Sometimes, losing a game can turn out to be a fantastic thing in the long run. Such was the case in a 1990 NFL Thanksgiving game between the Washington Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys, as the loss forced head coach Joe Gibbs to completely re-evaluate his offensive philosophy, led Washington go on a resurgence at the end of the season, and led Washington to carry that momentum over into 1991 with a win at Super Bowl XXVI. This is the story behind that game

Joe Gibbs (head coach) - Спорт
"Anytime you can get Madden and Summerall to call a game this late in the season, it's gonna be a big one"... Madden and Summerall always called the Thanksgiving game on CBS
IKR....there was nothing worse than having to watch the lions on Thanksgiving before Barry Sanders. Even with madden summerall calling it. One word for you: turducken....
I was a diehard Cowboys fan until my hometown got the Jags.I did not like the Redskins, but I truly liked Gibbs. The guy is first class.
This cowboys fan agree with you about Gibbs
Same. Gibbs was a class guy, even to us Cowboy fans.
Great coach. I hated the Redskins, but to me he’s one of the greatest coaches ever. To this day, he’s the only coach to win three Super Bowls with three different starting quarterbacks. People just don’t appreciate how hard that is.
11:31 "While Gibbs would never be able to replicate that success again..." Actually, he did, just in a different sport.
#Nascarforlife
This was NOT the worst loss of Joe Gibbs career. The worst loss of Joe Gibbs career was easily the November 5 1989 (lost 13-3) game against the Dallas Cowboys that saved the Cowboys from going 0-16 that season.
That was the first thing that came to mind.
No the worst loss happened on January 22, 1984 we all know what game that was!
His worst loss was in Super Bowl 18. Raiders 38, Redskins 9.
I was happy for Ernest Byner when he became a Redskin and ended up getting a ring.
Me too!
@@jmad627 It really couldn't have happened to a nicer guy I wish sports had more stories like this and less like Tom "old goat"brady.
Yeah, it was horrible Cleveland blamed Byner in them not getting the Super Bowl.
It was truly bittersweet.. yes, he deserved the glory... just tough that it wasn't in Cleveland.
@@mrmoose6619 That made up for it though.
Joe Gibbs is an NFL legend. Even his younger siblings Barry, Maurice, Spencer of the Bee Gees were music legends in their own right. What a family!!!
Go sleep with a 16-year old, WOODY Allen!
Gibbs won those 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QB's. Joe Theismann, Doug Williams, and Rypien.
I of course didn't like the Redskins and Joe Gibbs, but I respected him as he was an excellent coach and worked well with what he had, .675% - 10 years with Washington is nothing to sneeze at, I never thought of Joe Gibbs as underrated!
And won 3 Super Bowls with 3 different QB's. Thats pretty darn impressive.
@@jmill3147 yeah it is!
@@p.j.4738 Two of whom were average at best.
"of course"?? Why would that be obvious? Nobody knows who you are.
@@jmill3147 the only good one was Theismann but his career ended quite abruptly. Rypien, to his credit, was incredible that season. Doug Williams also played the game of his life in the super bowl and one of the best performances all-time.
I enjoyed watching Art Monk play, He's in the HOF, well deserved, but very underrated.
An odd repeat of 1981 where Gibbs went 0-5 trying to run an Air Coryell style offense and then 8-3 handing Riggins the rock. Followed that season with their first Superbowl. History rhymes.
So funny you mention this... on Riggins "A Football Life" he said halfway thru the 82' season, he went in Gibbs office drunk and demanded he "get the rock or (he's) outta here" 🤣🤣🤣
And of course the rest is as you probably already know, a SB season with the diesel getting the MVP nod
@George Lipscomb I know. My family moved from DC to San Diego in 78 but I was just old enough to be a Redskins fan for life. HTTR!
@George Lipscomb - and, in fairness, Gibbs’ best teams could always chuck it deep in addition to running the ball.
Joe Gibbs people may forget about him is because he wasn’t a yeller and a holler like 👍 parcells or ditka
Great video. Gibbs became the first coach to win three Super Bowls with three different starting running backs (Riggins, T. Smith, Byner). Bill Belichick has since achieved this feat as well.
