The '87 Super Bowl Champs probably had a chip on their shoulders about getting stuck in a Play In Game - 4th in offense/6th in defense in the scab season. 32 year old Doug Williams only started 2 games in the regular season - but he got the ball in the playoffs to lead the Skins to the title. 25 year old Gary Clark was an All Pro, in 11 starts he went over a thousand yards receiving. On defense, 24 year old Barry Wilburn was an All Pro with 9 picks, 26 year old Charles Mann and 28 year old Dexter Manley combined for 18 sacks. 29 year old George Rogers, who won the Heisman Trophy 7 years prior, was Player of the Game in the play in round with 2 scores.
