freakofthesouth Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 The word here that stands out for me is what we 'overcame.' We took a potentially disastrous day, and turned it into a W: http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20050911_CHI@WAS The Redskins allowed only 166 total yards, overcame three turnovers, several untimely penalties and the loss of starter Patrick Ramsey, who had his neck wrung in the second quarter by blitzing linebacker Lance Briggs. Mark Brunell, booed mercilessly last year by the home fans, entered and led three scoring drives, all ending in field goals by John Hall and powered in part by the running of Clinton Portis, who rushed for 121 yards on 21 carries.
