Guys like Russ and Art were not ones to toot their own horns. They showed up and played football and let their actions both on and off the field speak for themselves. Irvin was a good player but Art should have gone in long before he did, but of course I am biased.

I think in general the Redskins teams of the 80s just don't get the respect they deserve like the 49ers teams from the same era. My own personal theory is had we beat the Raiders in the Super Bowl, I think the Skins would be considered the undisputed team of the 80s.

Agreed 100%!
