Yeah. It's pretty sad if you are a Cowboys diehard like me. Going on 27 years since we even got to an NFC Championship. Hopefully Trump will smash Biden or whoever runs. I need 1 more victory before God calls me home
@@Hugging_Cactus The Redskins will ALWAYS BE THE REDSKINS! Not this SJW CRAP Commanders? WTF? Before anyone cries about the Indians being offended, I AM A CHIPPEWA INDIAN! I am also a Green Bay Packers fan, but I wore my Washington Redskins Starter Jacket with PRIDE!! There are far more ISSUES to tackle than changing every Indian name in sports. What EXACTLY does this accomplish? Are the/us Indians supposed to bow in gratefulness for coming to our rescue? You had it right cNazKool_it the Redskins are a CLASSIC TEAM that deserves to STAY THE REDSKINS!
@@Soc1alBK it was after...and it happened in 1979 when Harvey Martin hit Mark Moseley in the knee which sparked the can of whoop ass they received in the '82 nfc championship game
A lot of people hated Dan Dierdorf. His "nickname" was DierDork. But Al Michaels was one of the best announcer to ever be on MNF! This team was decent. Far better than some. I wasn't a Dierdorf fan but I respected his opinion and he wasn't bad, just was kind of eh.
The very young Cowboys lost this game but you could already tell they were on the way to great things. The Redskins were absolutely loaded in 1991 and finished the season at 14-2.
@Dallas Cowboys Highlight: I have to agree with you, even though Dallas lost this was game that showed me that Dallas would be good. I was excited about them. Washington was a great team winning the Super Bowl that year.
Joe Gibb's Redskin's were always prepared and ready to play. Teams that had to face then knew they were going to have a fight on their hands right up until the whistle. Just the fact that Gibbs is the only head coach to WIN 3 Super Bowls with 3 different quarterbacks speaks volumes on how good that team was. Hopefully Rivera can bring us back to respectability again. HTTR'S!
3 different RB's too.... 5 different starting WRs too. Brown, Garret, Clark, Sanders, and Monk. Won every replacement game even against a Cowboys team that was mostly first teamers. Won every Super Bowl in a strike shortened season. One of the best coaches of all time.
Except for the '83 Super Bowl vs the Raiders. We came out flat and got blown out. I'm not saying it was Gibbs fault, it just happened. That one still bothers me all these yrs later.
@@Colstonewall the Redskins went to Party and Play Golf, The Raiders went to Tampa to Play Football. It was embarrassing. The Regular season game they played that same year was INCREDIBLE, and I was There. In that game, Jim Plunket threw a 99 yard Touchdown to Cliff Branch.
Same... this Redskins team was easily a top 3 all time team... '85 Bears and '72 Dolphins are the only others I can put in that conversation..... the Lions messed up my dream match-up of a Redskin/Cowboy grudge match in the NFC championship game this '91 season.
@C. Cobb I have to say, this Dallas squad reminded me a little of the late 60s/ early 70s Cowboys. You knew they were coming up, it wasn't IF, it was WHEN.
Got nothing but respect for the '91 Skins, one of the best teams ever assembled. But you could see on Gibbs and the players faces they knew what was coming.
The Gold standard of all Redskins team. 91 skins always prepared, disciplined and they would excute their play calls at the highest level. The Posse, the Hogs, Joe Gibbs. Nuff said. Thank you. Great team HTTR.
@@madrecka With all due respect, I consider the 1987 Redskins squad to be the franchise's best, as they're the ONLY Redskins team to win the Super Bowl AND sweep the Cowboys along the way (including the legendary Replacements Game); the '82 and '91 squads both suffered an inexcusable HOME LOSS to the damn dirty Cowpies.
@@christianorr1059 Yes the Cowboys in 91 did split with Washington but that 91 Washington team was very dominant in the Postseason more than the 82 & 87 teams.
@@madrecka I hear ya, but that split with the Cowboys sticks in my craw and leaves me with an incomplete feeling about the ‘91 season, while the sweep of 1987 just more feels like a total success to me. Just my personal opinion.
Wow! That horrific clock management by Jimmy Johnson was shocking. I don't remember this at all. Just shows you Jimmy wasn't always perfect in the beginning.
Loved this rivalry as a kid growing up in the 80s..big Randy white..j.jeffcoat..ed too tall Jones..tony dorsett..d.white at QB..skins had Dexter (I sucked at playing the run ) Manley..C.Mann..the Hogs..Art Monk and Gary Clark .R.Sanders..Darrel Green the speed demon..dude could outrun rookies when he was 40...but dam these games were awesome to watch....loved it..as much as watching my own team..the Vikes..watched the 87 playoff game against the 49ers when we went there and Anthony Carter put on show and we smashed them...only to lose on the last play of the game the next week againat the Redskins when Darren Nelson dropped a pass at the goalie and we would have won..still hurts..dam...my 2 favorite WRs as a kid..A.Monk and Irving Fryar..fav RB..sweetness of course..fav Defensive player..LT baby..best name in football..Tampa Bay. Kicker..Donald Igwebueke..classic
Thanks for sharing Richard. All I remember about this game was it being really hard fought, chip lohmiller being a hero and it was hot as Hell in that stadium. There was also a rare sack of Rypien. I believe Rypien was only sacked 9 times all regular season! I was in 5th grade when this game was going on and it's cool to see this old stuff. Hail to the Redskins!
