[quote=Leader In Sports;724008]Pretty sure Monk too.

Monte Coleman was the only guy on DEFENSE who was in all 3.[/quote]

I was going to say, wasn't Donny Warren in all three on Offense?

Re: Which Jersey...
 

[quote=munny;724587]ROFL. Right up there with a Zendejas. Or the Ade Jimoh suggestion. A throwback Jimoh would be Barry Wilburn. Anyone remember that waste of oxygen?

I liked Sanders too. The thing that stops me on Sanders is that I actually met him two years back at the Hall of Fame induction for Monk/Green. I was standing in line to take a leak and recognized him and talked a bit. Real nice guy. BUT... [B]he was as wide as he was tall. I mean the man turned positively round. [/B]Nothing wrong with the per se, but now I have that picture stuck in my head! Just doesn't fit my football mental image:-)

I think I have narrowed it down to Lachey, Coleman, Houston, or Didier.

Seeing all these names and all of these suggestions does make me a bit sad for my kids though. They will never grow up having such a large number of players they can identify with. Free agency pretty much killed that. As a kid I always knew that I would see the Hogs(including Didier and Warren) year after year. I would see Okie, Kaufman, Coleman, Gouviea, Milot and of course Mann, Manley and Butz. The skill positions would change some(Riggins/Monk/Clark were stalwarts) but that always happens. Remember names like Virgil Seay, Alvin Garrett, Charlie Brown? Hell what about Otis Wonsley, Doc Walker and Mike "I-Never-Fair-Catch" Nelms? Things just change so much now. I think the game misses it, to be honest.[/quote]

When was that taken? He looks a lot better there than when I met him.

[quote=munny;724611]I was going to say, wasn't Donny Warren in all three on Offense?[/quote]

Donnie Warren, Russ Grimm, Joe Jacoby, Jeff Bostic were also in all 3. I have a feeling there might be one or two more from the offense, but I don't have time to check.

Re: Which Jersey...
 

42 Charlie Taylor

Re: Which Jersey...
 

I always thought Mosley #3 was one of the best clutch kickers of all time and a classic Redskin...I think he was on all superbowl teams too...not sure.

Why not Jurgensen or Charley Taylor or Dexter Manley or Mann
Dave Butz is another classic Redskin

I remember Charlie Brown.
You could put all the numbers and names of the "fun bunch" or "the hogs" on one shirt...that would be cool....
Or....you could put on a jersey of classic redskins coaches:
George Allen, Vince Lombardi, Joe Gibbs

or even Jack Kent Cooke

Re: Which Jersey...
 

Manley!!

Don't want to see the next shot taken then...

Re: Which Jersey...
 

Tons of great responses. To address a few:

Mosley -- way to pretty. And a kicker. I don't wear kickers numbers.

Charlie Taylor/Larry Brown -- Awesome guys. I just have no memories of them really. The wayback vault only has room for a few from them. I started watching football when I was about 7 and the fuzzy memories are really of two guys. Chris Hanburger and Pat Fischer.

So, in the end, I went with #37 Pat Fischer. One of the hardest hitting corners you will ever see and had more interceptions than D. Green. The guy was just a 4 foot nothing mad dog out there. If you never saw him take on Harold Carmichael it is hard to understand.

I did find another site that was selling cheap jersey's though, and I bought some Christmas presents(3 Grimm's + Orakpo) -- and one of the Grimm's is for myself as well. Hopefully these hardnosed players will provide some good karma for our year. We sure need it. Only way we win games this year is to junkyard dogs.

You are evil.

Re: Which Jersey...
 

For me...

I'm thinking:

65 - Butz
87 - Downtown Charlie Brown

or one no one has said...

#24 - Kelvin Bryant ... I always loved that guys some reason...

But... you also could go with Babe Laufenberg (he was on the Skins in '83, then '85, then '87 and never played a snap in reg. season... lol), Cary Conklin, Stan Humphries, Jeff Rutledge, Trent Green, John Friez, or Tony Banks! lol

Or even better yet... saved the best for last...

anyone remember the name Ed Rubbert, Anthony Allen, or Lionel Vital? They only went 3-0 for us as a QB, WR & RB in '87 with one of those wins against a Cowboy team that had Randy White, Tony Dorsett, and Ed "Too Tall" Jones during the strike!

Rubbert - 110 passer rating, 4 TDs in 3 games
Vital - 346 yds rushing in 3 games, 2 TDs

...not sure what #s they wore...

#87 Anthony Allen (I remember his #) is my personal choice of those... does anyone remember that he still holds a record for catching 8 balls for 255 yards (!) and 3 TDs in that first replacement game vs the Cardinals?? I'll never forget those replacement games.... BTW that movie "Replacements" with Keanu Reeves is based on the '87 Redskins ... just more FYI for ya... lol

Re: Which Jersey...
 

I ended up going with two -- Russ Grimm and Pat Fischer. I am sure nobody else is wearing a pat Fischer.

Thanks for the help guys.

Hate to tell you, but Pat Fischer is one of my best selling jerseys.

Re: Which Jersey...
 

Really? Wow. I have never seen one. Doesn't bother me because I like to see the guy get the respect he so richly earned, but I am quite surprised.

I actually carry 2 styles and am going to do a third with him in November. The other 2 styles are featured in my 2011 calendar. Pat is the only jersey that is in the calendar twice as a Redskin.
