More players are coming to mind: Dave Manders, Rayfield Wright, Ralph Neely, Calvin Hill, Duane Thomas, Dave Edwards, Herb Adderly, Charlie Waters, Cliff Harris.

A reporter asked Garrison about the best teams he had been a part of and the quarterbacks on those teams. Garrison said Meredith was the smartest quarterback he ever played with and that Craig Morton had the best arm. He then added if you had to pick a quarterback to go out and win one game, it would be Staubach.
When the story appeared in print it mentioned Meredith and Morton but left out his quote about Staubach. The quarterback confronted Garrison the next day in camp.
Garrison didn’t back down.
“Look, you anchor clanker, let me tell you something,’’ Garrison said, poking fun at Staubach’s time at the Naval Academy. “Meredith called his own plays. Morton called his own plays. Landry didn’t start calling plays until you started starting.
“Now, tell me who’s smarter.’’

I A story was told of Unitas and Raymond Berry after practice was over and they were still on the field…was almost dark and they still throwing balls and Berry ran that famous route way down field…caught the ball as he was stepping out of bounds. Told Unitas could hardly see the ball was so dark. Said Unitas said “Yea, but it was on the money” He could put them all to shame in his day.

I will never forget the SB when they played the Dolphins. The Show he and Duane Thomas put on was epic.
May he RIP.
And yes they broke the mold with Tom Landry.
