REDSKINS WELCOME BROWNS TO FEDEXFIELD LOOKING TO GET BACK ON TRACK The Redskins will look to bounce back from their first loss in five weeks when they host the Cleveland Browns (1-3) this Sunday at 4:15 ET. Cleveland has won two straight after dropping its first three. The contest will be broadcast by CBS-TV with Ian Eagle calling the playby-play and Soloman Wilcots adding the analysis. The game can also be heard on the Redskins Radio Network with Larry Michael on the play-by-play, former Redskins greats and Pro Football Hall of Fame members Sam Huff and Sonny Jurgensen adding color and Doc Walker reporting from the sideline. Sports USA Radio Network will air the game nationally with Howard David and Ross Tucker in the booth and Tony Graziani on the sidelines. Washington (4-2) will be at home for
the second straight contest after falling to St. Louis last week, 19-17, which ended a four-game winning streak. Despite the loss, Washington is still tied for the second-best record in the NFC under first-year Head Coach Jim Zorn. They are one of just four teams in the league to rank in the top 10 in total offense and total defense. Washington was the first team in NFL history to play its first five games of the season without an offensive turnover before losing three fumbles in the first half against St. Louis. The Redskins could only manage to force one Rams turnover, making last Sunday the first time all season Washington lost the turnover battle. With a +4 differential, the Redskins still rank tied for second in the NFC and third in the NFL. One bright spot in last week’s game was the continued success of the

WASHINGTON REDSKINS HEAD COACH JIM ZORN On February 10, 2008, Redskins Owner Daniel M. Snyder welcomed Jim Zorn as the franchise’s 27th head coach, ushering in a new chapter in Redskins history. Zorn, an NFL quarterback from 1976-87 and an NFL assistant coach the last 11 years, brings an approach that he describes as “constant and consistent” in terms of how he manages coaches and players. “My hope is to hold the traditions and the fight that the Redskins have always had in high regard,” Zorn said. “I am going to try in my best effort to continue that tradition in my tenure here as the head football coach.” Zorn reached the top of his profession in an exciting couple of weeks. Zorn was originally hired as the Redskins’ offensive coordinator on January 26, 2008. He impressed Snyder and Executive Vice President of Football Operations Vinny Cerrato so much that, two weeks later, they decided to offer him the head coaching job. He succeeds Hall of Fame coach Joe Gibbs. “We wanted a head coach that had great character, integrity, leadership skills, smarts, drive, energy and passion,” said Snyder. “In Coach Zorn, we ended up with a person that has all of those attributes, plus much, much more.” Zorn joined the Redskins from the Seattle Seahawks where he spent the last seven seasons (2001-07) as quarterbacks coach. The Seahawks won four consecutive division titles, made five straight playoff appearances and posted a franchise-best 13-3 record and first-ever Super Bowl appearance in 2005. During his time in Seattle, Zorn worked with Seahawks Head Coach Mike Holmgren and Offensive Coordinator Gil Haskell in implementing the team’s offense while also continuing in the development of the team’s quarterbacks. Zorn tutored QB Matt Hasselbeck who set a franchise record with 3,841 passing yards in 2003. Hasselbeck has become the franchise’s most-efficient passer (85.1 rating) while joining Zorn as the only franchise quarterback to pass for 3,000-plus yards in three consecutive seasons. In 2007, Hasselbeck set Seattle single-season marks for attempts (562), completions (352) and yards (3,966). He also threw for a career-high 28 touchdowns en route to his third Pro Bowl selection. In 2006, Hasselbeck started just 12 games after suffering a knee injury in the middle of the season and finished the year with a fractured finger on his left hand. In the interim, Zorn helped with the development of Seneca Wallace, who completed 58% of his passes, tossed eight touchdowns, posted a 76.2 passer rating and a 2-2 record in the most extensive playing time of his four-year career. In 2005, Zorn guided Hasselbeck to his second Pro Bowl appearance and the NFC’s top-rated passer (4th NFL) with a 98.2 rating en route to Super Bowl XL. Hasselbeck directed WASHINGTON REDSKINS
the NFL’s second-ranked offense to a franchise-record 11 consecutive wins and in his four December games he posted the fourth-best passer rating in NFL history (135.5), including 10 touchdowns to one interception, and completed 76% of his passes. Zorn’s 2002 campaign had Trent Dilfer open the season as the starter and concluded with Hasselbeck under center. Seattle’s passing attack ranked third in the NFL averaging 254.9-yards a game. Hasselbeck finished the season ranked first in the NFC with a 63.7 completion percentage and second in the NFC with a 87.8 passer rating. Hasselbeck passed for more than 300 yards four times, including a franchise-record 449 in the season finale at San Diego. Hasselbeck joined Zorn as the only Seahawks quarterbacks to pass for at least 300 yards in back to back games. Zorn accomplished the feat in 1979 and 1981. Zorn’s 2001 quarterback crop included Holmgren’s hand-picked starter Hasselbeck, Super Bowl XXXV quarterback Dilfer and 2000 part-time starter Brock Huard. Zorn groomed Hasselbeck and helped the first-year starter to become the AFC’s fifth-rated passer on third-down with a rating of 80.6. Zorn joined the Seahawks as quarterbacks coach after serving in the same capacity with the Detroit Lions (199800). He was instrumental in the development of rookie quarterback Charlie Batch in 1998. Batch’s 88.3 passer rating that season ranks as the fourth-highest rookie mark in NFL history. Zorn broke into the NFL coaching ranks as an offensive assistant for the Seahawks in 1997. Zorn spent eight seasons in the collegiate ranks before his pro debut. He spent two seasons (1995-96) as quarterbacks coach at the University of Minnesota and three seasons (1992-94) as the offensive coordinator at Utah State. His first collegiate coaching job was as an offensive assistant/quarterbacks coach at Boise State from 1989-91. His playing career began in the Seahawks’ inaugural 1976 season, starting all 14 games at quarterback. He went on to play nine seasons for the Seahawks. After departing Seattle, he finished his playing career with the Green Bay Packers (1985), the Canadian Football League’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers (1986) and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1987). Along with Jacksonville’s Jack Del Rio, Zorn had the longest NFL playing career (11 years) among the league’s 32 head coaches. Zorn is one of only eight players inducted to the Seahawks’ Ring of Honor. He was named NFC Offensive Rookie of the Year (1976) and ranks second in the Seahawks’ record book behind Dave Krieg in yards (20,122), completions (1,593), attempts (2,992), and touchdowns (107). His three consecutive 3,000-yard seasons were tops in team history, since broken by Hasselbeck in 2005, and he was the first Seattle quarterback to record back-to-back 300-plus yard games–a feat he accomplished twice.

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
FIRST-YEAR REDSKINS COACHES With a 4-2 start, Jim Zorn is hoping to lead the Redskins to their third winning season in four years. He is also looking to become the sixth Redskins head coach to amass a winning record in his first year at the helm, as just five of his 26 predecessors have accomplished this feat, not including Dick Todd, who was 5-4 in taking over three games into the 1951 season.
Twelve first-year head coaches suffered losing campaigns, including Joe Gibbs in his return in 2004. Additionally, Herman Ball coached the final seven games in 1949 and finished 1-4, while Terry Robiskie finished 12 while coaching the last three games of 2000. Seven first-year head coaches ended their seasons with a .500 record.