Lifetime Cowboys fan here. I will confess that I was a huge fan of John Riggins. He looked like a super hero running the ball in that Redskins uniform. The thick stripes on his helmet and pants with that Redskins helmet logo appealed to me. Also the fact he would carry people on the way to the end zone.
One of the most underrated coaches in NFL history for sure. Won three Superbowls with not only three different QBs, but also with different running backs. And he coached in really two different eras. The league was totally different when he came back in 2004. And while his second stint in DC obviously wasn't as successful as his first, two playoff trips in four years isn't bad. Especially considering the tragic 2007 season. Plus usually coaches getting seconds stints with a franchise they've coached before just end absolutely terribly. Marion Campbell (Falcons), Art Shell (Raiders), Chuck Knox (Rams), and currently Jon Gruden (Raiders) just to name a few. Though the jury is still out on Gruden, his first couple years back haven't exactly been successful.
And the only NFL coach the has a Superbowl ring and a NASCAR championship ring as an owner when Bobby Labonte and Tony Stewart won in the early 2000's right before he came back.
Lou Saban had two stints with the Bills; first in the 60s, then a second term in the 70s. Lou won two AFL titles in 64 and 65 and got the Bills into the playoffs in the 70s; but when he quit a second time, the Bills collapsed.
You should do a video about how the peanut butter jelly time guy died. I'd LOVE to watch more of your endorsement ad's and also UA-cam ad's. That would be so fun!!!
I'm a die-hard Dallas cowboy fan since 1981 I didn't like the Redskins can't stand them but I got Mass respect for Joe Gibbs
They will ALWAYS be the Redskins! I'm 1/2 Indian & PROUD teams take Indian nicknames & logos (mascots & etc)
I guess some people just don't like Indians, it's sad
If only some of the people have the same positive mindset as yours when it comes to that subject.
Times have changed.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
these renamings are an attempt to destroy any culture…
Awesome
As a lifelong Browns fan I love seeing Earnest Byner highlights. It was the beginning of the end for the tough Browns teams of the mid to late 1980’s when they traded him away. Byner, Kosar and center Mike Baab were the collective heart of those teams. They traded away Baab, too. Ugh. Oh well. I’ve always kinda liked the Redskins anyway.
I remember this really well--As always, great job telling the story behind this, your analyses are fantastic, and it's such a pleasure as a Patreon member to start my day with your videos
Great analysis as usual by JG9. The real story should be a year later Skins/Cowboys November 1991; I’ll never forget this. The Cowboys had lost 3 straight to go 6-5 and the Skins were 11-0. Jimmy Johnson went for it 3 times on 4th downs, converting twice. There was an iconic Hail Mary play from Aikman to Alvin Harper to end the half with Dallas up 14-7. They won 24-21 but lost Aikman for the season. They ran the table including games vs playoff bound Atlanta and in Philly vs one of the great defenses in NFL history. Then they beat the Bears in the playoffs in Chicago. 6 in a row, 4 of those games vs teams winning 10 or more games, with the difficulty of schedule the Washington game began the greatest late season stretch in NFL history. I remembering Dallas being my SB favorite for 1992
And didn't Aikman throw a bomb on the first play of the game? Jimmy knew they were the inferior team and couldn't win the game with conventional decision making, had to take chances, and he took plenty!
I remember this game well. Michael Irvin had Darrell green on him the whole game. He would body green for every reception. Green couldn’t stop him. Irvin had like 8-9 3rd down conversion on Darrell green.
I'll miss those old Redskins - Cowboys games, that was quite possibly the best most intense rivalry in pro football history. But thanks to cancel culture, the Redskins and their 88 years of tradition and honor and respect, are now just part of the past.
It wasn't cancel culture that changed this, it was free agency.
A great demonstration of how great of a coach Gibbs was. Gibbs saw something wasn't working and adjusted accordingly, and it set up a late season playoff rally and then one of the most dominant and THE most underrated team in NFL history in the 91 Redskins (seriously this team was so dominant and yet I feel like I'm the only one that ranks it as a top 10 Super Bowl winning team)
Unfortunately, in 1992, the identical team barely made the Playoffs, and, collapsed by 1993.
@@matthewdaley746 then came the 1999 season -- with a certain hothead GM in the Skins' front office
@@Official_Kings_Versus Yeah, that proved the darkest, with, no indication, yet, of the dawn.

