An end of an era. Grew up watching Darrell Green making huge plays for the Redskins. One of my favorite players of all time. No matter what they call themselves, they're always going to be the Washington Redskins to all of us true fans. HTTR!
I’ll never forget this game. I became a Redskins fan, when I was 10 back in 1989. “The Posse” was the primary reason I became a fan. Darrell Green was the second reason because he was the fastest man. He’s one of the most amazing players I’d ever seen. Was only 5’8 175 lbs. and was a great CB and a sound tackler for his size. Played at high level all the way, until he turned 42. He lost a little bit of a step. Not much. Before recently purchasing a Terry McLaurin jersey, Darrell Green jersey was the only Redskins jersey I’d ever owned. A Starter jersey at that. My late mother bought it for me way back in Xmas of 1997. Still in mint condition, too.
Again, apologies for the occasional glitches. Hoping RUclips can clarify why this happens when the video is processed on their end. The RetroSkins library is glitch free!
Speaking of Darrell Green against the Cowboys, a game I’d love to see on RetroSkins: how about the 84 game at Dallas when he flipped momentum with a 2nd half interception return for a touchdown? Outside of the playoff punt return at Chicago, that was probably Green’s greatest moment
Dave Campo said during the week before this game, "If Washington doesn't beat us this week, they'll never beat the Cowboys again." The writing was on the wall. This Dallas team had checked out.
Dave Campo's only loss to Washington as a head coach. Dude went 5-11 in 2000, 2001, and 2002. A 15-33 career record, but he was 5-1 against Washington.
Like the Giants in recent years past, worst record in the NFL for 3-4 season combined but won almost every time vs Washington. Who here pissed off the football gods?!? Someone needs to be burned at the stake.
Any chance you have the 1991 Redskins vs Steelers? Gary Clark’s one handed catch is the best catch I’ve ever seen and I haven’t seen the highlight in years…
Its still crazy that the Redskins lost 10 straight to these Dallas teams. Not the 92-95 Dallas teams that were dynasty, it was the 97-02 mediocre Cowboys they couldn’t beat until this game smh.
Between 97-02 the Skins finished ahead of Dallas in all but one season but couldn’t find a way to beat them. Meanwhile, the 92, 93 and 95 Redskins teams went 4-2 (3-0 at RFK) against Super Bowl winning Cowboys teams. Go figure.
Dave Campo literally went 5-11 in each of his three seasons as Dallas' head coach. That's just 15 wins in three seasons. But 5 of those wins were against Washington.
And crazy thing is....we should've swept them in 1997..but we BLEW a 14-6 lead LATE....WITH the ball...and ended up losing that game in OT. Which was a KEY loss that kept us out the playoffs that season. Smh
I remember watching this game when I was in high school. I don't know if it was more frustrating watching it then or now. lol. I was super happy the Redskins won since I lived in Texas and had to deal with everyone at school being a cowboys fan. It was hard being a Redskins fan, but I miss those times. Commanders suck!
Absolutely gutted by Ian Rapoport's claim Friday that new ownership is not changing the name. I just wanted Dan Snyder's branding gone. I was willing to come back to my first love even without the beloved Redskins name. But instead Josh Harris is either oblivious to what the vast majority of fans want or just doesn't care about fan sentiment. I hope they change their mind. In the meantime I feel like I lost the only thing I had to look forward to.
They can't change the name. The NFL won't allow it. You can't have a team in the most prestigious league in American sports changing their name every year to try and please a broken and battered fanbase. What if the fans hate the next name? At this point the wisest course of action is for the NFL to demand Washington keeps Commanders. I think the sudden removal of Redskins was a mistake, it was a poorly executed reaction to the pressure from a wave of political correctness that was sweeping through the country late that summer. Waves eventually lose momentum, Dan could have rode it out, but he didn't. Let's hope the new owner doesn't repeat that mistake.
The tears that flowed from my eyes, this day…
This channel makes me so happy
Comments like this make RetroSkins so happy.

I remember this game man was I sick from a stomach virus but was happy that Darrell finished his career with a win against Dallas.

@@kingndanorthAs a Washington fan that name has sailed away in the 🌇
I remember watching this game on LIVE TV and hearing Pat Summerall without John Madden as his partner.....just didnt seem right. Smh
Darrell Green's last game and Emmitt Smith's last game as a Cowboy
What a sloppy game....embarrassing on both sides!
Arrington was bad ass he knocked out Troy Aikman gave a headache
It's almost incomprehensible that Summerall is partnered with someone not Madden. I guess Summerall's contract ran a year longer than Madden.
