Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

That's a difficult one Quake because you have to take into consideration the staggered ages of the members here. So when you say all-time, that covers a vast amount of time, or are you asking just what one's age will permit them to remember?

as long as you can remember it then it counts

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

You talking about an individual performance?

yes i am

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

I have many , many great Redskin memories, but one game I will always remember was the 1966 game against the NYG at DC Stadium. It was a 72-41 game which the Giants won. At the time it was the highest scoring game in the history of the NFL. In that game, the Redskins scored every way one could imagine, They scored on offense defense, special teams, and a fumble recovery that went for more than 70 yds. It was truly a memorable game to watch despite coming up on the losing end.

I meant the Giants on the losing end, not the Redskins.

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

I would have to say SB XXII, Doug Williams, 2nd Qtr. I was stationed at Yokota AB in Japan and had a roomful of "anti-Skins" fans giving me grief at 10-0. I ran them all out of the room before the end of the 2nd Qtr., the same way the DW and the Skins ran the Broncos out of the "Murph". 35-10 Skins at half.

You could also go with the O-Line same day, Timmy Smith had a record setting game, wasn't touched until he was 8-10 yds thru the holes, and was never heard from again.

I agree. I caught hell from Bronco fans myself until...............QUARTER NO. TWO!

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

SB XXII Timmy Smith was pretty impressive. Don't have the exact stat line but I know he ran for over 200yds and set the SB record for rushing yards, a record that still stands. I wasn't even 10 years old during that game and I remember it like it was yesterday.

I don't know if Moss two TDs against Dallas in 05 was the greatest single game performance, but man it was my favorite Redskins moment since the '92 SuperBowl when Rypien and co waxed the Bills...

I like this thread. It's upbeat and takes some focus off all this Briggs/trading up stuff we have been beating to death lately.

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

Mark Brunell's NFL record of consecutive completions against Houston this past season.

:cheeky-sm

I think the ones mentioned so far are spot-on:

Riggins in the Super Bowl against the Dolphins
Moss against the Cowboys
Doug Williams in the Super Bowl against Denver

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

i like the superbowl 22 even though i wasnt even alive when it happened but the superbowl 26 was good too that actually was one of my first memories but the individual performance was Santana Moss in 2005 against the boys 2 tds in 3 minutes never gets old looking at that highlight

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

But one other really needs to be mentioned:

Troy Vincent's blocked FG, Sean Taylor's return, Nick Novak's game winner against Dallas. It was just such an insane roller coaster of emotions.

And I was there. One of the greatest sports memories I'll ever have.

how about santana moss against the jaguars that was great i was at that game greatest thing i have ever seen in person i lost my voice from screaming

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

so for the first time i started a thread that doesnt suck i am growing up on this site lol

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

all those were good,but mark mosely kicking the game winning fg against the giants in a snow storm,I think maybe the biggest clutch kick of all time
reason # 1.its frickin snowing!
2.its to win the game
3.he makes it were in the playoffs
4.its for the all time nfl record of most consecutive fgs made
5.the giants byron hunt gets a finger on the ball but mosely hit it so good it still made it

Vinateri's kick to win the sb was awesome,but I dont think any other kick in nfl history had so many different factors involved,I'll always remeber it
{moseley was named the nfls mvp that yr,the only kicker to ever win it}

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

I can't say it's for an individual, but

The defense in Super Bowl XVII (the Riggins run), especially the pass defense.

Miami had a 76-yard pass for a TD in the first half - and 80 net yards passing for the game.

They had 4 pass completions in the game - and 1 in the second half. (And got picked off once.)
They had 96 (net) yards running.

Excluding the pass play they had 100 net (offensive) yards.

I was watching in a neutral site (Boston). There were a lot of annoying Miami rooters there. The second half was spent just waiting to see if the Skins could overcome the big pass play and the kick return. The moment Riggins scored the Dolphins fans left. Even though the Skins were only up by 3 and there were 10 minutes left, everyone in the room knew the Dolphins wouldn't score again.

An amazing defensive show.

Great post. I was only 5 years old when that game was on, and I remember none of it. I've seen plenty of highlights, and I knew our D was great that day, but not lights out to that extent. I'll be watching that game in it's entirety as soon I can get my hands on it. God, I love me some defense!

This is my most memorable game since i was there that night. Those cowGIRL fans were in shock, i lost my voice yelling. When the game ended i was going to take a picture of the stadium scoreboard but they turned it off soon as the game was over.

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

I have to go with Doug Williams in the SB. It was just such an ass kicking that no one expected during the first quarter.... I still get emotional watching it.

In recent memory the Dallas Monday Night game stands out... cmon that was a huge win... MNF... in dallas as they induct the triplets into their ring of fame and we're down by 13 with 4 mins to go... scoreless no less.... thats a game that was meant for all of the fans who don't turn off games...

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

I agree with all, but let's not forget that game against the Bears in the playoffs when Darrell Green hurdles the guy on a punt return. What a moment!!!!!

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

My grand father died the week of the Super Bowl against Elway. My family cancelled the Super Bowl party. I will never forget that game, it was like it was meant to be. I will always remember Doug William's second quarter. I was in the 10th grade.

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

I don't see how anything could top Doug Williams' Super Bowl performance especially since it was essentially one quarter of perfection and it is probably the best quarter of football by any quarterback in the history of the game. The Redskins did nothing in the first quarter and Williams gets so hurt that Schroeder had to come in for a series.

First play of the second quarter, 1st and 10 on the 20 and the rest is history. They could have put up 100 points in 3 quarters if they had wanted to.

Re: what is the most rememberable single game redskin performance of all time?
 

how about Washington 26- Dallas 3. 1972 NFC championship. Kilmer to Charlie Taylor, down the sideline for about 45 yards and a touchdown

100% agree. We have no control over what is going to happen with Briggs / draft / trade-up vs. trade-down and no one is going to give up their season tickets or stop being a Skins fan no matter what they do.

I'm new to posting but check everyday for info. This is a great site and the Mods/Admin guys do a great job. Can we all have a group hug...:grouphug:

Go Skins!

My thougts exactly, but I would say Charles Mann & D. Green in that game, both made it happen. Of course, Green hurdles the dude & hurts his ribs so he gets mad props for that.

On offense, D. williams to R. Sanders over the broncos & that includes our O-line, cause they absolutely dominated, made Denver's D-line look like a Division II team!