I drink every time he says we’ll need more context. I don’t drink alcohol anymore but I drink an entire pepsi bottle when he does
Good thing both QBs had a passer rating higher than 39.6. 😆
THIS game shows why Gibbs is one of the Greatest Coaches, because he could learn from this game.
I perceive this as a moral of life itself. We all have losses/errors mistakes in this life. I remember my 9th grade English Teacher once said. "Don't be afraid to make mistakes and when you do make big ones cuz the bigger the mistake the bigger the lesson learned!! The whole point of mistakes is to learn from them. You don't learn from your victories in this life. You learn from your losses/mistakes!!
For Joe Gibbs the next season, it all fell in place. The Giants stumbled without Bill Parcells, the 49ers "stumbled" without Joe Montana even though they went 10-6. The Eagles lost Randall Cunningham for the season so essentially the NFC East was there's for the taking. They played their best football I ever saw. 3 shutouts at home on defense especially when it came to the Lions 45-0 and 42-10 in the NFC championship game. They went 11-0 before Dallas beat them and they had the perfect running formula. Using Gerald Riggs in short goal line situations. Using Ernest Byner as their main back and Ricky Ervins as the backup and speed. Mark Rypien just threw bombs to the Posse and again on defense they were just lights out.
In 1992, very little went right, and, 1993, began a time of prolonged drought, for, them.
@@matthewdaley746 in 1992 he went to Nascar and owned a team called Joe Gibbs racing
@@MinaMongoose55 Denny Hamlin, isn't victorious.
Mo Lewis taking Drew Bledsoe out to usher in the Tom Brady era was what REALLY changed everything.
For Washington in 1990? Probably not. But good job with the comment completely unrelated to the video's content!
The thing I didn’t like about Gibbs as a Cowboy fan was he was hard to hate. I really liked him. The Redskins need a guy like George Allen, that guy was easy to not like.
That's how I feel about Dak Prescott. He's such a good guy, and he deserves a ring. It'd be good for football.
This wasn’t the first time Gibbs did this. In the 1986 NFC Championship game, the Redskins ran the ball 16 times the entire game, and only 1 time in the entire second half, even though the winds were howling at Giant stadium that afternoon. He threw Jay Schroeder to the wolves against a Giants pass rush that was dominating the Hogs, and beating him to death.
He beat the Bears, and, pretty much knew the Giants would, totally, crush him.
Schroeder had a strong arm, the winds wouldn't effect his passes that much. But, he clearly wasn't ready to play vs such a strong defense, and in 86, the Giants defense was better than the Bears, or as big of a game.
@Lawomenshoops Plus, their defense, actually, had an offense at their disposal.
The Redskins passing attack in 1991 led the NFL and yards per attempt at a huge chunk of 8.1 yards per attempt.
26th in attempts fifth in yardage. There was a few games that I’ve watched where they were not running the ball well in 1991 and the passing game made the difference. But they were running team first if they could, but don’t underestimate their ability to throw the football that season. It was a big chunk passing attack
As a Cowboys fan who grew up in a redskin family, this game is one that stands out for sure!
I remember hearing about Darrell Green and how he was gonna run down Emmitt, which he did, but Emmitt just juked him out of his shoes, Darrell fell flat on his face as Emmitt trotted into the end zone for the clinching TD! 🤣🤣
I’d love to see a video of the drama of Cowboys quarterback Clint Longley.
I enjoyed the video but I’d have to argue that the greatest loss of Joe Gibbs career was the December 2, 2007 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The game came immediately after Sean Taylor’s death.
The game began with a tribute to Sean on field with only 10 players lined up for the first play. And ended with a 36 yard field goal after Coach Gibbs called back to back timeouts and got an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for it and reducing the distance from 51.
He won the next four games to make the playoffs and retired again after the wild card loss.
This is the correct answer. Any other answer is misinformed.
When this rivalry was great I always said you could throw records out the window. You never knew what was going to happen in games like this. They truly hated each other.
Bonus points if you know the old man in the white hat, talking to Joe in almost every clip.
