It’s one thing to lose despite putting in a good effort, but Saturday night the Redskins forgot they had a game to play.  The offense looked bad when they had the ball, but the defense was absolutley horrid.  Mark Brunell completed 7 of 16 passes for 51 yards.  Jason Campbell completed 8 of 16 passes for 76 yards and ran the ball twice for 26 yards.  Todd Collins completed his only pass for 11 yards.

Ledell Betts carried the ball 7 times for 25 yards (3.6 ypc).  New RB TJ Duckett ran the ball 4 times for 8 yards.

The Patriots controlled the football for 36:08 of the game.  The Redskins defense allowed the Patriots to run for 170 yards on 4.5 yards per carry.  The Patriots also completed 63.2% of their passes for 294 net yards through the air.

The only bright spot is that this game doesn’t count in the standings.
