00:12:59to number 88.

00:13:00I think he can get it in

00:13:01anywhere anytime.

00:13:02Back to throw it again.

00:13:04This time he won't get away from

00:13:05the blitz or he does and gets it

00:13:07to him at Smith.

00:13:11One thing I know the Falcons

00:13:13looked at the San Diego Charger

00:13:15game which was the last game that

00:13:17the Cowboys played and they felt

00:13:19that they didn't knock Troy

00:13:20Aikman down enough that they let

00:13:22him play a clean game.

00:13:24And one thing the Falcons do is

00:13:25they want to throw him out of his

00:13:27rhythm but they want to get him

00:13:28to the ground.

00:13:29Make him feel that ground and

00:13:31feel the ground early.

00:13:34Watch him on that.

00:13:35He went from his left hand to

00:13:36get it out to his right hand so

00:13:38he could still throw it after he

00:13:39was down.

00:13:40They ruled him down before he got

00:13:43rid of the ball.

00:13:45There's still a remarkable play

00:13:47and he's taking his time out.

00:13:51Mo Gardner just got by Larry

00:13:53Allen to put the pressure on

00:13:55Troy Aikman.

00:13:59Her video blimp and its crew to

00:14:01today's telecast piloting the

00:14:03blockbuster blimp is Terry

00:14:05Dillard from Lake Monroe

00:14:06Florida.

00:14:08How they do that.

00:14:09I don't know why.

00:14:10Why would they do that.

00:14:11We're in a dome.

00:14:13You've got a big old roof like

00:14:14this.

00:14:15And why would they even give a

00:14:16blimp to this game.

00:14:17Why would a blimp even come.

00:14:19And then how do I get the shot

00:14:21of the blimp.

00:14:21Terry Dillard the pilot can't

00:14:23see the game.

00:14:23Oh he doesn't know.

00:14:25Second and 14.

00:14:26Here's Aikman back to throw it.

00:14:29Gets it to him at Smith again

00:14:31and he stopped immediately by

00:14:32Darryl Talley brings up third

00:14:36and long.

00:14:37Yeah we talked about Clay

00:14:38Matthews on one side then Darryl

00:14:40Talley plays on the other side.

00:14:42He's a 12 year veteran Jesse

00:14:44Tuggle plays in the middle.

00:14:45He's a nine year veteran.

00:14:48So this is the oldest or I guess

00:14:50you should say most most

00:14:52experienced set of linebackers

00:14:54in National Football League.

00:14:56Yet June Jones the head coach

00:14:58said that Darryl Talley was

00:14:59still still feeling his way on

00:15:02defense.

00:15:03They think of this back out then

00:15:04they come back with a blip.

00:15:09They're going to hurt Troy.

00:15:10They're going after him if they

00:15:12don't pick up that blip.

00:15:14They have to have an eight come

00:15:15right up the middle and watch

00:15:16his shot that Troy Aikman takes

00:15:18here.

00:15:20The last couple of games he's

00:15:21had a clean game and watch as

00:15:23they fake the blip and then they

00:15:25come back up the middle and

00:15:26watch the hit right here.

00:15:28Boom.

00:15:28Tuggle.

00:15:29Oh Jesse Tuggle as he put a hit

00:15:31on Troy Aikman watch it right

00:15:32there.

00:15:34And then what.

00:15:34I mean he got the whack from

00:15:36Tuggle in the middle and Dillman

00:15:37Chris Dillman on the other side.

00:15:40John Jett back to punt.

00:15:46Hunters love kicking inside.

00:15:48Jeff hangs a good one up there.

00:15:54The ball bounce after Metcalf

00:15:57signal fair catch the ball

00:15:59bounced at about the three and

00:16:00then into the end zone.

00:16:02So the Falcons will take over at

00:16:05the 20 Georgia dome Pat

00:16:09Summerall with John Madden 7

00:16:11nothing the Atlanta Falcons

00:16:12lead Dallas 548 left in the

00:16:16first quarter.

00:16:19Dion Sanders making his debut in

00:16:23the blue and white of Dallas

00:16:24he'll play on the right

00:16:25defensive side most of the time.

00:16:28But if the ball is on a hash

00:16:29mark he's going to play on the

00:16:31narrow side or hash mark side of

00:16:34the field.

00:16:37George screen flash.

00:16:39Well defense.

00:16:41Couple of guys miss chased out

00:16:42of bounds by case.

00:16:48One thing if you look here see

00:16:49these are the hash marks these

00:16:50are the pro hash marks here.

00:16:52So when you look if the ball is

00:16:54going to be spotted on this hash

00:16:56mark Dion Sanders should play on

00:16:58this side of the field.

00:16:59And right in fact right now you

00:17:01see him switching.

00:17:02So here's Dion going over here

00:17:04because he knows that he's

00:17:05playing the short side of the

00:17:07field because that's the side

00:17:10that the hash mark is on the

00:17:12other side of course would be

00:17:13called the wide side second and

00:17:1710 collides and keeps moving

00:17:29around.

00:17:29He's got to be big Darren Smith

00:17:33when you're Darren Woodson made

00:17:34the stop you have to like about

00:17:36Ironhead Heyward I mean he runs

00:17:37in there and he gets whacked

00:17:39every way you can get whacked

00:17:41and then he gets up smiling.

00:17:42I mean I mean to him it's still

00:17:44fun it's still a game and you

00:17:46want to see a record look at

00:17:47this helmet iron head it was an

00:17:50eight and a quarter.

00:17:51I picked that thing up the other

00:17:52day at practice.

00:17:53That's a two hand job.

00:17:55You've got to be big in order to

00:17:57turn off.

00:17:58You have to be big.

00:17:59I mean forget about carrying a

00:18:00third and three Bert Emanuel

00:18:05makes the catch.

00:18:07George threw it behind him and

00:18:09he twisted and made a one hand

00:18:10grab and they practice this all

00:18:12the time.

00:18:13This is called a fade stop and

00:18:15it's against Deon Sanders here.

00:18:17You make it look like you're

00:18:18going to run a fade or an up and

00:18:20you just stop and turn and he

00:18:22throws the ball short at

00:18:24practice up that you the other

00:18:26day on Friday.

00:18:27And he threw a hundred of these

00:18:28passes just like that.

00:18:30And Jim Jones was saying they

00:18:31they just discovered this by

00:18:33chance.

00:18:34Well yeah.

00:18:34And you wait every time you see

00:18:36that you think it's a mistake.

00:18:37There was a ball thrown short

00:18:38and the receiver had to come

00:18:39back for it.

00:18:40That's a designed call play

00:18:43George same thing same thing on

00:18:47the other side against Larry

00:18:48Brown to burden this is the one

00:18:53you see they just go like

00:18:54they're going up.

00:18:55And then they just wait.

00:18:56And then they just wait.

00:18:56And then JJ Burton will come off

00:18:59the line like he's going to go

00:19:01deeper a fade pattern and then

00:19:03he just wait he stopped and then

00:19:04the ball is thrown behind him

00:19:06and he just makes a twist and

00:19:07catches that.

00:19:10I guess I always thought that

00:19:11was a mistake of a poorly

00:19:13thrown ball.

00:19:14That is a very accurately thrown

00:19:16ball called a stop fade.

00:19:18Well execute.

00:19:19He said one of the great things

00:19:20about it is they can work on it

00:19:22on their own.

00:19:22They can work on it on their own

00:19:23and they can work on it on their

00:19:24own and they can work on it on

00:19:25their own and they can work on

00:19:26it on their own and they can

00:19:27work on it on their own.

00:19:28George Mrs. Metcalf covered by

00:19:32Woodson.

00:19:34I think that has to be George's

00:19:35first miss isn't it.

00:19:36I think it is.

00:19:37I mean that's the thing you know

00:19:38Jeff George is one of these guys

00:19:40that is a a streak passer.

00:19:42When he gets hot he can get real

00:19:44hot whereas when he gets cold he

00:19:46can get a little cold too.

00:19:48But he's been hot so far this

00:19:49first quarter.

00:19:50He looks a little worried in

00:19:51that picture but when he's out

00:19:53on the field it looks like hey

00:19:55where am I.

00:19:57Well he has that red gun that

00:19:59you know the only one that does

00:20:01that is a very complicated

00:20:02office to the Dallas 45 game of

00:20:10about six ironhead says you know

00:20:13now he used to weigh over 300

00:20:15pounds when he played in this

00:20:16league and he says the only way

00:20:18they can tackle you know we're

00:20:20talking about how do you tackle

00:20:22and he just pointed down below

00:20:23his knees.

00:20:24That's the only way that they

00:20:25can win you know one on one can

00:20:27get him.

00:20:28You can't get him up high.

00:20:29You see right there you go down

00:20:31and you chop him right below his

00:20:32knees and he has scars from his

00:20:34knees to his toes.

00:20:36He is full of scars and he can

00:20:38name the defensive back that hit

00:20:40him on each scar third and four

00:20:48and two.

00:20:49And the first down Atlanta at

00:20:54the Dallas 30.

00:20:56Bruck Marion on the stop.

00:20:58One thing this Atlanta team is

00:20:59getting good pass protection now

00:21:01for Jeff George Bob Whitfield

00:21:03playing over there on Charles

00:21:04Haley doing a good job a man on

00:21:07man pass protection.

00:21:08Watch it.

00:21:09Here's Whitfield here.

00:21:10Here's Charles Haley.

00:21:11If you're going to be back here

00:21:13throwing the ball you better get

00:21:15number 94 blocks.

00:21:17Now watch Whitfield.

00:21:18Here's Charles Haley.

00:21:19He throws him right to right

00:21:20beyond.

00:21:21And let's just George step up

00:21:22and throw that ball.

00:21:23Good footwork by Whitfield.

00:21:26Whitfield's a good tackle.

00:21:30Now showing blitz and they're

00:21:32coming.

00:21:32Woodson coming at.

00:21:33And.

00:21:35Matt this has evolved.

00:21:37They had the right play called

00:21:40at the right time.

00:21:41Brock Marion made the stop.

00:21:44They had a screen pass.

00:21:45They got Robbie Toback out there.

00:21:47He's going to get a little bit

00:21:48of a break here.

00:21:49He's going to get a little bit

00:21:50of a break here.

00:21:53Watch this.

00:21:54This is a play before I watch

00:21:56what they do to Charles Haley.

00:21:57You see they just drive him

00:21:58right out and then that is the

00:22:01lane that Jeff George can throw

00:22:03in second and short need about

00:22:16a yard.

00:22:17Time out.

00:22:19He went from a play to an

00:22:21audible to timeout the Falcons

00:22:26lead seven to nothing one or two

00:22:28left in the first quarter

00:22:33Georgia dome beautiful outside

00:22:36windy but it's always ideal

00:22:41conditions inside.

00:22:43Charles Haley and his Dallas

00:22:45offensive companions facing a

00:22:47real challenge from this red gun

00:22:49offense.

00:22:50Charles is probably right now I

00:22:52better get back to get a hit on

00:22:53number one because I don't think

00:22:54anyone has yet got the first

00:23:01down I think if not he's going

00:23:04to argue for it is he's going to

00:23:08stand there to make sure he has

00:23:09it.

00:23:11You know Ironhead is weighed

00:23:12every week.

00:23:13He weighs he weighs 250 pounds

00:23:15now and he gets paid ten

00:23:17thousand dollars for every time

00:23:19he weighs to 250 pounds.

00:23:22That's not a bad deal.

00:23:23I mean what he weighs today.

00:23:24I don't know.

00:23:25But you know Jones says I don't

00:23:26want to put any pressure on you.

00:23:28He said to Craig Heyward I'd

00:23:31like to have you at 250 and if

00:23:33it becomes a problem I'll touch

00:23:34you.

00:23:35That's the pressure.

00:23:37And he didn't get that first

00:23:38down either.

00:23:46He just put that big old head in

00:23:48there.

00:23:48He was mad he didn't get it the

00:23:50last time.

00:23:50He was sure he got it that time.

00:23:53He just led with his head and

00:23:54went up first down at that helm

00:23:57as big as my first house.

00:24:03That's the end of the first

00:24:04quarter.

00:24:05The Falcon 7.

00:24:07Dallas nothing but Atlanta's

00:24:09driving.

00:24:13Coming up next it's the second

00:24:14half of our Fox NFL Sunday

00:24:16doubleheader most of you'll see

00:24:17the Green Bay Packers take on

00:24:19the Detroit Lions plus other

00:24:21exciting regional action.

00:24:23Check your local listings for

00:24:24the game and time in your area

00:24:28right here at Georgia Dome at

00:24:307 nothing Atlanta Atlanta inside

00:24:33the Dallas 20 first and 10

00:24:40something that cowboys are not

00:24:42used to.

00:24:43Being behind after the first

00:24:45quarter George gets it to

00:24:48Hayward again.

00:24:53They had the right play call.

00:24:55Yeah that's the thing that

00:24:56they'll they'll run Ironhead

00:24:58Hayward and then they'll also

00:24:59block him on that roll.

00:25:01And then the other thing that

00:25:02they'll do is they'll start him

00:25:04in like a block and then

00:25:05they'll throw a screen pass to

00:25:07him and you just see him see he

00:25:09starts out like he's running at

00:25:10a blocking angle.

00:25:11He fakes the block and then he

00:25:13catches the screen pass.

00:25:15Then you get the two offensive

00:25:16linemen out front.

00:25:17Boom a good pick off there.

00:25:19And Darren Woodson has to make

00:25:21the tackle.

