1986 RetroSkins Highlights: Redskins vs Eagles

  • Let’s go back to 1986 and wrap up the regular season with the Redskins and Eagles from cold, crummy Veteran’s Stadium. The playoff-bound Redskins were 11-4 while the rebuilding Eagles were 5-9-1 under villainous first year head coach Buddy Ryan. For a long while, though, it was hard to figure the Redskins as the winning team in this one. Washington was shaking off the funk of two straight losses that put them out of the NFC East race, as the Eagles popped out to a 14-point first quarter lead. From there the Redskins bumbled and fumbled around before QB Jay Schroeder and the offense regrouped for a suddenly stellar 21-point fourth quarter rally to nip that wily, hairpin-legged Randall Cunningham and his Eagles in front of a dissatisfied Philly crowd (are they ever satisfied?)
    Ricky Sanders (a familiar name wearing an unfamiliar number) had a staller day with Gary Clark nursing an injury on the sidelines. Schroeder’s late-game heroics capped off a Pro Bowl, 4,000+ yard passing season, and got Washington back on the winning track in time for a more than respectable playoff run.
    The honorable Jack Buck and a still-limping Joe Thiesmann on the call from everyone’s favorite cesspool, the Vet. Captured directly from VHS to HD/1080p (who knew you could?!), and unretouched for that genuine '80s feel!

    I listened to this game on an amtrak train from DC to NY. At one point, I was standing between cars to get good reception! A great memory.

    While the aforementioned rebuilding Eagles were 5-9-1 going into this game, they were coming off an upset win at Texas Stadium, eliminating Dallas from the playoffs and officially ending their streak of 20 straight winning seasons

      It’s not a racial slur, if the term is not a slur. It’s a term that expresses a warrior and brave spirit, which the Native Americans were famous for being brave in battle. Similar to The Notre Dame Fightin’ Irish.

      ​@@michaelprunty3104I'm pretty sure the term Redskin didn't become a racial slur until the French started referring to the Native Americans as that (during the French and Indian war) BUT for many years before and after Native Americans themselves referred THEMSELVES as Redskins and still to this day take lots of pride with it.
      It only seems a very small politically driven Natives that "get offended" by it. The ones who are more politically driven than anything. It's sad.
