“They aren’t going to win an whole lot with Rodgers playing quarterback” Oh how times have changed... 7:26
He musta been high when he said that
@@william8516 Well that line is of course taken out of context cause I'm assuming Cris was talking about how they were just dinking and calling screens for him. OF COURSE that wasn't the case when he became the full-time starter
@@emssasukeisunderrated7946 ik
Definitely taken out of context lmao.
And Chris Collinsworth of all people to say it lol
Tony Romo was just so good. His accuracy was tremendous
He gets disrespected way too much.
kingturtle 19 yup bunch of haters.
Cowboys #1 QB. Sad he didn’t win a big one.
Jose Arellano to me he’s clearly the greatest cowboys QB cause he never had a loaded cast like staubach and aikman but people will disagree
@@iloading_ Staubach was the best QB Dallas ever had. If it weren't for his military commitments there may have not been a late 60s Packers dynasty.
This was the game that showed us Packers fans that life would go on after Favre. We were used to losing in Dallas and I think it shows in Favre's reckless play. He went full Gunslinger in this game. When Aaron entered the game, I remember thinking that we had no chance. Following the game, I remember talking with my Dad and we agreed that "that Rodgers kid looked pretty good out there." Boy, we had no idea that we were about to trade out one legend for another. This game was the first glimpse of that. Great memories.
Your a packer fan so I get your frustrations with Brett's style of play. But Brett farve is a living legend and the game today is a whole other story ! Brett slinged the ball and was great at it. Not to mention all the hits he would take!
Very true!
theMOYER now y’all be winning in Dallas 😔😔😔
As a cowboys fan.. idk why but I love Packers and Cowboys games.. always think of this one leading up to them. Good win on y’all last week! Best of luck with the rest of the season
Yes I remember watching this game I was a freshman in college and I had a feeling right away that we were going to have another special QB
Cowboys 2007: Who is Aaron Rodgers
Cowboys 2019: Oh yeah..
Hahahahah they call him now "daddy"
@@JMartin. its ok he has our number now but when time catches him The Tables Will Turn
@@JR-pp3ed true
@Daniel Martinez time will tell
@Daniel Martinez Just like no one thought Dak can Beat Russell Wilson in a playoff game
7:27 “Aren’t going to win a while lot with Aaron Rogers playing QB” hehehe
Scott Childs “unless things change drastically”
Which they did
They still don't play well with rodgers at quarterback
@@calebprenger3928 trolling
Scott Childs sure did win a lot vs my cowboys
Butt Hole and won again lmao
2007 Tony Romo is pure bliss. He was the reason I really got into the football and of course why I became a cowboys fan. Hasn’t been the same since he’s been gone. Love Dak, just something about Tony being my role model as a kid I miss. Really wish he got a ring. Romo, Witten, and Ware deserved one together.
Michael Carbone Exact same here man, I grew up watching the Cowboys and loved the way he played. He’s always been my favorite player on and off the field and he was one of the toughest qbs (played through a ton of injuries because of terrible o-line). He deserved better
Michael Carbone Couldn't agree more. Even J.J. himself loved that group of players. But the defense was just too weak.
@R. Flores You're right. But we're not Bronco fans.
Man that TD throw to Fasano. Pure art.
Danny white part 2 basically or brad Johnson with mobility
Who’s that lead announcer? He sounds like he’s literally narrating a sporting event without changing the volume of his voice.
TEAM CLASSIC SONIC Bryant Gumbel. Dull and annoying. His older brother, Greg is better
Joe Buck 2.0
@@kvngirvng9475 Joe buck haven't been bsd since 2011
Joe oh yeah lmao
Makes me wanna fall asleep😴
This is crazy Witten and Rodgers are gonna both be on the field this Sunday.