00:25:22They'll measure to see if he got

00:25:24the first down.

00:25:25It's inside the Dallas 10.

00:25:27They're a little bit short.

00:25:30Just a very small bit.

00:25:32The thing about Ironhead he's

00:25:33really turned his life around.

00:25:35Really as he's a changed guy and

00:25:38you have to be proud of him and

00:25:39he's he's proud of himself.

00:25:41I mean he's he's always been a

00:25:43real football player but he's a

00:25:45real man.

00:25:47Well he always smiled but now he

00:25:49smiles and he's sincere with a

00:25:50smile.

00:25:54He's proud of what you say he's

00:25:55turned his life around.

00:25:56I was talking to Russell

00:25:57Maryland last night he said when

00:25:59he was at Pittsburgh Ironhead

00:26:01was at Pittsburgh and they were

00:26:03at Maryland.

00:26:05I mean I mean when Maryland was

00:26:06at Miami said all those Miami

00:26:08defensive backs after they

00:26:09played him they were neck braces

00:26:11the next week second down it's

00:26:14short.

00:26:17It'll be first and goal with

00:26:18Atlanta.

00:26:20Leon let made the stop.

00:26:22You know what Ironhead gives

00:26:24this team to and June Jones

00:26:25talked about it the other day

00:26:26that you know this red gun is

00:26:28a finesse offense and he said

00:26:30but with Ironhead back there it

00:26:32gives you some toughness and

00:26:33it's a pretty good mixture.

00:26:34You know you got finesse and

00:26:36finesse but you can't say it's

00:26:38all finesse because you got big

00:26:40Ironhead Heyward back there

00:26:42ramming the ball at him when he

00:26:44comes out they have Jamal

00:26:46Anderson who goes about to

00:26:47get a big win for his nickname

00:26:50fat man.

00:26:51You got to love him.

00:27:01Struggles to just outside the

00:27:03five stopped by Haley.

00:27:05We were talking last night to

00:27:06the defensive coordinator of the

00:27:08Cowboys Dave Campo.

00:27:10He was saying you know you think

00:27:11of Jeff George and you think of

00:27:13the wide receivers he said but

00:27:14this is a run and shoot offense

00:27:16and the one thing you have to

00:27:18do is you have to stop that run

00:27:21that Mouse Davis is an assistant

00:27:22here was kind of the father of

00:27:25the run and shoot always starts

00:27:27off base that you have to be

00:27:28able to run the football play

00:27:30number 14 in this drive coming

00:27:33up.

00:27:33Here's a look at the play.

00:27:47That's the place to get him.

00:27:48If you're going to get Ironhead

00:27:50Heyward two things you have to

00:27:52do is one you either have to get

00:27:53him before he gets started in

00:27:55the backfield or if he does get

00:27:57started then you better hit him

00:27:59low.

00:27:59That time Chad Hennings got in

00:28:01the backfield got the

00:28:02third and a knife right through

00:28:04you see him he starts in that he

00:28:05just splits that gap and comes

00:28:07right around standoffs.

00:28:10Third and go.

00:28:12Now you got to cover him he gave

00:28:23a signal out here to Birdie

00:28:24Manuel.

00:28:25Yeah.

00:28:26And that's a signal for that

00:28:28fade and I bet they were going

00:28:29to run that fade stop again on

00:28:31the way to the plate.

00:28:32Yeah.

00:28:32And he's got a couple of

00:28:33defenders right down here.

00:28:36They got out of sync.

00:28:39Jeff George was up there calling

00:28:40a play.

00:28:41Then he looked at it.

00:28:42Birdie Manuel and he gave him a

00:28:43signal and he went back and

00:28:45never did get the ball.

00:28:48And the Cowboys move.

00:28:49Let's see who moved back to 94

00:28:50deep.

00:28:55Whatever he did it worked but

00:28:56Haley doesn't like the call at

00:28:58all.

00:28:59I can't say I blame him.

00:29:01I can't say I blame him.

00:29:04Now here's Charles Haley here

00:29:07and you're going to see that

00:29:08they do move.

00:29:09The first movement was Jeff

00:29:11George.

00:29:14That was a bad call there.

00:29:15I mean Haley knows when he sees

00:29:16something on offense move he's

00:29:18going third and goal at the

00:29:20three.

00:29:20And he was right on that.

00:29:21Yes he was.

00:29:24Now I wonder if they can throw

00:29:26that fade stop right here.

00:29:28Maybe too close.

00:29:29Maybe too close.

00:29:30Right.

00:29:30Maybe too close.

00:29:31Maybe too close.

00:29:37Play clock went all the way down

00:29:40and the Falcons had to take a

00:29:42timeout.

00:29:43That's the second time on this

00:29:44drive.

00:29:45They had to take the timeout

00:29:46because of the play clock.

00:29:48George headed up to the

00:29:49sideline.

00:29:51There is a day coming up isn't

00:29:53there.

00:29:54Called Halloween.

00:29:57Spirits are out.

00:30:00And the Falcons are in for three

00:30:05Jeff George up under the center

00:30:06back to throw the end zone

00:30:11headed for Bert Emanuel.

00:30:14Deion Sanders got a hand on it.

00:30:17Wonder why they pay him all

00:30:18those millions of dollars.

00:30:19I guess that's why I don't know

00:30:22that they wanted to work on

00:30:23Deion Sanders down there but

00:30:25Deion Sanders was covering man

00:30:27to man on Bertie Manuel and

00:30:29he was able to operate this red

00:30:31gun down close like this and

00:30:32Jeff George wasn't able to throw

00:30:34it when he wanted to.

00:30:35He had to hold it and wait a

00:30:36while and like you say then you

00:30:38just run out of room down there

00:30:40from 21 yards out Morton

00:30:42Anderson Atlanta leads 10

00:30:50nothing.

00:30:55Jones red gun working perfectly

00:30:58for the Falcons George here.

00:31:04The first thing he's going to do

00:31:06is he's going to back out and

00:31:07look to his left and then he

00:31:09doesn't see anything to his left

00:31:11that he's going to come back to

00:31:13the middle and he has nothing

00:31:14there.

00:31:15Then he's coming to his third

00:31:16wide receiver seeing he had to

00:31:17wait that long.

00:31:19And by that time Deion Sanders

00:31:21had perfect coverage on Bertie

00:31:23Manuel Morton Anderson's field

00:31:27makes it 10 nothing Atlanta.

00:31:29He kicks off a bouncy kick

00:31:32deflating home homes to the 20

00:31:41but just now here's here's

00:31:44George throwing the ball.

00:31:45Now watch.

00:31:46Watch Deion Sanders.

00:31:47The ball goes right through his

00:31:49hand.

00:31:50First of all it looked like he

00:31:51could have caught it then he

00:31:52decides that he can't catch it

00:31:53and he's going to knock it down.

00:31:54Watch the coverage right here.

00:31:55He grabs the manual a little.

00:31:57Now by that grab that brought

00:31:59him right in position to get

00:32:02between Jeff George and Bertie

00:32:03Manuel and get into the

00:32:05position.

00:32:07You know Bertie Manuel's

00:32:08telling his teammates that's

00:32:10what he did to me.

00:32:10He grabbed me by the back and I

00:32:12went up and he went by and that

00:32:15Smith gets the carry on first

00:32:20down stop by Jesse Tuggle.

00:32:25He's got the ball and he's got

00:32:27the ball and he's got the ball.

00:32:32One thing these both on offense

00:32:34and defense all of this is only

00:32:35the second time the Cowboys have

00:32:37had the ball but look like the

00:32:39Atlanta Falcons have really kept

00:32:41them out of sync.

00:32:42It looks like the Falcons have

00:32:44come out here and put the

00:32:46Cowboys on their heels.

00:32:47Well the key is they've kept the

00:32:48ball 16 plays in that drive

00:32:52and they've got the ball and

00:32:54they've got the ball.

00:33:00That 38 right now for McDonald's

00:33:04game break.

00:33:05Let's return to James Brown in

00:33:07Hollywood.

00:33:08He Pat Rodney Pete may not be

00:33:09stylish but he's been effective

00:33:11play action.

00:33:11He's got time and finds a wide

00:33:13open Calvin Williams for the

00:33:15score.

00:33:16Eagles on the board in the

00:33:17second seven nothing over the

00:33:19Rams.

00:33:19Let's take it back to Pat and

00:33:22Deion Sanders is lined up behind

00:33:25Michael Irvin on offense and

00:33:27he'll probably be a decoy.

00:33:28They'll probably fake a reverse

00:33:30to him and throw a screen

00:33:39successfully to him at Smith.

00:33:42They said that that's what they

00:33:43were going to do the first time

00:33:44you put him in on offense and

00:33:46and then the Falcons say there's

00:33:48D on there's D on.

00:33:49So instead of giving him the

00:33:50ball and throwing it to him they

00:33:52were going to fake it to him.

00:33:54So what they did is they they

00:33:55put him out there by Michael

00:33:56Irvin.

00:33:57They put him out here.

00:33:58They'll bring him here on the

00:33:59reverse fake the reverse to him

00:34:01and then they're going to throw

00:34:02a screen pass to Emmitt Smith.

00:34:04So they bring him here.

00:34:05Everyone's going 21 21.

00:34:06Look out for Dion.

00:34:08Then they were going to screen

00:34:09back to the area that he left

00:34:10from Smith again gets into

00:34:18Atlanta territory picks up about

00:34:20two to four Sanders had gone

00:34:26back to the sideline.

00:34:30Kevin Williams is back in the

00:34:31game.

00:34:33So Dion's offensive effort so

00:34:35far has been one play a decoy.

00:34:37Yeah.

00:34:38And the thing is that he's been

00:34:39out there on defense a lot today

00:34:41too.

00:34:41So you know one of the things

00:34:43that you talked about earlier in

00:34:45the pregame show and Dion talked

00:34:47about is he's not in the best

00:34:49shape of his life because he had

00:34:51the ankle injury.

00:34:52He hasn't been able to do a lot

00:34:54of running while he was

00:34:55rehabbing.

00:34:57That was Novacek on the move but

00:34:58this is Emmitt Smith straight

00:35:00ahead.

00:35:01Does not get a first down only a

00:35:03couple of yards.

00:35:04The guy number 73 down in the

00:35:06ground that Larry Allen I think

00:35:08right now although although he

00:35:10was beaten one time today by Mo

00:35:12Gardner but I think he's the

00:35:13best guard in football right now

00:35:15he can be devastating.

00:35:16You watch the things that he

00:35:17does on run blocking and on pass

00:35:20protection.

00:35:21I mean he just fires out and

00:35:23knocks him backwards.

00:35:27Three hundred and twenty six

00:35:28pounds at least he doesn't look

00:35:30that big.

00:35:34Two yard.

00:35:36Eighth and.

00:35:41Is that a pretty good move.

00:35:44He just gave a hip slap to DJ

00:35:46Johnson.

00:35:47That's a that's a that's a

00:35:49defensive lineman pass rush move

00:35:52which is when he catches the

00:35:53ball.

00:35:54DJ Johnson is number 44.

00:35:56But watch him when he catches the

00:35:58ball.

00:35:58He's just going to give him a

00:35:59head slap with a head slap with

00:36:01his right hand.

00:36:03I guess we're going to get it

00:36:04right here.

00:36:05That's the headset right there.

00:36:06He just gives him a head slap

00:36:07pushes him right push and then

00:36:09just go.

00:36:10Oh wait.

00:36:11He'd already beaten him with the

00:36:12fake.

00:36:15He just accentuated it with the

00:36:16push.

00:36:18No.

00:36:18The check on the move.

00:36:24A little bit behind him.

00:36:28DJ Johnson and Harper.

00:36:30Close by urban Roger Harper's

00:36:33number forty seven and he is a

00:36:35big free safety.

00:36:36He weighs about two hundred and

00:36:37thirty pounds.

00:36:38So when you run in there you see

00:36:40that forty seven and he's

00:36:41playing deep in there that deep

00:36:43safety.

00:36:44That's like running into a

00:36:45linebacker.

00:36:46I mean that Harper's a big guy.

00:36:49See and now Michael Irvin

00:36:50doesn't want to run anymore and

00:36:52and Troy Aikman doesn't want to

00:36:54lead him into Harper.

00:36:55Right.

00:36:56Part of that is Mike Irvin

00:36:57coming under control.

00:36:59The other part is Troy Aikman

00:37:00not leading him into that

00:37:01safety on second down it's Emmett

00:37:03Smith and Emmett inside the 10

00:37:09Harper and Ross converge on

00:37:13this defensive line is beaten up

00:37:15and they can't stop Emmett Smith

00:37:17and I think that the Cowboys are

00:37:18starting to realize that that

00:37:20they're just going to give today

00:37:22a heavy dose of Emmett Smith.

00:37:23I mean that big offensive line

00:37:25just rolling up guys making big

00:37:27holes for Emmett.

00:37:28Of course at the end there's

00:37:29still going to be four or five

00:37:30guys there to get him first and

00:37:33go with the nine.

00:37:36This drive has been in its

00:37:39gets down to about the five and

00:37:40a half.

00:37:44They know that moose everywhere

00:37:45don't they.

00:37:46Yeah.

00:37:47In fact June Jones was able for

00:37:48the game he said he said there's

00:37:50going to be so many Cowboy fans

00:37:52here today that we may have to

00:37:53have our guys using earplugs.

00:37:56Well that's the thing about the

00:37:57Cowboys wherever they go.

00:38:00The hotel the stadium there's a

00:38:04Oh yeah.

