The Redskins showed little life for the first three quarters of this football game before a spurt at the start of the 4th quarter which saw them score two TDs in the span of less than three minutes to give them a 14-13 lead, but then the roof caved in.  Todd Collins threw a couple of pick sixes and then the game ended with the Skins losing by 21 points……Sean Taylor’s number.

Collins completed 29 of 50 passes in this game for 266 yards with 2 TD passes and 2 interceptions (both returned for TDs).  Clinton Portis had a rough time finding anywhere to run against the speedy defense of the Seahawks.  He carried the football 20 times for 52 yards (2.6 ypc) and he also caught 4 passes for 28 yards (7.0 avg).  Antwaan Randle El (10 rec, 94 yards, TD), Santana Moss (6 rec, 68 yards, TD) and Chris Cooley (5 rec, 46 yards) all had solid games for the Skins.  The Redskins finished up with 75 yards rushing on 29 carries (2.6 ypc) and they also completed 29 of 50 passes for 244 yards.

Despite the score the defense played pretty well for the Redskins yesterday.  They were led by Shawn Springs (8 tackles) and LaRon Landry (5 tackles, 2 interceptions).  The Seahawks finished up with 77 yards rushing on 21 carries (3.7 ypc) and they also completed 20 of 32 passes for 227 yards.
