I am feeling really old....83 Sb was my senior year in High School. 87 Sb was my senior year in college. 92 was icing on the cake. Man it was a great time to be a Redskins fan.
What really made it cool was those teams won with class and humility. Something that is lost with today's players.
On yesterdays NFL network show, it felt like most of the credit was given to Rypien, WR's and passing game. It was clear to all of the Redskins fans back then that the Hogs and the running game were the true back bone of the team. But I understand for TV ratings and today's fans that only care about the passing game, long completions and scoring , you have to sell that for ratings. We used to say in 92 that while steppng back to pass, Rypien could eat ham sandwich and not get touched. That line was out of this world.
