Pittsburgh Steelers 12, Washington Redskins 10
The Redskins couldn’t get anything going on offense and that ruined a good defensive effort on Saturday Night. Jason Campbell completed 6 of 8 passes for 75 yards before leaving the game with a minor injury. Mark Brunell didn’t look to good as he completed 5 of 12 passes for 56 yards with an interception. Todd Sollins was really good though as he completed 10 of 13 passes for 74 yards with a TD. Collins played so well that the Redskins are considering trading Mark Brunell to the Falcons and making him the backup QB. The Redskins got absolutely nothing going on the ground as Derrick Blaylock (7 car, 16 yards), Marcus Mason (7 car, 14 yards) and LeDell Betts (6 car, 12 yards) all had their problems with the Steelers’ defense. TE Chris Cooley was the leading receiver for the Redskins with 5 grabs for 60 yards (12.0 avg). The Redskins finished up with 43 yards on 22 carries (2.0 ypc) and they completed 21 of 33 passes for 183 yards.
The Redskins defense was pretty solid as they allowed the Steelers to rush for 101 yards on 32 carries (3.2 ypc). The Steelers also completed 18 of 25 passes for 187 yards.
