pjfootballer Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Just wondering. I was thinking about the Denver game when rookie Rod Smith beat Darrell Green in Denver on a last second TD to win the game. I can't recall many games that the Redskins won on a last second TD or FG. The only one that I can think of is the 1982 game at home against the NY Giants, when Mosely hit the FG in the snow to win the game 23-21 AND set an NFL record for most FG's in a row with 23. Can anyone else remember us winning on a last second play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peele Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Well not technically last second, but at Dallas last year 2 TD's in the final 3 minutes. It felt just as good as a last second victory. :dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Recetnly, hard to think of any off the top of my head that we were trailing in right before the last second FG or TD. Last year's game against Seattle was tied in regulation and Novak won it in OT. In '03 John Hall broke a tie with the game-winning FG at the end against the Jets. In '00 Mike Husted kicked game-winning FGs to break ties against Tampa and Philly. I also remember Chip Lohmiller beating the Vikes on a last-second FG 15-13 (1992?).

pjfootballer Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 That's some good games. I really couldn't think of any off the top of my head. 30 years worth of games, but you'd think I'd have a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirtyfive2seven Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 How about the home game against the vikings when the skins were losing badly, tied the score and went into overtime. Gary Clark caught a simple hitch route, busted up the side lines and 50 some yards later the ballgame was over. Amazing. I get chills thinking about it. Dexter manley even scored a TD on a high shotgon snap that went over the QB's head. I <3 that game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 of course one would have to count the 41-38 victory over Detroit where Jeff Rutledge came in and brought the team all the way back from 3-4 tds down. to see a guy that hadn't really thrown a ball in the NFL for 4-5 years go in and be that productive on the spot was among the most surprising things I have seen in burgundy and gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 He may be a name not to spoken too much around here at a time we could forget, but there was the catch that Westbrook made of a pass by Gus against Arizona. I'll be leaving now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, how could I forget that one. He had like 380 yards and 4 TD passes. We were down 38-14 heading into the 4th and he put up 24 points in the final quarter to send it to OT.

Seabee1973 Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 redskins last superbowl season chip lohmiller made a 50+ yard field goal as time run out pretty much to give us the victory if i remeber correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddogCT Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 OT games that stick out for me: 9/12/82 vs Eagles 37-34 In overtime, Monk caught one pass for 27 yards to set the Redskins up at the Philly 42. Three plays later, it was Theismann to Monk again, and Herman Edwards failed in a desperate attempt to knock it down. Monk spun around and rolled down to the nine. Gibbs immediately called for Moseley and his 26-yarder ended it with 4:47 gone in the extra period. 11/3/1991 vs Oilers 16-13 Darrell Green picked off Warren Moon in OT and then Chip hit the chip for the win!!! Last second wins: 10/2/83 vs Raiders 37-35 Theismann hits Joe Washington from the six yard line to win an "up and down" battle against Plunkett and company with only 43 seconds left in the game. 10/31/83 vs Chargers (MNF) 27-24 After Theismann drove the team 72 yards, Moseley hit the game winning, 37 yard, field goal with only four seconds left on the clock. :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Fontes all of a sudden decided not to utilize Barry Sanders and have the clock work in his favor and it cost him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scruffylookin Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 If you mean a Redskins score to win the game with no time left (not even for a squib KO) in regulation and not to just force OT, you've mentioned the only one. At least since 1982, the Redskins have scored a walkoff TD/FG in regulation (ala Elway to Smith in 95) only once and that was the Mark Moseley record setting/playoff clinching kick in the 82 Giants game.

stwasm Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 I actually attended a game at the old Pontiac Superdome back in 90 where we trailed by 17 points going into the fourth quarter, Barry Sanders racked up 200 rushing yards against us, yet, by the grace of God, we came back, forced overtime and won the game 41-38. To this day, I STILL can't believe we won that game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally couldn't hold it. Dad took me, get into the portal and boom Clark is crossing the goal line at our end of the field. Visitors side AND Band side (love my man dancing to HTTR after a td. 30 yard line last row lower deck on the isle. Great seats. To bad I wasn't in one. That bathroom visit haunts me to this day. Never go to the bathroom in OT. By the way we go shoved in the corner at the new stadium.

Hambone26 Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 What about the game against Dallas - I guess it was the '92 or '93 season. I don't remember if it was Gibbs' last year or year of the Pettibone, but it was Dallas week and the Cowboys fumbled in their own endzone, the Redskins picked the ball at the bottom of the pile and won the game. I was in attendance but was only 11 or 12 at the time, so I can't remember if it was in the closing seconds or not. Talk about RFK rockin'.