SKINFORMATION/LEAGUE LEADERS BALANCED ATTACK The Redskins have been equally efficient on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, ranking seventh and eighth in the league, respectively. Washington is currently one of four NFL teams to rank in the top 10 in total offense and total defense. Coincidentally, all four of those teams reside in the NFC East. The Redskins and Giants are the only two teams in the conference to place in the top five in both offense and defense.
Portis has found plenty of running room behind one of the NFL’s best offensive lines consisting of left tackle Chris Samuels, left guard Pete Kendall, center Casey Rabach, right guard Randy Thomas and right tackles Stephon Heyer and Jon Jansen. Providing further space has been the excellent lead blocking of fullback Mike Sellers. Since Jansen was re-inserted into the starting lineup for an injured Heyer three weeks ago against Dallas, Washington has rushed for an NFL-high 545 yards over this span, an average of 181.7 yards per game. Two weeks ago, the Redskins racked up 203 yards on the ground against an Eagles defense that came into the game leading the league in rushing yards allowed at a paltry 53.8 yards per contest. The unit gets stronger as the game goes on as the Redskins’ 243 rushing yards in the fourth-quarter are the third-most in the league this season. Their 18 fourth-quarter rushing first downs are an NFL high. Portis has been a major factor in closing games for Washington this season as his 14 fourth-quarter rushing first downs is a league high and twice as many as any other runner in the NFC. On the other side of the ledger, the Redskins rush defense has faced offenses the last three weeks that each featured a Pro Bowl running back in Marion Barber, Brian Westbrook and Steven Jackson. The trio combined for just 145 rushing yards and a 3.15-yards per carry average. The Redskins rush defense, which now ranks sixth in the league, has allowed just 349 rushing yards over the last five weeks, an average of only 69.8 yards per game, the fourth-best mark in the league over this span.
WINNING THE TURNOVER BATTLE After becoming the first team in NFL history to play its first five games without an offensive turnover, the Redskins registered three in last Sunday’s loss to the Rams, including a fumble that was returned 75 yards for a touchdown. Still, the Redskins have only four turnovers on the season, which is the second-fewest in the league to Miami’s two. Washington is the only team yet to have thrown an interception. The Redskins’ +4 turnover differential ranks tied for third in the NFL, behind Tennessee and Philadelphia, and second in the NFC. As a team Washington has gone 309 pass attempts without an interception, dating back to last season. Campbell is currently on a streak of 201 consecutive attempts without an interception, which is a franchise record. Against Philadelphia on Oct. 5, Campbell surpassed Joe Theismann’s previous record of 161, set in 1983. DEFENSE SUCCEEDING AGAINST LEAGUE’S BEST In their six games this season, the Redskins have faced five of the NFL’s top nine offensive units, including the top three in the league. The Washington defense, ranked eighth in the NFL, has held the Giants, Saints, Cardinals, Cowboys and Eagles all to their lowest yardage totals of the season. Additionally, the Redskins defense held St. Louis to just 200 total yards of offense in last week’s defeat. Washington ranks 10th in the league in points allowed per game (19.5), although the Redskins’ three return touchdowns allowed are tied for a league high with six other teams. Two of those returns came via the punt, while one was from a fumble. The defense itself has allowed only 96 points in the six games, or 16 points per contest. Additionally, Washington’s defense has only allowed 13 points in the fourth-quarter this season, an average of less than 2.2 a game, the fourth-lowest total in the NFL.
REDSKINS ARE POSSESSIVE On the season, the Redskins hold a 32:35-27:25 time of possession advantage over their opponents. This margin ranks third in the league behind Baltimore and the New York Giants. During a four-game winning streak from weeks twofive, Washington held the ball for a combined 40:26 longer than its opponents. Last week in a loss to the Rams, Washington extended its streak to five consecutive games with a time of possession advantage. This is its longest streak since 2001-02 when they ran off six games in a row (from 12/09/01 vs. Arizona to 09/08/02 vs. Arizona). The longest streak in team history is 11 games in a row (last 10 games in 1983 and week one of 1984). The second longest streak is seven games (last six games in 1985 and week one in 1986). THE BEASTLY EAST The four members of the NFC East have combined for a 15-8 record, the best among the NFL’s eight divisions, including a mark of 11-4 outside the division. The Redskins currently stand at 2-1 in the NFC East after playing all three divisional rivals on the road in
RUNNETH OVER Washington’s 152.3 rushing yards per game ranks third in the NFL behind the New York Giants and Atlanta Falcons. Running back Clinton Portis leads the league with 643 rushing yards and his six rushing touchdowns are tied for second in the NFL. WASHINGTON REDSKINS

SPREADING THE WEALTH Chris Cooley (30), Santana Moss (29) and Antwaan Randle El (26) rank sixth, seventh and 14th, respectively, in the NFL is receptions. Moreover, the Redskins and Arizona are the only teams to have three of the top 25 pass-catchers in league.
the first five weeks of the season. It is the earliest Washington has ever completed its divisional road schedule. Since the NFL adopted four four-team divisions in 2002, the Redskins have started the season 2-1 in the NFC East only one other time (2005). All four of the Redskins’ wins have come against fellow NFC foes, a total which is tied with Tampa for the most in the conference.
LONDON BRIDGING GAPS DURABLY London Fletcher has started 125 consecutive games, the sixth-longest streak among active players. This season, the Redskins’ middle linebacker is fourth in the NFC with 48 tackles (according to NFL.com).
SMITH’S SWITCH Washington’s kickoff units, led by special teams coach Danny Smith, have been among the league’s top groups thus far in 2008. The Redskins kicking team has allowed opponents an average starting field position of the 23.8-yard line, the second-best mark in the league. The Redskins return team has averaged a starting field position of the 27-yard line, the seventh-best figure in the NFC.
A CRISP START FOR CHRIS HORTON Rookie safety Chris Horton has made a quick impact just six games into his NFL career. Horton is tied for fourth in the NFL and second in the NFC with three interceptions. The rookie was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week following a week two win over New Orleans when he registered a two interceptions and a fumble recovery in his first NFL start. He was also named NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month for September. Last week against St. Louis, Horton was perhaps Washington’s best defensive player as he led the team with 12 tackles, including three for loss and many more near the line of scrimmage, and a forced fumble. For the season, Horton is third on the team with 29 tackles and has registered three interceptions, three passes defensed, one fumble recovery, one forced fumble and six special-teams tackles
SOUTHERN BOY IN WEST COAST OFFENSE In the final three weeks of September, quarterback Jason Campbell posted quarterback ratings of 108.4, 112.2, and 104.1, the first time a Redskins quarterback has had three-straight games with a passer rating higher than 100.0 since Mark Rypien did it in games 13-15 in 1991. Campbell, a native of Taylorsville, Miss., is the only quarterback in the NFL with at least 20 pass attempts who has yet to throw an interception. All other players with 65 attempts have a least two interceptions. He is the ninth-rated passer in the league and thirdmost efficient passer in the fourth quarter.
ACceLerated RECOVERY Third-year linebacker Rocky McIntosh is second on the club with 46 tackles and has also registered an NFC-high two forced fumbles. The two fumbles were forced in the first quarter of Washington victories over New Orleans and Arizona and resulted in field goals that extended Redskins leads. Cornerback Carlos Roger leads the club with 12 passes defensed, including an interception. Both McIntosh and Rogers are returning from torn anterior cruciate ligaments injuries that ended their 2007 seasons and are major reasons for the Redskins’ defensive success in 2008. Against Arizona, Rogers recovered an Edgerrin James fumble caused by McIntosh, which set up a Shaun Suisham field goal. In the second half, Rogers intercepted a Kurt Warner pass and returned it 42 yards to the Arizona 15-yard line to set up the Redskins’ game-winning touchdown. Over the last two contests, with fellow cornerback Shawn Springs battling a calf injury, Rogers has been charged with checking seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Torry Holt and dynamic rookie DeSean Jackson, who is seventh in the NFC with 433 receiving yards. Combined against Rogers and the Redskins, the pair accounted for six catches for 31 yards. In fact, over the last four games Rogers, Springs and the Redskins defense have limited Holt, Jackson, Terrell Owens and Anquan Boldin to a total of 16 catches for 127 yards.
THE WORKHORSE Clinton Portis leads the NFL with 136 carries and 643 rushing yards, while his six rushing touchdowns are second in the league. Portis has accounted for 35 first downs on the ground this season, which also leads the NFL, as do his 14 in the fourth quarter of games this season. With a 145-yard and 129-yard performances against the Eagles and the Rams, Portis has two of the top 11 single-game rushing totals in the NFL this year. AIR AND GROUND DELIVERY With Jason Campbell ranking eighth in passer rating, Clinton Portis ranking first in rushing yards and Santana Moss ranking eighth in receiving yards, the Redskins are one of three teams in the NFL, along with Dallas and San Diego, to have a top-10 passer, rusher and receiver. COOLEY CONTINUES STREAK Washington tight end Chris Cooley has caught a pass in 62 straight regular season contests, dating back to week nine of 2004. A Pro Bowl selection in 2007, Cooley ranks second among NFL tight ends in both catches (30) and receiving yards (345), behind only Dallas’ Jason Witten in both categories. WASHINGTON REDSKINS

