Since 1932, the Washington Redskins/Football Team has established themselves as one of the core franchises in the NFL.
Granted, the last 20 odd years or so have been tough on fans, but with three Super Bowl championships under their belt and 23 players/coaches in the Hall of Fame, we have had our fair share to be proud of.
When we talk about the greatest moments in this franchise's history, it's easy to recall Doug Williams' performance winning Super Bowl XXII, the '91 team's utter dominance en route to capturing Super Bowl XXVI, the return of Joe Gibbs to coaching, or Art Monk's enshrinement in Canton. The list goes on and on.
This season, with the WFT sitting at 6-9 and facing an opportunity to clinch the division on Sunday at Philadelphia, there are a few signature plays that have helped put the team in the position it currently sits. These include Antonio Gibson's 23 yard TD icing the Thanksgiving game while waving to the Dallas defender, Chase Young's hit on Joe Burrow at the goal line causing a fumble and turnover, Cam Sims' one handed catch at Pittsburgh in a tie ball game on 3rd and 4 to basically set up the game winning field goal, and Chase Young's and Kam Curl's defensive TDs in the San Francisco game.
Let's use these signature plays from 2020 as a springboard to reflect on the greatest individual plays in the WFT's franchise history.
In your opinion, what are your personal four "Mount Rushmore Plays" in your time as a fan? What four individual plays gave you the greatest sense of joy and celebration? While there is definitely one obvious one depending on people's age, I think there is the potential for a lot of variety as well. Let's hear what you have to say as we celebrate the WFT's past.
In saying all this, here is hoping that we can add a few more great plays to this list tomorrow night vs. the Eagles!
