A season that started with so much promise but ended so cruely. Aside from the 23 picks, White had a phenomenal year, even gracing the cover of the Sporting News as "America's Quarterback." No Pro Bowl, however, and by the next year's training camp, he was out of a job. An incredible fall from grace. That Raider game was wild. If I'm not mistaken, Marc Wilson started for Plunkett and absolutely tore us up. The Skins game was very deflating, especially the "Fun Bunch" celebration in our endzone. My high school librarian was a kind woman but also a big Dallas hater, and she made sure that I saw the cover of that week's SI featured prominently among the other periodicals. Still haven't forgiven her. Can't recall much about the Rams loss other than the Texas Stadium toilets freezing solid. The Skins loss was so dispiriting that they played like zombies the rest of the way.