00:38:05They have the.

00:38:06You talk about lobbies and all

00:38:08league lobbies and all pro and

00:38:09all time lobbies.

00:38:11A Saturday night Dallas Cowboy

00:38:13lobby is an all time all pro

00:38:15lobby to about the one foot line

00:38:22as Emmett Smith stopped and

00:38:24finally wrestled down by Clay

00:38:25Matthews.

00:38:26That's not a bad place to run if

00:38:28you're going to run.

00:38:29You're going to run.

00:38:30You're going to run.

00:38:31You're going to run.

00:38:32You're going to run.

00:38:33You're going to run.

00:38:34You're going to run.

00:38:35Get behind Larry Allen and Eric

00:38:36Williams that's about 700 pounds

00:38:39a guy right there.

00:38:40But here's Larry Allen right

00:38:42here and here's Eric Williams.

00:38:44And you just watch how they just

00:38:45fire out on their guys and just

00:38:47move them right off.

00:38:48And then the guys that they

00:38:50don't move off Darrell Johnston

00:38:52will move off for him.

00:38:55This is a two tight end set up

00:38:57stone.

00:38:59This is Novacek in the.

00:39:01This is Emmett Smith.

00:39:02He's going to go ahead and get

00:39:03him in the end zone first.

00:39:07That drive with one exception

00:39:12number 22 with a lot of help

00:39:26from his offensive line and a

00:39:28lot of help from Darrell

00:39:29Johnston.

00:39:30We know that whole look that he

00:39:32has on his face.

00:39:33He's got a lot of power.

00:39:34He's got a lot of power.

00:39:35And the payoff there to me is

00:39:36determination and competitor

00:39:43on y'all's extra point is good.

00:39:45You talk about competitor.

00:39:48No one is more competitive than

00:39:50Emmett Smith.

00:39:52Seven carries forty five yards

00:39:53on that drive plus the pass

00:39:55reception on the screen when the

00:39:58play that Deon was in.

00:40:00And you'll be there while you're

00:40:03clearing away.

00:40:05Yeah I'm going I'm going to Las

00:40:07Vegas right from here.

00:40:07Yeah.

00:40:10Preston flag on the play Greg

00:40:18Briggs down to bring him down.

00:40:23You know in every game you have

00:40:24momentum within a game and then

00:40:27you have momentum changers.

00:40:30And I think you know the

00:40:31Falcons had the momentum only 50

00:40:34on the return team 10 yards

00:40:37first down timeout and then

00:40:40Emmett Smith became the the

00:40:42changer 10 7 second quarter

00:40:47Atlanta leaving down leading

00:40:48Dallas which family has played

00:40:51the most NFL game which family

00:40:57has played the most NFL game.

00:41:00And that's what we're going to

00:41:00talk about in just a moment.

00:41:06Jadon in Atlanta the Falcons 10

00:41:10Dallas 7 Pat Summerall John

00:41:13Madden Atlanta ball after the

00:41:17penalty back at their own 11

00:41:19yard line.

00:41:19And now it's up and down in a

00:41:29hurry.

00:41:31Brock Marion on top of it.

00:41:33The at black question of the

00:41:35week again which family has

00:41:36played the most NFL games.

00:41:40Yeah if it wasn't played you'd

00:41:41think of mirrors and Rooney

00:41:43right.

00:41:44Models and guys like that but

00:41:46since you're playing it has to

00:41:47be the Matthews family.

00:41:49Matthews is the senior the

00:41:51father he played for the 49ers

00:41:53played junior of course plays

00:41:56for the Atlanta Falcons and

00:41:57Bruce plays for Houston and when

00:42:00Bruce steps on today that will

00:42:02be the five hundred NFL regular

00:42:04season game this family's play

00:42:08this is by Scott case could be

00:42:16another Matthews on the way up.

00:42:18Here they are.

00:42:21They all have their Falcon

00:42:22jerseys on and their D on who

00:42:24signs.

00:42:26Here's all the Matthews kids.

00:42:28Look at that man.

00:42:29Look at that Matthews there was

00:42:32Clay senior played here an

00:42:38all-American at Georgia Tech.

00:42:41That's a big old group of

00:42:42Matthews third down about five.

00:42:46Jeff George chased him down by

00:42:48Haley matter of time after it

00:42:51was just a matter of time and

00:42:52they had to do that.

00:42:54They said that the offensive

00:42:56momentum changer was Emmitt

00:42:57Smith.

00:42:58Charles Haley is one of those

00:42:59momentum changers.

00:43:01So he just kind of goes with it.

00:43:02Here he is.

00:43:05And Charles Haley can do it with

00:43:06strength or speed.

00:43:07Here he just does it with speed.

00:43:09He gets past Bob Whitfield

00:43:11before Whitfield really gets out

00:43:12of his stance by the time

00:43:13Whitfield gets up there and

00:43:15ready to go Charles Haley is

00:43:16already beyond his outside

00:43:18shoulder homes back deep and

00:43:24Straczynski is the Falcon

00:43:28Ponderosa kick homes coming over

00:43:33single and catch it goes out of

00:43:35bound Dallas will take over at

00:43:40their own forty six forty four

00:43:43yard punt out of the end zone

00:43:44coming up next don't forget

00:43:46Green Bay Detroit New Orleans

00:43:48San Francisco and Tampa Bay

00:43:49against Houston that's that game

00:43:52you're just talking about when

00:43:54another Matthews steps on the

00:43:55field.

00:43:56And when that happens Bruce

00:43:58Matthews for Houston again that

00:44:00will be the five hundredth game

00:44:02the Matthews family has played

00:44:06Atlanta 10 Dallas 7 Dallas first

00:44:09and 10 at their own forty six

00:44:11see how the forty niners do

00:44:13today with Elvis Grubach start

00:44:15in the second game.

00:44:16He did very well last week.

00:44:18He did.

00:44:19Eggman I think this is all the

00:44:34Cowboys needs.

00:44:34They just needed their defense

00:44:36to give him the ball.

00:44:37I mean early in that first

00:44:38quarter.

00:44:38And the Cowboys just didn't have

00:44:40it because when you get it and

00:44:42this team has Michael Irvin out

00:44:43there and they have J.

00:44:44Novacek and they have Emmitt

00:44:46Smith and they can hand it to

00:44:47that big offensive line.

00:44:48Johnson leading.

00:44:49I don't think there's any

00:44:50defense in this league that can

00:44:51stop him.

00:44:52You just got to keep the ball

00:44:53away from him.

00:44:54That's probably the best defense

00:44:56that no turnover and that Smith

00:44:58so they Atlanta 40.

00:45:03And the Cowboys are going to

00:45:04take a look at the game.

00:45:05They're going to take a look at

00:45:06the game.

00:45:07They're going to take a look at

00:45:07the game.

00:45:08They're going to take a look at

00:45:09the game and then they just give

00:45:12him a heavy dose of Emmitt Smith

00:45:13because this this defense can't

00:45:16stop Emmitt Smith and they know

00:45:18this defensive line can't handle

00:45:20the Cowboy offensive line and

00:45:22they can't handle Emmitt Smith.

00:45:24You know you know I mean this is

00:45:25kind of the midpoint in the in

00:45:27the season and I would think if

00:45:30I had a picture who's the best

00:45:32player in the NFL right now.

00:45:34I'd have to say it's Emmitt

00:45:35Smith.

00:45:36I'm not going to make an

00:45:37argument because I'm not sure

00:45:38who the second best guy would

00:45:39be.

00:45:44This time and he gets a Dallas

00:45:45first down at the twenty five.

00:45:48He's got so many places that he

00:45:50can go and he can get it to him.

00:45:51Maybe that's the second best guy

00:45:53right there.

00:45:53Troy Aikman which is scary when

00:45:55you have the first best player

00:45:56and the second best player in

00:45:58the whole league.

00:45:59Troy Aikman was saying last

00:46:01night that he wants to get the

00:46:03ball more to Kevin Williams.

00:46:04He said it's not Kevin Williams

00:46:06and he said he looked at the

00:46:07last game they played and even

00:46:09told Kevin Williams he said you

00:46:10know that I have to get you the

00:46:12ball more.

00:46:12You've been open.

00:46:14You've done everything that

00:46:15you've been asked of and I just

00:46:17haven't done my part for you.

00:46:21Cowboys go with Kendall Watkins

00:46:22two tight ends Aikman back to

00:46:24throw it.

00:46:31Anthony Phillips the defender

00:46:32intended for Earth and we have

00:46:35two minutes left to play in the

00:46:37first half.

00:46:39Atlanta 10 Dallas 7 home at

00:46:46Georgia Dome that the they don't

00:46:49acknowledge in Atlanta.

00:46:51You know one guy that hasn't

00:46:53caught a pass yet in this game

00:46:54is Jay Novichak.

00:46:56You'd expect that one of those

00:46:57should be coming up shortly.

00:47:00This would be a good down right

00:47:02here.

00:47:02It's a good down for him.

00:47:03It's almost broke it tripped up

00:47:09by Tugler.

00:47:10He was in the end zone.

00:47:12Yeah I think right now that the

00:47:14Cowboys know that they can't

00:47:16stop him.

00:47:16It's just running here in this

00:47:17left side.

00:47:19It's a draw.

00:47:19They get Chris Dolman up the

00:47:21field.

00:47:21Chris Dolman is rushing the

00:47:23passer Mark to and he just

00:47:24pushes him by Dolman just runs

00:47:26himself out and create such a

00:47:28big hole that you could darn

00:47:30near drive something through it.

00:47:32Did you see the block that Nate

00:47:33Newton got on gathers.

00:47:35Yeah Nate.

00:47:36Nate got that drive.

00:47:37Well that's that's that's the

00:47:38other part of the play.

00:47:41Aikman Smith at the five where

00:47:47it will be first and gold

00:47:49Dallas.

00:47:50Yeah Nate got another good block

00:47:51on jumping gathers there that

00:47:53really helped open that hole for

00:47:54Troy Aikman to throw the ball.

00:47:56Watch Nate here.

00:47:57He'll drive jumping gathers in

00:47:59here.

00:47:59We get it out here and this is

00:48:01the lane that Troy Aikman

00:48:02throws the ball.

00:48:03You see you not only have to

00:48:04have an open guy but you see

00:48:06Nate Newton coming down there he

00:48:07knocks jumpy gathers all the way

00:48:09out of that line and then Troy

00:48:11Aikman can just in essence play

00:48:13catch with Emmitt Smith.

00:48:17This is a Dallas timeout.

00:48:20Don't forget coming up the have

00:48:22the Dockers halftime J.B. and

00:48:24Terry scores around the NFL and

00:48:27Buster Mathis Junior.

00:48:31An interview you know there's a

00:48:36there's a there's a helmet down

00:48:38there in the field.

00:48:39Someone left their helmet out

00:48:40there in the field.

00:48:42Kevin Williams has just taken it

00:48:44off.

00:48:45Kevin Williams.

00:48:46There was there was Michael

00:48:47Irvin there was.

00:48:48Yeah but there ought to be a

00:48:48head and every helmet should be.

00:48:50So there was there was a helmet

00:48:51was in the huddle with no head.

00:48:53Well it's Halloween.

00:48:54I know Michael Irvin just left

00:48:56his helmet in the huddle and

00:48:59walked off the field.

00:49:02Ron Stone now we started to say

00:49:04this a minute ago is lined up as

00:49:06an eligible receiver a tight end

00:49:08on the right side.

00:49:18A dose of Emmitt I think a heavy

00:49:21dose of Emmitt because I think

00:49:22the Cowboys know that the

00:49:24Falcons can't stop them and I

00:49:25think the Falcons know that they

00:49:27can't stop Emmitt Smith and it's

00:49:30just going to be just just

00:49:32enough to do you know slow down

00:49:34the pass rush too and after a

00:49:36while once you can't stop Emmitt

00:49:37Smith then the Cowboys can do

00:49:39anything they want to second and

00:49:41go from the two.

00:49:54Tiffins came across he saw that

00:49:56Daryl Johnston got a good lead

00:49:58and he's going to get a good

00:49:59block.

00:50:00Watch number 48.

00:50:01Johnson here he's going to get a

00:50:03good block.

00:50:04Emmitt Smith starts to run off

00:50:06and whack right there comes

00:50:08Tiffins from the side and Dallas

00:50:137 Dallas has a third and goal of

00:50:15the one they have used all of

00:50:21the time I think there's almost

00:50:32forces a passing situation as

00:50:35you either want to throw the

00:50:37ball and then it's either a

00:50:39touchdown or it's incomplete and

00:50:41you can kick your field goal.

00:50:45Well a dose of Emmitt wouldn't

00:50:47have any timeouts left the past

00:50:57and see the Falcon should have

00:50:58known that the Cowboys didn't

00:51:00have any time out at all.

00:51:01The ball was on the one yard

00:51:02line to say that they had to

00:51:05throw the ball or the or time

00:51:07would have ran out if they

00:51:08didn't make it.

00:51:10So what they did is they is

00:51:12they'd run a play fake.

00:51:14You see they fake the run and

00:51:15fake the run and they fake right

00:51:17in here.

00:51:18Novacek runs a crossing pattern.

00:51:20He's just running the deep line

00:51:22the back line.

00:51:23You have a crossing pattern in

00:51:25front of him right in the goal

00:51:26line and you have J.

00:51:27Novacek coming across on the

00:51:29back line with nobody else even

00:51:31in the picture they all went for

00:51:34the play fake but they shouldn't

00:51:35have a touchdown pass from

00:51:42Aikman to J.

