Mark Rypien and the 10-6 Redskins travel to Philly to take on Randall Cunningham and the 10-6 Eagles in the first (and somehow, only) playoff meeting between these historic rivals.
AH yes, the Game that got Buddy fired. I remember watching this game in a Desert Storm 3k tent city in a UAE tent city, and bet a good part of others Redskins would win it. WHEN Byner scored that last TD, I raised my arms and " cha ching". SOME airman in the back went " OH now, he did it again! " Made $ 350 off of others who weren't familiar how good Skins were that season. IF it wasn't for 49ers, they would have been in Super Bowl.
Bills fan here. This is a bitter-sweet postseason. Bills were the top seed in the AFC, ran right through, mauled the Raiders to get to the SB. But then that heartbreaking finish in the SB. Then, following year, we get crushed in the SB by this Redskins team.
I'm a Redskins fan whose dad and older brother went to Minneapolis to see that Super Bowl. That being said, it broke my heart you guys could never quite get the big one. Except for the 3rd one of those four Super bowls, I always rooted for you. What a bunch of Hall of Fame talent on that team! Absolutely AFC dominance for four straight years. The bonus prize about your team? Seeing my beloved Maryland Terrapins quarterback, Frank Reich, leading you guys to that stunning come back playoff victory over the Houston Oilers just as he did over the Miami Hurricanes in his college days when they were number one with Jimmy Johnson at helm. PS---since the social justice warriors succeeded in their tyranny of FREE SPEECH by BANNING the name Redskins and that college at Foggy Bottom called George Washington (changing their name from the Colonials because that would be "WAYCIST" or something)... I wonder if they'll ban the MD Terps name TOO for being offensive to turtles or something?
This popped up in my feed. I clicked a random spot in the game and the first 3 plays I see Jacoby moving Reggie White wherever he wants to.... like he did most DEs.. please get this man in the hall!!!!
Shit even Russ Grimm got in the hall of fame and he didn't even start practically in the 91 season where the Redskins played their last Super Bowl. Joe was always in those games playing and starting these playoff games and all 4 Joe Gibbs Super Bowls.
Somehow Grimm barely got in. Have no idea why Jacoby is not in. Grimm may have been a little better, but Jacoby was great longer and probably more known. The most famous offensive line of all time barely gets one guy in the Hall of Fame. Crazy.
Gary Clark of the Washington Redskins conducted at least 3 football camps at Native American reservations during his career. He wanted to know if they thought the Redskins name was racist. What he saw was Native Americans wearing Redskins gear and saying that they were proud to be a Redskin fan and the 5% that weren’t Redskins fans were Cowboys fans and that’s why they didn’t like the name.
Actually, I've always said that I have three favorite WFT games in my 60+ years of following them, and none of them are Super Bowl games. One is the game against the Eagles posted above. The second game is the playoff game against the Bears at the end of the 1986 season. I always thought the Bears under Mike Ditka and, especially, Jim McMahon, were a cocky bunch. During their Super Bowl season of 1985, they hosted the Skins relatively early in the season. The Skins' regular punter (can't recall who) was hurt early in the game, so Joe Theismann, who punted at Notre Dame, did the duties. On one punt, he kicked it straight up into a stiff wind, and the punt traveled 1-2 yards, after which the Bears, who were in a close game at the time, took off and won easily. After the game, Jim McMahon was asked if he thought the turning point in the game was the Theismann punt. Behind his ever-present shades (in a locker room!), he said, "I don't comment on guys who punt only one yard." McMahon was hurt during the 1986 season, and Doug Flutie did a respectable job in backup. In the playoff game in Chicago; however, the Skins dominated the Bears in a 27-13 win which was not as close at the score indicated. After the game, Ditka threw Flutie under the bus, saying that he thought the Bears would have won with McMahon under center. The third game is the following year's playoff game, again in Chicago, and McMahon played the entire game. The Skins spotted the Bears a two-TD lead, then came roaring back and won on a TD on a punt return by Darrell Green. Ditka had nothing to say.
Darrell Green was underrated despite being in the HOF. He wasn't flashy like Deion so he didn't get the media sensation, but I'd take DG over Deion any day.
Ill take Deion. Deion actually won the Defensive Player of the Year by the CB, which was unheard of back in the day. Deion's impact was like no other, and QB's were literally afraid to throw to his side.
The first Wild Card Playoff to be played on a Saturday (this was the season that the league expanded the postseason to a 12-team field as opposed to a 10-team field.)
Drew Zuhosky I think you mean first to have two games. In 1985 The Jets played in WC weekend on Saturday and The Giants played in one the following day. They both shared a stadium so the games were a day apart. Jets complained because they had the shorter week.
I remember rooting for Philly and seeing them go in the tank, then Miami getting stymied by KC much of the game before Marino engineered his last great playoff performance in leading them back.
