Just wanted to compile a list of the games involving the Dallas Cowboys you've enjoyed watching the most........of course, if you're a Skins fan, this means they've LOST!! Here is my short list:
Redskins: The 14-13 shocker at Dallas and the 35-7 rout at FedEx last season were great. Have to throw in the 31-17 NFCCG win under Gibbs I (I was too young when the 26-3 NFCCG happened).
Steelers: The two Super Bowl games (X and XIII)
Bears: win 44-0 in '85 at Texas Stadium
49ers: 28-27 in early '82 NFCCG. The Catch......nuff said!
Texans: beat Cowboys in their first-ever game in 2002
Panthers: knock off defending SB champs in '96 playoffs
Dolphins: win Turkey Day game ('93?) when Leon Lett decides to attempt to pounce on missed FG attempt in the snow
Rams: beat Cowboys in '79 playoffs and end Staubach's career. After the way we blew the '79 finale in Dallas, made you feel a little better.
That's my list. I know there are other famous games (SB against the Colts, NFL Championships against the Packers) that I was too young to see. Any others?

This is my favorite too. The Texans winning their FIRST game ever over Dallass was pretty damn funny though.

35-7 beatdown I enjoy this win a little more than the wk 2 simply because leading up to this game all their players and fans were saying it was a fluke and they prove it wasn't they were truly the better team.
1985 44-0 hammering by the Bears I love it love it .
The lost to the Cardinals in the playoffs :laugh:
1993 35-17 win @ RFK it was short lived though:mad: finished 4-12 that season:doh: .

Beating them in the 1972 NFC Championship game, 26-3, to go to our first Super bowl. It was Newyears eve, and my first playoff game. Kilmer was awesome

1982-83 NFC championship game 31-7, Monday night game in 1978 or 1979, 9-5, but as one guy said, all Dallass losses are fun.

Take a look at my sig...each new cowboy loss suddenly become my favorite!!!
Let me rephrase that...the most recent cowboy loss is always my favorite cowboy loss. "Snicker...Snicker...Snicker...(any of you remember a dog named Smedley...that's how I laugh in times like this!)
Go Skins...and I will always root for whoever is playing Dallas!!!
And it sucks if I ever have to root for Dallas to win in order for us to get in the playoffs...it just goes against my grain. But, since I want to get in the playoffs, I do what I must, even if it means I have to root for Dallas in such circumstances...man that leaves a bad taste in the mouth though, kinda like pukin...cowpukin that is.
GIBBS IS BACK...

Monday Night Football, Week 4, Sep 24 1979 at Cleveland: Cleveland 26, Dallas 7.
I was a kid in Cleveland at the time and this was back when Monday Night Football was IT. Howard Cosell in full blown obnoxious big mouth mode, Dandy Don singing "Turn out the lights, the party's over" etc. My parents let me stay up and watch the game, including the part where Cowboys receiver Drew Pearson puked on the sidelines. Needless to say, the televised puking was the only topic of conversation at school the next day!

Charley Taylor was also awesome in that game. He wore out two Cowboy Corners on his way to two TD's and 146 yards receiving.

Like others have said, all Cowboys losses are good ones. :D
Here are my TOP 5 losses of the Cowboys to our beloved Redskins.
1982 NFC Championship 31-17.
2005 home game 35-7.
1983 game in Dallas 31-10 where the Fun Bunch tried to do their "jump" in the end zone and some Cowboys players tried to break it up.
2005 Monday Night game 14-13.
1972 NFC Championship game 26-3.

Last year's 35-7 at home demolishment was pretty satisfying. The look Parcells gave to Newman coming off the field after his estrogen filled attempt at tackling Cooley at the end of the half was priceless. As were many other moments in that game.

The whole team had that deer caught in the headlight look after that 35-7 beatdown priceless I tell ya priceless. Again this game just validated the wk 2 matchup the skins were the better team. Hey cowboy fans remember your weak defense gave up over 500 or close to 500 yds to an Al Saunders offense last season. Guess who is our new Oc:D .

You're right, there were PLENTY of great moments. The Parcells face, our D-Line picking off Bledsoe, 4 sacks by Daniels, Washington's INT at the end of the first half to give us another late TD, Cooley's "HolyCrapIJustCaught3TDsInTheFirstHalf" face, and mostly the fact that the Cowboys were dead men walking already with less than a quarter in the books.
There have been alot more significant wins historically, but I can't think of many better wins when it comes to seeing the whole team completely lost and dejected.
GO SKINS :dallasuck

1982 NFC Championship Game need I say more
1985 Da Bear 44 Da Cowboy Zero worst loss in Cowboy History
1994 NFC Championship Game the 49ers beat them ending there chances for a 3 and eventual 4 peat
1986 NFC Divisional Playoffs @ Carolina. It was the Cowboy Haters dream game because Deion Sanders and Michael Irvin got knocked out of the game and it was hilarious watching Troy Aikman lose his cool late and yell at his WRs and Lineman.

I am happy whenever Dallas loses, the 2 wins this season were especially sweet. It was nice to watch a game where we completed dominated and punished them throughout. I will never get tired of running of the score on them.

Any Cowboy loss is good.
Here is my list of favorite Cowboy losses to the Redskins:
The 1982 NFC Championship game, which I still remember fondly.
The 31-10 win at Dallas in the second to last week of the 1983 season. Seeing Tom Landry lose his cool brought a smile to my face.
The 13-7 Monday Night win at Dallas in 1987. The significance of that game, of course, is that the Redskins won that game with an all-replacement squad while the Cowboys featured several regulars such as Danny White and Tony Dorsett.
Last but certainly not least are the two 2005 Redskin wins against the Cowboys. It felt so good to sweep Dallas. The Week 2 victory at Dallas was especially sweet.

My fav was last year's Monday night game that was awesome but some of you might remember we beat Dallas early in the season 20-17 with that famous sack/fumble of Aikman in the endzone and Emmitt Smith picks it up and tries to toss it to another player and fumbles it instead for a Redskins touchdown that was one of the all time great Redskin moments!
