Gather 'round, kids, as gramps here tells a story from the olden days, back when the Cowboys played in a stadium with a leaky roof and Jerry Jones didn't know where his next million was coming from. This history lesson even comes with a happy ending. Maybe a salve for Sunday's wounds, too.
Anyway, seems there was this precocious team in 1991 that played beyond its years, finishing 11-5 then losing in the divisional round to the Lions.
Not just any Lions, either, but to Erik Kramer, a backup quarterback who riddled the Cowboys for three touchdowns and 341 yards.
