Halloween Comeback: Cowboys Stun Saints in 1984
Just days before Halloween in 1984, the New Orleans Saints seemed destined for victory, leading the Dallas Cowboys 27-6 entering the final quarter. However, the Saints encountered unforeseen challenges as Tony Dorsett’s 3-yard rush and Mike Renfro’s 12-yard touchdown reception sparked the Cowboys’ rally.
Jim Jeffcoat’s defensive fumble recovery in the end zone and Rafael Septien’s extra point tied the game at 27, forcing overtime. In a moment of pure jubilation, Mexican-American kicker Rafael Septién sealed the triumph for the Cowboys with a 41-yard field goal.
