…so i watched the last 5 minutes of the 1979 playoff game: Rams vs Cowboys. The Waddy game.

I hadnt remembered that Ferragamo had stunk up the second half. He was, like, 2 for 10 with two INTs. When i picked up the game with about three mins left he had just fumbled the ball, but luckily it bounced out of bounds.
The announcers, Vin and George Allan were actually speculating that if the Rams got the ball back with under two mins to play they might replace Ferragamo with Bob Lee….

The vid won’t play here–we have to use it as a link to play it on youtube. Unfortunately when you go to youtube the vid just starts over.

I did locate (I think) the part you;re talking about. It starts I believe at 55:43 in out of a 1:15:36 game. Just after that, is when they show Lee on the sideline and mention him. Btw the defensive stand against Dallas there before Vince comes back in is great. Youngblood gets a sack on 3rd and 10, and does it chasing Staubach down on that broken leg.

I think Hacksaw gave Staubach a concussion on Roger’s TD pass to Sauldi… Staubach wasn’t the same after that play….
