DVD Reviews of NFL: Washington Redskins - 3 Greatest Games
DVD Review: Super Bowls are nice, but...
Summary: 3 Stars
Winning the Super Bowl is great, and watching these games is awesome. However, any true Redskins fan will tell you that the two greatest games in 'Skins history are the NFC Championship wins over Dallas. In fact, you could make an entire set out of wins over Dallas alone. The Ken Houston game, the last RFK game, even the Monday nighter in week 2 of 1991.
By the way, Why is it that some teams get Greatest Games collections of up to 10 games, and the Redskins only get 3? It's time for an updated set.
DVD Review: Not Enough.
Summary: 4 Stars
This 3-disc set seems perfunctory for one of the great franchises in the NFL. Other people have made good suggestions for future games to release. I'd also love to see some games from just prior to the Super Bowl years, like:
-1979 win over Dallas at RFK
-1980 wk 15 last-minute win over the Giants
-1981 wk 6 over Bears. 1st Gibbs win.
-1981 wk 10 33-31 shootout win over the Lions
these are just a few suggestions
DVD Review: QUALITY...EXCELLENT. COMPLETE?..NOT EXACTLY
Summary: 4 Stars
Well, the visual quality that is available on this DVD set is second to none (out of everything that has been available so far). It is very clear. Now, these sets do contain every play in these three Super Bowls (including the false start opening kickoff of Super Bowl XXVI). The footage is the same footage as the original TV broadcasts, along with commentary by the original TV game announcers. These are the strengths of the set.
The only weakness that I perceive that this set has is that the games are still somewhat edited. Some of the action between plays is edited out. So, you may see the end of a punt play, and then it might immediately cut to the next team's quarterback taking the snap, for example. So, a lot of times things that will be missing are the players going into and out of the huddle, coming onto the field, etc. In Super Bowl 26, for example, they almost completely cut out a touchdown celebration by Gerald Riggs. I imagine that for a few people, 'cutting to the chase' in this way may be preferred, but for me, these edits create a slightly artificial feel to the games on these DVDs. This is because I consider the things that were cut out to be a part of watching a football game, such as touchdown celebrations. I think it would have been better if NFL Films had released the whole game EXACTLY as broadcast on TV, except without the commercials (of course). At any rate, NFL Films should have left that stuff in, to allow you as the viewer to decide what is important enough to want to watch; if it's on the DVD, you can always fast-forward it if you don't want to watch it. But if it's not there to begin with, then you don't even have the option of watching it. If you want the whole, uncut games, you're going to have to look elsewhere.
For having the great visual quality, and every play, but also due to the edits, I give this collection Four Stars.
DVD Review: Redskins Super Bowl Wins
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent quality for these 3 Super Bowl games. Would have been nice to have more classic games in this collection than just the Redskins 3 Super Bowl wins, but a nice group of games. Enjoyable to watch, even for a non-Redskins fan like me.DVD Review: Great DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great collection of the Redskins' three Super Bowl victories. It was great going back and actually reliving some of those great moments. Who can ever forget that great run by John Riggins???