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
CLEVELAND BROWNS HEAD COACH ROMEO CRENNEL Romeo Crennel is entering his fourth season as Cleveland Browns Head Coach and was rewarded with a two-year contract extension (thru 2011) on Jan. 29, 2008. Crennel led the Browns to 10-6 record in 2007, including a franchise-best seven consecutive home wins, and witnessed six Browns selected to the Pro Bowl. Crennel’s offense developed into a highly productive unit and ranked eighth in the NFL in total offense (5,621 net yards) and scoring (402 points). The output of net yards and scoring also ranked third best in franchise history. Crennel was named head coach of the Cleveland Browns on Feb. 8, 2005, the 11th full-time head coach in franchise history. Crennel returned to Cleveland in 2005, after serving as the Browns defensive coordinator in 2000, and along with Phil Savage helped rebuild the football operations. Crennel previously led the Browns to a respectable 6-10 record in his first year as a head coach and added a 4-12 mark in 2006. His resume includes 38 years of coaching experience, including 27 years in the NFL. In 2005, Crennel brought a 3-4 defensive scheme to Cleveland and witnessed his defense T-16th in defense (316.8 ypg) and ranked fourth in the NFL in pass defense (179.2 ypg). Prior to joining the Browns, Crennel was widely recognized as one of the top assistant coaches in the NFL. He crafted the defense for the New England Patriots and helped the Patriots win three Super Bowls (2001, 2003-04). Crennel’s defense played an integral role in the Patriots’ 24-21 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl XXXIX, as the defense forced four turnovers, put pressure on Eagles QB Donovan McNabb with four sacks and limited the Eagles running game to 45 net yards rushing. In the 2004 postseason, New England allowed only 51 points (17 points per game) in three postseason games, including a 20-3 win over Indianapolis in an AFC Divisional Playoff game, a 41-27 win at Pittsburgh in the AFC Championship Game and the 24-21 win over Philadelphia in Super Bowl XXXIX. In New England’s AFC Divisional Playoff victory over Indianapolis, the Patriots did not allow the Colts in the end zone during their 20-3 victory, marking the first time in NFL history that a team led the league in scoring during the regular season and did not score a touchdown in a playoff game. During the 2004 regular season, the Patriots ranked ninth in the NFL in total defense (310.8 ypg), sixth in run defense (98.3 ypg) and 17th in pass defense (212.5 ypg). Crennel’s defensive unit was tied for third in the NFL with 45 sacks, tied for second with 260 points allowed (16.3 ppg) on the year, allowed nine rushing TDs on the season and ranked third in the AFC in red zone defense (40.8%). The defense recorded this feat using 10 different starting lineups. In 2003, he was recognized by the Pro Football Writers of America as the NFL’s Assistant Coach of the Year. The New England defense was among the best units in NFL history, propelling the Patriots to a 15-game winning streak that culminated with a 32-29 victory over Carolina in Super Bowl XXXVIII. New England allowed a league-low and franchise-record 14.9 points per game, while also leading the league with 29 interceptions. The dominance of the defense was evident by the team’s three shutouts, equaling the franchise shutout total from the previous 17 seasons combined. The Patriots defense was at its best at home, where it allowed only 9.6 points per game and surrendered just four touchdowns in the regular WASHINGTON REDSKINS
season. During one stretch, the Patriots did not allow a touchdown on 62 consecutive opponents’ possessions at home, a streak that spanned more than five games of clock time. New England was the first team in 65 years to keep its opponent out of the end zone in four consecutive home games in a season. The Patriots defense provided some potent offense of its own, leading the NFL with six defensive touchdowns, including five interceptions returned for scores, tying a team record. Crennel returned to the New England Patriots when he was named the defensive coordinator on Bill Belichick’s staff on Feb. 1, 2001. In 2001, the defense played an integral role in propelling the Patriots to a season-ending win streak to claim the first Super Bowl title for the franchise. The 2001 Patriots surrendered just 272 points (17.0 ppg), ranking sixth in the league for fewest points allowed. In its last five regular season games, the defense surrendered just seven field goals and one touchdown. The Patriots won all five of those games and qualified for the playoffs for the first time in three years. Crennel was reunited with Belichick in 2001 as the two coaches began coaching together as assistants on Ray Perkins’ staff for the New York Giants in 1981. The 2004 season marked the 18th campaign for Crennel and Belichick together, during which time they have earned five Super Bowl titles, six conference titles and eight division titles. While with the Patriots, Crennel and Belichick have contributed to victories in Super Bowls XXXVI, XXXVIII and XXXIX, in addition to New England’s AFC title in 1996. The Patriots defense created opportunities for the offense in 2001 by recording 22 interceptions (second in the AFC, sixth in the NFL), 12 more than they had in 2000. Five of those interceptions were returned for touchdowns, setting a singleseason franchise record. In the playoffs, DB Ty Law added another interception, which he returned 47 yards for a touchdown in the 20-17 victory over the St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI. Crennel, who was the defensive line coach for the Patriots from 1993 to 1996, spent three seasons with the New York Jets (1997-99) and a season as the defensive coordinator with the Cleveland Browns (2000). During his season in Cleveland, the Browns recorded 42 sacks, a 17-sack improvement from the 1999 season. His first tenure in New England was a four-year assignment as Bill Parcells’ defensive line coach, beginning in 1993 and ending with an AFC Championship and Super Bowl XXXI appearance in January of 1997. In 1994, the Patriots qualified for the playoffs for the first time in eight years after winning their last seven games of the regular season. The defense allowed just 13.3 points per game during that seven-game stretch. In 1996, the Patriots defense allowed just 12.8 points per game in the final five contests of the regular season to propel the team back to the playoffs. Crennel began his professional coaching career in 1981 as a special assignments/special teams/defensive assistant coach with the New York Giants. He became the special teams coach in 1983 and was assigned the defensive line position in 1990, a position he coached for 14 seasons. In 12 seasons in New York (1981-92), the Giants qualified for the playoffs six times, won three division titles and two Super Bowl championships. In his first season in New York, the Giants qualified for the playoffs for the first time since 1963.

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
THE LAST TIME Redskins Fall in Cleveland, 17-13
line for a 1-yard touchdown run and a 10-3 halftime lead. In the third quarter, the Browns tied the game by taking advantage of Portis's fumble. It occurred on the Redskins' first offensive series of the second half. Portis was tackled into a pile of defenders by Browns' defensive lineman Mike Myers. The ball popped loose and it was recovered by Andra Davis. The Redskins challenged the fumble, contending that Portis was down by contact, but the ruling was upheld, costing Washington a time out. The Browns began the drive on the Redskins' 31-yard line. Garcia completed passes to tight end Steve Heiden and fullback Terrelle Smith, then found tight end Aaron Shea wide open in the right flat. Shea raced 15 yards into the end zone before a Redskins defender was able to reach him. Early in the fourth quarter, the Redskins took the lead again on a 26-yard field goal by Hall. The score was set up by a 45-yard pass from Brunell to Coles and culminated a 9-play, 80-yard drive. Holding on to a slim 13-10 lead, Washington's defense rose up and forced a three-and-out. But the offense was unable to generate any first downs to wind down the clock and the Redskins were forced to punt. Cleveland put together a solid drive, with strong running by Suggs and a 23-yard pass from Garcia to wide receiver Andre Davis that put the Browns at the Redskins' 3-yard line. Suggs burst across the goal line for a touchdown on the next play for the 17-13 advantage. The Redskins' offense had one last opportunity to drive downfield for a go-ahead score. But the drive was stopped due to Coles' fumble and Browns QB Garcia had only to kneel three times to run out the clock. Despite the fumble, Coles produced a solid game, finishing with seven catches for 122 yards. Brunell was 17-of32 passes for 192 yards and Portis logged 58 yards on 20 carries. The offensive line did not yield a sack. But the offense was unable to sustain many drives, going 1-for-11 on third-down conversions. On defense, Pierce led the way with eight tackles and safety Sean Taylor had seven tackles. Backup defensive linemen Ron Warner and Demetric Evans, playing for injured starter Phillip Daniels, were also solid, each recording a sack. Those statistics were ultimately undone by the turnovers.
BY GARY FITZGERALD Redskins.com On a game played on Oct. 3, 2004, the Redskins failed to hold on to a slim second-half lead, then were unable to mount a comeback, losing 17-13 to the Cleveland Browns at Browns Stadium. It was the Redskins' third consecutive loss. Two turnovers were costly in the game. Clinton Portis's third-quarter fumble led to the Browns' first touchdown. Late in the fourth quarter, with the offense trying to mount a comeback, wide receiver Laveranues Coles fumbled after a catch, ending the Redskins' final drive – and last chance to eke out a victory. Both defenses were solid in the early going. Washington scored first, taking advantage of a Cleveland turnover. Midway through the first quarter, the Browns were in Redskins' territory and driving for a score. Jeff Garcia completed a pass to wide receiver Quincy Morgan in the flat. Fred Smoot quickly stripped the ball from Morgan's arms and the ball bounced backward, where Antonio Pierce pounced on it for the recovery. The Redskins took over and went on a 13-play, 65-yard drive, with Mark Brunell leading the offense downfield thanks to completions to Rod Gardner and Coles. But the drive stalled at the Browns' 13-yard line and John Hall came in to kick a 31-yard field goal. The Browns responded with a drive of their own. Lee Suggs burst for a 25-yard gain to get Cleveland in Redskins' territory. Then Matt Bowen was flagged for a roughing the passer penalty, putting the Browns' in range for kicker Phil Dawson. Dawson converted a 30-yard field goal to tie the game at 3-3. A few minutes before halftime, the Redskins jumped back ahead with an impressive 12-play, 78-yard touchdown drive. On 4th and six from the Browns' 37-yard line, Washington elected to go for it instead of trying a long field goal or punting. Brunell dropped back to pass, waited in the pocket, then found Coles streaking wide open across the middle of the field. Coles shook off a Browns' tackler and burst to the 7-yard line for a 30-yard pickup. Two plays later, Portis pushed the ball across the goal

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
PORT AUTHORITY Portis’ 643 yards this season are currently tops in the NFL, while his six rushing touchdowns are tied for second in the league and for first in the NFC. He is the only NFL player averaging more than 100 yards rushing per game as he he is churning out 107.2 rushing yards a contest. Additionally, his 35 first downs lead the league and his 14 runs of 10 or more yards is second. Portis has also proven to be at his best late in the game as his 40 attempts, 185 rushing yards, three rushing touchdowns and 14 rushing first downs in the fourth quarter this season are all NFL highs. His rushing first down total is twice as many as any other player in the NFC and four more than any other NFL player. Additionally, Portis is one of only six players in league history to average at least 110.0 scrimmage yards per game (minimum 80 games). The six players to average at least 110.0 scrimmage yards per game are either still active or members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Since entering the National Football League in 2002, Clinton Portis has established himself as one of the premier running backs in football. With 643 yards on 136 carries this season, Portis currently ranks seventh in career rushing yards among active players with 8,358 and third in rushing touchdowns with 69. His 92.9 rushing yards per game is second among active players with at least 20 games played, trailing only LaDainian Tomlinson’s 94.5yard average, and his 4.5 yards per carry average ranks fifth among league running backs with at least 750 career carries.

