5 greatest Randy Moss performances vs. the Dallas Cowboys

1999 (Playoffs)

Stats:

• 5 catches
• 127 yards
• 1 touchdown

Dallas got another crack at Randy Moss when they went up against the Vikings in the first round of the 1999 NFC Playoffs. Facing Moss earlier in the season didn’t seem to do much good for the Cowboys as the Minnesota receiver ended up having an even better performance this time around.

With the score tied at 10 late in the second quarter, Jeff George launched a 58-yard pass that easily landed in the hands of Moss, who then backpedaled his way into the end zone for a Vikings touchdown. Dallas even had the Minnesota receiver double-covered on the play, but it didn’t matter.

Moss ended up catching a few more passes during the game and he even returned a few punts as well. In fact, he ended up returning the most punts of any Vikings player in 1999 and he even ran one back for a touchdown.

Moss’ efforts in this playoff showdown were able to propel Minnesota to their second win of the year over the Cowboys, who never had any answer when it came to stopping the Hall of Fame receiver.
