DGreenistheBest Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 My other favorite Redskins memory isn't a play so much as what happened afterwords - in the '91 playoffs when al lthe yellow seat cushions rained from RFK Stadium - the stadium was rocking, it was loud, cushions flew all over the field in excitment, and Jack Kent Cooke was in the owners box just beaming. Awsomw, awsome, awsome. I remember seeing that one live. I was in complete awe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmet959 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 one of my favorite plays i saw in person was Westbrook's OT td catch to beat the Cards at the JKC opener yeah it ended up being a bad season and it was against a crap team (actually didnt phoenix make the playoffs that year?) but JKC stadium started out on the right note, i remember it like yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinkymark67 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I always liked the play where #28 ran down that ram early in his career, and the return against the bears i think You're thinking of when he ran down Eric Dickerson in the 1986 wild card game vs the Rams and the return was against the Bears in the 1987 playoffs.

dinkymark67 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 That one and a really obscure play that I barely remember. Green picked off a pass and was running to score the TD. One of our own dlinemen basically picked him and carried him the last 2-3 yards to make sure he got in. That was the 36-30 OT victory vs Detroit in 1995. Green won it with that INT.

cuchip703 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 No particular order 1. Riggins SB Run 2. D Greens punt return against Chicago 3. Moss catches against Dallas 4. Darryl Grant's pick 6 in NFC Championship game 5. D Green running down T Dorsett...the look on Dorsett's face afterward 6. Art Monk's Record Breaking catch (not a great play itself...but great for Monk) 7. Clark Scoring in OT vs Minnesota (got to see the play at halftime last week) 8 Green breaking up pass at Goal line in playoffs 9 Houston's play 10 Blocked FG vs Dallas last year 11. Most Rypien bombs in 1991 were great plays to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooley4President Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Probably Santana's second bomb against Dallas in 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ct5hsc Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 That one and a really obscure play that I barely remember. Green picked off a pass and was running to score the TD. One of our own dlinemen basically picked him and carried him the last 2-3 yards to make sure he got in. That was against Detroit in DC so the win streak was on the line and the game had gone to OT, Detroit had the ball inside their own 5 and Green picks him off, a D Lineman picks him up and practically carries/throws him in the endzone, i remember it so well because i was stuck in michigan at the time and was one of the few Skins games i got to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor ToughLove Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 1) "Riggo's run" 2) "Dexter sack" (taking out Danny White) 3) "Love me two times, baby" (Brunell to Moss twice in final 5 minutes) 4) "The 0:00 finish" (I was at that game) Gibbs coached them all. Coincident? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjfootballer Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 The Riggins play is #1. If I had another one it would be when Theismann took a safety against Dallass on MNF to win 9-5. One of the most tough, hard fought games in the rivalry. I think it was 1978 or 1977. Can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngestson Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Dexter Manley knocking out Danny White in the 1982 NFC title game at RFK. The place was rocking, the game was close, and Dexter put White about three feet in to the turf while Tony Dorsett and Shawn Springs dad stood their with their mouths hanging open wondering how a defensive lineman could have gotten in the backfield so fast. A thing of beauty, and it's hard to describe just how big a win that was for the franchise. It was the game that put the Skins at the top of the league where they would remain for a decade.

Woofer Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I have to go with riggo's I left 70 chip. There were a lot of other great plays, but this play is the only one that still gives me chills everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Young'n...... Way better plays than this. For me it's the Riggo TD run in SB XVII or the 5 touchdowns in the 2nd QTR in SB XXII.... Or maybe the hurdle play by DG against Chicago.... my history of redskins glory includes norv, spurrier, marty. plz let me live :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskin4ever Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Darrell Green's punt return for aTD in the 87 playoffs. That still gives me chills when I replay it in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinsFanInTX Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Riggo's TD run in SB versus Dolphins. I still get goose bumps when I see that play. Darrell Green's return for a TD in th NFC Championship game is 2nd all time in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Riggo's SB run. Not only was it great, its filled with nostalgia for me. The 1982 team was the greatest team of my early fandom and pretty much marked its end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W1N_SKINS Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 well in my time as a skins fans either Taylor returning the fumble on eagles, moss monday night, or lavar returning the td against panthers....game i realized i was a skins fan i was 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softballs Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Darryl Grant (defensive tackle) scoring in the 82 NFC Championship game was the greatest play before Riggo's run. Riggo's run was absolutely my favorite, bar none. No doubt - I was in the 7th grade at the time. My brother and I almost made my mom miss a flight because we wouldn't leave the house. We were going to watch the 82 NFC Championship -- to top it off it was starting to snow outside - I'm gettng chills thinking about it. Riggos run was great, but for me it was the Grant play because 1) it sent us to the SB and 2) it was against Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