I remember this game Thanksgiving 1990 this could have been the game the Cowboys started turning things around
Game was blacked out in Dallas as it was not a sellout crown, even for Thanksgiving. However, because of NFL rules, Dallas fans got to see the final quarter because the local TV station could show the game after 6pm. That local station earned a lot of fans that day as we got to see Emmitt put the game away live.
If we didn’t have bill walshe or george seafort I’d of prayed for Gibbs. PURE LEGEND one of the greatest
the Body Bag game 2wks earlier than this game is the worst loss of Gibbs career.
The Redskins could run even when you didn't want them too or stacked the box. They also had 3 top tier WR and could throw deep incredibly well. This allowed them to take leads then control the clock wear the other team down rest their defense and finish games
Thank goodness that loss happened because not using the rushing attack when the game at the Cowboys was close throughout made no sense whatsoever.
For the Cowboys this was the game that got them to a that started their 3 game winning streak and got them to 7-7. All they had to do was win one game against either the Eagles or the Falcons to make the playoffs. Well AIkman got hurt against the Eagles and the backup Babe Lauffenberg was terrible and didn't do crap. They ended up going up 7-9. So the next year Jimmy Johnson got Steve Beuerlein as a backup because Babe was crap. So again the next year in 1991 the Cowboys were facing the Redskins. They were 6-5 going up against the 11-0 Redskins. The Cowboys threw everything they had and Aikman again got hurt. Up 14-7, Steve Beuerlein came in for the injured Aikman and got a touchdown pass and a field goal to beat the Redskins 24-21. That set off the 5 game winning streak where they finally beat the Eagles to make it to the playoffs and had a 11-5 regular season record. Then they beat the Bears in the wildcard. The next year was the start of the Dallas dynasty. Everything has a starting point and for the Cowboys this game set off where they got better each year.
At the mark, there’s a redskins player on the sideline with the jersey number 80 and his name plate says Howard. Demond Howard (wore #80) didn’t arrive until 1992. And according to pro football reference in 1990 the player with the jersey number 80 was WR Joe Johnson. This is kind of eerie.

As a Dolphin fan who saw Joe Gibbs out coach the great Don Shula in Super Bowl 17 I had respect for Gibbs ever since and him winning three Super Bowl's with three different QB's which is amazing. Don Shula took Johnny Unitas, Earl Morrall, Bob Griese, David Woodley and Dan Marino to NFL title games which is incredible and let not forget Bill Parcells taking Phil Simms, Jeff Hostetler and Drew Bledsoe to Super Bowls and unless Bill Belicheck can go to a Super Bowl without Tom Brady he will join great coaches like Chuck Noll and Vince Lombardi and Bill Walsh who had only one QB to take them to a multiple NFL title games.
It just shows that you can learn from losing.
"Can" learn? You damn well better learn.
I don’t understand how a team at 6-4 with 6 games left would virtually guaranteed make the playoffs with a 7-4 record. Makes it seem like a 7-9 or 8-8 record would still make it highly likely to make playoffs......I’d have to see the rest of the NFC for context but I can’t see how this could be the case
If my memory serves me correctly, I believe the Saints won the last NFC wild-card spot in 1990 with an 8-8 record.
DYK that Joe Gibbs won titles in 2 leagues? NFL & NASCAR!
The Bo Jackson/Deion Sanders of team management.
More accurately, Joe Gibbs is Hall of famer in both leagues.
Some losses end up being the biggest victories in the end.
While an informative video, I actually used to write for Riggo's Rag so I'm going to have to respectfully disagree on this one. Gibbs greatest loss would have be the 1981 loss to the eventual Super Bowl champion 49ers to drop him to 0-5. Gibbs, coming over from the Air Coryell offense and wanting to throw the ball all over the field like in San Diego, realized he needed to change his philosophy and utilize the running game (Riggins) and 'the Hogs' and dominate ball control while playing from ahead if he was going to last in the NFL. The following week 6 game against the Bears was the game that actually changed his career. Against the Bears, Joe Washington and Riggins had 44 rushing attempts between the two for over 200 yards. That 49ers loss was what ultimately created 'Redskins football' under Gibbs. He went from 0-5 to 8-8 to finish the season, then went 8-1 the next year and won his first Super Bowl. He even talks about his 0-5 start in an interview with Graham Bensinger.
ua-cam.com/video/gwllaPfSRyI/v-deo.html
In 1990, Gibbs had already won two Super Bowls, played in a third, and went to the '86 NFC Championship game. Gibbs routinely won in December as his teams almost always started to peak at the right time, so a tough division loss in 1990 likely wouldn't completely alter his philosophy. Also FWIW, the 1990 'Body Bag' game against the Eagles was the game that really set the '91 team up for their Super Bowl. Charles Mann has even stated that himself.