Robert Young And Tramon Williams lol
CKM and mason crosby
Romo should be there too
NOT BOT uh no
@@butthole9580 I think he meant as a commentator
Aaron’s throwing motion was a lot different back then
That was one of the complaints about him coming out of College. He had a poor throwing motion and the way he held the ball was a little awkward. Probably one of the reasons he dropped. But with a veteran like Favre there to help him improve (along with being in McCarthy’s QB academy), Rodgers was able to improve and by 09, his motions looked much better.
Yeah you can tell forsure, way different these days.
Trace Chmielewski he still holds it that way, not as awkward doe.
@@tempest20000 favre didn't help him
@@butthole9580 he doesn't hold it nearly that high anymore. His release is still lightning quick in this video.
Win or loose, Skip Bayless’ reaction will be priceless next Monday

@@Enigmalake The irony of your comment is embarrassingly hilarious. I hope you’ve grown enough in the past 3 years to realize how deep you were on the wrong side of the Dunning-Krueger Effect
@@fakename5308 what? Wtf is that supposed to mean? Skip is still the same or worse
tony romo is so under appreciated
Even as a Eagles fan I agree. Same as McNabb
Drpepper1525 Absolutely!
Cowboys fan, But I have to agree. McNabb was a bad man. Romo vs. Donovan was always a fun tine
5:44 - The "Get your popcorn ready" play
Interesting, Favre going out of the game. As most of you know, Brett was the arguably the all time iron man of NFL QBs. It was hard to make him miss a game, and the record book reflects it. The part that most people completely miss is that Romo was tough as nails. It's just that when a 275 pound 500 pound bench pressing DL pile drives you into the ground, snapping a clavicle or breaking a back, there you go. Romo wasn't by ANY stretch "fragile" - he just suffered a couple of monstrous crushing hits knocking him out of action, and haters call him "fragile." That's so not even close. Both Favre and Romo were warriors.
I never forgot. Romo was always a warrior. I saw him get up from some of the nastiest hits.
Bill Woo this dude Romo literally broke his back for his team, and they disrespected him on his way out, even tho he should’ve finished with his team
Romo had a trash oline from 06-13, and was constantly targeted and not protected at all by the league. Not even in old school rules standards. They would allow Romo to get drilled seconds after throwing the ball alot and would not call anything. So teams kept doing it, because it's a tactic to shake a qb up. Vikings fans always cry bringing up new Orleans targeting Favre. Yet if you watch that Cowboys vs vikings in playoffs the week before, they were targeting Romo big time.
Then you watch other qbs's like Brady play and he gets rubbed wrong by a jersey and they call roughing the passer. I've seen a roughing the passer called when a player just wrapped up Prescott who still had the ball.
Favre was the “iron man” cause he never felt any pain lol….dude had so much opiates in his system he could damn near start a pharmacy
Biggest thief too
It was a loss, but the legacy of Aaron Rodger was born on this day
Brian Absolutely...and he hasn't lost in Dallas since... including Superbowl 45 against the Steelers!
@@piijay14 rodgers absolutely owns the cowboys in head to head matches, just as brady owns the steelers. it's always that type of certain qbs gets the better of that certain team.
@@1990Thunderbolt I agree but as your know...Every streak must end at some point.! Just as during the 90s Cowboys own The Packers. Farve lost every single game in the old Texas Stadium! Including this one featured in this video where he was knocked out of the game urshering in the Rogers era. Rogers now is undefeated in ATT stadium which includes SB 45. So it's all about era's and streaks. Roger's streak is coming to a close. Hope you enjoyed it. You did manage to get one lousey SB title out of it!
@@piijay14 dude i'm not a packers fan lmfao. have you not notice my profile pic lol
@@1990Thunderbolt I never suggested you were a Packers fan. I was just stating that Streaks do happen but they always end. That goes for both winning and loosing streaks!
Damn Favre looked reckless throwing jump balls into double coverage.
Which mightve been a good thing as rodgers learned not to do that too much lol
He always did that. Often across the body lol
THANK YOU!! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GAME FOR SOOO LONG!!! THANK YOU NFL THROWBACK!!