Portis is also rapidly establishing his place in Redskins history as he already ranks fourth in club annals in both rushing attempts and yards, and third in rushing touchdowns, in just his fifth season with the club. With 617 more rushing yards in 2008, which would give him more than 1,250 yards for the sixth time in seven professional seasons, Portis would pass Stephen Davis and Larry Brown into second place in Redskins history in rushing yards. This season, Portis has already passed Brown and Terry Allen to move into third place in rushing touchdowns in Redskins history with 40. With five more, he would also tie Stephen Davis for second place all-time in club history. Yards

LONDON CALLING
HITS KEEP ON COMING
Redskins linebacker London Fletcher earned the nickname “Bam Bam” as a child because of his fondness for the Flintstones cartoon and his propensity to ransack his home. In like manner, Fletcher has terrorized opponents over the last 11 seasons as one of the NFL’s most consistent and productive defensive players. Fletcher has continued that level of play this season as leads the Redskins and is fourth in the NFC in tackles. Also, Fletcher has now opened 125 straight league contests, a figure which ranks sixth among active players.
It took just one practice for LaRon Landry to make an immediate impression on Pro Football Hall of Fame Head Coach John Madden. Just two days prior to the Redskins’ preseason finale against Jacksonville, Landry - who missed the previous four preseason games with a left hamstring strain - practiced for the first time in more than month. The secondyear safety did not miss a step exhibiting his trademark ball-hawking ability and outstanding range that day in practice as Madden proclaimed him to be “the fastest player on the field.” As a rookie in 2007, Landry recorded 97 tackles, 1.5 sacks and one fumble recovery en route to being named to the NFL All-Rookie Defensive Team. He became the first Redskins rookie defensive player to start all 16 regular season games since Champ Bailey did so in 1999 and concluded his first National Football League campaign with two interceptions in the playoff contest at Seattle last January. Recognized as one of the rising stars in the National Football League, Landry compiled seven tackles, one pass defensed and a half-sack in the regular season opener against the New York Giants. His performance prompted Madden, who was broadcasting the game for NBC in front of a nationally-televised audience, to laud the Redskins’ top pick (sixth overall) in the 2007 NFL Draft: “This guy is going to be a superstar in this league…and before it is all over he is going to be a very special player.” In the Redskins’ home opener in week two, Landry faced his childhood team – the New Orleans Saints and led the Redskins to a 29-24 win with four tackles and two passes defensed, including a touchdown-saving deflection of a Drew Brees attempt to Devery Henderson in the fourth quarter. In last week’s game against St. Louis, Landry recorded four tackles, three passes defensed and a fumble recovery. Landry, whose brother Dawan is a safety for the Baltimore Ravens, followed that up with seven tackles and a pass defensed in the Redskins’ week three win over the Arizona Cardinals. It is safe to say that the 23-year-old Landry’s transition from from strong safety to free safety this season has gone smoothly.

Last season, his first in the nation’s capital, the 5-foot10, 245-pound Fletcher was named a first-alternate to the Pro Bowl after starting all 17 of the team’s games and leading the Redskins with 164 tackles. Last year also marked the ninth straight in which he recorded at least 100 tackles, dating back to 1999 when he was in his second season with the St. Louis Rams. That streak is topped only by Tampa Bay’s Derrick Brooks and Kansas City’s Donnie Edwards, who have reached the plateau in 12 consecutive campaigns. Fletcher anchored the Rams’ defense from his middle linebacker spot in 1999, leading the team in tackles with 138. While St. Louis’ offense received much of the attention on the team’s way to winning Super Bowl XXXIV, the defense ranked sixth in the league overall and first against the run. Fletcher is one of three current Redskins players to have been a part of a Super Bowl winner. Fletcher enjoyed four seasons in St. Louis, leading the Rams in tackles from 1999-2001, before joining Buffalo from 2002-06. He led the Bills in tackles all five seasons and continued that streak last year in Washington. Among active players Fletcher ranks fifth with 1,599 career tackles behind Derrick Brooks, Ray Lewis, Zach Thomas and Donnie Edwards. In fact, since the start of this decade, no player has amassed more tackles than Fletcher.

WATCHING THE BLIND SIDE
On the season Chris Cooley ranks second among NFL tight ends with 30 receptions for 351 yards and 18 first downs, trailing on Dallas’ Jason Witten in all three categories. Additionally, Cooley and Witten are tied for the most receptions of 25 or more yards among tight ends with four apiece. In addition to making his mark as one of the most productive players at his position in Redskins history, Cooley has established himself as one the NFL’s premier tight ends. His 224 catches and 2,639 receiving yards since the start of the 2005 season both rank fourth among tight ends over that span, trailing the totals of Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten and Antonio Gates. His 22 touchdowns are second among tight ends over the last three seasons (Gates). Since entering the league in 2004, Cooley also ranks second to Gates in touchdowns among tight ends with 28.
Since Redskins left tackle Chris Samuels entered the league in 2000, the Alabama product has embedded himself as the team’s franchise left tackle. The No. 3 overall pick in the 2000 NFL Draft has proven to be a consistent and durable anchor of the Redskins’ offensive line. Samuels has started every game since the beginning of the 2004 season and has missed only four contests in his eight-year career. Since he joined the Redskins’ offensive line in 2000, the unit’s 280 sacks allowed is the thirdfewest total in the NFC, behind Green Bay (199) and the New York Giants (271). The 6-foot-5, 317-pound Samuels made his fifth trip to the Pro Bowl following the 2007 season, his third straight selection. That total ranks third among current NFL tackles behind only 11-year veterans Walter Jones and Orlando Pace, who have both gone eight times.

Cooley earned his first Pro Bowl berth following the 2007 season. In his fourth year out of Utah State, Cooley led the team in receptions for the second straight season with 66, and also registered a team and career-high eight touchdown grabs. Cooley’s 786 receiving yards were second on the club behind Santana Moss’ 808. Also in 2007, the 6-foot-3, 249-pound Cooley started all 16 regular season games for the fourth straight season. He has been active in all 70 of the Redskins’ contests since joining the team in 2004 and has made a reception in 62 consecutive regular-season games. In his second NFL season, in 2005, Cooley set the club record for receptions by a tight end in a single year when he caught 71 passes for 774 yards. Cooley, who is the first tight end in NFL history to catch at least six touchdowns in his first four seasons, has also demonstrated his speed and athletic ability to run with the ball as evidenced by his 1,369 yards after catch (YAC), the most among NFL tight ends since the beginning of 2005.

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
TAYLOR MADE ADDITION The Redskins traded with the Miami Dolphins for sixtime Pro Bowl linebacker/defensive end Jason Taylor on July 20, 2008, bringing one of the NFL’s most feared defenders to Washington. Taylor joins Andre Carter to form one of the most dangerous pass-rushing tandems in the league. Taylor and Carter are one of two sets of current NFL teammates who both registered double-digit sack totals in 2007. Dallas’ DeMarcus Ware and Greg Ellis is the other. Before missing a game at the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 28, following a necessary medical procedure on his left calf to remove blood and avoid possible nerve damage on Sept. 22, Taylor had opened 133 consecutive games, dating back to 1999, which was the seventh-longest streak among active players. The 6-foot-6, 245-pound Taylor has been one of the National Football League’s premier defensive players for the
past 11+ seasons. The Pittsburgh native has been selected to six Pro Bowls (2000, 2002, 2004-07), including the last four in a row. He recorded his first sack as a Redskin on Sept. 14 against the Saints, the 118th of his career, which is the most among all active NFL players and ranks 14th all-time in NFL history.

Additionally, Taylor’s 101.5 sacks this decade are a league high, 12.5 more than Michael Strahan’s 89, and 24 more than any other active player (Leonard Little, 77.5). Taylor also has demonstrated a propensity for getting his hands on the football as his 41 forced fumbles are eight more than any other current NFL player (Dwight Freeney 33). He has also recovered 26 fumbles, five of which he returned for touchdowns, tied for the most in NFL history, while his eight career touchdowns are the most by an NFL defensive lineman since the 1970 merger. Originally a third-round draft choice out of the University of Akron in 1997, Taylor was named the 2006 Associated Press NFL Defensive Player of the Year and the 2007 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year. In 2007, Taylor recorded 11 sacks, his sixth season with double-digit sacks. He also logged four forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries and an interception, which he returned 36 yards for a touchdown. In 2006, when Taylor was recognized as the league’s best defender, he notched 62 tackles, 13.5 sacks, 11 passes defensed, 10 forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and two interceptions, both of which he returned for touchdowns.

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
JASON CAMPBELL
GATHER NO MOSS
Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell is continuing his progression under Head Coach Jim Zorn, while learning of the nuisances of the West Coast Offense. Overall for the season, Campbell has completed 115of-179 pass attempts (64.2%) for 1,262 yards and six touchdowns and no interceptions for a passer rating of 96.2. He is the only quarterback with at least twenty passing attempts to have not thrown an interception. Campbell has now gone 201 pass attempts without an interception, which broke Joe Theismann’s team record of 161 straight attempts without an interception set in 1983. In fact, Campbell has zero turnovers in 2008, while every other NFL player who has attempted 65 passes has thrown at least two interceptions. Campbell ranks eighth among NFL quarterbacks with a 96.2 passer rating, ninth with 115 completions and 12th with 1,262 passing yards. A true test of a quarterback comes in the fourth quarter, and this has been when Campbell has been at his best. Campbell has displayed poise, accuracy and the ability to make the big play in the final stanza. He ranks second in the NFC and fifth in the NFL in fourth quarter passing efficiency as he has completed 31-of-44 passes (70.5%) for 426 yards and two touchdowns and no interceptions for a passer rating of 116.3 rating. He has guided the Redskins to 44 fourth-quarter points, the eight-highest total in the NFL. His teammates are feeding off his energy: “Jason has been excellent,” said Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss. “I am loving the way we are throwing the ball around and Jason is making the most of his opportunities. He is really thriving and making some exceptional throws.”
With 29 catches for 448 yards and three touchdowns through six contests, Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss is off to one of the fastest starts of his eight-year NFL career, surpassed only by the 38 catches for 743 yards and five touchdowns he amassed in 2005 when he went on the Pro Bowl. Moss is tied for eighth in the NFL with 448 receiving yards and is fourth among NFC wide receivers with 448 receiving yards. His three touchdown catches are tied for 10th in the NFL and sixth in the NFC. With a touchdown in the first three weeks of the season, Moss extended a streak dating back to last season of catching a scoring pass in six consecutive games, including playoffs. It tied a Redskins record held by Hall of Famer Bobby Mitchell, who did it in 1964, and is the second-longest streak of Moss’s career behind the seven straight games he did it from Oct. 12-Nov. 23, 2003. His touchdown receptions in weeks two and three against New Orleans and Arizona, each came in the fourth quarter and proved to be the deciding margin in both Redskins victories.
2008 NFL STANDINGS
INJURY UPDATE Linebacker/defensive end Jason Taylor returned to action last week after missing the previous two games after undergoing a necessary medical procedure on his left calf on Sept. 22 to remove blood and avoid possible nerve damage.

