'91 Redskins vs. '07 Patriots

Sweet, nice work Matty. Seems like 91 Skins were a formidable foe. Only if I remembered those days...

That was the last GREAT year for the skins. I hope GW and the defense does some homework, and that Al opens the playbook a little. We need to score at least 28 points to have a chance in this game. I would look at the last few Patriot losses over the past 2 years to figure out the best game plan for them.

i really think the skins have a shot. too bad the offensive line isn't healthy. i can guarantee what you will be seeing on Sunday. ball control, or at least an attempt at it. Gibbs will try to keep the patriots offense off the field. but right now, our defense is easily the best the patriots have seen this season

dude... no i mean really man.... please stop...

Dude, have some faith.. Obviously u haven't watch lot of football games, there always will be some surprise upset games..

I am not saying that Redskins will upset Patriots this sun for sure.. I am saying that there is a chance of that happening, especially with our defense.. Yes, Tom Brady always manage to pick defense apart.. But I just have good feelings about our defense..

And beside, see what Al Saunders said in the very ending of this article..

I think the Posse is comparable to the Pats WR's but Byner was more consistent than anyone on the Pats. As for Ryp, his long ball is one of the nicest I have ever seen. If he could have ever developed a better short game he'd have had a really nice career. Wilbur Marshall is one of the most underrated coverage LB's of all-time.
Watch the America's Game on the 91 Skins. It is great.
Great line on the show from Mann about playing the Lions in the playoffs: "I couldn't believe that they were starting a Rookie against me. In the playoffs?"
Kornheiser's headline the next day after the Lions game: Three plays and this one was finis.
But still, not nearly as good as the Pats.

Too bad we can't get the 91 skins to play this week! ;)

I think the 91 skins had a better run game, and the current pats have the better pass game. The D's are comparable, though I really loved that 91 D. If they played head to head, it would be an awesome battle.

Someone run it on Madden and report.

Something that isn't said enough about that 91 team is just how well coached they were & how much they maximized their talent at a time when a no. of players were near the end of their prime.

Gibbs' teams were never the most talented compared to other great super bowl teams, but he always got the most out of what he had.

I wish our 91 team was taking the field sunday...maybe we could make some calls?

isnt this a off season thread.....I mean, the Pats, havent won the SuperBowl yet