Should've been a rematch between these two in the NFC championship game that year. That being said I don't think either team could've beat New England in the Superbowl. What the Giants did in the playoffs that season was crazy.
Had the Packers gone on and won Favre would have retired for good beating the same team he won his first Superbowl against
@@MrCodeman2036 No doubt and that would've been way better for both Favre and Rodgers because there wouldn't have been any need for Favre to prove anything more and Rodgers would've started on a clean slate without all the drama. But when u look at how Green Bay struggled against the Giants, I jus don't believe they could've beat New England. It probably would've been close but not enough. The Giants defense was the game changer in that playoff run.
@@bocronfield6478 Agreed - I always think about 'what if the Packers got to the SB that year?'. Patriots probably would have racked up 35-38 points or so, and Packers would've come in around mid to high 20s. Same with the Cowboys (who would have played them better than their regular season matchup that year).
@@ryantrudell4686 And NE would've been 19-0. That Giants team is the weirdest Superbowl champ ever.
@@bocronfield6478 the Extreme Cold Weather is why we lost that Game! Favre being as old as he was couldn't handle the conditions Eli being young could, that's why we lost! It was one of the Top 5 Coldest Games of All Time!!
This was a great game, shame it had to be stuck on NFL Network only.
On NFL Network only, at a time when few people had NFL Network. I remember people where going to different watch parties around town being thrown at the houses of those who had it because almost nobody could watch it at home.
I remember this game so well. My grandpa and uncle had to come over because they didn't get the channel on their TV because thursday night was relatively new.
Also Bryant Gumble IS as bad as I remember.
full circle with love coming in right now for an injured rodgers
Yeah man its insane
Who else noticed Romo trying to slap the ball out of Rodgers hands at 14:06 lmao 😂
Anthony flores LMBO
Goat
Hahaha
I don’t know who it was but someone on the redskins did this, this past weekend when they played the pats. Got a big laugh out of it 😂
@Angel Cadena hey guy re watch it bud b4 u open ur mouth kiddo. He clearly was trying to knoc it out. Why in the world would romo patt another teams QB for a good play? He was fuccing with Rodgers u could tell hell he had a huge smile while he did it.
Man do I miss the cowboys throwback jerseys. Sucks that the NFL helmet rule doesn’t allow them to switch to the white helmets anymore.
The Packers that season made their living with the short passing game. While Favre was in the game, for whatever reason, Favre tried to bomb the ball down field again and again. I remember when Favre went out thinking "Rodgers did really well in the preseason, maybe he can get them going again", and he did. But Tony Romo was too good, that night. He was outstanding. Great game.
Favre was a gun slinger
He'd try to squeeze it into almost any coverage
But when it's 2 on coverage he should throw the ball where the receiver has a chance to either catch or get PI called on the defense
I remember this game like it was yesterday, and you are exactly right! The Pack that season made their living off of short crossing patterns and quick slants and Y.A.C. yards. Then for this matchup of 10-1 teams with high scoring offenses, it's like favre had it in his head before the game started that they would need to score 40 pts and he totally deviated from what they had been doing successfully all season long!!
@@NWI_Steel That's exactly how I remember it! It's nice to know I wasn't the only one. Haha
Here’s the Favre dilemma. He loves to throw it deep. And that was his problem. Sure everyone says “Oh the Gunslinger was great” but said Gunslinger made way to many mistakes.
While Mike Holmgren was there, he was keeping Favre in check. Medium passes and Short passes were Green Bay’s plays. He didn’t air it up a lot until the late 90s. After 98 and with Holmgren gone, he couldn’t be reigned it. Ray Rhodes couldn’t do it, Mike Sherman couldn’t do it and McCarthy couldn’t do it. Favre was at his worst with Sherman. 2001 NFC Divisional round anyone? Or 4th and 26? Favre (while playing like a gunslinger) shot himself in the foot.
By 2007, my dad and I were sick of Favre’s air ball antics. So when we see this young guy playing well and moving the ball better than Favre, let’s just say we were excited.
