That was the same time we had just acquired Dana Stubblefield, and we also had Big Daddy Dan on the D-line. And GUS was wrecking the bus......or at least his head into the goal post!

Shar Pourdanesh...wow, that takes me back.

I am 35, pops. And glad that someone was keeping up with the RT position before me.
And Gus didn't run his head into the goal post, it was the padding on the cement wall in the endzone that he headbutt.
I had the pleasure of being at the ONLY playoff game that FedEx has held when Gus was the QB in Detroit & I remember signs all over the stadium reading "Hey Gus! Hit head here!" with a big target &/or bullseye on it...EVERYWHERE! From the endzone walls to the upper decks...just lined with them. It was hilarious. The very first play was a sack & we didn't sit down until after halftime. The place was going nuts!
The only game that I have been to that was better was 11.5.06. That is my favorite game with my favorite Redskins moment of all time. Of course, Sean Taylor was involved with that moment. Nothing like watching the Cowboys fans' faces turn so quickly like that...
I'm sorry, I got off topic. My bad.