00:51:43Novacek and as you said before

00:51:44that's the first pass he's got

00:51:46today.

00:51:46Yeah.

00:51:47You knew that eventually they

00:51:48were going to start looking at

00:51:49J.

00:51:49Novacek because he's one of Troy

00:51:51Aikman's favorite.

00:51:53I think again you know we talk

00:51:55about the Falcons they had the

00:51:56momentum they had everything

00:51:57going and then this guy right

00:51:59here came on in and took the

00:52:01game over and then he got the

00:52:02momentum back for the Cowboys

00:52:04and then once they couldn't stop

00:52:06Emmett then anything and

00:52:08everything is going to go for

00:52:09this offense.

00:52:10I'm not going to say how about

00:52:12what happened here last night at

00:52:14Fulton County Stadium which is

00:52:16the one on the right side of

00:52:17your picture and the new one the

00:52:20one on the left the incomplete

00:52:21one is the Olympic Stadium

00:52:26that's where the opening

00:52:27ceremonies will be held.

00:52:28That's the Olympic Stadium.

00:52:29Here's where the Atlanta Braves

00:52:31won the World Series last night.

00:52:34I'll tell you that was

00:52:35something.

00:52:36I mean it's a big deal.

00:52:37I mean it's a big deal.

00:52:38I'll tell you that was

00:52:39something being here and watching

00:52:42the game on television and then

00:52:44stand up and watch it all the

00:52:45news all night.

00:52:46They were celebrating.

00:52:47I don't know.

00:52:48I went to bed around 12 or 1 and

00:52:50they were still in the street

00:52:51celebrate.

00:52:52I think a lot of people might

00:52:53still be in the streets because

00:52:55there's some empty.

00:52:55I don't know where Peach Street

00:52:57is but I know that Peach Street

00:52:58was closed down and I think

00:53:00there's a lot of Peach Streets

00:53:01in this town.

00:53:02A lot of them.

00:53:03Believe me.

00:53:06Flag on the play.

00:53:08Ken Tiffin returned it.

00:53:16Dallas leading by four.

00:53:19Penalty marker on the play on

00:53:20the return against Atlanta.

00:53:25Falcons have one time out left

00:53:27holding number 27 of the

00:53:29receiving team 10 yards from the

00:53:31spot on the foul.

00:53:32First down all against Brad

00:53:35Edwards.

00:53:36Twelve seconds left.

00:53:37Look at this touchdown again.

00:53:39But the first guy that's there

00:53:41to congratulate him is Troy

00:53:43Aikman and then a guy who's not

00:53:45even in the game doesn't even

00:53:46have his helmet on.

00:53:48Comes back to him on the back

00:53:50pats him on the head takes the

00:53:51ball from him and runs it off.

00:53:53Michael Irvin what's that all

00:53:54about.

00:53:55Well Novak's got to stay in the

00:53:57hole for the extra point.

00:53:59Oh so yeah.

00:54:00So Michael Irvin does

00:54:01everything.

00:54:02I mean he leaves his hat and the

00:54:03helmet.

00:54:04They didn't and he comes up take

00:54:06care of the ball for you.

00:54:07I get it.

00:54:10Jeff George Terrence Matthews

00:54:16that should be the last play of

00:54:20the first half although the

00:54:21Falcons do have one time out

00:54:22left and they stop it with two

00:54:24seconds to go.

00:54:26One of the thing that Deion

00:54:27Sanders was talking about you

00:54:28know as we saw Michael Irvin

00:54:30come in and take the ball from

00:54:31Jay Novacek he said that this

00:54:34team the Cowboys is really a fun

00:54:36team to play for.

00:54:37He said it's more like playing

00:54:39in high school than it is like

00:54:40playing in the National Football

00:54:42League.

00:54:43Of course Deion has a lot of

00:54:45Florida friends as you were

00:54:46reporting it pointing out

00:54:47yesterday on this team Michael

00:54:50Irvin Emmitt Smith Nate Newton

00:54:54Nate Newton from Orlando.

00:54:59Here's Nate Newton right there.

00:55:00He's trying to he's trying to

00:55:01find his belt.

00:55:03I think Nate's been blocking

00:55:04jumpy gathers which is a full

00:55:06time job and he's done it for a

00:55:08half and in that process lost

00:55:10his belt because his belt is

00:55:12down in there somewhere.

00:55:13I think it's been a long time

00:55:15since he since he found his

00:55:16belt.

00:55:17Well you have.

00:55:18I mean you know you go from a

00:55:19point in life where you can see

00:55:21it to a point where you just

00:55:23have to feel for it.

00:55:24Oh second home made the stop.

00:55:38That's gonna be awful.

00:55:40I know there are first hands

00:55:42just looking like with somebody

00:55:44run into 14 10 Dallas at the

00:55:50and a half 10 at the half at

00:55:57Georgia Dome that stone mountain

00:55:59in the distance that summer all

00:56:02here with John Madden and I

00:56:04think you'd have to say the

00:56:05Falcons early on in the going

00:56:07had the Cowboys on their heels.

00:56:09Yeah they did.

00:56:09I think you know the first

00:56:11quarter was the Falcons quarter

00:56:12and they they came out and

00:56:14everyone's worried about Deon's

00:56:15going here Deon's going here and

00:56:16Jeff George just took the

00:56:18Falcons right down in the

00:56:19Cowboys you really didn't adjust

00:56:21to this new defense then in the

00:56:23second quarter it looked like

00:56:25the Cowboys kind of took over

00:56:27and Emmett Smith says hey enough

00:56:29of this lets us start playing

00:56:31cowboy football and they did

00:56:33that would be reflected

00:56:35certainly in these statistics

00:56:36these are done by quarter.

00:56:38Look how the Falcons dominated

00:56:40first quarter one hundred and

00:56:41thirty two to forty four in

00:56:43total yards and in time of

00:56:46possession they dominated as

00:56:48well and in score and then and

00:56:50then you go to the second

00:56:51quarter and then you see that

00:56:53the Cowboys take over all that

00:56:55that they get one hundred and

00:56:56thirty four yards now to the

00:56:58thirty eight yards of the of the

00:57:00Falcons.

00:57:01One big thing and I think the

00:57:02reason that this game is so so

00:57:04close is that there haven't been

00:57:06any turnovers and especially

00:57:08this one right here.

00:57:09I think that's real big.

00:57:11Like I said earlier if the

00:57:12Falcons are going to stay in

00:57:14this game they have to keep

00:57:16those turnovers down to done

00:57:19none done Morton Anderson set to

00:57:29kick off for Atlanta but he was

00:57:32a great addition for this team

00:57:33was I was I was shocked when the

00:57:35Saints let him go and I think it

00:57:38was just they were trying to

00:57:38restructure a contractor get him

00:57:40to take less money but you can't

00:57:43take a talent like a Morton

00:57:44Anderson and leave him out there

00:57:46for even a day.

00:57:48I don't think the the Saints

00:57:50thought that he would leave New

00:57:51Orleans.

00:57:59Remember Clayton one rubber

00:58:01plate.

00:58:02The last play of the half.

00:58:03There's Ironhead Heyward.

00:58:05He got the ball now watch him

00:58:06he's going to break loose.

00:58:08Now here you are you're Clayton

00:58:09Holmes you weigh about 160

00:58:11pounds and you've got to take

00:58:13that 250 pound load coming at

00:58:15you.

00:58:15We added the sound.

00:58:18I think it was more of a thing

00:58:19like that and some crash and

00:58:20crinkle Ironhead looking for

00:58:23somebody to run into.

00:58:25Oh yeah.

00:58:25Because that was the last play

00:58:26time and run out.

00:58:28He knew he wasn't going to go

00:58:29all the way.

00:58:30Although that will help his

00:58:31rushing staff on first down

00:58:34Smith tripped up by a juggle

00:58:37right at the line of scrimmage.

00:58:39That's one thing about Tugwell

00:58:40he's right here.

00:58:41See they stacked their three

00:58:42linebackers like like Dallas

00:58:44does.

00:58:45I mean everyone's doing that now

00:58:46Tugwell be in the middle guy.

00:58:47And when when Darryl Johnston

00:58:49starts his league Tugwell hits

00:58:51that hole but misses Darryl

00:58:54Johnston.

00:58:56He's a guy that nobody thought

00:58:58was number one big enough to

00:59:00play.

00:59:00Number two from a small school

00:59:02in South Georgia.

00:59:05It's a lot of tackle.

00:59:05Got a nose for the ball as they

00:59:06say.

00:59:11Michael Irvin makes the catch

00:59:14tackle from behind and he's

00:59:15hurt.

00:59:18He's one of those guys who

00:59:19doesn't allow himself to be hurt

00:59:21very often.

00:59:22He's in such great condition and

00:59:24then so strong that if he gets

00:59:27hurt it doesn't last very long.

00:59:29That's right.

00:59:32Darryl Johnston.

00:59:33Darryl Johnston heads out.

00:59:35Dallas will go with three wide

00:59:36receivers the two normal ones

00:59:38Irvin.

00:59:39Kevin Williams and now Corey

00:59:41Fleming.

00:59:52First down Dallas to Kevin

00:59:54Williams from Aikman.

00:59:56That's what Troy Aikman said

00:59:57last night he wants to do.

00:59:59He said that he felt that he

01:00:00hasn't been getting a ball in

01:00:01Kevin Williams is in the slot

01:00:03and you're just going to see him

01:00:04come up.

01:00:05He's going to make a little move

01:00:06to the inside.

01:00:07Then he's going to go back to

01:00:08the outside.

01:00:09Troy Aikman hits him perfectly.

01:00:12Sanders now in a wide receiver

01:00:14for the Cowboys.

01:00:16I think that first time they

01:00:17were they faked the reverse to

01:00:19him.

01:00:19This time I think they have a

01:00:21play for him now whether they'll

01:00:22throw it to him or not but he's

01:00:24going to be involved in this

01:00:25play.

01:00:27Aikman back to the outside.

01:00:28Makes the reception short of a

01:00:31first down stop by Anthony

01:00:32Phillips and they had Deion

01:00:34Sanders.

01:00:35That was one of the patterns I

01:00:36have for him.

01:00:37That's called a post pattern and

01:00:40you see Deion is going to be out

01:00:41here and he's going to run up in

01:00:42here and into the post deep.

01:00:44But you can see that they're

01:00:45waiting for him to go deep to

01:00:47the corners just running off not

01:00:49going to let him catch him.

01:00:50Then there's going to be a

01:00:51safety weight in this play.

01:00:53And he's going to be able to

01:00:54catch him.

01:00:55He's going to be able to catch

01:00:55him.

01:00:56He's going to be able to catch

01:00:56him.

01:00:57And then there's going to be a

01:00:58safety waiting in there too.

01:01:00So that that read brings Troy

01:01:02Aikman back to this single

01:01:04coverage.

01:01:05And any time you get single

01:01:06coverage like that on Michael

01:01:07Irvin I guarantee you and Troy

01:01:09Aikman sees it that's where he's

01:01:11going.

01:01:13To Darryl Johnston first down

01:01:15Dallas they only needed a

01:01:16couple.

01:01:20Moose he likes pounding in there

01:01:22behind Larry Allen and big Eric

01:01:24Williams.

01:01:25Eric Williams.

01:01:27You know he's still rehabbing

01:01:28that knee.

01:01:29I mean he's not back to 100

01:01:30percent.

01:01:31But when he gets back to where

01:01:34he was he was the best

01:01:36offensive lineman.

01:01:37I mean forget guard or tackle or

01:01:38center.

01:01:39He was the best offensive

01:01:40lineman in all of football as

01:01:42has been said by many.

01:01:44Seventy five percent of Eric

01:01:45Williams is better than most.

01:01:47Well I mean he's so big and

01:01:48strong and powerful and he plays

01:01:50with a defensive attitude.

01:01:53Here's Aikman.

01:01:54Here's Michael Irvin.

01:01:58For the bundle to Irvin.

01:02:01Touchdown.

01:02:04Michael Irvin.

01:02:09Not many people would make that

01:02:11catch.

01:02:13We're talking about what great

01:02:14shape he is and how powerful he

01:02:16is and big and strong and he

01:02:18used it all on that play.

01:02:24And then when he's getting

01:02:25there and he's got that

01:02:26perfectly perfect coverage on

01:02:27the 6 5 6 he really has pretty

01:02:30good coverage on him.

01:02:32Watch me give him a little stop

01:02:33and go.

01:02:34Phillips really doesn't go for

01:02:35it.

01:02:35He pushes away with the left

01:02:37hands.

01:02:37He gets that left hand up there

01:02:39just enough to hold him to hold

01:02:41Phillips there so he can go up

01:02:43for it.

01:02:44Looked as if the official

01:02:45nearby almost went for his

01:02:48handkerchief and then didn't

01:02:49call it.

01:02:50Oh Michael Irvin did it twice he

01:02:52gave him a left hand brought it

01:02:53The Falcon's 10 of a pumpkin.

01:02:58Yeah I did but I didn't put that

01:03:00much in.

01:03:01I used to just like kind of make

01:03:03a hole in the pumpkin and punch

01:03:04it through and then punch holes

01:03:05in it.

01:03:06And then you have to say those

01:03:07are the eyes and that's about

01:03:08that was it.

01:03:09Then you put a can or some light

01:03:11in it.

01:03:11Yeah.

01:03:11And like mine always had teeth

01:03:13problems.

