1990 RetroSkins Highlights: Phoenix Cardinals vs Washington Redskins

RetroSkins friends, your angry emails and letter-bombs were received, as so - by demand - we're back to RFK!
The 1990 Redskins were coming off back-to-back non-playoff seasons in '88 and '89, with a big part that lack of success stemming from struggles winning at home. That all changed with this game, the '90 season opener against everyone's favorite houseguest, the Phoenix Cardinals. The Redskins beat the visiting Cards for the 12th straight season, kicking off a delightful 22-4 RFK run covering Joe Gibbs' final three seasons.
This one is a bit bittersweet, as it marked the return of Joe Bugel, the long-time O-line coach for Washington who ventured out to Arizona to try his luck at head coaching. The turnover-prone Cardinals' 31-0 defeat had Buges throwing his headset in disgust (that's what we loved about him!) as the Redskins rolled with ease on this cloudy opening day at RFK.
This tape is a little on the grainy / noisy side, but we did our best with it.
The venerable Dick Stockton along with Merlin Olsen on the call as the Redskins get back into playoff gear.
