Finally found sources to corroborate my story of Ekuban dragging Jeff George through the turf after a sack, now if only I could find video footage I remember asking about this on CZ a year or two ago and nobody knew what I was talking about
Those Campo Cowboy teams were terrible but they gave no fukks
All that said, who can deny that the melee was anything other than ELECTRIFYING. As soon as I saw Peters set out after Baker, my heart started pounding. Those are two bad-ass brahma bull mo-fo’s who were about go at it. Clear the decks! Peters did what good teammates do to teammates they really like and respect. I instantly recalled when Ebenezer Ekuban of the Cowboys dragged shyt-heel Jeff George after the whiste like a rag doll under the Dallas hole in the roof. None of our lineman even blinked. I can’t blame them.

Dec. 10, 2000, Texas Stadium, Cowboys 32, Redskins 13. Ebenezer Ekuban sacks Jeff George and drags him across the field as the 5-9 Cowboys cruised. None of George’s teammates step in on a play that crystallized why such a talented bunch never became a team and missed the playoffs despite having three Hall of Fame corners (Darrell Green, Deion Sanders and Champ Bailey), a Hall of Fame passrusher (Bruce Smith) and such others stars as Stephen Davis, Chris Samuels and LaVar Arrington.
