    Redskins' 'Super' Win vs. Bills Was Special http://www.redskins.com/cda-web/article-module.htm?id=885fb576-edd... Redskins' 'Super' Win vs. Bills Was Special By Mike Richman Posted Oct 28, 2011 Sunday’s game against Buffalo marks the 13th time that the Redskins have faced the Bills since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970. Buffalo leads the series, 7-5, but the Redskins prevailed when the two teams clashed on the grandest stage. On Jan. 26, 1992, the Redskins dismantled Buffalo in Super Bowl XXVI, 37-24, at the Metrodome in Minneapolis. The 13-point margin failed to magnify the Redskins’ dominance. They led 24-0 in the third period and 37-10 in the fourth until the Bills scored two late touchdowns. Yes, two decades have passed since the Redskins last competed for the NFL championship. They have reached the postseason only four times since and have won two playoff games, which makes Super Bowl XXVI all the more special. It was the last of three Super Bowl wins during the Redskins’ glory era under Joe Gibbs from 1981-92. The victory also capped the most spectacular single-season run by the Redskins. They finished 14-2 in 1991, tying the 1983 team for the most wins in franchise history, and rolled over Atlanta and Detroit in the playoffs. By the time the Redskins took to the field for Super Bowl XXVI, they were primed to apply the final imprint on an outstanding season. “Against Buffalo, we knew we had a special team that year that would be hard to beat if we played up to our standards,” said receiver Gary Clark, who caught seven passes for 114 yards and a touchdown that day.

    GARY ZAUNERS 13 YEAR NFL COACHING CAREER HIGHLIGHTS 2006 SEASON: ARIZONA CARDINALS: From 2006 Arizona Cardinals Media Guide: Gary Zauner is entering his 13th season as an NFL assistant and his first with the Cardinals after being hired to coach special teams on 1/5/06. Throughout his career, Zauner has been noted for discovering and recruiting undrafted rookie free agents and turning them into successful NFL players. Robert Griffith (Minnesota) and Obefemi Ayanbadejo (Minnesota), who are both on the Cardinals roster, got their start under Zauner as did Brian Russell (Minnesota), Will Demps (Baltimore), B.J. Sams (Baltimore) and Matt Katula (Baltimore). 2002 – 2005 SEASON: BALTIMORE RAVENS: From 2005 Baltimore Ravens Media Guide: Gary Zauner entered his 4th season as Special Teams Coordinator following dramatic efforts of the ever- changing special teams unit. Rookie free agent B.J. Sams posted two punt returns for TDs (tied for NFL and Ravens record) and set a new single-season franchise record with 1,826 combined return yards. From 2004 Baltimore Ravens Media Guide: Gary Zauner guided the 2003 Ravens kickoff coverage team to 3rd overall in NFL (2nd in AFC) with an average start of 26.4-yard line. Dallas Morning News football Columnist Rick Gosselin ranked the Ravens’ 2003 special teams 4th in the NFL (based on 20+ categories). This Ravens’ kickoff special teams unit was 2nd in the NFL with 17 tackles inside the 20. From 2003 Baltimore Ravens Media Guide: Gary Zauner was named the Ravens 1st Special Teams Coordinator in 2002. After 8 years of setting or breaking NFL records with the Minnesota Vikings as their special teams coach, it’s no fluke that the Ravens produced 4 special teams TDs last season.

  • APBA's GREAT FOOTBALL TEAMS of the PAST
    APBA’s GREAT FOOTBALL TEAMS OF THE PAST - Vol. 2 1. PHILADELPHIA 1949 The Eagles breezed to their third straight Eastern Division crown losing only once in twelve games, a 38-21 setback at the Bears October 16. Philly finished 4 1/2 games ahead of second place Pittsburgh. The Eagles' success still rested on the twin pillars of their outstanding 5-2-4 "Eagle Defense" and a ball-control offense built around All-Pro RB Steve Van Buren, who led the league in rushing attempts, yards, and rushing TDs. The other speedy HB, Bosh Pritchard, provided a wide threat. The pilot of the highest-scoring offense in the league, Tommy Thompson, has been somewhat overlooked for his contributions to the Eagles' success. The slick ballhandler was adept at faking a handout, hiding the ball on his hip, and flinging a pass downfield. 2. GREEN BAY 1966 This team won Super Bowl I. The Packers went 12-2 during the regular season beating the Dallas Cowboys in the “Ice Bow” on quarterback Bart Starr’s one-yard sneak for the game winning touchdown. Two weeks later, the Packers soundly beat the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl I. This was Starr’s only MVP season. This was the second of Green Bay’s three consecutive NFL championship teams. Hall of Famers at every level on this team. Many of them All-Time Greats. 3. MIAMI 1972 The only team to have a perfect regular season record and win the Super Bowl. During the 1972 season, Bob Griese’s ankle was broken in Week 5 as he was sacked by San Diego Chargers defensive tackle Ron East and defensive end Deacon Jones.