This Cowboys team was missing a pass rusher and help in the secondary. That would come the following year and they would go on to win three Super Bowls in four years. The master mind Hall of Famer Jimmy Johnson.
As a 49er fan who would grow to hate this Dallas team with the intensity of a thousand burning suns back in the day, I have to say that watching them in hindsight is a thing of beauty. If Jimmy Johnson had come along ten years earlier the dynasty of the 80s might very well have been the Cowboys.
I remember this game as I watched it while working on my Ph.D at Baylor. Emmitt rushed for 112 yards in the first quarter, but then got sick at his stomach because he had drank a sports drink that nauseated him at sat out the rest of the game.
I'm 63 years old, been watching pro football since the late 60s and in all that time there is very little that can compare to the Cowboys, Redskins(that was the name then) rivalry except maybe the Cowboys vs Steelers. In fact Cowboys vs 49ers, or Cowboys vs Packers as long as the Cowboys were involved you knew it was going to be a good one!! Coach Landry created a team that was as good as any other, Jimmy Johnson came along and drafted Aikman, Emmet Smith, Michel Irving and so many more.
@@shanetrimble9265 Brady vs Manning. Those were some good games but that one doesn't grab me as much as Rams/Seahawks.. I think every AFC team that played Brady & Pats was intense, Miami more than Indy. imo
Yes, it's definitely amazing. The Rams got the same deal for Dickerson but they blew all their picks. Johnson was a great coach with an intimate knowledge of the college players he recruited. Greatest team of all time!!!
As a Die Hard Washington Redskins fan I miss this kind of football big shoulder pads and hard hitting unlike the NFL today where it's become more like flag football.
The end of the redskin dynasty at 57 years old a lifetime redskin fan this was the best redskin team ever assembled lucky enough to see them in the glory years this was the last time the Redskins were revelant always judged the skins if they could beat Dallas in Dallas they were a fine tuned machine this year but you could see the freight train coming in Dallas but we were the best team easily in football this Year unfortunately 30 years later I'm still waiting for at least a NFC championship game appearance point being I'm glad to see them in there greatness
It's crazy to think that Art Monk, Mark Rypen and Earnest Byers were still playing as recently as '91. In my mind, those guys played back before there was color tv. Even more crazy, I will never understand how no one could ever cover Jay Novacek. He always managed to get open somehow.
1993 Madden Football on the Sega Genesis. The year after the Cowboys won the Super Bowl. Playing as the Cowboys against the CPU that swing pass to Emmitt Smith would dominate. You could basically run that play every time and pick up 10-20 yards and often break it for a TD. Lots of that in this game and throughout the Cowboys early 90's run. The Redskins were on top of their game this night though. Hate em but much respect to em.
As seen in the station IDs, this was taken from the broadcast of the game on KIVI in the Boise area. The MacGyver episode that aired before this game was a repeat. It is not known whether this repeat was shown west of the Central Time Zone after the game, since reruns tend to be expendable when it comes to resolving schedule conflicts with sports events (as an example, the first hour of Sunday primetime on Fox during football season only contains repeats west of the Central Time Zone, as when games end in the Mountain Time Zone, it is only in the 5 PM hour, and 4 PM in the Pacific Time Zone; primetime on Sunday in the MTZ doesn't begin until 6 PM, the same as Central, and PTZ 7 PM, the same as Eastern).
55 minutes in and it's a shootout! These teams used to battle and battle! I loved the Redskins, and as a Packers fan, a die hard Packers fan I hated the Cowboys. Not the players so much, but they beat us in the NFC Championship game or the playoffs repeatedly. Oh it sucked! However mad respect HAS to go to Emmitt Smith. He was a MACHINE! Granted he had a insane Offensive line but his talent was elite! Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton. Three of the BEST running backs EVER to play football! It was a joy to watch them. Unless they played Green Bay, then they'd pound us for 100-250 yards. Still, you have to respect the talent!
I remember the clock management at the end - it really seemed like Johnson conceded the game too early. Holding onto all 3 timeouts on defense, no sense of urgency on the last possession, no onside kick after the TD. And he really did not look the least bit concerned about it on the sideline. Always wondered what he was thinking.
Was this Dallas team still good enough to win a Super Bowl in 1991? HELL NO! But this game was an indication that the young team they assembled over the past few years showed promise and would be a contender soon.
Yep, none of the Super Bowl-winning Redskin and Cowboy squads of the 1990s were able to pull off a season sweep of their rival; hell, the '95 Cowpies Super Bowl team actually got SWEPT by a 6-10 Skins team!
That was scary at the end with Irvin holding his neck (considering how his career ended). Glad he was able to walk away from the game without being permanently injured.