01:03:14I didn't even try for teeth.

01:03:16I just tried for mouth.

01:03:18You know if you got two eyes and

01:03:19a mouth and a mouth and a mouth

01:03:21and a mouth and a mouth and a

01:03:22mouth and a mouth and a mouth

01:03:23and a mouth I thought now you're

01:03:24talking about a pumpkin.

01:03:27Michael Irvin has now gained 100

01:03:29yards in six straight games.

01:03:31Speaking of eyes watch his.

01:03:33Yeah but how about that hand.

01:03:34He not only you know we saw the

01:03:36push earlier but when you look

01:03:38at it again he had a push and a

01:03:41pull on Anthony Phillips and a

01:03:44Cheechee Rodriguez.

01:03:48But he does it.

01:03:49I mean his his positioning and

01:03:51his concentration and his hands

01:03:54and his strength.

01:03:55I mean that that combination and

01:03:57then plus the confidence that

01:03:59Troy Aikman has in him.

01:04:01He is darn near unstoppable.

01:04:03Jamal Anderson is the deep back.

01:04:06Here's George.

01:04:13You look where Jamal Anderson's

01:04:15power is it's really you know

01:04:16down below from his waist on

01:04:18down.

01:04:19He's a fastball in fact his

01:04:21nickname is fat fat fat fat.

01:04:24Yeah.

01:04:25Yeah.

01:04:25FAT FAT and that's from the

01:04:28waist on down and what they do

01:04:33is they put him in for Ironhead

01:04:35Hayward just as a change of

01:04:37pace.

01:04:38Well he's 240 Ironhead 250 so

01:04:43it's not that much of a change

01:04:44in pace.

01:04:45Yeah but Anderson's a little

01:04:46quicker.

01:04:47And he's got a flag on the play

01:04:49comes flying in.

01:04:51Robert Jones on the stop.

01:04:55Hayward gets a rest.

01:04:57Rod Blum the referee.

01:05:01The other change of pace that

01:05:02they get is sometimes they put

01:05:03Eric Metcalf back there and

01:05:06Iron Hayward in the slot.

01:05:07Now that's a change of pace and

01:05:08that's where you get some real

01:05:09quickness and speed back there

01:05:11and fat fat's not in their fat

01:05:13fats in there when Ironhead is

01:05:15not in there.

01:05:17That's a 21 defense lined up in

01:05:19a neutral zone five yards with

01:05:21each second down.

01:05:22Yeah.

01:05:23Yeah.

01:05:23Your cornerback is off side.

01:05:26That'll go down to some kind of

01:05:28record.

01:05:28That's Deion Sanders his first

01:05:30penalty as a cowboy.

01:05:33And then you know that's for

01:05:34playing that tight coverage.

01:05:36That man on man that that bump

01:05:38and run you get up there and you

01:05:40want to bump the guy when he's

01:05:41the flanker he's off the line.

01:05:43Sometimes he'll bring you across

01:05:45that line.

01:05:46So you got to be careful.

01:05:47That's a good point.

01:05:48Five Anderson got a couple.

01:05:55Russell Maryland made the stop.

01:05:58I think even though Atlanta is

01:05:59down 21 to 10 they don't want to

01:06:02go into a panic mode.

01:06:04I mean they still have plenty of

01:06:05time.

01:06:05What they're trying to do is get

01:06:06a little change of pace here

01:06:08still keep their running not go

01:06:10where they just have to pass

01:06:11every down and just kind of get

01:06:14things going get some first

01:06:16control.

01:06:16And that's what they've been

01:06:17doing all day.

01:06:18They've been trying to get some

01:06:20control back of this game down

01:06:26a long yard first down Falcon

01:06:33Robert Jones again number 55 on

01:06:37the stop.

01:06:39Twenty one ten cowboys leading

01:06:42the other cowboys are really

01:06:44struggling with two linebackers

01:06:45all day.

01:06:46They've had Robert Jones in

01:06:48there and then Darren Smith the

01:06:50two linebackers five defensive

01:06:53backs Scott case being the extra

01:06:55defensive back and other than

01:06:57third and long yardage they've

01:06:58played that pretty much as their

01:07:00standard defense Darren Smith.

01:07:02This is his first game back to

01:07:07work out against this running

01:07:09down and he goes Haley in a game

01:07:21with lead.

01:07:23You see Charles Haley right here

01:07:26he's lined up on the tight end

01:07:27he starts to the inside.

01:07:29Like you said Leon let's started

01:07:31to the outside Charles Haley the

01:07:33end goes to the inside and they

01:07:36do this better than anyone see

01:07:37Charles Haley goes to the left

01:07:39around the corner and look what

01:07:41he found lead occupies two and

01:07:44Haley's so quick he can get in

01:07:45behind him by it by by just

01:07:49getting penetration he knocked

01:07:50off that Anderson the ball

01:07:55carrier again it's Robert Jones

01:07:59and that's why I've always had

01:08:00so much respect for Charles

01:08:02Haley because we talked about a

01:08:04momentum changer and now Emmitt

01:08:05Smith did it on offense Charles

01:08:07Haley did it on defense too.

01:08:09I mean he came in and he and he

01:08:11you know the Falcons were going

01:08:13go go boom he gets a sack they

01:08:15start to try and run and get

01:08:16something down here.

01:08:17Boom he gets a sack and puts him

01:08:18in a long yardage third and 14

01:08:22Haley gets a rest.

01:08:23They got a baby in there on

01:08:25third and 14.

01:08:25That's what I want him there.

01:08:27Take Carver and right defensive

01:08:30field double pass to Anderson.

01:08:38He's close to a first down if he

01:08:40didn't get it.

01:08:43See he has that speed there that

01:08:45Craig Hayward does now that

01:08:47little burst that he could get

01:08:49right there in the middle and

01:08:50then at the end that extension

01:08:52at the end came very close to

01:08:54getting him a first down I think

01:08:57if you're June Jones you're

01:08:58hoping like heck that this is a

01:08:59you know that he's going to make

01:09:01a decision here to go for it on

01:09:02fourth down.

01:09:03You think his decision would be

01:09:05go.

01:09:05Well you see his head just jerk

01:09:07back.

01:09:07No you don't want to make that

01:09:08decision.

01:09:09Not not with eight minutes and

01:09:11two seconds to go in the third

01:09:12quarter.

01:09:13You want this to happen.

01:09:15No decision he'll have to make.

01:09:20They have a lot of different

01:09:21passes in this offense.

01:09:22This is kind of a shovel pass.

01:09:25You know it's kind of a shovel

01:09:26half pitch thing but it's really

01:09:28a screen pass.

01:09:29Yeah.

01:09:29And what they do is they invite

01:09:31that defensive end Tony Tolbert

01:09:33to come up and they wait for him

01:09:34and they make him make the

01:09:36commitment to the quarterback.

01:09:37Then they just get it to the

01:09:39back anyway they can.

01:09:41They got the first down.

01:09:45Rivers coming to Metcalf.

01:09:49Metcalf no place to go.

01:09:50Robert Jones again and Charles

01:09:54Haley there too.

01:09:55They were trying to get around

01:09:56Charles Haley.

01:09:57They did get around it but then

01:09:58they got around it.

01:09:59They got around it too.

01:10:02They had this played well.

01:10:04Well here's a good to be Haley

01:10:06here.

01:10:06He starts to the inside.

01:10:08Jones starts in here.

01:10:10Jones starts back and then he

01:10:12gets him to cut back inside and

01:10:14then right there is Jones and

01:10:15there's Haley waiting again to

01:10:18the guy that really made that

01:10:19play that was Darren Smith.

01:10:21Because he made him cut back

01:10:23right into Jones and then Jones

01:10:24made him cut back into Haley

01:10:26and then he gets it to Metcalf

01:10:27and throwing down for George.

01:10:31He has time he gets it to

01:10:33Metcalf.

01:10:36Metcalf out of bounds and

01:10:37Atlanta first down at the

01:10:39Dallas 41.

01:10:41They can move the ball with this

01:10:43up if they can get the pass

01:10:45protection.

01:10:46That's a big thing and they did

01:10:47that time and Bob Whitfield did

01:10:49a good job on on Charles Haley.

01:10:52You know there was no stun or

01:10:53anything and that gives Eric

01:10:55a chance to get a chance to get

01:10:56a chance to get a chance to get

01:10:57a chance to get a shot like this

01:10:58and any time you run a crossing

01:11:00pattern at some point on that

01:11:03cross you're going to be open

01:11:05and Jeff George if he has time

01:11:07and protection he'll see you

01:11:09this an offense made for Metcalf

01:11:13first and 10 and office to

01:11:18Anderson picked up by Haley

01:11:20everyone thinks that Charles

01:11:22Haley is just a pass rushing

01:11:24defensive and he's a he's a

01:11:26complete football player.

01:11:27I mean you know no one's going

01:11:29to make a living running at him.

01:11:31I mean you know I've always

01:11:32heard that well just run it

01:11:33Haley blown you don't just run

01:11:35it.

01:11:35It's the same thing with Deion

01:11:36Sanders is that well he doesn't

01:11:38tackle Deion Sanders doesn't not

01:11:40tackle he just doesn't make a

01:11:41lot of tackle doesn't have to.

01:11:42I'll tell you this about Deion

01:11:43Sanders.

01:11:44He doesn't miss tackles.

01:11:47That's a misnomer.

01:11:47He's a good runner.

01:11:48He's a good runner.

01:11:50Second and nine about eight call

01:11:52it George to throw that same

01:11:59play again.

01:12:01Trip up by lead and Darren

01:12:03Woodson.

01:12:06One thing that was a smart thing

01:12:08I get I think getting Jamal

01:12:10Anderson in there because all he

01:12:12is is a change of pace and they

01:12:13wanted to change your pace and

01:12:15now he's coming out.

01:12:16They have the fastball they have

01:12:18the starter then they have a

01:12:19middle reliever and he just does

01:12:20a roll for a while gets things

01:12:22going and they you know you

01:12:23bring in your closer.

01:12:25That's what they do.

01:12:26That's what the Braves did last

01:12:27night with Glavine and rollers.

01:12:29I would wonder why they needed a

01:12:30closer the way Glavine was

01:12:32pitching.

01:12:33What do you need a closer a

01:12:33closer for third down and short

01:12:37Haley the ball into the Dallas

01:12:39secondary inside the twenty five

01:12:41the twenty three first down

01:12:43Atlanta Scott Case forced to

01:12:45make the tackle.

01:12:46And now Ironhead Heyward becomes

01:12:48a change of pace.

01:12:49You see you take Anderson out

01:12:51there and now you put Ironhead

01:12:53in there and now Ironhead is

01:12:54fresh and now he's the change of

01:12:56pace.

01:12:57I'll tell you see what he does

01:12:58to an arm tackle you see Brock

01:13:00Mary and try and do that.

01:13:01He just runs right through it.

01:13:02I mean you better bring a whole

01:13:04lot more yourself than just your

01:13:06arm if you're going to tackle

01:13:07Ironhead or you could lose an

01:13:10arm.

01:13:11Dean Taylor told me he was the

01:13:13best running back he ever saw in

01:13:14high school.

01:13:16Whatever happened to Dean

01:13:17Taylor.

01:13:18He went to the same time George

01:13:24dancing in the pocket Tony

01:13:25Tolbert and Chad Hennings the

01:13:29first two to arrive.

01:13:33As I think you know they're so

01:13:34big in here.

01:13:35Here's Chad Hennings here.

01:13:36Here's Russell Maryland here.

01:13:38And if you are going to run that

01:13:39inside you have to get those

01:13:42guys blocked.

01:13:43And if you are going to step up

01:13:44and run in the middle you better

01:13:46watch out for those big tackles

01:13:48stepping up in the middle.

01:13:49That's why in these four man

01:13:51line if you don't get those guys

01:13:52blocked in there you can't run.

01:13:55And if you don't get him stopped

01:13:56on the line it's hard to step up

01:13:58and pass protection.

01:13:59Second at 12 Anderson back in

01:14:01the backfield and he gets the

01:14:02handoff first by case wrapped up

01:14:08by Maryland.

01:14:12So Maryland said he had enough

01:14:13to get Paul Anderson there.

01:14:15I mean when when Russell

01:14:16Maryland brought himself there

01:14:18all the way down the line he

01:14:19said if you're going to run that

01:14:21far and you're a big defensive

01:14:23lineman when you get there

01:14:25you're going to finish it off at

01:14:26the end third down Atlanta 3 15

01:14:35left to play in the third

01:14:36quarter.

01:14:37Dallas 21 Atlanta 10 third and

01:14:39he's going to run out of room.

01:14:45Metcalf started left went back

01:14:47right.

01:14:49George the George Chase by

01:14:51Tolbert going to run out of room

01:14:58Emmanuel the intended receiver

01:15:02that reminded me of Joe Montana

01:15:05against the Cowboys.

01:15:06Remember when two tall Jones was

01:15:07throwing him he chasing him and

01:15:09he's going to run out of room.

01:15:11He's going to start here with

01:15:12his roll to the right.

01:15:14Then he's going to feel the

01:15:15pressure from Charles Haley on

01:15:16the backside.

01:15:18So that makes him get outside.

01:15:20Now his receivers know you have

01:15:21to keep working you have to keep

01:15:23working.

01:15:24And I'll tell you he threw a

01:15:25perfect pass.

01:15:27I don't know if Emmanuel would

01:15:28been able to stay in bounds or

01:15:30not.

01:15:31But it was a good throw.

