Redskins Team Marketing NFL Game: Redskins
Head Coach Joe Gibbs led Washington Redskins to three Super Bowl wins in 11 years, and he did it with three different quarterbacks. A players' strike shortened the NFL season to nine games in 1982 leaving teams scrambling to reach the playoffs. Most clubs were rusty after the layoff, but Gibbs kept Redskins focused. In Super Bowl XVII, it was Joe Theismann who led Washington to victory over the Miami  Dolphins. In 1987, Gibbs told Doug Williams that he was being traded to the Raiders but  reconsidered just hours later. In Super Bowl XXII Doug Williams' made  Gibbs' decision a brilliant one as his passing produced an amazing 35 points in the second quarter alone and he was named the games MVP. Five years later, Gibbs took note of Mark Rypien's ability to throw an accurate deep pass which, combined with the speed of wide receivers Art Monk, Ricky Sanders and Gary Clark, helped lead the Redskins to victory over the  Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl XXVI. The story of the 1982 Redskins is told by Theismann, guard Russ Grimm and tight end Rick  Walker. Williams, center Jeff Bostic and cornerback Darrell Green recount the 1987 Redskins' season. And Hall of Fame Coach Joe Gibbs, Rypien and defensive end Charles Mann retell the tale of the 1991 Redskins. ****PLEASE NOTE:  This item is shipped directly from the manufacturer and is delivered via Standard shipping only.
