When was the last time the Redskins won in Cincy? How 'bout the ONLY time the ‘Skins won in Cincy?!?
The ’91 Super-Skins got it done at old Riverfront Stadium, the only Washington win in Cincinnati to date, withstanding a fierce Bengals comeback to improve their record to 4-0. With fiery head coach Sam Wyche storming up and down the sidelines (love it!), the Bengals nearly rallied for the upset. But, after a late touchdown by Gerald Riggs (his third of the day), the Bengals were left - as Tony Kornheiser put it - “the best 0-4 team in football”. Riggs’ hattrick carried the day but was Brian Mitchell’s 2nd quarter punt-return touchdown that stole the show.
The Redskins played in Cincinnati just four times in team history, not counting the 2016 London game that technically counted as a Bengals home game played to a 27-27 tie (ugh). As of this posting, Washington holds a 5-5-1 record vs Cincy, 4-1 at home and just this one win in “The Jungle”.
