And away we go, episode 1,250 of the Al-Galdi podcast.

It is Friday, January 30th, 2026. And yes, this is episode

1,250 of this podcast. We are halfway to episode 2,500. And this episode, 1,250 is for January 30th,

2006, what is the 43rd anniversary of the Washington Redskins' first of

three Super Bowl wins. January 30th, 1983, the skins 2717 win over the Miami Dolphins at the Rose Bowl

in Pasadena, California, and Super Bowl 17. The skins overcame a 17-10 halftime deficit, one in the second half, 17-0.

The skins held the Dolphins to just 176 total net yards of offense,

76 of which came on a first quarter 76-yard touchdown pass from Dolphins quarterback David Woodley

to receiver Jimmy Cephalo. And the Dolphins quarterback David Woodley to receiver Jimmy

Cephalo.

And the Dolphins' other touchdown in the game was a late second quarter 98-yard kickoff

return for a touchdown by defensive back Fulton Walker.

And when it came to the Skins offense in the game, well, the offense was highlighted by

the single greatest play in Skins history, running back John Riggins' fourth

quarter, fourth and one, 43-yard eye formation handoff touchdown run on which El Rigo broke

through an attempted tackle by cornerback Don McNeil, who had stumbled as the play was developing,

and he had stumbled, thanks to tight end, Clint Didier, having gone in motion.

The iconic photo of McNeil falling off Riggins while holding on to Riggins jersey is at all-timer.

Here is the television call of the play Dick Enberg and Merlin Olson on NBC.

Like a couple of expectant father, Shula pacing the sidelines, Gibbs, irritated.

There's Bill Ernst Parker.

Of course, he's made his defensive call.
