Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

I say favorite and not best and stuff like that because that is "opinion" and I want to know what you feel. My 5 Redskins may or may not be the greatest but for whatever reason I just "Like" them the best and to me they stand for what I think of when I think Redskins.

My 5 Favoriite Redskins of all Time

Sammy Baugh [GREATEST Redskin of all time bar none...lol]
Turk Edwards [Player/Coach]
Sonny J. [On and off field Great Redskin]
Art Monk [SOON to be HOF'er]
Monty Coleman [16 year Skin]


Those are my 5 favorite players...who are yours?

peace

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

In alphabetical order:

Earnest Byner (became a fan back in his days with the Browns)
Darrell Green (gave us some of the greatest Redskins moments ever
Ken Houston (never saw him play really, but that stop against the Cowboys at the 1-yard line is amazing enough to put him in my top five)
John Riggins (He's going to go all the way, unless Blackwood can catch him, and he can't!)
Joe Washington (just fun to watch)

I think Shawn Springs and Marcus Washington may crack the top 5 soon enough

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

I just got a signed Earnest Byner Redskins card yesterday in a batch and if you PM me yer address I'll mail it to you free. He signed his name and the #44 so he must have signed it for a Cleveland fan using his old Browns number. Plus the card is a "Traded from Cleveland to Washington 4/23/89" Card.

...and if coaches count...Joe Gibbs

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

Art Monk is my number one of all time.
D. Green
I hate to say him because I dont know if he will live up to being a great Redskin, but I think I've been a bigger fan of Patrick Ramsey than I have ever been of another Skin' while he was on the team, so I'll say Ramsey.
Brian Mitchell. I hated his guts when he was with the Eagles/Giants, but coming back here for retirment, and thinking about it, I really loved the guy.
Ricky Friggin Sanders. "The Posse" was so cool. I used to have this Posse Poster and I dont know where it went, but I would pay about 100 dollars if I could get it back.

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

Gmanc, I'm a new Redkins fan (only been into football about 2-3 years) and I also have Ramsey as my favorite. It killed me when the Brunell experiment began and held on as long as it did cause I was ready for it to be Ramseys year, I'm really anticipating next season. Other then that I'd have to go with Riggins (cause even in the few videos I've seen hes dang fun to watch) Springs, Washington, and Jansen. This may change once I pick up more videos of old school Skins. Also I used to love the Smoot, I'd have to say he's my favorite non Skins player now.

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

In no particular order:

Riggins
Green
Monk
Jacoby
Gibbs

It's really hard to just name 5, but if I had to pick 5 that define the Washington Redskins to me, these guys above would be it.

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

Riggins
Theismann
Alvin Walton
Mark Murphy

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

Sonny Jurgenson - my father went to college with him, so I was raised in the faith.

Mark Rypien - In a game during the miracle season on 1991, he was informed he was about to break Jurgenson's single game yardage record. He took himself out. That's knowing your place.

Darrell Green - He is a man of such character, that in his (hopefully distant) obituary, you should go through many, many paragraphs before you read the words "NFL's fastest man".

Art Monk - There are people who aren't sure if Art should [URL=http://www.ipetitions.com/campaigns/Monk_To_Hall]be in the Hall of Fame.[/URL] I can think of 940 reasons.

Dave Butz - He used to break his helmets during the course of his gameplay. [U]That[/U] is hitting.

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

even though i've been watching football for a few years now, and i know all about the history but i wasn't really a part of it, so i'd have to say these guys.
1. joe gibbs - he's the man, man.
2. ramsey - i would like to see him become a high caliber quarterback
3. arrington - he's gonna be locked up for us for the rest of his career, and i wouldn't want it any other way.
4. clinton portis - in my eyes, he's really proven himself. he's stepping up off the field and becoming a team leader, and he's already proved he can do it on the field.
5. darrell green - i watched him in the waning moments of his career, and the guy deserves to be a hall of famer.

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

Tre Johnson. Others are obvious. :oink:

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins

Re: Your 5 All-Time "Favorite" Redskins
 

That last list was a joke for all of you who didn't get it. Here's my actual list:

Charles Mann (the dude mauled running backs and had quarterbacks for supper regularly)
Art Monk (great hands, good rout running, deceptive speed; class act on and off the field)
Joe Jacoby (big and tough; this guy simply leveled people)
Alvin Walton (180 lb safety who could hit like a truck)
and of course, Joe Gibbs (you've gotta like the guy who takes your team to three Super Bowl victories; awesome coach and even better person)

I LOVE Dexter too man and would have him in my top 10. I fully understand a guys struggle in life and he he writing some very positive chapters these days. Plus he was a CRUSHER in his day and you can't give the "influence" credit for all of that. He is a BAD MAN on the field and Good man off the field.
