Re: "The Quarter"
You're right. I will never forget. Does that make you proud to be a Redskin fan or what?

Re: "The Quarter"
I remebmer the terrible, sinking feeling I had when elway threw that bomb, and boom, we're down 10-0.
Then like a connection of electric wires, D. Williams et al just crushed the broncos in every way. The late Pete Axhelm (sp?) said it best after this game, paraphrasing; 'sometimes super bowls are like heavyweight fights. Each team is swinging as hard as they can. If they miss they get knocked out.' |

Re: "The Quarter"
The first and still the greatest Super Bowl I ever watched. You can tell it means a lot to me...look to the left.

Re: "The Quarter"
On the play that Williams got hurt late in the 1st quarter, at the time I thought that the refs blew the whistle early. Williiams fumbled the ball as he writhed in pain, yet he was never downed by a defender. Thankfully, the ref on the scene blew the play dead, or Denver would have had the ball deep in Skins territory, already up 10-0. The injury (and seeing Schroeder QB the next series) seemed to break Williams out of his funk, and the rest was a quarter for the ages. No team will EVER amass 350+ yards in a quarter - pre-season, regular season, or post-season. It may have been the most perfect football ever played.
