Where does this Cowboy's win Rank

Its up there for sure, but I can't put it over playoff wins.

This was a nice win but nothing can touch 1982. Winner goes to the SB, loser goes home. Back then the teams hated one another, not the case now.

Umm Mike Jenkins pushed Garcon and Moss went over and hit him...They still are hasty to one another.

The dominant NFC Championship wins over the Boys in '72 and '82 are definitely the tops. After those, I would put this Thanksgiving win ahead of the 2005 regular season sweep (Santana Moss miracle in Dallas; Cooley 3 TDs in blowout win during drive to the playoffs) for the following reason: This was a national coming out party for RG3. Those who hadn't seen him might have thought he was a lot of hype, but after that performance, the NFC East is officially on notice that the Redskins are relevant now, and will be for the next 10+ years with RG3's superior QB play.

as far as games ive seen, it would have to be in this order the monday night miracle, the the 2007 finale against dallas when we beat them by 21, and then this one

Nothing can top the playoff victories,cmon man,its the playoffs!.For me,this was a great win,but the Moss game still tops it for the sheer joy I felt at end of game.
The skins have found so many ways to lose games at the end that I cant even enjoy a game anymore,I keep waiting for them to screw it up.So when Dallas started their comeback Thursday it was more sheer relief that we won then joy.On the other hand,the Moss game I thought we had no chance of winning,so when we pulled that out of our ass at the end I went around the house screaming and waking everyone up in the house to tell them what just happened

I was at the 1982 NFC Championship game in RFK Stadium. That was the most amazing atmosphere I could possibly imagine! That has to be our greatest win ever against Dallas.

This win, our first on Thanksgiving Day, has to rank very high. Maybe even in the Top 5.

1. 1982 Championship game.
2. Monday Night Miracle.
3. Brunell throws two late bombs to Santana Moss for the win.
4. Thanksgiving Day win?

It has to be a special win being on Thanksgiving. Probably the one I went the most nuts over the win was the blocked fg and Sean Taylor recovering and we kick a fg the next play. Any cowboys win is great. It was tough the norv years. He hardly could beat them.

I was around 18 in the 80's for those big wins but I just don't remember them. First would have to be the Monday night Moss/Brunell game because so many people had gone to bed to get up Tuesday to learn Dallas lost the game. Also it was a game I where I was wondering why I was still up watching. This was probably second because it was in Dallas, RGIII first national game, and it was on Thanks Giving.
