There have been so many incredible moments.

For me - it's easy. Being at Fed Ex with my best friend and seeing the incredible Hail Mary vs. the Bears as time expired.... nothing this season, or maybe ever, will top that.

But there have been a ton of great moments in this amazing year 1 of the rebuild.

What's been your favorite?
 
The late TD to Terry against the bengals on MNF. That’s when we knew.

1. The late TD to Hertz to beat the Eagles.
1.a. The late TD to McLaurin to beat the Cowboys.
 
so far for me it was securing that 11th win against the Falcons. I think most here are old enough to remember 1991 and what came before also, but an entire generation of fans has grown up here without them knowing that kind of success. I’m very happy for them. For me, it’s just shocking that it’s been that long since we have had this kind of success here. Then today getting the 12th win over Dallas. Just awesome 😎👍
 
It's so hard to say, but just because I saw it live... The Chicago Hail Mary.

That sequence where we went to coasting to a victory, to the Bears stealing the win with less than a minute left, to the impossible win was the real life versiion of that "Yes!" "No!" "Bleating goat!" "Yesssss!!!" comercial.

I have never left the stadium that pumped.
 
It's hard to argue against the Hail Mary. That's a once in a lifetime play (by the way, screw the red zone channel who only had that as their #2 play of the year).

But I agree with TTViper and that McLaurin TD against the Bengals. Such a great and clutch game clinching play. It did show that things had changed. We all knew that now we have someone who can make plays and do it all when you need it.

Another kind of underrated aspect of that play was how excited Joe Buck got calling that TD. His voice cracked in excitement from that play. For as long as he has been calling games, there was always a lack of excitement for anything this team did. Even on dramatic plays like the Vincent FG block for Sean Taylor to return the ball and Nick Novak to make the kick with no time left to win. He make a very begrudging and mundane "Redskins win". When just a few plays earlier, he was extremely excited about a Witten first down catch to get them into FG range. Maybe he held a grudge against the former owner for something, and who can blame him if that were the case. But he always seemed less than thrilled whenever this team did something great in a game. But not that night. And that's when I realized that it wasn't just us as fans taking notice, it was the rest of the league, the other fans, and the national media that had seen this franchise as a joke for so long was seeing there was something special happening with this team.
 
beating the eagles for me too. Seeing Washington fans going absolutely crazy so many times this year has been so awesome.

AP just getting started