HTTR. Forever.
Yeah, no, despite, winning, the, SB, the 1987 team clearly, was, not, peaking at the right time, hence him praying on the sideline, he, was, a drop away, from getting fired, 1983 still lingered.
@@matthewdaley746 Are you referring to Gibbs in the '87 NFC Championship where he's praying for a goal line stand to go to the Super Bowl against a tough Vikings team that pulled off one of the greatest playoff upsets against a 13-2 49ers juggernaut just a week prior?
Yea, the '87 team clearly wasn't peaking when the went to the playoffs....they only went 4-1 from November 29 to December 26--only losing a tough road game by 2 to the Dolphins on a last minute Marino TD pass. Maybe we have different definitions of peaking. Gibbs work that season was extraordinary since '87 was a strike shortened season and the Redskins were the only team who didn't have a regular cross over so he didn't get a single starter back until after the Dallas game in the middle of October.
As a said before I used to write for Riggo's Rag. Check out my piece on the 1991 team that was direct result of the 1990 team referred to in this video.
riggosrag.com/2019/02/02/redskins-1991-super-bowl/
As someone who used to write historical pieces about this team before the name change, I'd seriously love to read some of your work on the Redskins.
If you really believe a loss ten years into what was a 12 year stint his first time in Washington had more impact on him and his philosophy than an ass whoopin' handed to him by future Hall of Famer Bill Walsh five games early into his career did to drop him to 0-5, then I don't know what to tell you. Watch the first ten minutes of the 1982 America's Game Redskins and let me know what Joe Theismann says about the 1981 team. You really think THIS Cowboys game was the one that created 'Redskins football'? JG9 has good content. Dude simply picked the wrong Gibbs game to call his 'greatest loss'.
@@kylehundley6 Believe what you wish, Our Nation's Capital, wanted his head on a platter, when repeating didn't happen, JKC obliges them if they lost there.
Superbowl XVIII is his worst loss.
@@sirmang9032 There's inestimably no question.
I can point to another game between these two that changed everything. Dallas beat Washington 35-34 in the final game of the 1979 season, scoring 14 unanswered after trailing by 13 late, to win the NFC East at 11-5, and eliminating the Redskins at 10-6. The Redskins were coached by former player from the George Allen era, Jack Pardee, who would go on to finish 6-10 in 1980, only to be fired and replaced by San Diego Chargers offensive coordinator Joe Gibbs.
John Riggins scored the final points for Washington in that game, then retired, and proclaimed to be ‘bored, broke, and back’ after being talked out of retirement by Coach Gibbs in 1981.
If Washington hangs on and wins that game, I wonder if a coaching change even occurs, and if it doesn’t, does Washington go on to have the kind of success they enjoyed under Gibbs in the 80’s and early ‘90’s. This loss to Dallas helped fuel one more title run for the Redskins, but I think the ‘79 loss to Dallas changed everything.
I don't know about this hot take, Gibbs was the coach when Washington lost 38-9 in Superbowl XVIII. This ream recovered and made the playoffs in 1990 along with a win as well.
The Superbowl loss to the Raiders was worse. The Redskins had a high powered offense and Washington was favored to win.
Darrin Nelson's drop saved Joe Gibbs' job, I have truly no doubt.
@@tonyb4481 Many wanted Joe Gibbs' head, without, "The, Drop," they'd, totally, get it.
That Superbowl also sports the worst playcall in Superbowl history. Still don't know what the Redskins were thinking with 12 seconds left in the half and attempting to throw a screen pass down near their own goalline. Jack Squirek and the Raiders thanked them for this stupidity though.
@Sir Mang Joe Gibbs arrogant, totally.
