2000 RetroSkins Highlights: Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Washington Redskins
Спорт
We go back to 2000, for a playoff grudge match between the Redskins and the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay escaped in the '99 divisional round with a 14-13 win over Washington, a game dominated by defense. And so it was again this time, with Redskins defense having the upper hand from beginning to end.... almost.
Those Redskins big-name off-season acquisitions smothered the Bucs offense entirely, until a fluke play in the final minutes spurred a dramatic comeback for Tampa Bay, which forced overtime and yet more drama.
This was the game in which the Redskins looked like they were going to live up to all the offseason hype, going toe-to-toe with a playoff foe in a game filled with postseason energy. The 80,000+ crowd roared and the band bounced as Pat Summerall and John Madden made their first-ever appearance at FedEx Field.
Remastered from a VHS master, this is a sparkling gem (though it takes a few minutes for the action to pick-up - stick with me here).

One of the greatest of all time. 2 big turnovers, in his 18th year, the man was 40!!!! It never gets old when Pat Summerall & John Madden when they talk about him during the game(s)...seems like they always did our games.

@11kful I included their Darrell Green gushing especially. Love those moments when they talked about a favorite Skins player, giving voice to our collective feelings.
I miss this team. The band, the fight song, the tradition.

Wow! That's the Team I grew up watching. At one point our Team had, Bruce Smith, Darrell Green, Deion Sanders, Champ Bailey, Prime Lavar Arrington! Irvin Fryer year 19! Incredible Nostalgia! @RetroSkins Thank You for the video
I liked Brad Johnson a lot! Wish Dan Snyder kept him around longer.

I agree!!! Ironically, he went on to win a Super Bowl with this Bucs team as you probably know. Dan Snyder was someone a lot of people didn't want to play for.

Brad Johnson has more career TD passes than Troy Aikmen!!
I just want you to know: I am campaigning hard and doing everything within my power to bring back the Washington Redskins name, logo and likeness. Ive signed online petitions, Ive sent out tweets, and I wont stop until we get what we want...... HAIL TO THE REDSKINS FOR LIFE
God they blew this game!!!I remember this well!!
I remember this game. This was a battle. I miss how loud the fans are when defense was on the field. This is the same Redskins team who beat the 2000 Ravens

You’re welcome. I’ll bet it was exciting on radio back in the day.
The first of only TWO games that Pat and John would ever call together at FedEx Field. The other was later on that 2000 season against the Giants.
i still have PTSD everytime we get a strip sack, i just assume the qb will pick up and make a great play. how we lost the playoff game to the Bucs
Thank you @retroskins!!! HTTR!!!
Only 4 playoff games at fedex field is crazy 😢
Why couldn't they rebrand as the RedHogs; something that not only sounds close to Redskins but also pays homage to the Hogs. Then replace the face of the Redskins logo with the old retro R symbol inside the circle with the feather hanging down. Then keep the uniforms the same. Just remove the Redskins name on the chest and replace with RedHogs. Simple.

Red Hogs was everyone’s choice. So of course, they went with something else. Word was they chose something military to appear respectable. Let’s hope the regime makes a change soon
Big game, 17-17 OT and you kick to Deion, no angle nothing, he wasn't the 21 from Dallas or Atlanta but still that's disrespectful to say o we'll take our chances
18:53 when’s the last time u saw a Washington qb have to tell our crowd to quiet down so he can hear the play 🤣🤣🤣 my god have shit been bad
This was a great game to watch
If it wasn't for Snyder that Davis/Johnson duo could've went the distance

Very possible. Johnson racked up 18 wins in under two seasons of starts for the Skins. Impressive by Snyder-era standards. Snyder’s ego wrecked a would-be winner for sure.
Been a while since i thought about the 2000 season, i believe this was the last year before the Salary Crap kicked in and the Redskins had a $100,000,000 payroll and looked as if they had bought a Super Bowl that year, sitting at 6-2 but the football Gods and Snyder had other ideas. So between the Johnson and George controversy thanks to idiot Snyder and woeful kicking game and the firing of Turner they were done. Thou i feel had Snyder left Turner alone at least until the season was over they might have made the playoffs. Oh well, would've could've should've. Thanks for posting Brother
Had Deion stayed outside to the right.....he would've scored EASILY. DIDN'T know why he cut back inside.

Agreed. Easy TD angling right inside the 10. He ran left into the cutoff path of the defender who showed some serious speed in running him down.
I was like 22 or 23 wen I saw this game, we were competitive but Dan Snyder had to ruin things, force coaches to play his players, act like a baby make us suck
Mark never saw a missed tackle I didn't like carrrier

@@RetroSkins Exactly, and that is only one of a litany of moronic signings he impetuously foisted on despondent fans. The Redskins became the team where former superstars came to die, i.e., give a half hearted effort while making a few million more before retiring. They were all coasting.