Tackle Stephon Heyer has been battling a sprained left shoulder and was inactive for the last two contests. Rookie wide receiver Malcolm Kelly (left knee) and and safety Reed Doughty (back) also missed the Rams game last week. Running back Ladell Betts injured his left knee against the Rams and is expected to miss this week’s contest.

WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
POSITION-BY-POSITION BREAKDOWN QUARTERBACKS (3), RETURNING STARTERS (1) Starter Jason Campbell has completed 97-of-153 passes (64.2%) for 1262 yards with six touchdowns and zero interceptions for a passer rating of 96.2. In Week Two, in a 29-24 victory over New Orleans, Campbell hit on 24-of-36 for 321 yards and a career-long 67-yard touchdown pass to Santana Moss with 3:29 remaining in the game, which proved to be the winning margin. In the fourth quarter, he rallied the Redskins from an 11-point deficit by completing 8-of-9 passes (his last eight passing attempts) for 165 yards and one touchdown with a passer rating of 155.8. Veteran Todd Collins serves as the backup. In the preseason, Collins completed 33-of-47 (70.2%) for 260 yards with one touchdown and one interception. Collins stepped in for an injured Campbell in the team’s 13th game last year (vs. Chicago, 12/6) and led the Redskins to four consecutive wins and a playoff berth, despite not having started a game in 10 years. His performance against the Bears earned Collins NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors after he completed 15-of-20 passing attempts for 224 yards, two touchdowns and a career-high quarterback rating of 144.6. The Redskins added depth at the position in the offseason by selecting Colt Brennan in the sixth round (168th overall) of the 2008 NFL Draft. Brennan enjoyed a decorated collegiate career at Hawaii, breaking 31 NCAA records in his three years. He finished his career 1,115-of1,584 for 14,193 yards, with 131 touchdowns and 42 interceptions, while playing in 38 games with 35 starts. Brennan made a strong entrance into the National Football League this past preseason, amassing a 109.9 preseason rating by going 36-of-53 for 411 yards with three touchdowns and zero interceptions. RUNNING BACKS (4), RETURNING STARTERS (2) Clinton Portis has carried 136 times for 643 yards and six touchdowns thus far this season, his fifth with the Redskins and seventh overall in what has been a highly-productive career. Portis crossed the 100-yard barrier for the third straight week, running the ball 21 times for 129 yards and two touchdowns against the Rams. Portis’ 643 rushing yards are tops in the NFL. In week five, Portis carried the ball 29 times for 145 yards and one touchdown against an Eagle defense that was ranked number one in the NFL against the run. In week four, a 26-24 win at Dallas, Portis ran the ball 21 times for 121 yards. Portis holds a Redskins record with 22 100-yard rushing games. Ladell Betts serves as the primary backup to Portis and has rushed 38 times for 156 yards. In week six, Betts amassed 32 yards on seven carries. Betts is in his seventh season with the Redskins after playing in all 16 regular season games and one postseason contest in 2007. In 2006, when he started nine contests for an injured Portis, Betts racked up 1,154 yards on the ground and another 445 through the air. Fullback Mike Sellers is in his ninth NFL season and WASHINGTON REDSKINS
16
eighth with the Redskins following a 2007 campaign that saw him play in 14 games, with 12 starts. A solid run blocker, reliable pass-catching target and short-yardage runner, Sellers finished last season with 26 rushes for 78 yards and two touchdowns, along with 17 receptions for 117 yards and one touchdown, and nine special teams tackles. Sellers’ bone-jarring blocks have helped fellow back Clinton Portis become the league’s leading rusher. In his seventh season, Rock Cartwright provides a valuable third option at running back. In 2007, Cartwright played in 15 regular season games (inactive at New England on 10/28) and appeared in one postseason contest. In 91 career games, he has rushed for 647 rushing yards on 146 carries (4.4 avg.) for six touchdowns, and has accumulated 31 receptions for 320 yards (10.3 avg.) and one touchdown. WIDE RECEIVERS (5), RETURNING STARTERS (2) Santana Moss leads the Redskins with 29 receptions for 443 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winning 67-yard reception against New Orleans. With a 53yard reception at Dallas, Moss secured the 15th reception of at least 50 yards in his career. After catching a 12-yard touchdown pass from Jason Campbell in the opener and a 17-yard touchdown pass against Arizona, Moss registered a TD catch in six consecutive contests, including playoffs, tying a franchise record set by Bobby Mitchell in 1964. Moss is currently ranked eighth in the NFL in receiver yards and is tied for seventh in the NFC in receptions. Alongside Moss is seven-year veteran Antwaan Randle El, who is in his third season with the Redskins. Randle El has added 26 receptions on the year for 306 yards and one touchdwon. Randle El led all Redskins receivers in week 6, grabbing five passes for 87 yards, including a 29-yarder. He has also completed two passes on the year, one an 18yard touchdown to Chris Cooley against the Eagles. In his career Randle El has completed 19 of 23 passes for four touchdowns and zero interceptions. Randle El has rushed 77 times for 431 yards in his career. Twelve-year veteran James Thrash adds experience and depth to the group. Thrash registered his first touchdown catch of the season in the 26-24 victory in Dallas. Thrash has appeared in 152 career games, and owns 286 career receptions for 3,600 yards (12.6 avg.) and 22 touchdowns. Adding a spark to the receiving corps is top draft choice Devin Thomas, who was chosen 34th overall. In his final year at Michigan State, Thomas set a school record with 79 receptions, led the Big Ten with 1,260 receiving yards, led the Spartans with eight touchdowns, and established Michigan State records with 2,590 all-purpose yards. He made his NFL debut against the Giants in the season opener and caught one pass for five yards. Thomas added a 16-yard rush against the Cardinals. Fellow second-round draft pick Malcolm Kelly (51st overall) had arthroscopic left knee surgery on August 5 and played in his first contest against the Saints, registerWEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
ing one catch for six yards. TIGHT ENDS (3), RETURNING STARTERS (1) Fresh off his first Pro Bowl selection, Chris Cooley is in his fifth year with the Redskins looking to repeat his performance from last season. In week 5 against the Eagles, Cooley exploded for 8 catches and 109 yards, including an 18-yard touchdown grab. In the win over the Saints Cooley had five catches for 72 yards, including a key 23-yard reception in the fourth quarter with the Redskins facing 2nd-and-22 from their own six-yard line. Washington eventually scored a touchdown on the drive to pull within two points. Cooley followed that up with a 7-catch, 75yard performance in the victory over Arizona. Cooley added four catches and 28 yards in a divisional matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. Through six weeks, Cooley has 30 catches for 345 yards and one touchdown. Reliable nine-year veteran Todd Yoder is in his third season with the Redskins as the second tight end. He caught a two-yard touchdown pass from Jason Campbell against Arizona. In his career, Yoder has appeared in 104 career games with 12 starts during which time he has hauled in 39 career receptions for 408 yards (10.5 avg.) and five touchdowns. The Redskins added a dynamic athlete at the tight end position with the addition of second-round draft pick Fred Davis, the 48th overall selection, who finished his career at Southern California with 117 receptions for 1,408 yards and 13 touchdowns. In 2007, Davis started 13 games as a senior and caught 62 passes for 881 yards and eight touchdowns, all of which were team highs. Davis won the 2007 Mackey Award, given annually to the most outstanding tight end in college football. He made his NFL debut against the Saints and registered one catch for six yards. OFFENSIVE LINE (9), RETURNING STARTERS (5) After three games with the same starting lineup to open the season, 10-year veteran Jon Jansen stepped into the starting lineup at right tackle and helped the offensive line pave the way for Clinton Portis’ 21 carry 121yard performance. Having started 115 of 118 career games with the Redskins, Jansen has been with the team for the top three single-season rushing performances in club history (Clinton Portis, 1,516 in 2005; Stephen Davis, 1,432 in 2001; Stephen Davis, 1,405 in 1999), and is the longest-tenured member of the club. Jansen and the rest of the line helped pave the way for 203 rushing yards against the Philadelphia run defense that was previously ranked first in the NFL. Their blocking has Clinton Portis sitting atop the NFL in rushing yards. Left tackle Chris Samuels earned his fifth Pro Bowl selection following the 2007 season and anchors the unit. Veteran Pete Kendall is the left guard and provides the offensive line with stability and toughness. Kendall, who has started 177-of-178 career games, came to the Redskins on August 24, 2007 and immediately made an impact, helping RB Clinton Portis rush for 1,262 yards on the year. Randy Thomas is in his 10th NFL season, and fifth with the Redskins, as the team’s right guard. In his career, Thomas has started 130 career games, and has helped pave the way for such notable rushers as Clinton Portis WASHINGTON REDSKINS
17