How did they get footage of the Oilers game which took place in the middle of this particular season??? This was the 2nd week and the Oilers game was weeks later. If my memory serves me correctly that was Troy's first appearance against the Houston Oilers. Weird
The Redskins were just a better team that year and starting off with all those wins. The Cowboys eventually were trending up, but that's the second time they met during the season where they everything they had and needed to win since they were 6-5.
When the Cowboys-Washington rivalry began it was characterized as a battle for NFL fans in the South. While DC is still considered Southern by the US Census Bureau, the area is more characteristically Northeastern nowadays.
This game is the epitome of Old Lion vs new Lion. Washington was at peak here, had perhaps the most complete roster of Joe Gibbs entire career. It took everything they had to come back and win. Theyd go on to win the superbowl BUT I think it was this game that really gave Gibbs the idea that maybe it was time to leave the sport. I think it was obvious to Him that Dallas was going to go on to dominate the Division for the next 5-7 years and he'd be playing catch-up. Dallas fielded Three very young Future Hall of Famers and they gave Washington the fight of their lives.
I'm not sure what year, I want to say 1983 a Monday night game Denver verses green Bay or Washington in the snow if u have it would u please put it on?
I remember watching the final minute of this game ... as a young hopeful Cowboys fan having suffered through the previous 5 years of disaster, and Jones-led embarrassment ... thinking ... Landry would have managed the clock way better than Jimmy ... did Jimmy's brain get lost in the primetime lights? ... yes it did .... what the HELL JimmY?? Call a goddam time out. WHAT THE HELL! C''mon Jimmy wake the hell up! The lack of urgency made me think he was reverse-Pete-Rosing this game.
Before the start of the 91 season, jack Kent Cooke went to Gibbs and praised Jimmy Johnson ; saying hes doing It the "right" way. And Gibbs was keeping too many old guys around. 😳 Gibbs surely didnt take too kindly to that.
Cooke was right, while the Redskins did end up winning the SB that season, they haven't had a whiff of 1 in over 30 years since. The Cowboys would end up winning 3 of the next 4 SB's and could have been 4 in a row if not for a horrible first 8 minutes of the NFC Championship game in SF.
I remember watching this game in San Diego, CA at Mission Beach when I was in the service going to Radioman 7-C school. Good game. Still like to watch these old games and the refs were alot better on their calls with Ed Hochuli and commentators Deirdorff, Gifford and Michaels a good crew. Everything in sports and in life in general seemed was better 30 years ago. Wow! How times have changed for the worse I think. Trump 2024 🇺🇸👍Jimbo Mexican American, former US Navy radioman petty officer 86-96.
Not the biggest star in this game 2 be sure , but I forgot about Brad Edwards S for WaSHINgton. 3 great years ( all 3 with WSH ) classic overachieving white DB. On another note Emmit Smith was fast , my most recent memories are of late DAL yrs and AZ too - he was pretty awesome at this time.
‘Mark Rypien has been injury-prone and inconsistent and when I asked Joe Gibbs what he had to do to get better he said he has to stay healthy and he has to be more consistent.’ Brilliantly insightful analysis.
Mr. Turneround if he doesn’t you can buy on amazon 12 games + all post season games from 85 season for bears. They were so dominate they got their own season collection. Just make sure you burn the game vs Dallas lol.
Emmitt Smith was the best Running back I ever saw play. I guess Earl Campbell was better for a season or 2, and Barry Sanders had a better highlight reel but Emmitt dominated many games for many seasons better than any Running Back I have ever seen. Walter Payton is a close second to Smith.
These games here wearing nostalgic I don't know what's going on in today's NFL the players have such a blank look on their face no tenacity get paid go home they don't seem to care about winning games or winning traditions anymore bringing politics to the field the cowboys and Redskins will always be one of the Great old school NFL rivalries can't reverse time so sad.
Yep I'm not a fan of either teams, but used to like the watching the skins play. My sisters was a Redskins fan...odd being from Northern Cali is wierd for her to route for them and she has for alot of years. Yes, the players and feeling of the game is different.....splash in society and politics and it's not the same for sure.
@@jeremiahrose4681 Thanks man I really appreciate it's not the same no more I'm not even a cowboy fan like I used to be but you all keep it going football is a tradition here in America that should never die.
Wow, that was horrible clock management on JJs part at the end of the game. The lack of calling timeout with 1:40 left, then with :52, then instead of kicking the fg and saving enough time to have an onside kick and possible recovery, they ate up the clock just to get 6 and no onside kick. Maybe they just needed to hit the under
How Does The NFL tell its stories without the Redskins. How do the Cowboys tell their story? The Eagles and Giants? -Bring Back the Name and Logo. Do it In 2024🎉

I would say more than most people would admit that the Troy Aikman cowboys were not heads and shoulders better than the Washington Redskins. Even with everything said, and done and closed in the history books, Washington felt to be just as talented as the Cowboys, and were a player to away from being right there in their place.
