He still has the Super Bowl record for yards. Hail to the Redskins!

I don't remember that. Though it couldn't have been at the end of the '87 season because Smith played in '98 for us as well.

I do remember Gibbs saying TS was sort of lazy and his head was never really in the game...except once, Super Bowl XXII

He got his head in the game because Doug Williams told him if he didn't get the job done, he would basically kick his ass. lol

I don't see any stats for 98 anywhere. He was toast after 3 years.

He still has the best memory in the history of football.... (well except for Doug Williams)