and Curtis Martin. In 2005, Thomas was part of the Redskins offensive line that assisted Portis in setting a club record with 1,516 rushing yards and nine 100-yard games. Center Casey Rabach is in his fourth season with the Redskins and eighth overall, after coming off a 2007 campaign in which he played in and started 15 regular season games at center. He missed one game with an injured groin vs. Arizona, 10/21. Rabach has appeared in 95 regular season contests with 76 starts, along with four postseason games with three starts. Right tackle Stephon Heyer had a breakout rookie season as an undrafted free agent in 2007, playing in 12 regular season games with five starts. He was just one of two undrafted free agents to make the Redskins opening day roster and provided depth at both tackle spots. Eleven-year veteran Jason Fabini served as a long-time NFL starter and is his second season with the Redskins as a valuable reserve. Fabini saw time at left tackle against the Rams after Chris Samuels left the game with a knee injury. In 2007, Fabini played in all 16 regular-season games with 13 starts (most since 2004) and one postseason contest. He proved his versatility by playing guard for the injured Randy Thomas after having played tackle for most of his career. In his career, he has played in 148 regular season games, with 127 starts. Selected in the third round (96th overall) of the 2008 Draft by the Redskins, Chad Rinehart comes to the team after an impressive career at Northern Iowa. He appeared in 40 games with 37 starts while at Northern Iowa, earning consensus All-America and All-Gateway conference firstteam honors in 2007. Justin Geisinger, a versatile lineman, who can play center, guard and tackle, spent the majority of the 2007 season on the Redskins’ practice squad. He has been active in all five contests, and saw limited action against Dallas and Philadelphia. DEFENSIVE LINE (10), RETURNING STARTERS (3) The Redskins lost two players for the season from this group on the first day of training camp in returning starting defensive end Phillip Daniels and reserve Alex Buzbee. The help fill the void, Washington traded with the Miami Dolphins for six-time Pro Bowl linebacker/defensive end Jason Taylor. The 2006 Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year leads all active players with 118 sacks, which also ranks 14th in league history. Taylor recorded a sack of Drew Brees in the Redskins victory over the Saints, his first as a Redskin. In 2007, his second year with the team, right end Andre Carter led all defensive linemen in sacks (10.5) and tackles (67). He became the first player to record 10 or more sacks (10.5 sacks) in a single season since LB LaVar Arrington had 11.0 sacks in 2002. Carter recorded a halfsack of Eli Manning in the season opener and a half-sack of Kurt Warner in week three in a victory over Arizona. Starting at left defensive tackle in his ninth NFL season is Cornelius Griffin, who addition to being a run-stuffer, registered a sack against New Orleans. Kedric Golston, who won a preseason battle with Anthony Montgomery, has started all five games this season at the other defensive tackle slot and registered a sack against Arizona (9/21). Montgomery, who has seen action in each game as WEEK SEVEN VS. CLEVELAND BROWNS
part of the defensive-line rotation, registered 47 total tackles, 35 solo tackles and two fumble recoveries as a starter in 2007. He picked up his first sack of the season in week 6 against St. Louis, grabbing Marc Bulger for a 3yard loss. A quartet of talented defensive ends adds depth to the position. Demetric Evans stepped in for an injured Jason Taylor and helped hold Cowboys running back Marion Barber to 26 yards rushing (9/28). The next week, Evans and the rest of the defensive line held Eagles running back Brian Westbrook to 33 yards rushing. The Redskins acquired former first-round pick Erasmus James in a trade with the Vikings on May 27, 2008. James was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform List on Aug. 11 after recovering from a knee injury that ended his 2007 season. He is reunited with Redskins defensive line coach John Palermo, who tutored him at the University of Wisconsin. Chris Wilson made his NFL debut last season after spending two years in the Canadian Football League. Wilson recorded a sack of Eli Manning in the Redskins’ season opener, giving him four in a three-game stretch, including playoffs. The Redskins selected Rob Jackson in the seventh round (242nd overall) to add competition at the defensive end spot and responded with two sacks in the preseason to tie for the team lead. Lorenzo Alexander is a versatile player who provides depth along the defensive line and has seen action on offense in goal-line packages. LINEBACKERS (6), RETURNING STARTERS (3) The defense is anchored by starting middle linebacker London Fletcher. In his first year with the Redskins in 2007, Fletcher served as the captain of the defense and led the team with 164 tackles (94 solo). For his efforts, he was named a Pro Bowl alternate and the team’s Defensive MVP. The durable and consistent Fletcher has logged at least 100 tackles in nine consecutive NFL seasons. With 50 tackles through six games, Fletcher is on his way to that mark again in 2008. Fletcher and the rest of the linebackers turned in an impressive performance against St. Louis, holding Stephen Jackson to 79 rushing yards. Starting strongside linebacker Marcus Washington battled injuries during the 2007 season and finished with 59 tackles (37 solo), five sacks, one interception, and one forced fumble. He was the recipient of the Ed Block Courage Award, given to the player who inspires others by overcoming injury and adversity. Washington missed the last two preseason games with a left hip flexor strain, but was in the starting lineup for the season opener at the New York Giants as he registered six tackles, including one for a three-yard loss. He missed the Saints game with a hamstring injury, but returned against Arizona and logged six tackles. Washington delivered his best performance of the season in week 6, registering eight tackles and forcing a fumble which set up a Clinton Portis touchdown. Rocky McIntosh returned from a torn ACL to re-claim his starting weakside linebacker spot in the season opener, recording nine tackles. In 2007, McIntosh set career highs in games played (14), starts (13), tackles (105), solo tackles (70), sacks (3), forced fumbles (3) and fumble recoveries (1). McIntosh forced a key fumble from Jeremy WASHINGTON REDSKINS
Shockey in the Saints game to stop a New Orleans drive at the Washington 28-yard line. He repeated that feat against Arizona when he forced an Edgerrin James fumble at the end of the first quarter. McIntosh’s two forced fumbles tie him for forth in the NFL. After five games, McIntosh’s 40 tackles are second on the team. Backup middle linebacker H.B. Blades made his first career start against the Saints in place of an injured Marcus Washington and responded with six tackles, including one for loss, and a pass defensed. He filled in for Washington again in week 5, recording 4 tackles and helping the Redskins defense hold the Eagles offense to 10 points. Blades appeared in all 16 games in 2007 and saw considerable action on special teams. He posted 16 tackles on defense and 13 special team stops, recording a career-high four tackles at the New York Giants in Week 15 (12/16), and tied his career high in tackles the next week at Minnesota (12/23). Khary Campbell is a skilled special teams player who adds depth to the linebacker position. In 2007, Campbell led the club for the third straight year with 38 special teams tackles and has amassed 146 special teams stops over the last three seasons. Campbell aggravated a thigh injury prior to kickoff of the opener and missed the first two contests. He returned against the Cardinals and registered four special teams tackles. Fourth-year pro Alfred Fincher was signed on July 31, 2008 after being released by Detroit, where he had signed this past offseason as an unrestricted free agent. Fincher had a team-high eight tackles and two tackles for loss in the preseason finale against Jacksonville, earning his spot on the team. Fincher has seen action in three games, registering four special teams tackles. DEFENSIVE BACKS (10), RETURNING STARTERS (4) At cornerback, starter Shawn Springs was forced to sit out the season opener with a calf injury, but returned against the Saints and led the team with seven tackles. In the Redskins’ third contest against Arizona, Springs was instrumental in limiting Cardinals wide receiver Anquan Boldin to three catches for 25 yards. The next week, Springs held Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens in check before leaving the game with a strained calf. Last season, Springs ranked second on the squad in interceptions (four) and fourth in tackles (72). Carlos Rogers, a first-round pick in 2005, is coming off of a right ACL tear that caused him to spend the final nine games of the season on injured reserve. Rogers has started all five contests thus far and against Arizona, recovered a fumble and made the pivotal play in the contest when he intercepted a Kurt Warner pass and returned it 42 yards to the Cardinals’ 15-yard line to set up the game-winning score. Against Dallas, Rogers recorded nine tackles and deflected two passes. Rogers continued his lockdown coverage against St. Louis, breaking up four passes. Last season, safety LaRon Landry became the first rookie defensive player to start all 16 regular season games for the Redskins since Champ Bailey in 1999. He finished his rookie campaign with 97 tackles (62 solo), 1.5 sacks and one fumble recovery while being named to the NFL All-Rookie Defensive Team, as well as being selected

