In this episode of Greatest Sports Legends, host Michael Jordan explores the record-setting career of Roger Staubach. In 1971, Staubach assumed the full-time quarterbacking duties for the Cowboys and led them to their first Super Bowl victory, 24-3 over the Miami Dolphins. He was named Most valuable player of Super Bowl VI on January 16, 1972, completing 12 out of 19 passes for 119 yards and 2 touchdowns, and rushing for 18 yards. Staubach was a 6-time Pro-Bowler (1971, 1975-1979), and led the Cowboys to another NFL championship win in the 1977 season. He threw for 183 yards and a touchdown, with no interceptions, in Dallas' 27-10 victory in Super Bowl XII. Staubach also lead the Cowboys to Super Bowl appearances in Super Bowl X and Super Bowl XIII, where they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers both times. His offensive teammates included standout receivers Drew Pearson and Golden Richards, tight ends Billy Joe Dupree and Jackie Smith, running backs Robert Newhouse, Calvin Hill, and Hall of Famers Tony Dorsett (Running Back) and Rayfield Wright (Offensive Lineman). Staubach was one of the most exciting NFL players of the 1970s. Known as "Roger The Dodger" for his scrambling abilities, and also as "Captain Comeback" for his many fourth quarter heroics, Staubach had a penchant for leading scoring drives which would lead the Cowboys to improbable victories. He led his team to twenty-three come-from-behind victories in the fourth quarter, with 17 of these coming in the last two minutes. This video contains an in-depth interview as well as footage of the games and touchdown passes that made this quarterback stand out in history. His career in Dallas will remain eternally unrivaled in the eyes of all Cowboys fans.