The 49 ers didn't go to Super Bowl XXI that was the Giants
After looking at some stats from nfl. Joe jibbs was one of the best coaches ever
One of the games Mark Rypien missed that year was the Monday Night game in Philadelphia known as the “Body Bag Game”.
and yet, Washington weathered the injuries and humiliation of that game, came back to Philadelphia, and whipped the Eagles in the playoffs when it really mattered. Gibbs' tenure is full of gut checks like this one. It's impossible to think about that "Body Bag Game" without remembering that Buddy Ryan's team couldn't make it stick against the better coached 'Skins.
Buddy Ryan, was, great at beating his chest, and, terrible at coaching.
@@jackprather3471 Odd in 1986, they beat the Bears, but, lost three times to the Giants.
The Giants, more than any team, were the kryptonite to that era 'Skins team...and yet Gibbs outlasted Parcells, winning another Super Bowl after Bill's last, taking 3 instead of just 2.
@@jackprather3471 Yeah, but, from a legacy perspective, that late stint would prove fatal.
I mean, is this really Joe Gibbs' greatest loss considering there have been times he has blown a million dollars in a single weekend in the other sport he is a hall of famer in?
Gibbs was a top ten all time coach
Best head coach of all time
Gibbs was old school in the vein of Tom Landry.
Anyone who doesn't think that Joe Gibbs is one of the great coaches in NFL history, knows jack about NFL history. Gibbs won three Super Bowls with three offensive philsophies; ground and pound with Riggins, aerial circus with Doug Williams and the Fun Bunch, then the balanced offense with Rypien.
mark ripyen o rypien fue la causa... tuvo a clark solo un par de veces y no pudo poner el pase.......
LIVE NFL TRIVIA EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT on TWITCH. Anyway, in this game Joe Gibbs would have been WAY BETTER OFF just SPIKING the BALL into the ground on EVERY single OFFENSIVE play!!!!!
This isn't even close to Gibbs greatest loss as a HC. Superbowl XVIII. The Raiders absolutely hammered the Redskins 38-9. This game also had the worst offensive playcall in Superbowl history. The screen pass from Washington's 7 with 12 seconds left in the half that Theismann floated up in the air and Jack Squirek was able to just walk into the endzone with. The game was still somewhat competitive until that play.
Somebody get Howie Roseman and Jeffrey Lurie on the phone and show them this video as they've completely allowed the abandonedment of the run since LeSean McCoy left SMH
They beat the Patriots, I don't think anybody cares what they do from this point on.

Dude, the Cowboys '89 win over Washington and their '90 win over Washington were not "the exact same thing." The 10pt differential is the only thing those two games had in common. The '89 win was a pure fluke. That was a make-shift Cowboys roster that had a revolving door of new and old players almost every week. Steve Walsh and Paul Palmer were the starting QB & RB respectively. Michael Irvin was out for the year with a near-career ending injury. This game your covering from Thanksgiving of '90 showcased the infancy of The Triplets and the 90s Dynasty. This was the 2nd win of a four game winning streak that put in the Cowboys in control of their own destiny for a Wild Card spot, just one year after going 1-15. Thanks to Jerome Brown and those filthy Eagles those playoff hopes all but ended the following week at the Vet. But that's another story. *Sorry for the long comment.
Watching that win i knew Dallas was growing up. And did they ever
He’s a great leader, he could have been a billionaire in the business world.
His worst loss was superbowl 18
Joe Gibbs was a great coach. How high you rank him depends on the other guys ...
I'd suggest (alphabetically) Belichick, Paul Brown, Halas, Landry, Lombardi, Shula occupy the top 6 spots
Grant/Madden/Noll in the 70s and Gibbs/Parcells/Walsh in the 80s for slots 6-12
So Gibbs is maybe top 10 but not top 5.
And I'm sure there's one or two others with a decent claim to being up there.
Losing to the Raiders, and, the disastrous return, will keep him out of, The, Top Five.