01:15:32Well Jeff George thought it was

01:15:33a touchdown and he knew where he

01:15:34threw it.

01:15:35Anderson from 40 yards is good.

01:15:39He's got a good shot.

01:15:40He's got a good shot.

01:15:41He's got a good shot.

01:15:42He's had three to 50 left to

01:15:46play in the third quarter.

01:15:48Twenty one thirteen Dallas like

01:15:52to thank the blockbuster video

01:16:08Wave wave wave.

01:16:08Yeah.

01:16:08I can't understand how the dome

01:16:11can get pictures of them.

01:16:13Well again it's Halloween.

01:16:18I've been figuring a long time.

01:16:26To about the 18.

01:16:30Tiffin's down to make the stop.

01:16:35Morton Anderson just hit from 40

01:16:37yards to make it 21 13.

01:16:43Can't beat that.

01:16:44Nothing.

01:16:50Cowboys ball at their own 18

01:16:52Aikman back to throw it swings

01:17:10possessions they've only had

01:17:12four urban eight catches 119

01:17:15yards one touchdown Jeff George

01:17:17is 15 out of 19 and the

01:17:20touchdown pass to Metcalf.

01:17:23Second and nine.

01:17:34Emmett Smith.

01:17:37The first down you've been

01:17:38wondering I'm sure about how we

01:17:39got those shots of the blimp.

01:17:41No.

01:17:42You are these guys here.

01:17:43Yeah.

01:17:43Here and there.

01:17:45Those are the cameramen space

01:17:46above and beyond and they went

01:17:48up on top of the roof outside.

01:17:51Those are our guys.

01:17:53I'll be horn swaggled.

01:17:55They did that they went up on

01:17:57this roof and then took pictures

01:17:59of the blimp.

01:18:00Do you ever think you'd be horn

01:18:01swaggled.

01:18:02No but I never thought I'd see

01:18:03that.

01:18:04I never thought I'd see that.

01:18:05I never thought I'd see that.

01:18:06No but I never thought I'd see

01:18:07guys up in the roof.

01:18:09There's there's the man.

01:18:13He has a goofy look in his eye.

01:18:14I know where he's been.

01:18:15Deon Sanders at wide receiver.

01:18:17He gets the pass from a man to

01:18:19hit and Sanders stretches for

01:18:22yardage on first down he got

01:18:25about six.

01:18:26Yeah they have three patterns

01:18:27for Deon.

01:18:28One is that hitch a little quick

01:18:30pattern he just threw one as a

01:18:32post pattern and we saw him run

01:18:33earlier and they threw it to

01:18:34Michael Irvin.

01:18:35He's got a good swing and the

01:18:37other one isn't up.

01:18:38Here he is right out here.

01:18:40And again he had run deep so he

01:18:42wanted to think he's going to go

01:18:43deep then you just throw him

01:18:45that quick pass hope that he

01:18:46breaks or someone misses a

01:18:48tackle there then he just takes

01:18:49off up the field with a speed

01:18:51didn't work.

01:18:52He got six and he got his

01:18:54offensive play and he's playing

01:18:56the offense and he's out now

01:18:58he's out.

01:18:58First ball is a cowboy.

01:19:01That's him at Smith and got the

01:19:05stop by Jesse Tuggle you watch

01:19:15this.

01:19:16You know this is one of the

01:19:16problems with that three step

01:19:18drop is that is that the

01:19:19quarterback doesn't get very

01:19:21far from the line of scrimmage

01:19:22and that play there it looked

01:19:24like Troy Aikman hit it hit his

01:19:26hand on a helmet.

01:19:27Remember that happened to him

01:19:28last year.

01:19:29In fact he did.

01:19:30It doesn't look like it.

01:19:31He did hit his hand on a helmet.

01:19:33You always worry about that with

01:19:34a short drop because to throw

01:19:36that quick hit he's only going

01:19:37to get a couple of yards away

01:19:38from the line of scrimmage.

01:19:40First down he gets again to him

01:19:42at Smith Emmett cut down after a

01:19:45couple Kevin Ross Burrow make

01:19:50the stop.

01:19:52That's the end of quarter number

01:19:54three at Georgia Dome was the

01:19:56score Dallas 21 Atlanta 13 in

01:20:03the fourth quarter at Georgia

01:20:05Dome 21 13 Dallas leading town

01:20:15was full of excitement last

01:20:16night as you can well imagine.

01:20:18Yeah like I said I was watching

01:20:19the news and Peachtree was

01:20:21closed Peachtree Street a whole

01:20:24bunch of them.

01:20:26Daryl Johnson was the man in

01:20:27the first down.

01:20:28Johnson.

01:20:29Aikman a throw it.

01:20:31Irvin to catch it.

01:20:32First down.

01:20:35DJ Johnson on the stop.

01:20:38They're sort of in Aikman and

01:20:40Irvin I mean and sort of their

01:20:42own zone.

01:20:44They are.

01:20:44I mean you know again that that

01:20:46Troy Aikman could just get the

01:20:48ball anywhere Michael Irvin is

01:20:50and Michael Irvin can get

01:20:51anywhere Troy Aikman wants him

01:20:53to be.

01:20:54And once you get that I mean

01:20:55that's something as special as

01:20:56it can be.

01:20:57Yeah.

01:20:57I mean that's just unstoppable.

01:20:59I mean that combination is

01:21:00unstoppable and Emmitt Smith is

01:21:02unstoppable and Deion Sanders

01:21:05is in a wide receiver to the

01:21:06right Aikman going deep for

01:21:10Sanders spectacular catch he

01:21:16should have kept running the

01:21:19dive by Deion almost brought

01:21:22about a spectacular touchdown.

01:21:24No one wants this more than Deion

01:21:26Sanders.

01:21:28He gets by what he's he's one on

01:21:30one he's man to man.

01:21:31But see if he would have just

01:21:32run through that if he not if he

01:21:35had not left his feet and kept

01:21:36running through that.

01:21:38I mean who am I to tell him.

01:21:39But if he just keeps running I

01:21:41don't know he's going to get a

01:21:44rest now.

01:21:45There's no one that wanted that

01:21:47more than Deion Sanders.

01:21:48Like he said he wants to make

01:21:49things happen.

01:21:50He wants to dictate he wants to

01:21:52be part of a game he doesn't

01:21:53want to be bored.

01:21:55He's not going to be bored doing

01:21:56nothing.

01:21:57He's going to be a good guy.

01:21:58Here's a guy can make some

01:21:59things happen.

01:22:01Emmett Smith stopped by Ross

01:22:04after a gain of about seven.

01:22:06You know one thing about Deion

01:22:07Sanders I mean he has this

01:22:08persona and all that stuff but

01:22:11haven't seen you know going to

01:22:12practice and talking to him and

01:22:14watch he's just a different guy

01:22:15but everyone likes him.

01:22:17You know I mean you can just see

01:22:18there in the sideline and the

01:22:19coaches he he went back there

01:22:22and all the players you know

01:22:23patted him on the back and the

01:22:24head.

01:22:25He's a great guy.

01:22:26He's a great guy.

01:22:27He's going to win any team that

01:22:28he plays on and that play right

01:22:30there is one of the reasons he

01:22:31signed with Dallas to get some

01:22:34offense inside the 30 and he was

01:22:43off almost Kevin Ross stripped

01:22:47him up and if he doesn't get

01:22:50tripped up.

01:22:51You're right.

01:22:51That was a touchdown.

01:22:52Yeah.

01:22:54Well he's somewhere he's left

01:22:57over from the Braves game last

01:22:59night.

01:23:00I think there's probably a lot

01:23:01of leftovers from that Braves

01:23:03game or at least the Braves

01:23:04celebration.

01:23:05A lot of people couldn't get in

01:23:06the game so they just went out

01:23:07and celebrated when Emmitt has a

01:23:10hundred yards the Cowboys are

01:23:12thirty eight and three.

01:23:13He has one hundred and five and

01:23:15nineteen carries now.

01:23:16I think any time the Cowboys

01:23:18get to have Emmitt period they

01:23:19win.

01:23:29You know there's a guy that's

01:23:30always serious though.

01:23:31I mean Deon is running post

01:23:33patterns and he's throwing the

01:23:34ball and you know and everyone's

01:23:36you know congratulating Deon and

01:23:38everything and Troy Aikman

01:23:40always has that serious look on

01:23:42his face.

01:23:42I mean he always looks like what

01:23:44he's doing is the most important

01:23:46thing that's being done in the

01:23:48world and to him it is.

01:23:51You wonder if he's enjoying it.

01:23:52I mean he has all this fame and

01:23:54money and everything and once in

01:23:57a while you just thought of

01:23:59starting to get that is that is

01:24:11you know we talk about Troy

01:24:13Aikman when he's on and you know

01:24:14throwing to to Michael Irvin and

01:24:17then the other part of that

01:24:18equation it's unstoppable as

01:24:19this guy.

01:24:20I mean you know and even when

01:24:21you talk to other teams and

01:24:23coaches and players they never

01:24:25really talk about stopping him

01:24:27at Smith.

01:24:27It's always about control.

01:24:29Yeah.

01:24:30They always say he's going to

01:24:32get his.

01:24:33Yeah.

01:24:33Behind this group.

01:24:35Yeah.

01:24:35Behind that group.

01:24:36I mean I mean I would I would I

01:24:39wouldn't say I would like to do

01:24:39it but I would I would love to

01:24:41have coached this group this

01:24:42group offensive lineman.

01:24:45Here he is near a first down

01:24:49yardage I believe he got it.

01:24:51Jesse Tuggle if he did he got

01:24:54that on his own because there

01:24:56was a matchup between Emmitt

01:24:58Smith and Jesse Tuggle and

01:25:00whoever won that gets the first

01:25:02down or not first down because

01:25:05Jesse Tuggle wasn't blocked.

01:25:06He had Emmitt Smith and whoever

01:25:08won that that battle that end of

01:25:10the play.

01:25:12What's the end of the play from

01:25:13Emmitt Smith.

01:25:14That's the point right there.

01:25:15Whoever wins that gets the first

01:25:17down or not.

01:25:18I think Jesse Tuggle won that

01:25:20one at the end.

01:25:21No question.

01:25:24And no question on the change

01:25:25either.

01:25:26A foot short that's a play

01:25:38before that.

01:25:39Kevin Ross that's where his hand

01:25:41ends up.

01:25:41That's where Emmitt Smith's face

01:25:43mask disappeared.

01:25:46Yeah that's all the way in.

01:25:47He has his hand all the way into

01:25:48his elbow fourth and about a

01:25:52foot and they're going to go for

01:25:54it here.

01:25:54And one thing the Cowboys don't

01:25:56do you know in this situation if

01:25:59you're going to go for it it

01:25:59would call for a quarterback

01:26:01sneak.

01:26:02The Cowboys and Troy Aikman do

01:26:03not quarterback sneak.

01:26:05This is going to be Emmitt Smith

01:26:06running four out of five on

01:26:10the season.

01:26:12They haven't had to do this

01:26:13month.

01:26:25Now June Jones could see that

01:26:26coming.

01:26:27I mean if you have a big

01:26:28offensive line and they're the

01:26:30best offensive line in football

01:26:31maybe one of the best offensive

01:26:33lines it's ever played and you

01:26:35have the best running back in

01:26:36football and you only need a few

01:26:38inches if they can't get it to

01:26:40get it then they're not the

01:26:41best to Emmitt Smith went to the

01:26:44sideline Sherman Williams came

01:26:46in and you saw Barry Switzer

01:26:48talking to him on the side the

01:26:49last thing he said to Sherman

01:26:51Williams hold on to the ball.

01:26:54You should never do that.

01:27:04The Moose Barry Switzer though

01:27:07Williams that but Ernie Zampezi

01:27:09called the play.

01:27:11Sherman Williams was going in

01:27:12and says hold on to the ball.

01:27:14But then Ernie Zampezi calls the

01:27:17play and a handoff is to Moose

01:27:18Johnston.

01:27:19Look at that hole.

01:27:20I mean the Moose doesn't get

01:27:22hit until he runs about seven

01:27:23yards.

01:27:24There's Ernie right there.

01:27:26He called that play said if

01:27:27you're going to put Sherman

01:27:28Williams in I may give him the

01:27:30ball but I'm not going to give

01:27:31it to him the first place in

01:27:32their second and one.

01:27:33I'm going to give it to the

01:27:54second place in there.

01:27:56I'm going to give it to the

01:27:57Moose from seven yards out.

01:28:01Once as nice do it twice.

01:28:03That's the way to do it.

01:28:06Barry Switzer didn't have to

01:28:08worry about Sherman Williams

01:28:09fumbling on that drive.

01:28:12There is the football player.

01:28:15Look at this back when they get

01:28:16going.

01:28:17I mean TD TD TD TD that's

01:28:21football.

01:28:21That's all pretty hard to beat

01:28:24you know the check holding makes

01:28:26a lot of noise Georgia Dome a

01:28:42magnificent structure but

01:28:43outside a little substance going

01:28:47on.

01:28:48Look at that.

01:28:49Those are those are big old

01:28:50things with all of them.

01:28:51You know you don't see a lot of

01:28:52bones and steaks anymore.

01:28:54That's some barbecue.

01:28:55That's a big old pot of stuff a

01:28:58fresh fried turkey.

01:28:59Oh yeah.

01:29:00You can't beat that.

01:29:02And ball peanuts.

01:29:04Yeah you know I I kind of like

01:29:07them dry but I know that's a big

01:29:08thing down here.

