It's opening day week, so back we go to opening day from 2007! This would be final opening day for our beloved Coach Gibbs, who finished a surprisingly modest 8-8 in openers. Gibbs' teams were slow-starters weren't they? ...but often fast finishers, as would be the case in this fateful season.

The Dolphins were in town, and they brought the Florida sunshine with them, along with a familiar face at QB - our old friend Trent Green. Jason Campbell led the Redskins offense in circles for most of this one, along with many of our '00s favorites (Portis, Moss, Coooooley and, according to Dan Dierdorf "Rantionne Andel-El"... oh, Deirdoff).

This was a low scoring, defensively dominated affair that saw the Redskins D rebound from a miserable '06 showing as Washington gutted out a tough, entertaining victory in front of a jubilant FedEx Field crowd.

The surprisingly long-employed Dan Deirdoff on the call here with one of the Gumbels (I forget which one, does it matter?) for the start of Joe Gibbs' final NFL campaign.

This is where I usually encourage folks with old games to email me, but no one ever does so I'm gonna go drink now. Yeah.... you can feel bad about that.