I was at this game..it was also the first game I ever went to...13 yrs old. Sec 539 row 4. The Eagles had so many chances to put this game away early..couldnt get it done. When the refs overturned that Byner fumble..you felt the energy go right outta that place. Ive never heard so many F bombs in such a short period of time. This video does not do the crowd justice with just how loud they were when the Ben Smith ran that fumble back for the TD. I remember two Eagles fans fighting each other on one of the ramps after the game.
Most sports fans (excluding you, me and a handful of others) are belligerent, pugnacious immature weasels who get easily annoyed when their team loses and gets rowdy when they win.
7:10 Jeff Fisher, the youngest Defensive Coordinator in the league. This would be his last game coaching the Eagles along with Buddy Ryan. Jeff would replace Buddy as D Coach in Houston in 1994 and get promoted to Head Coach a year later.
People miss that but it’s true. Take the Bears of that era. They were a talented team and Ditka was a good coach. But Walsh, Gibbs, and Parcells were great coaches. And every coach Ditka lost to in the playoffs is now in the Hall of Fame.
@@ccjjpp1966 they were loaded with Talent on the defense, but they also choked in big games and in key situations. They weren't even close to a Super Bowl. they had no offensive line they had no running game, they had above-average wide receivers they should have never got rid of Chris Carter that was a big mistake. and Randall Cunningham was a choke artist in big games. But Your right, in the end it comes down to very good coaching and the Eagles had none of that with Buddy Ryan and Rich Kotex.
Between The Eagles and Houston Oilers I cannot decide what team wasted more talent. I’ll go with Houston since they actually had better offensive personnel
Oilers for sure. Eagles offense was in gerneral garbage although they had there moments,you just never knew what tesm was gonna show up.....Defense is another story°° Birds were the best consistently through that 5 year period
INJUSTICE SYSTEM Warren Moon’s Oilers were never in an AFC title game. They basically dominated The Buffalo Bills & Denver Broncos in back to back years in the playoffs and lost both games

One of my all time favorite Skins games. Ended Buddy Ryan's coaching career. It also exposed Cunningham as being vastly over-rated at the time. He continously shows happy feet while in the pocket to the point that Ryan actually pulls him for Mcmahon. Can't think of a playoff game where Gibbs did not have his team prepared to play.

Buddy Ryan had no respect whatsoever for offense. In fact, he outright hated Offense and it cost the Eagles. The Eagles “Offense” was basically Randall Cunningham winging it and improvising.
sad too because they had talent at the skill positions. Jackson, Byers, barnett, williams, sherman, quick, Carter etc provided more than enough firepower during that time to make a serious run at the Super Bowl.
This was a Great Game, after the Bodybag Game. I'm Born & Raised in Philadelphia, PA & I've Hated the Philadelphia Eagles🦅🦅🦅 since I really started watching Football every week in 1976. I've Never been an Eagles🦅🦅Fan. It became even Worse after the 1990 Body Bag Game. Yes I understand that Players get Hurt but Under Buddy Ryan as the Philadelphia Head Coach, he Made a Decision to Intentionally injured Players. Yes Washington lost 9 Players during that Body Bag Games as it was Called do to Buddy Ryan telling his Players to Intentionally Hurt another Players. That was Disgusting & Vile. How You Could Be a Fan of a Coach/Team that Wanted to End another Players Career. The Philadelphia Eagles🦅🦅🦅 cry foul whenever they lose. It doesn't matter how bad they played it's some excuse etc
The Byner play that was ruled a fumble on the field and a touchdown for the Eagles was the last time that an instant replay review has gone the Redskins' way.
As a general principle, if your team has "Washington" in its name, you should always assume that the league has allowed the other teams' fans to masquerade as officials.
This is my favorite Redskins game (non Super Bowl games) ever! After the Body Bag game on MNF it was soooo satisfying beating the hated Eagles in the playoffs AT the Vet. HTTR4EVER
This was payback for the"bodybag game". Once again proof that paybacks are a b**ch.😂 Buddy Ryan was great as a defensive coordinator, but a horrible head coach.
while the venue and the network were the same as the Body Bag Game, the announcers were not - Frank and Al and Dan were in Miami preparing to call Chiefs-Dolphins, the first of four times in the 1990s they would call those teams playing in Miami
Do you have Eagles @ Cincinnati 1994, Dallas @ Cincinnati 1994, Patriots-Bengals 1994, Cowboys-Giants 1996 where the Boys lost 20-6, Cleveland-New England playoffs,
Believe it or not, Kotite is the last Eagles coach to beat the Saints in the playoffs (and we all know the Birds struggled against New Orleans in the playoffs)
Ah yes, the game that got my paid at my tent city in the UAE in Desert Storm. I remember Byner running in the end zone, and me imitating the ref and raising my arms signaling touchdown and yelling "Cha Ching!" at 3 am in the morning. Ow man, I took that whole camp with the Redskins that year.
