How the game changed NFL history
On November 27th, 1983 the Washington Redskins played the Dallas Cowboys in a game that would go down in NFL history. The final score was a whopping 72-41, with the Redskins coming out on top. This game completely changed the NFL landscape, and is still considered one of the most important games in league history.
Prior to this game, the NFL was a primarily ground-based league, with most teams relying on their running backs to carry the load offensively. However, this game showed that a team could be successful by throwing the ball around, and it opened up the league to a whole new style of play. The Redskins had one of the best passing attacks in the league, led by quarterback Joe Theismann and wide receiver Charlie Brown. They torched the Cowboys secondary all day long, racking up over 600 yards through the air.
This game completely changed how teams approached offense, and led to a more wide open style of play that we see today. It also had a major impact on TV ratings, as this was one of the highest scoring games ever seen up to that point. The NFL has never been more popular than it is today, and this game played a big part in its rise to prominence.