as a third alternate to the Pro Bowl. A hamstring injury kept Landry out of action the entire preseason, but he returned to the starting lineup in the season opener against the Giants. He recorded four tackles and two passes defensed against the Saints in week two and followed that up with seven tackles and a pass defensed against Arizona. In week six, Landry scooped up a fumble which set up a 3-yard Clinton Portis touchdown. Reed Doughty started the opener at the other safety spot and recorded six tackles. He was inactive for the Saints contest with a stomach virus, but returned to the starting lineup against Arizona. Doughty also sat out backto-back games against the Eagles and Rams with an injury to his back. In his second season in 2007, Doughty started in six of the last seven games, leading the team in tackles in each of his starts, and totaled 51 stops and half-sack for the season. Cornerback Fred Smoot made his return to the Redskins in 2007 after a two-year hiatus with the Minnesota Vikings. He tallied 57 tackles (50 solo) and one interception for the season. He started in place of Springs in the season opener and registered the Redskins’ first interception of 2008. Smoot was called upon again in week five to fill in for an injured Springs. Smoot and the rest of the secondary limited Donovan McNabb to just 196 yards passing. Chris Horton, who was selected in the seventh round (249th overall) out of UCLA, made a huge impact in his first career start, against New Orleans on Sept 14. Horton registered four tackles, two interceptions and a fumble recovery. In doing so, he became the first player with two interceptions and a fumble recovery in his first career start since Liffort Hobley on Oct. 11, 1987, the first rookie with two interceptions and a fumble recovery in his first career start since Paul Tripoli on Oct. 4, 1987, the first Redskins player with two interceptions and a fumble recovery in same game since Anthony Washington on Dec. 4, 1983, and the first Redskins rookie with two interceptions and a fumble recovery in same game since Brig Owens on Nov. 27, 1966 Horton added another interception during a 26-24 win in Dallas. Horton is currently tied for fourth in the NFL in interceptions. Leigh Torrence provides excellent depth in the secondary and is a key member of the special teams units. Torrence made a key play in a week three win over Arizona when he deflected a Kurt Warner pass that was intended for Steve Breaston that was intercepted by Rogers and set up the game-winning touchdown. Torrence stepped in against Dallas after Shawn Springs and Fred Smoot left the game with injuries. The Redskins drafted Justin Tryon in the fourth round (124th overall) of the 2008 NFL Draft. Tryon earned second-team All-Pac-10 honors at Arizona State last year. Kareem Moore, whom the Redskins selected in the sixth round (180th overall), started 25 of 39 career games at Nichols Sate, recording 181 tackles (114 solo), five interceptions, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. Moore was inactive for the first two contests with a hamstring strain, but returned to action in the third game against Arizona and registered a special teams tackle. Moore saw increased action against Dallas, registering a tackle. WASHINGTON REDSKINS
Second-year safety Justin Hamilton joined the Redskins as a free agent on May 30, 2008. He played in 10 games for Cleveland as a rookie in 2006 and went to training camp with Browns before being released after training camp. SPECIAL TEAMS Coming off a breakthrough year, Shaun Suisham aims to continue his kicking success in his third season with the Redskins. Through six weeks, he has made 12-of-15 field goals (80%). Suisham came up big against the Eagles, hitting all three of his field goal attempts, including a 50yarder. Suisham helped kick the Redskins to victory in Dallas completing all four of his field goal attempts. In his first season as a full-time kicker, in 2007, Suisham connected on 29-of-35 field goals, for an 82.9 percent accuracy rate, and tallied 116 points, all of which were career highs. That point total marked the 10th-most in singleseason in club history. Sixth-round draft pick (168th overall) Durant Brooks won a preseason punting battle with incumbent Derrick Frost for the Redskins’ punting duties. Brooks comes off a record-setting career at Georgia Tech that saw him win the Ray Guy Award as a senior, given to the nation’s most outstanding punter. Brooks broke the NCAA record over two seasons with 57 punts traveling at least 50 yards, and his 45.3 yards per punt is the highest career average in Atlantic Coast Conference history. One of the NFL’s best and most consistent long snappers, Ethan Albright, is in his eighth season with the Redskins (14th NFL season) after earning his first Pro Bowl berth in 2007. He has appeared in all 16 regular season games for the past 12 seasons (Buffalo, 1996-2000; Washington, 2001-2007), and all five contests this season for a total of 207 consecutive games played. Albright is the oldest player on the Redskins roster at the age of 37. Rock Cartwright serves as the primary kick returner.In the season opener, Cartwright returned five kickoffs for 145 yards (29.0 avg.), including a 50-yarder, the thirdlongest of his career. He followed that up with three returns for 76 yards against the Saints. In 2007, Cartwright played in 15 regular season games in 2007 and totaled 52 kickoff returns for 1,339 yards (25.8 avg.) and added 36 special teams tackles. In his seventh season, Cartwright ranks fourth all-time in club history in kickoff return yards (3,614). His 2006 kickoff return yardage total of 1,541 bested Brian Mitchell’s previous team high of 1,478 in 1994. Antwaan Randle El is once again handling the punt return duties after finishing with 34 returns for 209 yards in 2007. Over the span of his six-year NFL career he has totaled 258 punt returns for 2,261 yards and five touchdowns. In week five, Randle El registered his longest return of the season, a 28-yarder against the Eagles. The Redskins also have plenty of other options when it comes to return duties. Veteran James Thrash has returned 123 kickoffs for 2,802 yards (22.8 avg.) and one touchdown, and 42 punts for 418 yards (9.9 avg.) throughout his career. Providing depth at kick returner is running back Ladell Betts, who enters the season ranked seventh in club history in kickoff return yards (2,033), and wide receiver Santana Moss provides an explosive spark on special teams when needed.

Following a Rock Cartwright 50-yard kickoff return to the New York 45-yard line, the Redskins drove the length of the field in six plays and 1:47, culminated by a 12yard touchdown pass from Jason Campbell to Santana Moss on third-and-11. Campbell completed 2-of-3 on the drive for 25 yards, while Clinton Portis carried three times for 10 yards and drew a face mask penalty, which tacked on 10 yards. The Redskins defense stiffened in the second half, holding New York scoreless and limiting the Giants to 113 yards, while registering two sacks and a Fred Smoot interception. Chris Wilson (1), who has four sacks in the team’s last three games, including playoffs, Andre Carter (0.5) and LaRon Landry (0.5) accounted for the sacks. The Washington offense gained 158 second-half yards, but could not convert them into any points. On the night, the Redskins converted 3of-13 third-down attempts, while the Giants were successful on 7-of-14, including 5-of-8 in the first half. London Fletcher’s 17 tackles led the defense, which was playing without starting cornerback Shawn Springs (calf) and was on the field for 35:43 of the contest. Offensively, Portis totaled 84 yards on 23 carries and Antwaan Randle El caught seven passes for 73 yards. Moss finished with five catches for 37 yards and the touchdown, his fourth straight contest, including playoffs, with a touchdown reception. TEAM NYG NYG NYG NYG WAS

REDSKINS 29, SAINTS 24 The Washington Redskins won for the sixth time in their last seven home openers with a come-from-behind 29-24 victory over the New Orleans Saints for Head Coach Jim Zorn’s first NFL victory. In the first half the Redskins offense drove the field effectively on its first five possessions, but could not find the end zone and managed just five Shaun Suisham field goal attempts, of which three were successful. New Orleans got going on its fourth possession after recovering an Antwaan Randle El fumbled punt. At the Redskins 27-yard line. Pierre Thomas’ one-yard run gave the Saints a 7-6 lead. Following Suisham’s third field goal of the half, New Orleans drove 59 yards on seven plays to the Washington 31, which set up a Martin Gramatica 49-yard field goal at the end of the half to give New Orleans a 10-9 lead. The Saints opened the second half with a touchdown drive capped by a 19-yard pass from Brees to Robert Meachem. The Redskins answered with a Clinton Portis nine-yard scoring scamper. The two-point conversion attempt failed. With the Saints leading 17-15, New Orleans’ Reggie Bush turned the last play of the third quarter into a 55-yard punt return to give his team a 24-15 lead. The Redskins forced a Saints punt with 10:36 to go in the fourth quarter and on the ensuing possession marched 82 yards on eight plays to pull within two of the lead. After forcing another New Orleans punt, the Redskins attacked right away. On the first play of the drive from their own 33-yard line, Campbell launched a 67-yard touchdown pass to Santana Moss for what proved to be the winning margin.

REDSKINS 24, CARDINALS 17 The Washington Redskins won for the second straight week at FedExField by defeating the Arizona Cardinals 2417. Washington (2-1) jumped out to an early 7-0 lead when it scored a touchdown on its opening drive of the contest for the first time in nine games, dating back to Nov. 18, 2007. Quarterback Jason Campbell completed all six of his passes for 37 yards and also added a 16-yard rush on the drive, which was capped by a three-yard run by Clinton Portis. That touchdown scamper tied Portis with Terry Allen for the third-most rushing touchdowns in the team history with 38. On the final play of the first quarter, Redskins linebacker Rocky McIntosh forced a fumble from Arizona running back Edgerrin James, which was recovered by Carlos Rogers at the Cardinals’ 34-yard line. It was the second straight contest in which McIntosh has forced a fumble. Shaun Suisham kicked a 48-yard field goal four plays later to give the home team a 10-0 advantage. Following punts by both teams, the Cardinals (2-1) took over at their own 16 with 9:03 to go in the half and traveled 84 yards on 11 plays over 6:20 and cut the lead to 10-7 on a Kurt Warner to Anquan Boldin four-yard touchdown completion. Tight end Jerheme Urban completed an 18-yard pass to Tim Hightower on the play prior to the score. Arizona opened the second half by embarking on a 15-play, 84-yard drive that ended in a Neil Rackers 26-yard field goal to tie the score at 10-10. On the ensuing possession, the Redskins marched 80 yards on 11 plays to recapture the lead, 17-10, on a two-yard touchdown pass from Campbell to Todd Yoder. Campbell was 6-for-6 on the drive for 40 yards, while Antwaan Randle El completed an 11-yard pass to Chris Cooley and rookie Devin Thomas rushed 16 yards on an end-around. The Cardinals answered just three plays later when Warner launched a 62-yard touchdown pass to Larry Fitzgerald to knot the score at 17-17. Following a Redskins punt in the opening minute of the fourth quarter, Arizona took over at its 19-yard line. On a 2nd-and-8 from his own 21, Warner threw deep for Steve Breaston, but the pass was broken up by Washington cornerback Leigh Torrence and subsequently intercepted by Carlos Rogers, who returned it 42 yards to the Arizona 21. After a twoyard loss on a Portis rush, Campbell threw a wide receiver screen to Santana Moss, who went in for a 17-yard touchdown to give Washington a 24-17 lead. Including playoffs, it was the sixth straight game in which Moss has caught a touchdown pass, tying a Redskins record set by Hall of Famer Bobby Mitchell in 1964. TEAM WAS WAS ARI ARI WAS ARI WAS

