"Playing over 20 years, in high school, college and the pros, I had never been involved in anything like I had seen in that 15 minutes of football," Jacoby told me in my book, "Hail Victory, the Oral History of the Washington Redskins." "I remember one play toward the end of the game when we scored our last touchdown. We were on the goal line, and we ran one of our goal-line plays, but the left guard, Raleigh McKenzie, had the wrong play. I was the only one who pulled, and we still scored. On the second long touchdown by Timmy Smith, you could see the look of dejection in [Denver's] faces."