I live in Arizona which has a big population of native Americans. I grew up in Springfield Virginia. Been here 20 years. Wore my Redskins shirt every weekend and if those people were offended, they sure would have told me because they like to drink their booze like a fish drinks water. I'd be walking to my local sports bar with satellite TV to watch my Redskins game, they smile and toast a drink with me in a Redskins shirt every time. This is a fabricated crisis by the Far Left
This just came up on my phone by mistake. To avoud total agony i fast forward the game to the last 5 minutes so i could not relive it again all the way.
Eagles in 1990 were always talking tough but couldn't back it up. Basically a .500 team all season. They were 7-6 with 3 games left, beat 3 weak teams to get in as a wildcard, then lost this game. Bragged all week about the "body bags" game on Monday when they beat the Redskins. Talked how good they were when the beat the Giants in week 11. But they had lost to the Giants in the first game and then to Washington in week 5. They had good players, a good defense. But a lousy HC in Ryan and talked a good game but couldn't deliver.
2:20:00 "So Washington advances. They will play either Chicago or New Orleans". That was the wild card matchup the next day. There was no way Washington could play either team in the Divisional Round. Washington would go to New York or San Fran the next week. Washington would end up playing the 49ers next.
I love seeing seeing philly fans go nuts jumping up and down at the ben smith fumble (which was overturned). These were real football fans when seats were affordable.

I'm Born & Raised in Philadelphia, PA & I've Hated the Philadelphia Eagles🦅🦅🦅 since I really started watching Football every week in 1976. I've Never been an Eagles🦅🦅Fan. It became even Worse after the 1990 Body Bag Game. Yes I understand that Players get Hurt but Under Buddy Ryan as the Philadelphia Head Coach, he Made a Decision to Intentionally injured Players. Yes Washington lost 9 Players during that Body Bag Games as it was Called do to Buddy Ryan telling his Players to Intentionally Hurt another Players. That was Disgusting & Vile. How You Could Be a Fan of a Coach/Team that Wanted to End another Players Career. The Philadelphia Eagles🦅🦅🦅 cry foul whenever they lose. It doesn't matter how bad they played it's some excuse etc
The Byner play that was ruled a fumble on the field and a touchdown for the Eagles was the last time that an instant replay review has gone the Redskins' way.
As a general principle, if your team has "Washington" in its name, you should always assume that the league has allowed the other teams' fans to masquerade as officials.
1st non super bowl NFL postseason game on ABC
This is my favorite Redskins game (non Super Bowl games) ever! After the Body Bag game on MNF it was soooo satisfying beating the hated Eagles in the playoffs AT the Vet. HTTR4EVER
This was payback for the"bodybag game". Once again proof that paybacks are a b**ch.😂 Buddy Ryan was great as a defensive coordinator, but a horrible head coach.
Still the Eagles best Head Coach between Vermeil and 2000.
This is known among redskins fans as the “Buddy Bag Game” as he was fired shortly after.
He never understood the importance of a stout offensive line. The 1995 Cardinals’ offensive line might’ve been one of the worst in NFL history.
Eagles had a mediocre offensive line buddy never got that position solidified and it in part cost him his job.
Also cost him his job in Arizona. The 1995 Cardinals fielded one of the worst offensive lines in NFL history.
I agree. I love me some Darrell Green.
57:22 great play by Rypien
We will be like this next year! Whupping the eagles in the playoffs....and DALLAS out of the playoffs again!
They won’t win five games next season .. again
You guys don't even have an identity anymore.
@@bryantmoore2696 they went to the playoffs
while the venue and the network were the same as the Body Bag Game, the announcers were not - Frank and Al and Dan were in Miami preparing to call Chiefs-Dolphins, the first of four times in the 1990s they would call those teams playing in Miami
Do you have Eagles @ Cincinnati 1994, Dallas @ Cincinnati 1994, Patriots-Bengals 1994, Cowboys-Giants 1996 where the Boys lost 20-6, Cleveland-New England playoffs,
That turf at vet was awful! Thank God more people didnt get hurt
Statement game...beat the Eagles at the Vet in a a playoff game against buddy Ryan and co...HTTR!
Beat them good too. Game wasn't even as close as the score.
It is funny how we revere Buddy, but hate Kotite....even though Kotite managed to win a playoff game, which Buddy could never do.
Believe it or not, Kotite is the last Eagles coach to beat the Saints in the playoffs (and we all know the Birds struggled against New Orleans in the playoffs)
Is anybody else the least bit amused hearing vermeil comment on Jeff fisher at 4:08
Ah yes, the game that got my paid at my tent city in the UAE in Desert Storm. I remember Byner running in the end zone, and me imitating the ref and raising my arms signaling touchdown and yelling "Cha Ching!" at 3 am in the morning. Ow man, I took that whole camp with the Redskins that year.
