Mania Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I always hated Emmit Smith of the Cowboys because we never could keep him under 100 yards and I hated Mark Bavaro almost as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixz44 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 i'd go with Emmit. even when he was over-the-hill, he'd still kill us when we'd play dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OVCChairman Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 i remember when we could contain Emmitt for 3 and half quarters, we could be up by 6 and he would turn out an 80 yard touchdown run to beat us, the guy had the skins number, but he has all of my respect, he was a heck of a player and even now broadcasting, he's not that bad! he's about the only Cowboy that has my total respect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Went with others because I most 'feared' Cunningham. Why? He was a guy you could shut down but still lose to because of the 2-3 good plays he'd make. Most of the guys you mentioned either had a good game or not.

For the first 3 quarters he'd have like 18 attempts for 40 yards and no TDs (announcers talking about how Emmitt was shutdown) while at the end of the game he'd have like 25 carries for 120 yards and 2 TDs (announcers talking about how Emmitt had another great game). Emmitt didn't ever break a real long run off of us but it seemed he'd be getting a lot of 15-25 yarders off of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibbsteam Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Barry Sanders was my most feared player.......any play anywear on the field he could go yard.......and he never had a team around him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostic Hog Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 For me, the most feared player was John Edison, High School QB -- he could whip that ball all over the field against my HS team. Darn him, ruining our homecoming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcarey032 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I was praying that LT would get his third drug offense to keep him off the field against the redskins. He was just a terror. Ask Joey T. I would say currently, Donovan McNabb when he is healthy I just saw him do to us what Randall Cunningham used to do to us. Run the ball.

SkinsFTW Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I was praying that LT would get his third drug offense to keep him off the field against the redskins. He was just a terror. Ask Joey T. I would say currently, Donovan McNabb when he is healthy I just saw him do to us what Randall Cunningham used to do to us. Run the ball. L.T. by far. "Experts" credit Parcells with that streak the Giants had against us but it was more the fear Gibbs had for Taylor. He would put a Tackle, a TE and a RB on him and he would still terrorize. Just dealing with trying to stop him made our offense much less potent. If the team was more competitive in the 90's I'd might say Emmitt Smith as well but a lot of those big games by him didn't really matter other than start out their streak of wins against us. L.T was a big part of 2 of our 10-6 teams missing the playoffs and our very very good 1986 team from making it to the Super Bowl after beating the supposedly unstoppable Bears in Chicago. L.T. was too good. We were very fortunate that the 1987 Giants missed the playoffs with Simms out most of the season. BTW, Parcells lost all of his games with the scrubs playing and Gibbs won all of his. Cunningham, Montana, Dent, Singletary, and Dorsett are also worth mentioning. When I was like 8 or 9 years old Dorsett seemed better than Emmitt ever was for some reason, and that Wilbert Montgomery guy sucked too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon_sc Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Cunningham and McNabb (when he would run more). What is it with the Eagles QBs? The late 80s/early 90s were filled with Cunningham-cursing moments and Donovan brought all of that back. How many times would the 'Skins have the perfect defense called and have one of those guys scramble for a big first down? That's probably the most aggravating play -- third down, good coverage, QB runs for the first. I think even Eli managed that last week. Oh, but from that list, Emmitt Smith.

Larry Brown #43 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Remember Joe Morris from the Giants back in the day? We couldn't stop that dude. Emmitt was a pain in the *** too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