GAME 4
Texas Stadium Irving, Texas
REDSKINS 26, COWBOYS 24 The Redskins won their third straight contest by handing the Dallas Cowboys their first loss of the season, 26-24, in the final regular season meeting between these longtime rivals at Texas Stadium. Dallas opened the scoring on its third drive of the game when Tony Romo hit Jason Witten on a 21-yard touchdown pass. The Cowboys moved 60 yards in six plays over 2:35, highlighted by a Romo to Patrick Crayton 23-yard completion to the Redskins’ 32-yard line on third-and-five. Washington answered on the ensuing possession by marching 79 yards on 10 plays, capped by a Jason Campbell to James Thrash three-yard touchdown pass. Campbell completed 6-of-7 passes for 60 yards on the drive, while Antwaan Randle El hauled in two balls for 30 yards and rushed for five yards. Washington grabbed its first lead on its next possession when Campbell threw a two-yard touchdown to Randle El after a seven-play 51-yard drive. The biggest play of the possession was a 28-yard completion from Campbell to Moss to give Washington the ball at the Dallas 6. Moss also set up the game’s next score when he was on the receiving end of a 53-yard strike from Campbell to give the Redskins the ball at the Cowboys 8-yard line. After Washington failed to get into the end zone, Shaun Suisham connected on the first of his four field goals to give the Redskins a 17-7 advantage. Moss racked up 125 yards receiving in the first half and finished the day with eight catches for 145 yards. The Cowboys took the final possession of the first half and marched 66 yards over 10 plays and 1:53, capped by a Nick Folk 26-yard field goal to pull within seven heading to the locker room. Coming out for the second half, Dallas was once again on the move as it took the Cowboys just five plays to travel 57 yards on a drive that ended with a Romo to Terrell Owens 10-yard touchdown completion. The Redskins answered with a field goal on the ensuing possession to regain the lead, 20-17. The big play on the drive was a 31-yard scamper by Clinton Portis, which was followed two plays later by a Campbell-to-Moss 17-yard completion to give the Redskins the ball at the Dallas 6. Washington actually reached the end zone twice, but both plays were nullified by penalties and the Redskins had to settle for Suisham’s kick. Portis finished the afternoon with a seasonhigh 121 yards on 21 carries. After the teams exchanged punts, the Cowboys had the ball, first-and-10 at their own 37-yard line as the third quarter was coming to a close. Romo intended a pass short to the right for Miles Austin, but Redskins rookie safety Chris Horton stepped in front and made his NFC-leading third interception of the season. Washington could only manage 29 yards on nine plays on the resulting possession, but Suisham converted his third field goal of the day to give the Redskins a 23-17 lead. The Redskins defense, protecting a six-point lead, forced Dallas’ fourth three-and-out on the day, giving the ball back to the Redskins offense, which chewed up 6:54 of the clock before Suisham made the score 26-17. Romo hit Austin for an 11-yard touchdown with 1:48 to play, but the onside kick attempts went out of bounds and allowed the Redskins to run out the remaining 1:42. Washington held the ball for 12:48 in the fourth quarter compared to the Cowboys’ 2:12. For the game, the Redskins had a 38:09-21:51 time of possession advantage.

Lincoln Financial Field Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
REDSKINS 23, EAGLES 17 Washington defeated a divisional opponent on the road for the second consecutive week for the first time since 1987, by defeating Philadelphia, 23-17, at Lincoln Financial Field. To do so the Redskins had to overcome a 14-point, first-quarter deficit. Following the opening kickoff, Philadelphia started at its owned 20-yard line and took 6:34 to march 80 yards in12 plays to make the score 7-0. Donovan McNabb converted four of his six pass attempts on the drive, including the longest play of the series, a 17-yard completion to Brian Westbrook. Westbrook also rushed four times for 22 yards, including a nine-yard touchdown to cap the drive. After a three-and-out for the Redskins offense, Philadelphia’s DeSean Jackson returned Durant Brooks’ punt 68 yards for another Eagles touchdown, to make the score 14-0 just 7:13 into the game. From therej, Washington would reel off 23 unanswered points. Shaun Suisham connected on three second-quarter field goals to bring the Redskins within five points heading into the locker room. The first capped an 8-play, 37-yard drive, which featured two Chris Cooley catches for a combined 24 yards. The Pro Bowl tight end finished the day with eight grabs for 109 yards and a touchdown. Washington started its next possession on its own three-yard line before Clinton Portis provided some breathing room with three rushes for 12 yards and a first down. Ladell Betts spelled Portis on the next two plays and carried twice for 23 yards. After Jason Campbell was sacked for a nine-yard loss, the Redskins faced 2nd-and-19 from there own 29, but Campbell completed two passes, one to Cooley for eight yards and one to rookie Devin Thomas for 16 yards to advance the ball to the 37 and provide a fresh set of downs. Six plays later, Suisham hit a 48-yard field goal that banked in off the left upright. The Redskins got the ball once more in the half, with 55 seconds remaining, at their 18-yard line. Campbell completed 5-of-7 passes, the final of which was a 17-yard strike over the middle to Cooley to the Eagles 32 and set up Suisham’s third field goal from 50 yards. After the teams exchanged punts to open the second half, the Redskins embarked on a seven-play, 75-yard touchdown drive. On back-to-back plays, Campbell connected with Antwaan Randle El for 16 yards and Portis rushed for 21 yards, to move the ball into Philadelphia territory. Portis then rushed for seven yards and Campbell hit Thomas for a 12-yard gain to give the Redskins a first down at the Eagles 18. On the next play, Campbell handed to Randle El on an end around, who then found Cooley in the middle of the field for a touchdown. With 2:11 remaining in the third quarter, Randle El returned a Sav Rocca punt at the Washington 14-yard line and returned it 28 yards. An unnecessary roughness penalty on Philadelphia tacked on 15 more yards and gave the Redskins the ball at the Eagles 43. Portis carried on the first three plays of the drive, the third of which went for 27 yards to the Eagles 7. After a three-yard rush by Betts and an incompletion the Redskins faced third-and-goal from the four, but Portis found daylight up the middle and scored to make the score 23-14. David Akers kicked a fourth quarter field goal to make the score 23-17, but the Redskins got the ball on the ensuing possession and used the final 7:12 of the clock.

RAMS 19, REDSKINS 17 Washington’s four-game winning streak came to an end to the previously winless St. Louis Rams in a heartbreaking 19-17 defeat. The Redskins fell to 4-2, while the Rams moved to 1-4. After being stalled at their own 47-yard line on the game’s opening possession, the Redskins were forced to punt. Durant Brooks responded with a 50-yard boot that was downed at the Rams’ three-yard line. Following a one-yard rush on first down, Rams running back Steven Jackson fumbled on second down and the ball was recovered by Washington safety LaRon Landry at the St. Louis three. On the very next play, Clinton Portis plowed forward for the game’s first six points. Following a punt by each team, St. Louis started its third drive at its own 38. The Rams moved 29 yards in nine plays, including a Josh Brown 51-yard field goal to make the score 7-3. The score remained the same until the final minute of the first half. With 26 seconds remaining and Washington driving at the Rams’ 16, Jason Campbell’s pass attempt was batted at the line by Rams defensive tackle Adam Carriker. Redskins guard Pete Kendall caught the ball and proceeded forward before Rams linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa forced him to fumble. The ball was picked up by St. Louis’ Oshiomogho Atogwe and returned 75 yards for a touchdown, to make the score 10-7. It was the Redskins’ third turnover of the first half after they had gone the first five games without an offensive turnover, the first team in NFL history to do so. The Rams took the opening drive of the second half and moved 56 yards in 12 plays, capped by a 25-yard field goal by Brown to extend their lead to 13-7. After punts on the next three possessions of the game, the Rams took over the ball at the Washington 33-yard line with 2:35 remaining in the third quarter. Three plays later Brown nailed a 44-yarder to give the Rams a nine-point lead. On the ensuing possession, the Redskins marched 59 yards in nine plays before settling for a Suisham 38-yard field goal to pull within six points. After forcing a Rams punt, Washington took over at its own 27-yard line. The Redskins traveled 73 yards on nine-plays, led by Portis’ 43 yards rushing, including a two-yard touchdown to give the Redskins the lead. The Rams took over at their 24-yard line. After a pair of Jackson runs, Marc Bulger connected with Donnie Avery for 12 yards to the 44-yard line for a first down. Following an incompletion and a three-yard loss on a Jackson run, St. Louis faced a third-and-13 at their 41. Bulger again looked for Avery and connected with him down the right sideline for a gain of 43 yards to the Washington 16. Bulger kneeled on the next play, but St. Louis guard Richie Incognito was flagged for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, moving the Rams back to the Redskins 32. Following a one-yard run by Jackson, St. Louis called a timeout with two second remaining to set up a 49-yard attempt by Brown. Brown was successful for the fourth time on the afternoon to give the Rams the 19-17 victory. TEAM WAS STL STL STL STL WAS WAS STL