Brad Diekow that “score 40 points” mindset killed the Packers a lot in the 2000s. Like the 2001 Divisional game against the Rams. Favre had it in his head that he needed to sling the ball all around the field and he ended up turning the ball over six times! 6 TIMES! He just needed to calm down and focus. Problem was it seemed like he didn’t do that a lot in the 2000s.
Rodgers had a mullet back in 08? Didn’t see this coming
The title of the video clearly says "week 13 2007".....where you get 08 from?
pantherteen1 The Mullet was back In style in 2007. Fashions usually run in 20 year cycle!
piijay14 mullets have not been ‘in style’ since the 90s. Really the mid 90s to be exact. But Rogers did not have an actual mullet per say. His hair was longer from front to back.
@@mcuthor7831 That was a Mullett hair cut he was wearing. Quite similar to Aikman's shorter version in his rookie season of '89! Fashions usually run in a 20 year cycle. Once you've been around as long as I have you'll notice this.
“Tramon Williams just got baptized.”
That’s great, absolute perfection
Slim Jim 😂
Tony Romo is in my opinion the most underrated player of all time, he had some of the worst defenses and o-lines throughout his career. If he had the team Dak has now im sure he would have a superbowl
And no running game..
Rick Oldham I agree 1000%
Rick Oldham They don't talk about those WEAK defenses he had all those 8-8 seasons
😂😂 yea right BULLLLLSHIT Romo had Demarco Murray from 2011 to 2014 along with Dez Bryant why he win a super bowl back then
@@bmorebirdsnest92 DeMarco Murray played only 1 full season in 2014...and they went 12-3 with Romo passing for 3700 yards with 70% completion and 34 touchdown in 15 games.. Get ur facts straight!
These Cowvoys unis need to comeback 👌🔥 especially the helmet
Bro, Romo Deserved A Ring..
Al Harris used to be one of my favorite players back in the day.
Greg Gumbel is one of my favorite announcers, had no idea his brother was so bad though
Who’s here after Jordan love played against the Chiefs
Was this for inspiration cause I still need some I see know similarities to Rodgers
Here after he got done touching the chiefs and cowboys
Favre's face at 10:02 says everything. He was like "Damn this kid is better than me, gonna be my last season here"
1000%. Favre knew. That’s exactly why he started acting a fool that got him traded.
That's Not true at all. Compare the stats in 09. Favre was still better
@@seansnipes8334just stop. Rodgers was right on his heals, you can ask Charles Woodson and even the guy who hates Rodgers, Greg Jennings. Rodgers just needed experience. Rodgers Super Bowl run, specifically the Falcons and Steelers game were the best 2 games you can ever watch a QB play. Rocket ball after rocket ball
These old nfl classics are better than today’s NFL games
Back when the Cowboys could beat the Packers. Back when times were simpler...
Not in 1996
Romo had one of the most beautiful throwing motions I've ever seen, and this was early on.
Man Aaron rodgers’s throwing motion was really a lot different back then wow
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO REQUEST THIS GAME!!!!!!! THANK YOU NFL THROWBACK
We can read minds 🤯
@@NFLVault How about TO's 4 TD Game vs the Redskins in I believe either 07 or 08
Been looking for this video never could find it!!!! Thanks man. Great vid
Aj hawk and john Kuhn were the unsung heroes of this era love them boys absolute work horses, also credit to al Harris never forget his overtime pick 6 against seahawks wildcard
Man, I miss these Cowboys. Even though they never won a ring, Romo was an elite QB. A little football trivia: who was the “21” decal both teams wore on their helmets paying tribute to?
Sean Taylor
Washington Redskins/Football Team Sean Taylor🕊
Thank you. I've been trying to find this for so long.
That looks like better clarity/sharpness/fidelity than 2019 ?
Yep HDTV quality has been trash for years now
Viewership is dropping, why would they even care about the quality now. Old NFL is where it is at.
