Re: Redskins Mt. Rushmore
 

Im going to go with Monk, Darrell Green, Pat Fischer, and Mr. Jack Kent Cooke, God rest his soul.
Maybe the boy king should take a page out of Mr. Cooke's playbook. Let real football men take care of the team.

Jack Kent Cooke is the legend no doubt, but, and I don't know, cuz I really only know the 70s(mid-late) and beyond, but I doubt JKC just bought the team and then went hands off, he probably had a similar learning curve, albeit in a different era and different salaries, but every owner learns, and Dan Snyder is absolutely learning.

Joe Gibbs, Joe Jacoby (has everyone forgotten the hogs), Art Monk, Darrell Green

Cooke hired Beathard. Snyder his yes-man, Cerrato. The difference is Super Bowls.

Very cool post...somehow I've missed it until now. Well I guess I'll be the first to name this guy:

Joe Theismann - When I was growing up, he was my hero...because he was the QB of the Washington Redskins....there was no better job in the world or more important job as far as I was concerned.

Joe Gibbs - The coach of the most important team in the world to me...although it would be years before I really realized how special he really was.

Darrell Green - Absolutely my favorite player of all times...for obvious reasons...one of the few players in the league that truly got how special it was to be a Washington Redskin and NFL player, and it used it to help other people...even if he was a little boastful in the process :)

Santana Moss - My favorite modern day player....I can't even tell you why, but I love this guy...maybe it's because of the Monday Night Cowboy killer game, or maybe it's his little First Down shimmy he does...but I just love to watch this guy.

It's hard to limit this list to four....I could easily make it 30.

[quote=dblanch66;535485]Fun post. When I think "Redskin", the first number and figure that pops into my head no doubt is:

1. John Riggins. - Super bowl 17 run was just TOO unforgettable!

2. Darrell Green. - 20 years baby! All class and can still out run most players in the NFL

3. Joe Gibbs. - In his prime, no one was better. The best half time adjustments I ever saw.

4. Gary Clark. - I know, I know...how can I go with Clark over Arthur you ask? Well, he was just so much damn fun to watch play! He was little, scrappy and [B]NEVER dropped a ball[/B] over the middle. #84 over the middle against the VaGiants on Monday Nite...Sooo friggin sweet.

Emphasis on [B]NEVER[/B]. And man could Gary Clark take a hit. I hold them all up to him.