Dude... may I offer some constructive criticism? Your content is fantastic! Very thorough and well researched. Love the focus on history as well. The delivery is the issue. It seems way too scripted or like you are trying to sound like someone else. Like you are emulating the old 30- for 30 or something. I am not sure and I can;t place my finger on it... but it is annoying and the pace and monotone delivery makes it hard to listen to more than one of these in a row. I think you would be better served to keep the research and present all of the great info... just present it like you are watching a game in a bar with a buddy. Add some personality. Some quips maybe. You aren't on the nightly news presenting about a school bus crash... You sound very proffesional, don't get me wrong.... but do you remember when sportscenter was at it's peak? Kenny Mayne was HILARIOUS and they shifted from a stuffy news type format to a loose and relaxed buddy tone. This is BARELY one step above that robot voice that reads reddit post for youtube videos. Just an idea man... keep up the intresting vids
In other words: "Dude, I love everything about your channel but you!"... I personally find it amusing (and endearing) that even though this is a YT channel he cuts the videos into segments as if it were being edited for TV. When he transitions between the segments (where commercials would go in a TV broadcast) he even reintroduces the topic and reminds the viewer where they are in the story. No idea if he does it on purpose or if it's because he has done TV work, took media production classes, or just learned by watching a lot of sports docs... and never considered why those are framed the way they are. The reason doesn't matter, I notice it every time and laugh. Someone else might be annoyed by it, I love it. I suspect that the vocal stuff that bothers you delights others.
Ernest byner, yet another great player only remembered for one bad play
Meanwhile without him, the Browns are blown out in that 1987 AFC Championship game. Byner put the offense on his back in that game.
Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni are you watching this?
How incongruous to spend minutes commenting/complaining about Gibbs’ play selection of all pass/no run by showing nothing but running plays. Seriously!?
It seems sometimes the NFL sways games in one teams favor…
It being thanksgiving on national television, the NFL may have wanted Cowboys to win…
HOF Coach Joe Gibbs dumps his game plan, come on 😂
Not sure which back this is at 7:17 , but I have never seen an offensive line care so little about a defensive player intimidating a teammate after a play. Obviously I have no context and don't know what was being said, but it makes the hogs look like cowardly swine.
This video was well put together, but the story was blase. This was no epiphany or pivotal game in a franchise's history. It was simply one of those things that happen during the course of a season.
anyway
HTTR!!
Yeah, I feel that Joe Gibbs was an all-time great coach; I'm not a fan of Washington Team (didn't mind their defunct nickname though), but I liked Gibbs & a lot of their players ("The Posse", Charles Mann, Darrell Green, Doug Williams, Earnest Byner, Jeff Bostic, Gerald Riggs, Mark Rypien, Wilber Marshall, and Kurt Gouveia are some of my favorites, but there's many more).
Ha ha, what Gibbs said about his inconsistent 1990 team was something to the effect that he didn't know what kind of team would show up, "Elmer and the boys or a good football team". Funny Gibbs. The team more than made up for that spotty season with that great 1991 team.
@steven milstead Yeah, and the thing is that the team was predicted to advance to the Super Bowl (sportswriters like Dr. Z predicted the Bills---who were also predicted for the Super Bowl that year---to win though, but I can understand that, since the previous Super Bowl involving them was as close as a game can get), and the team took all that in stride and went about their business. An impressive team, and I feel that, if they aren't the best Super Bowl winner ever, then they're in the top 3 somewhere.
@gluserty Yet, the magic, was, gone, one year, later, and, somehow, they, totally, fell off of a cliff, two years, later.
@@matthewdaley746 The team was one mostly of the 1980s era, so by 1993 their core aged out (Joe Gibbs did right by retiring when he did), and the subsequent rebuilding has been rough indeed.
@@gluserty Unfortunately, he came back.
@@matthewdaley746 Well, I do think that the 2005 Washington team was their best since '91, and, without a few sloppy losses, they may've been a Super bowl dark house that season. I'm glad Gibbs came back, as at least the team did SOMETHING, even if it wasn't quite the good old days (I feel that the Air Coryell offshoot that Gibbs came up with---3 receivers, but max protection for the QB, offense a smashmouth/quick strike hybrid---can always work)
Is this Real American Politics?
To Scott conner down below: Go get a life.
WFT coaching legend
what a joke. ONE LOSS didnt define anything. Unless you lived through that era as a REDSKINS fan you know nothing. BYNER went to Gibbs and begged him to go back to Redskins football. Also, your voice sounbds like a 12 year old girls voice. Slow down and speak with a deeper tone
It is amazing that Joe Gibbs won three Super Bowls with three quarterbacks that were just above average. Joe Theismann, Doug Williams and Mark Rypien.