Dang I thought I was the only one, 2020 quality some “ HD TV looks horrible !!!”
Miss Texas Stadium and those uniforms 😔
Need some classic Broncos games!
These were the 2 best records in the NFC for the top seed. The eventual SB winning Giants were struggling to stay in WC contention. The Giants vs Cowboys v Packers Division and NFC championship were EPIC old school football. FBs, TEs, Line play, theyre on YT. Lesson: Teams are either getting better or declining from hidden injuries piling up.
And as a packers fan all you can do is respect the giants for pulling off an improbable run. One of the greatest runs in postseason history if not the greatest, literally their rings are off improbable runs, it’s amazing. That’s probably how they’re gonna win their next one, with no one seeing them coming
Favre never won at Texas Stadium which includes 3 straight playoff losses (93 & 94 NFC Divisional, 95 NFC Champ) & 2 losses to Jason Garrett (1994 Thanksgiving Day, 1999)
His only playoff win against Dallas came in Jan 2010
As QB of the Vikings
Michael Watts and it’s crazy Rodgers has a good winning record against Dallas twice in the playoffs as a packer.. #DallasFan
I'ts crazy Rodgers have amazing retrospect in Jerryworld.
cpk1994 exactly I feel like Rodgers plays harder against Dallas just to rub it Farve’s face for not being a mentor and for being selfish but who knows 🤷♂️
cpk1994 just cause they’re friends don’t mean nun they respect each other but what I said I sure do believe it
cpk1994 another fool that believes whatever they see or hear
Thanks for the upload, I was really hoping for the ‘Dez dropped it” game though 🏈
Mason Crosby and Aaron Rodgers are only the 2 packers left from that year
Incorrect, Tramon Williams is back with them as well!
@@SilhouetteLifter damn I forgot about him
@@calebloera5208 yeah, dude's been around a while
Sad that the packers won't let go

That cowboys unis is 🔥
I need Dallas to wear those throwbacks again. I’m feening 🙃

Aaron rodgers first NFL TD!
I don't care what anybody says, Romo was a badass. He was accurate, smart, and had a cannon. He made throws that dak could never make, and made it took easy. Never had a defense, and didn't have an o-line until his last 2 seasons
This game scared Favre.
He became a star when Majowski went down. He was worried Aaron was gonna do the same to him
Yeah, I've heard Favre didn't help Rodgers at all.
Rodgers had that 89 troy aikman hair
12:33 look at the 07' playoff NFC picture forgot my lions started off like 6-2 ended losing bunch of ball games ended up going 7-9 than next year 0-16
Born and raised in Dallas. The 2007 Cowboys were one of my favorite teams to watch. At only 9 years old, it was the best I had seen the Cowboys play up to that time. This game is a testament to their legacy, with the excitement of Romo, T.O., and Witten, to the dominance of the Dallas D. With the way the 2021 teams playing, I have a feeling McCarthy (and Al Harris, the Dallas DB coach) might have to face Rodgers, making this old game all the more meaningful.
My family and I went to this game! Dad and sister are big cheese heads, mom and I root for the Boys. We actually sat about 8 rows in front of Deanna Favre, and my sister got her picture taken with her. Really cool memory. Thanks for uploading this game (could only find low resolution versions on this site).
Kinda wild that the Packers went as long as they did without a road win vs the Cowboys until Matt Flynn started for them in ‘13.
One of the most early footages of aaron rodgers
Beautiful classic 😌❤️
Those cowboy jerseys tho.🙏😍
Same
Then we have home field advantage and lose to the Giants. To this day that irks me....
I was at this game it was my 12th birthday 🎂 the energy was fucking electric that stadium was amazing. No bad seat in the house, the energy was so tightly contained
As a Giants fan watching this game is interesting because I don't recall Rodgers playing that year. But that was likely the best Dallas team since their last championship squad. I was proud of how the Giants handled adversity that postseason.
