What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
Just to get our minds away from the tragic week, I'd like to know what you're all-time favorite Redskins moment is? Mine has to be the 35 points that we put up against Denver in the second quarter of Super Bowl 22!

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
Lots of great moments to choose from. However, in the 80s I lo Ived the Redskins and the Browns. And I was especially a fan of Ernest Byner. Broke my heart to see that fumble against the Broncos...
So I was delighted when the Redskins got him, and absolutely thrilled to see him score a TD in SB XXVI. It wasn't as big a play as Grant tipping the ball, or Riggo running for the TD, or 35 points, etc., but I loved it.

Winning our first SB. I grew up during the George Allen days when we got so close, the Pardee years when we weren't so good and then Gibbs delivers!!! I will never forget that feeling!!

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
Being only 19, my favorite moment definitely was the win over Dallas away in the 2nd game of the season in 2005. One of the most magical moments I've ever seen in sports. We had not moved the ball for squat the whole damn game and it looked like that game was over and this team was going nowhere. But out of nowhere brunell finds some miracle arm strength and hooks up with moss twice after he just torches roy williams and i think newman, TWICE! I was upstairs in my room ready to goto sleep and get up for school and when saw them win that game I haven't jumped around like that since Maryland won the national championship in basketball, in fact I think I jumped up more for the skins win. It was insane. Definitely my favorite movement.

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
Well I'm sure recent events prop this one up for me...but I can't remember ever being so just geniunley happy and satisfyed as a Redskins fan as that Taylor fumble return for a touchdown against the Eagles in 2005. I just remember feeling like I was on top of the world.

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
Riggins TD
35 points in the 87 SB or as NFL films refers to it... "The quarter, the second quarter". Watching a receiver take off after a catch and then waiting for Darrell Green to come shooting out of the bottom of my TV screen and knowing he would catch them. (It's not a greatest moment, but fun to watch no less) Gibbs' reaction after the Monday Night Miracle game. |

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
I'll give you 5:
1. Riggo, 70-chip. Greatest play in franchise history. 2. Beating Dallas in the 1982 NFC Championship ("We want Dallas" game) 3. Darrell Green punt return TD to beat the Bears in the playoffs 4. Super Bowl XXII, 2nd quarter. The most perfect quarter of offensive execution in NFL history. 5. Cooley's 3rd TD to put us up 28-0 over Dallas right before halftime in 2005 |

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
Definitely the taylor return against the eagles. I am not saying that because of what happened either. That was the first time i really enjoyed a skins playoff season. During the play i was yelling to my friend, "PLAYOFFS PLAYOFFS PLAYOFFS"
Favorite game was same season against Dallas... but which one did i like better? Can't pick favorites but i guess because i was at the second one, i'll choose the one at home. |

LaVar ending Troy Aikman's career. What a hit baby. What was that, his 6th concussion? That is what defined LaVar as a Redskin. Go LaVar!

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
One of the best moments that I was lucky enough to see in person was the blocked punt and Taylor's return last season. My friends and I were so pissed because it looked like another close loss to dallas and then Vincent made that amazing block, which Taylor scooped like a hawk. Even though we were all the way up in 429 we could see the facemask and we knew good things were going to happen for us.
That was such a great moment.

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
12th's Top Five.
1) NFC championship game. DE Dexter Manley tipped Gary Hogeboom's pass in the air, which DT Darryl Grant caught then high stepped in the end-zone for a ten yard score! Unbelievable. You could hear RFK from Baltimore that day. 1a) 70Chip v. Dolphins. Riggo, baby. I shook the T.V. so hard it turned into a flat screen. 2) Redskin RB Joe Washington leaped over like two guys against L.A. Raiders at RFK for the go ahead TD in a wild and exciting game. Later that year, the Raiders shredded the Redskins in Joe Gibbs' only Super Bowl loss. 3) Moss' TDs over Dallas - take your pick 4) Sean Taylor's dive into the end zone vs. the Eagles. 5) Riggo in a regular season game at Dallas...Riggo busts around the right side for a long touch down. I was going banannnas |

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
My five (favorite moments though maybe not biggest)
1) Super Bowl parade after beating the Dolphins. I was 8 and my father took me and nine of my friends. Never before or since have I felt so part of something bigger. 2) Beating TB in the playoffs in 2005. It gave me hope for the first time in forever (though now it seems a bit cruel). 3) When Riggo showed up in Dallas wearing fatigues (don't remember the year) 4) Second quarter against the Broncos in SB (I had gone outside because I was young, dumb and believed the announcers that it was over. So I missed the first score but saw the rest). 5) The "Scab games" during the strike. We beat the Cowboys with no NFL players while they had several including "Too Tall" Jones.

Re: What is your All-time favorite Redskins moment!!
1. Art Monk breaking the all time receptions record
2. Darrell Green leaping over that dude when he returned that punt for a TD against the Bears. 3. When the Skins beat Atlanta in the 91 playoffs, and the fans started throwing the yellow seat cushions onto the field. 4. Santana's two TD's in Dallas in 05 5. CP's 60+ yard TD run on his first carry as a Skin 6. Thumping Dallas in the last game ever at RFK |