How many Super Bowls would JG have won if he has a HOF QB. Imagine Dan Marino or Joe Montana or ........ at QB of the Redskins for a 10yr span.
they were going to draft Marino they year after they won the SB and Miami picked him one spot ahead of us.
Can’t believe they changed the redskins name in the name of racial justice. I didn’t hear any Indians screaming to change the name
For some reason, Native American names somehow became the one "other" cause to which black racists contributed their hate.
I live in Arizona which has a big population of native Americans. I grew up in Springfield Virginia. Been here 20 years. Wore my Redskins shirt every weekend and if those people were offended, they sure would have told me because they like to drink their booze like a fish drinks water. I'd be walking to my local sports bar with satellite TV to watch my Redskins game, they smile and toast a drink with me in a Redskins shirt every time. This is a fabricated crisis by the Far Left
playoff rematch 34 yrs later
Oh, two more words, Richie Pettibone.
This just came up on my phone by mistake. To avoud total agony i fast forward the game to the last 5 minutes so i could not relive it again all the way.
44:57 ... good hustle by Clyde Simmons, rushing 25 yds downfield to make tackle
They actually had that play in Tecmo Super Bowl for Washington. Those Japanese programmers really did their homework.
51:41 ... Alvin Walton fumble recovery
That was a fumble
“There’s nothing wrong with Cunningham, the Skins defense just neutralized him” FIFY
How many times did Lawrence Taylor sack him?
Revenge is sweet !! Bodybag this!! HTTR.
What happened to Chris Carter?
Buddy Ryan was a better d coach and assistant. Not head coach material.
The five minute stretch starting from 13:45 to about 18:45 is testament to how incredibly awful the turf at the Vet was.
Any other eagles games where they won 😀
Eagles in 1990 were always talking tough but couldn't back it up. Basically a .500 team all season. They were 7-6 with 3 games left, beat 3 weak teams to get in as a wildcard, then lost this game. Bragged all week about the "body bags" game on Monday when they beat the Redskins. Talked how good they were when the beat the Giants in week 11. But they had lost to the Giants in the first game and then to Washington in week 5. They had good players, a good defense. But a lousy HC in Ryan and talked a good game but couldn't deliver.
1:06:52 ... nice goal line play by Seth Joyner
They don't know what a screen pass is ?
A pine box for Buddy just two months after the Body Bag Game.
It’s like the Eagles offense doesn’t care
Buddy Ryan benching Cunningham was him waving the white flag. He was way in over his head.
Great game! That astroturf is awful tho🫠
31:49 ... Seth Joyner looking bad-ass in this publicity photo
The eagles should crushed these bums that bogus fumble they over turned byner fumbled
2:20:00 "So Washington advances. They will play either Chicago or New Orleans". That was the wild card matchup the next day. There was no way Washington could play either team in the Divisional Round. Washington would go to New York or San Fran the next week. Washington would end up playing the 49ers next.
So many of these hits would be penalties now.
I love seeing seeing philly fans go nuts jumping up and down at the ben smith fumble (which was overturned). These were real football fans when seats were affordable.
RIP Jerome Brown
most overrated coach in nfl history was ryan
wereis he rated?
its nit his gault.Cunningham could play not play well in the playoffs.
@@somogy6667 yes its his fucking fault inbred moron

I forgot Buddy took Randall out for Jimmy Mac...bad move
why
REVENGE when it counted the most. Body bag game? Who cares?
I agree and I'm a die-hard Eagles fan the Redskins beat our ass when it mattered most. And I definitely don't miss these Kelly baby diarrhea green uniforms. The midnight green and black are way more intimidating
Don't take this A$$ whipping personally it's just business
FLY EAGLES FLY
@@robthorn8394 Uhhm, the Eagles lost this game. Remember the 80s and early 90s? Eagles were decent in the regular season, but the SKINS dominated in the PLAYOFFS!! WOOOHOOO!!!
seeing Brian Mitchells TD drive at QB. made the body bag game worth seeing. I really love Brian Mitchell and believe he could have played any position
Vermeil knew his s**t.
Skins' defense got real in the red zone.
As heralded as the Eagles D was, the Skins were better.
57:50 ... Rypien look like Randall on this play
That was such fumble ball lose get out here
1:01:00, LOL.. the refs wanted to take some time to make that (NON fumble) call to clear the air a bit and not cause some crowd riot.. or someone to not riot
the game that got buddy ryan fired....we could have been in the superbowl with the defense we had that year...
with a better coach you could have
Offense wasn't that good though
Had that been the Lions instead of the eagles byners fumble would’ve stood!
