- Lavar Arrington's interception returned for a TD against the Panthers. You could sense that things were changing after their 0-5 start.
- Stephen Davis fumbling late in the game and blowing it vs. the effing Cowboys. I'm pretty sure that was 2001 and it was on a Sunday or Monday night.
- Kent Graham's legendary performance.

My question now is, why didn't Kent Graham take another snap for the Redskins after that? WTF, Marty!!! Maybe Marty did deserve the pink slip.

Thats a good question. George was gone. Tony banks played in front of graham the rest of the year. Graham never really played again with hiuston so i think it was an every dog has his day thing against denver? Funny thing is as i was just looking up info on graham to find out that it was the redskins who got him benched while he was on the giants and for all intensive purposes his career was ovet at that point. I just went back and looked again. Graham didnt start the denver game so banks must have gotten hurt and than came back the next week. Banks already won three in a row going into the denver game.

Yep him and Daniels were great for a couple of years there. If we had that D and somewhat of an offense we would have won a few more playoff games

I was at that game two 0-4 teams on Monday Night Football, that where i learned how classless 99% of Cowboy fans are that game and about five after it that i had to make the walk of shame out of Cowboy Stadium. Terrible experience for years.

Benny Malone. Had the weirdest running style I ever saw. It was like he was running in seven different directions at once.

SKINS73 · 08-31-2012, 08:31 AM

Did anyone mention the very first H-Back in NFL history, Nick Giaquinto?!

We'll never have a DLINE like this again (especially since we run a 34 now)!

Dexter Manley
Daryl Grant
Dave Butz
Charles Mann

This is a where are they now for Grant. I always thought Grant and Butz never got enough credit for the job they did. I love Grant's statement from the article about Dexter always asking him what play they were running. Imagine how Dexter could play had he only been... smart.

JoeRedskin · 08-31-2012, 09:15 AM

Yeah, Grant was the original one man gang. He played O-Line for at least a year before switching to D.

Pete Wysocki
Pete Cronan ('Cronan The Barbarian')
Speedy Duncan
Tony Green
Larry Jones
and 5 more

Michael Barrow had a solid couple of years, but I don't remember him having a huge impact. I think Marcus Washington made more of an impact than he did.

Barrow didn't even see any regular season action here.

Maybe you guys are thinking of Jessie Armstead?