They didn't just upset the Pats, they defeated a pair of 13-3 teams on the road after beating the Bucs in Tampa. Strange that it's the only postseason matchup between these two storied franchises (Giants-Cowboys).
The end of an era and the start of an era
What an awesome year in football. Granted my team got beat in the SB in a heartbreaker, i loved that 2007 season as a whole.
The college season that year was absolute lunacy too, so football in 2007 was pure bliss on multiple levels. The Packers having that 13-3 season seemingly out of nowhere was fantastic too, albeit losing in the playoffs… yet again. 🤦🏻♂️
Collingsworth' love affair with Rodgers begins slowly but surely...
He had to learn to love him
The passing of the Baton Farve to Rodgers
Even tho he didn’t win, this may be the game we all realized Rodgers is ready
This is the most least interesting announcer I've ever heard.
Wish Patrick Crayton would of caught that ball against NY in the divisional round, That 07 team was good
The year we should have won the Superbowl. That was a very good team. 😢😢. I was there for Tony Romo's first game and I knew he was going to be our QB. Because when he was ON, he was the best. IMO. Thanks for the memories and the video!!!
I was convinced one of these two teams would go to the Super Bowl that season
The game when I knew Aaron Rodgers would be special
Yep. I was there. I remember Cowboys defensive guys saying that postgame.
PackersInsider yes I remember watching it as a kid like wow watch when he get his chance to play
Hearing this makes me appreciate Greg Gumbel's play by play skills 👍
Collinsworth need to shut up
Crazy how the Giants beat both of them and the 18-0 Pats in one playoff run.
It just goes to show you that no matter what happens during a season, as long as your team wins enough games to have a shot at the postseason, your team can put it together, and win the Super Bowl, no matter how bad your team may look in a game or two. That's what I love about the NFL.
Don't remind me
Honestly My Favorite Dallas Cowboy Game.
I may have missed it in these highlights, but there was an al harris pick on the sidelines on a ball meant for T.O. that got overturned. That was a pretty big play in this game too.
Crazy Brett Favre was winless in Dallas during his Packer Career
Also how hot and on a roll was Chris Cooley that he was brought up in the best tight end conversation during the broadcast? It was an exciting couple weeks, I remember it well
Romo was a beast, TO was a beast, RIP Marion barber. And Packers defense have let Rodgers down since Day 1 😂
That Rodgers kid showed real potential
07:26 7:26 "Aren't going to win a whole lot with Aaron Rodgers playing Quarterback, unless things change drastically." LMAO good call Collinsworth!
On this day a legend was born.
This was maybe the most anticipated regular season game in history.
The day rodgers was born...brett Favre said..there's goes my job.vikings fan here.
10:03 "Aight, imma head out.......after the season" - Brett Favre
I think I remember this game. And definitely remember early Rogers games
Aaron Rodgers playing like a veteran from day one ☝️
It’s inconceivable to me how we’ve had two great QB’s in the last 28 yrs and only have two Super Bowls!
Romo could've been a first ballot hall of famer if not for the untimely mistakes made. Not just by Romo, but by the team. Specifically the one where he fumbled the snap for the Field goal and got tripped up a yard short. If he would've made it? His career would've been WAY different.
Chris Collinsworth: Arent gnna win alot with rodgers at QB.
Oh Silly Chris .... 🤣🤣🤣 you had no idea
Mason Crosby goes from Black hair to Gray Hair in 2007 to 2020=14 straight Seasons for him playing for the Packers
7:26 "They arent gonna win a whole lot with Aaron Rodgers unless things change drastically."
Legend says to this day he's still eating those words.
That iconic t.o celebeation
because ive seen it in slow motion so many times, i forgot how quickly it was actually over lol
The Cowboys should have kept Roy Williams. Dude was a great safety
10:02 when you realize you’re about to lose your job
this was the game when farve knew his days were numbered
Rodgers throwing mechanics were different back then
Nobody seemed to notice that - that man put in WORK to get better!