01:29:09Oh yeah.

01:29:10Peanut.

01:29:10Yeah.

01:29:11One thing they do is you can

01:29:13throw them well I throw them out

01:29:14of the booth sometime to warm up

01:29:16my arm.

01:29:16Well they get heavy when you.

01:29:17Yeah yeah.

01:29:18I mean a boiled goober is a good

01:29:20goober to throw.

01:29:21Well I used to sell them as a

01:29:22kid.

01:29:23Boiled goobers.

01:29:24Yes.

01:29:25Yeah.

01:29:25I mean what would you say.

01:29:27Sack of goobers.

01:29:28No no no no.

01:29:30I have a man and a little little

01:29:32sack and I'd be on the street on

01:29:34Saturday morning.

01:29:35Well peanuts.

01:29:37Well peanuts.

01:29:44Would you sell them by the sack.

01:29:46A nickel a nickel a sack.

01:29:47Yeah.

01:29:47For boiled peanut.

01:29:48Right.

01:29:49I like the dry kind better

01:29:50really.

01:29:52Well we've got a big sack of

01:29:53both up here today.

01:29:54I know it.

01:29:54But I must have missed

01:29:55something.

01:29:56I think the boiled are good for

01:29:57throwing in the dry are good for

01:29:58eating.

01:30:00Well just depends on where you're

01:30:02from I guess.

01:30:08What are Dallas leading Atlanta

01:30:10twenty eight thirteen at Georgia

01:30:15Dome.

01:30:16Ten minutes six seconds left to

01:30:18play Atlanta ball at their own

01:30:21forty Craig Heyward behind Jeff

01:30:28George George with time

01:30:35complete covered by Brown

01:30:38covered well.

01:30:39Yeah I was watching Larry Brown

01:30:40and he he looked like he was in

01:30:42the same defensive stance as

01:30:43Deion Sanders.

01:30:45Deion Sanders changed how

01:30:47defensive backs got in stances.

01:30:50I think Larry Brown copied Deion

01:30:52Sanders a stance and then see you

01:30:56see this look right here.

01:30:57That's a Deion Sanders stance

01:30:59where you're kind of one foot

01:31:00down and right right right to one

01:31:01foot back rather like you're in

01:31:02a sprint.

01:31:04Here's Deion doing it over on

01:31:05the other side.

01:31:06He was off on that play.

01:31:07Second and 10.

01:31:08I think Deion started to get a

01:31:09little tired Heyward by Tolbert

01:31:19and that was one of the things

01:31:22Deion Sanders was talking about

01:31:24last night that he wanted to

01:31:27change the game where you know

01:31:29it always been the corners

01:31:31always worried about receivers.

01:31:32You know what's that receiver

01:31:33going to do to you.

01:31:34How are you going to stop that

01:31:35receiver.

01:31:36And he wants to change it where

01:31:37receivers start worrying about

01:31:39him.

01:31:40And I think he's done that.

01:31:41Yeah I think he's so concerned

01:31:43where's Deion.

01:31:44What's he doing.

01:31:44What's the answer.

01:31:45Is he up is he off.

01:31:46Is he playing man to man.

01:31:47Is he playing hash.

01:31:48What's he doing.

01:31:49If they are more concerned about

01:31:50him.

01:31:52Third nine.

01:31:58Incomplete intended for Mathis

01:32:02right now for McDonald's game

01:32:03break.

01:32:04Let's return to James Brown in

01:32:06our Hollywood studio.

01:32:07Hey Pat Carolina looking for an

01:32:08expansion record third straight

01:32:10victory trying to get it

01:32:11happening here.

01:32:12diminutive one Eric Gulliver

01:32:14Carolina leading at 10 3 over

01:32:16New England.

01:32:19John and we're at Georgia Dome

01:32:22in Atlanta.

01:32:27Fourth nine.

01:32:41Couldn't quite make it up to it.

01:32:44And it's down by Atlanta.

01:32:45And.

01:32:46It's down by Atlanta.

01:32:47And.

01:32:47It's a drag on the play.

01:32:49Back at the line of scrimmage.

01:32:51Ball down at about the 16

01:32:53Dallas 28 Atlanta 13.

01:33:08Holding against Atlanta.

01:33:10They're going to kick that one

01:33:11over again because that good

01:33:13bounce prior to the kick.

01:33:14And.

01:33:15And.

01:33:15Ten yards.

01:33:16Repeat fourth down.

01:33:18Before the kick.

01:33:21Yeah.

01:33:22It's right there on the left of

01:33:23the frame when you see it right

01:33:24there right down on the on the

01:33:26bottom there right there is

01:33:28where it was.

01:33:29Started with a hold and ended up

01:33:31in a in a takedown.

01:33:34That was on Brock Marion.

01:33:36The fans are just saying.

01:33:39How do I look.

01:33:40I think that was Tom Glavine.

01:33:41I don't know.

01:33:42No I don't know.

01:33:43I mean how do you decide to put

01:33:44that stuff on you.

01:33:46And when do you know you're done

01:33:47late at night.

01:33:49Yeah yeah.

01:33:49And then you come here at 1.

01:33:53Unless you just leave it on from

01:33:54yesterday.

01:33:58Makes the fair catch.

01:34:02At about the 25.

01:34:07So Dallas takes over.

01:34:09A 51 left to play.

01:34:14Here in Atlanta John getting

01:34:36Amit Smith the ball carrier.

01:34:38Look at this.

01:34:39Yeah one wants to know who's

01:34:40winning a sweat contest.

01:34:42Well.

01:34:43I don't know how much you get in

01:34:44a dome but we'll take a look at

01:34:46it.

01:34:47I mean these cowboys you always

01:34:48get it by you know how far down

01:34:50the leg.

01:34:51I mean the sweat starts at the

01:34:53waist and then the one who wins

01:34:55the contest goes down the leg

01:34:57the farthest now Nate Newton

01:34:58number 61 is dry.

01:35:00Yeah.

01:35:01Mark two and a 71.

01:35:02He's always dry.

01:35:03So if they don't win they're out

01:35:05of it.

01:35:05Larry Allen's.

01:35:07Competitor.

01:35:09That's him at Smith outside the

01:35:1030 to 31.

01:35:12Well we're going to have to take

01:35:13a closer look.

01:35:14I mean from here I mean it kind

01:35:15of looked like Larry Allen.

01:35:17Yeah.

01:35:18But then you always have to look

01:35:19at Eric Williams too.

01:35:21But I would say I would say in

01:35:23that offensive line you know.

01:35:26Now right now Allen when he's

01:35:27down to here you give him first

01:35:30place.

01:35:31But we haven't seen number 79

01:35:33yet because Larry Allen will

01:35:36will will usually win it.

01:35:37He's winning it thus far.

01:35:39We have to look at Eric

01:35:40Williams.

01:35:41Now if Derek Kennard were

01:35:42playing he might win.

01:35:44Now he's not even in the game.

01:35:45No.

01:35:46No.

01:35:46He's pretty dry.

01:35:47Yeah.

01:35:48So the winner today is Larry

01:35:49Allen.

01:35:51Here's a man outside.

01:35:54And he gets the cowboy first

01:35:56down.

01:35:58Stops the clock at 726 left to

01:36:00play.

01:36:02Darryl Kelly.

01:36:05Now.

01:36:06Now like you said Pat there's

01:36:07Derek Kennard.

01:36:08Now he hasn't even played it

01:36:10down.

01:36:10He's not even in the game yet.

01:36:12But but but he would win the

01:36:13sweat contest all the time.

01:36:15Now Ron Stone in there behind

01:36:16him he's pretty good.

01:36:17I mean I think those guys are

01:36:19probably best.

01:36:20Deon.

01:36:21That's not sweat.

01:36:22No I think I think on that last

01:36:24play I think he stretched

01:36:26something I don't think that

01:36:27one.

01:36:28I think I think on that last

01:36:29play they ran him on and off I

01:36:30think he's stretching.

01:36:31Eggman.

01:36:34Has intercepted by DJ Johnson.

01:36:36Intended burden.

01:36:37A little bit under thrown.

01:36:41DJ Johnson.

01:36:42He's been watching that thing

01:36:44all day.

01:36:44He's looking in he's seeing

01:36:46Irvin and looking in at

01:36:47Eggman and really gets a good

01:36:49job.

01:36:51So Atlanta will take over.

01:36:55Team Dallas.

01:36:57Over Atlanta.

01:36:59Fox Theater.

01:37:02That's quite a place.

01:37:04Where is that here.

01:37:05Yeah it has to be.

01:37:07Yeah.

01:37:07We've is quite a play.

01:37:09How do you know.

01:37:10Well I was there for a couple of

01:37:11functions.

01:37:13During the offseason.

01:37:14Does Rupert Murdoch own that.

01:37:16Is that a Fox.

01:37:17Fox on that.

01:37:18That's owned by.

01:37:20That's one of those restored

01:37:21things.

01:37:21They're just using the name.

01:37:23Yeah.

01:37:33And when you say knocked out of

01:37:35bounds he was knocked out of

01:37:36bounds by Henning.

01:37:37Well you know that's one of the

01:37:38things that the quarterbacks

01:37:39kind of bait those guys to hit

01:37:41him because they're waiting

01:37:42waiting and wait and you can't

01:37:44not hit him.

01:37:45So Chad Henning is just better

01:37:46watch out that he didn't hit him

01:37:48with his head first.

01:37:49That's all.

01:37:50Here's Deion Sanders.

01:37:52Now you see him limping there.

01:37:53You know you know he's had the

01:37:54ankle surgery so it could be the

01:37:56ankle but I thought on third

01:37:58down of the last series he was

01:38:01run deep and I think that he

01:38:03pulled up a little on something

01:38:05and I think he got some kind of

01:38:06strain a hamstring strain or

01:38:08something.

01:38:10Well it's been a long time long

01:38:11time since he played this game.

01:38:13You know he's not he's not going

01:38:15to get bored on this club.

01:38:16He said you know when he played

01:38:17with the 49ers last year that

01:38:19that he got bored playing and he

01:38:21even thought of quitting and the

01:38:24end of the season he thought

01:38:25that he would quit football as

01:38:27well.

01:38:27What would you do.

01:38:28He said I'll just play baseball

01:38:30and then you know then he had a

01:38:32chance and then things came and

01:38:34he wanted to play for the

01:38:35Cowboys and the whole thing.

01:38:37He's back now.

01:38:39You see that WZ that he has on

01:38:41his helmet.

01:38:42Yeah I noticed that earlier.

01:38:43He's still wearing that.

01:38:44You know that's for Whitey

01:38:45Zimmerman who passed away a year

01:38:47ago who was the equipment man of

01:38:49the Atlanta Falcons.

01:38:51And Deion Sanders wore that WZ

01:38:53with the 49ers and with the

01:38:55Cowboys still in his memory.

01:38:57George chased out of the pocket

01:39:00gets that pass.

01:39:01And look who caught him from

01:39:02behind.

01:39:03Charles Haley a hustling Haley

01:39:08today.

01:39:09You know that's one thing about

01:39:10Charles Haley.

01:39:11I mean you know whether he's

01:39:13this or he's that where he get

01:39:15when he comes to play on Sunday

01:39:17he gives you a full game.

01:39:19I mean he'll rush the passer and

01:39:21if you run he'll stop the run.

01:39:23And if you need pursuit he

01:39:24pursues.

01:39:25He's not afraid to go inside on

01:39:27a pass rush.

01:39:28He's a complete player.

01:39:30Clock running 6 10 left to play

01:39:32in this ball loses yardage this

01:39:40time Darren Woodson had it read.

01:39:43Darren Woodson is normally the

01:39:45strong safety but in this game

01:39:46because a run and shoot he's

01:39:48been playing linebacker the

01:39:49whole game.

01:39:52Today's game is being produced

01:39:54by Bob Stenner directed by Sandy

01:39:56Grossman.

01:39:56The studio was produced by Scott

01:39:57Atkinson directed by Bob Levy

01:40:00executive producers of Fox

01:40:02Sports read Gorin and David Hill

01:40:05Jamal Anderson replaces Hayward

01:40:13he gets the handoff good run by

01:40:18Anderson gets another first down

01:40:20or close to it not quite.

01:40:22You watch Bob Whitfield here on

01:40:25Charles Haley and the thing that

01:40:26he's going to do is just turn

01:40:28him and then try and get him to

01:40:30the outside then Haley tries to

01:40:32take it inside so he takes the

01:40:33inside away and then he takes

01:40:35the outside away and just stays

01:40:36with him.

01:40:38Now there's Mike can remember

01:40:39Mike can who's like for 18

01:40:41years here as a left tackle from

01:40:43the Falcons.

01:40:44Bob Whitfield said that he's

01:40:46going to take the inside away

01:40:47and then he's going to take the

01:40:48outside away and just stays with

01:40:49him Bob Whitfield said that he

01:40:52learned a lot from that guy word

01:40:56from the Cowboys is a Dion's

01:40:58hamstring left hamstring has

01:41:01started to tighten up a bit so

01:41:04he's on the sideline may or may

01:41:05not be back.

01:41:06I doubt he'll be back.

01:41:07That's what I thought it was on

01:41:08that third down play in the

01:41:09series before he was running

01:41:11down the field and I saw it

01:41:13happen and he got that

01:41:15strawberry right there.

01:41:17Robert Bailey has taken his

01:41:19left hamstring out of place.

01:41:21This is a play that could have

01:41:22happened on right there.

