If Reeves had gone to Dallas instead of Switzer, I fully believe that Cowboys team would have gone 19-0. I even told all my friends at the time I believed that to be so.
I still don't understand how Reeves contribution to the NFL is so often overlooked. He took the Broncos three times to the Super Bowl, the Falcons to the Super Bowl and the Giants to the playoffs (a very poor, untalented Giants team).
Definitely worthy of the Hall of Fame.
