Eric Dickerson: First I remember that I was excited we were playing Dallas. I think the year before we had beaten them in Dallas. Going to SMU and playing in Dallas in college, the Cowboys in Dallas were big. But I was excited about playing the Cowboys because I hated the Cowboys. And so I was looking forward to it.
One of the main reasons I was looking forward to it was because the late Cowboys head coach Tom Landry said that they thought that Rams head coach John Robinson made a wrong choice in drafting me because I ran too high, I wasn't going to last long — I didn't look that fast. And I was like, 'Oh, I'm going to give it to you.' And that's when I'd been in the league for a while, so I was going to do it for sure.
