    Might be worth noting that Staubach gave away the first 5 years of his career out of college, arguably the most productive years (or at least the foundational ones) of any professional athlete, to serve our country as he had agreed to do as a midshipman educated at Annapolis.

    I'm 52, when I was a kid (and I'm a Cowboy fan), Roger was one of the QB's all the kids wanted to be out in the back yard - my all time favorite player, he gave it all he had every play.

      Not me...I was one of those kids who lambasted the NFL for its custom, then, of converting Black college QBs to wide receiver, as de facto custom. (Did you know that Jefferson Street Joe actually beat out Terry Bradshaw in training camp head-to-head competition to be Steelers' starting QB? Unfortunate for Gilliam, he was sidelined early season because of injuries, Bradshaw was inserted as Steelers' starting QB...and JJJ never got another opportunity to win back the starting job.)

    My all-time favorite Dallas Cowboy.. I cannot tell you how many thrills I got from watching him play. No game was beyond his reach.. you never felt the Cowboys would lose as long as Roger was in the game. I remember a Sunday noon game against the St Louis Cardinals in 1974 or 1975, My brother and myself were at church service and my brother was listening to the game on a transistor radio while service was in progress. When the score reached 28-3 Cardinals leading as the 4th began, my brother decided to turn the radio off and stop risking Getting a beating because of listening to the ball game... By the time we arrived home after church service had ended we found out that Staubach had lead to Cowboys to a 31-28 comeback victory. Simply amazing. He was truly a great player but a much much better person. Thank you Mr Staubach.

    Roger Staubach remains the only QB to successfully transition from the bump and run era to the current 5 yard chuck rule. The 1977 season was the last season in the bump and run era and Staubach led the Cowboys to their 2nd Lombardi Trophy. The new rules were implemented prior to the 1978 season and all Roger did was lead the NFL in passer rating in 1978 and 1979. When it came to the QB position, Staubach filled every box (e.g., strong arm, accurate, mobile, a leader, thrived in the clutch, and he retired prior to the 1980 season with the highest QB rating in NFL history), and is easily one of the Top 5 QB's in NFL history.

    #46 ? Are you kidding me? I am an Eagles fan (for 46 years) and I will share with you what No. #12 meant to me. I seen my first "Roger Dodger" shellacking of my Eagles in 1974. I was 9 years old, It wasn't until I was 15 in 1979 when I finally seen my Eagles beat the Cowboys (1-10-0 from 75' to 79'). I went outside and jumped in a snowbank with my "Jaws" jersey on. Anyway, when No. #12 would take the field, I would look at him in awe, total awe, I thought he was invincible. I would sweat, and tense up watching him, scream at the TV get sent to my room, and on the day he retired I literally bawled my eyes out, because I wouldn't get to see my Eagles ever beat him again. I have never been in such awe with another NFL player ever again (although I did love McNabb), so ok, Cowboys, here you go coming from an Eagles fanatic, Roger Staubach is the greatest QB this Eagle has ever seen! -From Eagles with love. (Oh yeah, Captain America's 1976 Bicentennial Cowboys helmet? A freakin' classic!).

    When I was rooting for the Steelers back in the 70s dynasty era, I felt like a two touchdown lead with less than half the fourth quarter left was game over - UNLESS we were playing Roger Staubach or Ken Stabler. And of those two, Staubach was the one I feared (and respected) more. Super Bowl XIII, he gets the ball with less than seven minutes left, down 18, facing the Steel Curtain - and darn near got it done. If they had recovered the second onside kick I think he would have finished the comeback.

    • @josedopwell9645

I don't deal out accolades too easily, however, in these times Roger is a man that should serve as an example of how people need to be. I'm proud that he was and always will be a Dallas Cowboy, and I'm proud that my children have learned just how good a person he really is. Thank you Roger and God bless you!!!

    What an incredible player, his ability to scramble and throw on the run was amazing. Didn’t even become a full time starter until he was 29 and still got the Cowboys to 4 Super Bowls and won 2 in the 70s. Truly one of the 5-10 greatest qbs to ever play.

  • @aidancooney1834
    @aidancooney1834 4 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    Staubach is by no means the greatest passer of all time. But he is THAT guy. I’d pick him over any QB. In my opinion he is the greatest leader of all time. He made the most amazing comebacks & highlight plays. The Comeback Kid couldn’t even wow me over a comeback win than the Comeback Kid could.

      Steve Kloepping , in a sense he was the Elway of the 70s. Great arm and mobility. Teammates always felt they had a chance to win, especially if a game was close late. I'm a Steelers fan but I'm convinced Staubach was the best QB of the 70s. He was terrifying to face in late game clutch situations. With Staubach playing against your team you never felt safe until the final gun sounded. He was undoubtedly more clutch than some QBs who are ranked ahead of him on all-time lists.

Jim Hart, Terry Metcalf, Jim Otis, Dan Dierdorff, Conrad Dobler, Mel Gray....BUT it just so happened they played in the NFC East with the Eagles, Giants, Redskins, and..of course....The damn Dallas Cowboys!

He doesn't get much love these days because they didn't win enough and there were SO many great QBs in that era.

He lives up to the legendary status Cowboy fans hold him in but what I noticed about his style is how much it reminded me of how Steve Young played the QB position. Turns out RS12 was his absolute hero growing up and idolized him as a player and a man. If I ever encounter Mr. Staubach someday I'll first thank him for his service to our country and 2nd I'll thank him for directly inspiring the QB who lead my team to eventually winning the Superbowl in 94'. The two actually met for the first time during the coin-toss for the 1992 NFC Championship game.

    Roger the Dodger, Captain Comeback-great player-but even more importantly a great role model-a genuine Christian man-with solid values who happened to also be a great athlete-and whose post football career shows just how far being an honest and good Christian man can take you in life no matter what your calling is-God blesses those who honor and respect him and live life his way, following Christ-I can think of no better modern example of God keeping his promises to us than Mr Roger Staubach.

    I'm a Steelers fan, but #46??? Staubach was better then Bradshaw, and I frankly believe one could make an argument he was the best ever. Staubach dominated in his time... A time when it was exceptionally difficult to pass, and QBs were not protected. Besides that, he was monumentally held back by Landry's system --the central reason why he retired, because he still has plenty of game left in him but was tired of Landry's short leash. Staubach in today's NFL would tear it up. He's totally underrated, and I have nothing but the utmost respect.and appreciation for Mr. Roger Staubach.

    Not to mention he's the most successful football player in terms of net worth: he sold his real estate company to Jones Lang LaSalle for nearly $700 million. And he built his wealth at a time when even the best players needed to supplement their income with work during the offseason. Soldier, Superstar, Businessman - certainly no other NFL player has ever crossed over into those spheres as well as Captain Comeback.

    Go look at Staubach's career stats and keep in mind that barely played at all in '69, '70 and '72. He also didn't get the full time starting job in '71 until week 8. The man threw for 22,700 yards with a rating of 83.4 in basically just 8 and a half seasons. Six 1/2 of which had only 14 games.
