This was the famous game Grimm changed Gibbs playcalls in the huddle near the end of the game to run right at HOF'er Randy White and run out the clock.
We do not have that physical play anymore.

Video could also be called
Dexter Destoys Dallas. Check out 1:01 and 1:50 when he bats the ball.
I also feel lucky to have experienced this, and can get a little choked up about it sometimes. Four Super Bowls in 10 years racks up a lot of lifelong memories with family, friends, and yes bartenders, and complete strangers. I've hugged the young and old, rich and poor, a lot of drunks and a couple dudes in wheel chairs during a championship game. It's what Redskin fans did, especially when RFK roared (and when beer man came around).
Here's my video contribution outside of the Super Bowls. This one's only a few seconds, but says it all. Who we were, and will be again someday.
Get to 4:00 on this one (playoffs v. Atlanta...it was about effing cold and rained the entire time, one of favorite RFK memories). Anyway, I was in my early 20s during the glory years, and hope those of you of the same age today get a taste of this. You so deserve it.