01:41:24Looked like at the end he pulled

01:41:25up right there just before it

01:41:27went off.

01:41:28You could just see him pull up

01:41:28with that left hamstring.

01:41:30Jeff George for an annual

01:41:33incomplete Bailey who replaced

01:41:37Dion was the defender like he

01:41:39got some kind of that's a

01:41:41strawberry on the side.

01:41:42Yeah yeah.

01:41:43That's just one of those things

01:41:45remember he used to get when

01:41:47you'd slide into second base.

01:41:48He used to dive before trying

01:41:50for that long pass on that post

01:41:51pattern.

01:41:52Yeah that's exactly where I got

01:41:53it.

01:41:55But he likes that one.

01:41:59He doesn't like that hamstring

01:42:00tightening up.

01:42:01No.

01:42:03You see on his wrist he always

01:42:04wears a rubber band.

01:42:05He started that at Florida

01:42:06State and he still gets his

01:42:08rubber bands from Florida State

01:42:10that he wears on his wrist.

01:42:12Good luck.

01:42:13George on second down Gibson

01:42:14Anderson.

01:42:15He gets very little sober.

01:42:19See that rubber band there.

01:42:20He always wears that.

01:42:21And and he's he's starting to

01:42:23remember.

01:42:23Remember when they give you a

01:42:24role in the role would have your

01:42:26your T-shirt and socks and stuff

01:42:28in it under being a rubber band.

01:42:29I remember.

01:42:30And he used to take it off of

01:42:31Florida State every day and put

01:42:32it on his wrist.

01:42:34And when he went into the pros

01:42:35he went back to Florida State

01:42:36and he'd get a big box of

01:42:38Florida State rubber bands and

01:42:40he wears one on his wrist every

01:42:41day.

01:42:42He's a baseball football life

01:42:45fishing.

01:42:46Luck.

01:42:50Third in that long nine here's

01:42:54George.

01:42:54Does he see how he must have

01:42:57been coming.

01:42:59I think he felt them coming

01:43:01you're right.

01:43:04At the end of this game John

01:43:06and I'll and I'll select the

01:43:07middle light player of the game.

01:43:09This game by the way presented

01:43:12Football League is intended for

01:43:13the private use of our audience.

01:43:18this telecast without the

01:43:22Football League is prohibited.

01:43:25They're going to measure and

01:43:26see if this is a first down.

01:43:29Emmett Smith by the way was in

01:43:31town earlier than his Cowboy

01:43:33teammates yesterday to watch his

01:43:34brother play plays for Clemson.

01:43:37They played Georgia Tech.

01:43:38They played Georgia Tech

01:43:39yesterday and his brother Emory

01:43:42carried the ball 26 times picked

01:43:44up 100 yards.

01:43:45Here's the measurement scored a

01:43:48touchdown.

01:43:49One official's down on his hand

01:43:51two of them were down in their

01:43:52hands and knees one of them

01:43:55holding a chain the other one

01:43:56just getting down on it.

01:43:58Here's yesterday what we're just

01:43:59talking about there's Emory

01:44:00Smith number 18 Emmett's brother

01:44:03he's bigger than him.

01:44:04Yeah.

01:44:05You got to hit his first 100

01:44:06and Emmett observing Georgia

01:44:10Tech homecoming Clemson won at

01:44:11twenty four to three.

01:44:17Yeah there they are.

01:44:17I mean they're standing next to

01:44:19each other.

01:44:19I mean he's he's a good head

01:44:20taller than Emmett doesn't

01:44:24bother Emmett though but he's

01:44:26not at the game today.

01:44:27His brother didn't come to the

01:44:28game and probably had to go back

01:44:30and do a walk through or

01:44:30something at Clemson.

01:44:32You know the other thing I was

01:44:33in a hotel yesterday and saw

01:44:36Michael Irvin's family.

01:44:37You know he has like 15 or 16

01:44:38kids and I was going to say

01:44:39that's all about nine or 10 of

01:44:42them there.

01:44:46Here's George on fourth and

01:44:47short Hayward is the running

01:44:49back and he gets the first down

01:44:56one thing about these Falcons

01:44:57they can move the ball.

01:44:59Yeah I mean they have some with

01:45:00this run and shoot these wide

01:45:02receivers and Jeff George and

01:45:04Aaron Hayward and a change of

01:45:06pace and Eric Metcalf and so on

01:45:07it's just that when the other

01:45:09team has the ball they can't

01:45:11stop him.

01:45:12And so it gets to be a you know

01:45:14you always have to outscore

01:45:15someone and time of possession

01:45:17and all those things that that

01:45:18hurts us offense as much as

01:45:20anything.

01:45:22And about the 14 first down

01:45:25George backs up by Tolbert got

01:45:30away from Tolbert finally just

01:45:34had to throw it away.

01:45:34Everybody was covered his debut

01:45:41with Atlanta.

01:45:42Deion Sanders scored on a 68

01:45:44yard punt return for a

01:45:45touchdown with San Francisco in

01:45:47his debut 74 yard interception

01:45:51return and he came awfully close

01:45:54to one of these things on that

01:45:55post pattern.

01:45:57That's his debut against the

01:46:00Rams when he was a Falcon.

01:46:01He's a great guy.

01:46:02He's a great guy.

01:46:03He's a great guy.

01:46:04He's a great guy.

01:46:06They always say you talk to

01:46:08players and everyone and I kind

01:46:11of agree because I wouldn't know

01:46:12anything else but they say he's

01:46:13the fastest player as fast as

01:46:15football as fast as he needs to

01:46:17be.

01:46:18No one ever catches him.

01:46:19Here's George.

01:46:21Threw it away.

01:46:23And here's the other one.

01:46:25There's the real one.

01:46:28Here he is last year against San

01:46:30Francisco.

01:46:31He's a great guy.

01:46:32He's a great guy.

01:46:33Thank you.

01:46:33Pardon for San Francisco.

01:46:36He doesn't worry too much about

01:46:37that ball protection does he.

01:46:40Big hands huge hands that ball

01:46:43is just like a part of his body

01:46:45instead of something he's

01:46:46supposed to be holding and

01:46:47protecting.

01:46:49But the league needs stars.

01:46:50I mean you need guys that bring

01:46:52people and you know you know

01:46:53people.

01:46:54I don't like that guy.

01:46:55You need that.

01:46:56That's what that's what fans

01:46:57come for.

01:46:58That's what they get excited for

01:46:59when they see him.

01:47:00That's what they get excited

01:47:01for.

01:47:01That's what they get excited

01:47:02for.

01:47:10The target.

01:47:13He just lost it.

01:47:16Jeff George is wondering what he

01:47:17has to do here.

01:47:18I mean he's really he's been

01:47:20doing everything today.

01:47:21I mean he was going to start to

01:47:22the left and this is a throwback

01:47:24to Emanuel and he just hit him

01:47:26right in the chest.

01:47:27That's the second touchdown

01:47:29pass by Emanuel on Jeff George.

01:47:31He what happened is he put his

01:47:33knee out there and the ball got

01:47:35to his knee and hit his knee

01:47:37before it got to his hand.

01:47:39But that was two touchdown

01:47:41passes today that Jeff George

01:47:42threw and were dropped by Birdie

01:47:44Emanuel Sanders back in the

01:47:47lineup.

01:47:47This is an Atlanta timeout.

01:47:56George came over to the sideline

01:47:57to talk with June Jones.

01:47:59He's got Bobby a bear in the

01:48:00middle.

01:48:01Yeah.

01:48:01June Jones grabbed grab Jeff

01:48:03George by the jersey and watch

01:48:06Jeff George here.

01:48:08Bobby a bear finally steps

01:48:10between him.

01:48:11You know the play that I mean

01:48:13the last play was the one that

01:48:14he threw to Birdie Emanuel and

01:48:15was dropped in the end zone.

01:48:16That was there.

01:48:18I mean I mean he threw the

01:48:18passes he had hit him right in

01:48:20the left knee before it got to

01:48:21his hand and he went over and

01:48:23the coach starts arguing with

01:48:25him.

01:48:25He's going to throw it down and

01:48:2710 George to throw it JJ Burton

01:48:35the intended receiver happens to

01:48:42George when he gets over to the

01:48:43sideline this time.

01:48:44Well I think June Jones has

01:48:45realized that he didn't want

01:48:47happen what happened when he he

01:48:49walked out there in the field

01:48:50and just kind of patterned in

01:48:51the back.

01:48:52I mean you you have to let that

01:48:54stuff go.

01:48:56So Dallas takes over two minutes

01:48:58to play.

01:49:02This guy here is not King Kong

01:49:04Bundy.

01:49:05That guy there was just doing a

01:49:06dance.

01:49:06Yeah.

01:49:07The time you see him.

01:49:08That wasn't one of my favorites

01:49:10early on.

01:49:11I never saw anywhere.

01:49:13That's him at Smith flag

01:49:15whistles no play Bobby a bear.

01:49:21So many outstanding years in New

01:49:23Orleans came here as the backup

01:49:24man is the backup man.

01:49:28You know they were looking at

01:49:29the last time they played and

01:49:30beat the Cowboys how they did it.

01:49:33Bobby a bear was a quarterback

01:49:35ball start 83 off and five yards

01:49:37repeat first down Kendall

01:49:38Watkins I think Bobby a bear is

01:49:43trying to soothe things over now

01:49:44between Jeff George and June

01:49:47Jones.

01:49:47And you know it's tough for for

01:49:50Jeff George.

01:49:51I mean he's he's really played

01:49:53like heck today and you get in

01:49:55that competitive thing and the

01:49:56adrenaline and all that stuff

01:49:58that's going it's hard to that's

01:50:01up here with us.

01:50:03Yeah.

01:50:03Well you always have to pack a

01:50:04pumpkin.

01:50:05Oh I think so.

01:50:06Yeah.

01:50:07Right there.

01:50:07I mean there's the pump.

01:50:18And down he goes.

01:50:19Stop by Roger Harper.

01:50:24Twenty eight thirteen Atlanta

01:50:26timeout a minute and fifty

01:50:28seconds left to play in the

01:50:29fourth.

01:50:38You have a happy Halloween at

01:50:40summer on John Madden at Georgia

01:50:43Dome.

01:50:44Happy Halloween to everyone.

01:50:46I think I'm just going to take

01:50:47that on the bus and just why not

01:50:49go across the country with it

01:50:50and just put it in the window

01:50:52and then just kind of go.

01:50:55You're going from here to Las

01:50:55Vegas.

01:50:56Yeah I know it.

01:50:57That's a long road.

01:50:58I mean that by the time you get

01:50:59there it'll be Halloween.

01:51:03I'll just celebrate Halloween

01:51:04all the way.

01:51:06I might take those two guys with

01:51:07me and drop them off in Dallas.

01:51:09That's going to be an interesting

01:51:10ride.

01:51:11Yes it will.

01:51:11We told her and Charles Haley

01:51:14there's Emma Smith again.

01:51:18And that to make feel I think I

01:51:20think I think I'd take him and

01:51:21Smith out of this game.

01:51:23I think in twenty eight thirteen

01:51:25I think you got this thing.

01:51:26I I don't I don't think he has

01:51:28to be in there.

01:51:30Forty yard run by Emmett I

01:51:33think I think he's done enough.

01:51:35I think he he was a big part in

01:51:37winning this game for the

01:51:38Cowboys.

01:51:39They were they were down and he

01:51:41got the momentum changed and

01:51:44well he's out.

01:51:44Yeah well he should be out.

01:51:46I mean he's he's had a good day

01:51:48and he's got a full day's work.

01:51:50That's there's a football player.

01:51:53There's a man he gives that

01:51:56that's the end of a day's work.

01:51:59He opened a new business this

01:52:00past week in Dallas and that I'm

01:52:03sure will be a success.

01:52:04Emmett Smith communication.

01:52:06Yeah I was there for the

01:52:07opening and he is our Miller

01:52:12like the player of the game.

01:52:16He could be almost every just

01:52:18every game he plays in to me

01:52:21he's the best way you'd love to

01:52:22have him on your side if you

01:52:24were choosing up a team Atlanta

01:52:27timeout Georgia Dome and the

01:52:35magnificent skyline of Atlanta

01:52:42what a sports weekend it's been

01:52:44here and will be.

01:52:46You just look over there that

01:52:47that's a great view.

01:52:48I mean just think of what David

01:52:50Justice did there last night.

01:52:51Yeah what that meant.

01:52:56In fact Jeff George was saying

01:52:58the other day that if the Braves

01:53:00win the World Series and if they

01:53:02could beat Dallas maybe they'd

01:53:03be able to get in a parade

01:53:04tomorrow.

01:53:05There's going to be a big parade

01:53:06here for the Braves tomorrow but

01:53:08they aren't going to be in it

01:53:09they're going to parade up

01:53:10Peachtree or down Peachtree.

01:53:11They do everything if you're in

01:53:13Atlanta eventually you do

01:53:15everything on Peachtree.

01:53:16You always have always will.

01:53:19Congratulations again to Barry

01:53:21Switzer and to Charles Haley who

01:53:23had a heck of a day.

01:53:28Switzer just keep going along.

01:53:31He has a good group of players

01:53:34and a good group of assistant

01:53:35coaches the Cowboys improved

01:53:41their record as they defeated

01:53:44Atlanta 28 13 Dallas defeats

01:53:51Atlanta 28 and 13 were standing

01:54:11of friends here has a house

01:54:17would like to be an assistant

01:54:21Smith Rankin Smith's son and he

01:54:24said that someday he'd like to
