The Washington Redskins looked great earlier tonight at the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio.  It all started when the Colts tried an onside kick on the first play of the game.  The Redskins recovered and Jason Campbell took the team right down the field as he completed a 20-yard TD pass to Antwaan Randle El.  Campbell completed all 5 of his pass attempts tonight for 61 yards with 1 TD pass.  After Campbell was Todd Collins and he played decent completing 5 of 6 passes for 32 yards.  But, it was Colt Brennan that stole the show as far as the QBs were concerned.  Brennan completed 9 of 10 passes for 123 yards with 2 TD passes (one to WR Maurice Mann and one to RB Marcus Mason).  Running backs Rock Cartwright and Marcus Mason carried the whole load in the running game.  Clinton Portis and Ladell Betts were just watching these guys run all over the Colts’ defense.  Marcus Mason carried the ball 18 times for 98 yards (5.4 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 11 yards (5.5 avg) including one of which was a TD.  Rock Cartwright carried the ball 13 times for 58 yards (4.5 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 15 yards (7.5 avg).  The Redskins finished up the game with 156 yards rushing on 31 carries (5.0 ypc).  They also completed 19 of 22 passes (86.4%) for 199 yards in the game.  The Redskins almost looked too good on offense if that’s even possible.

The Redskins gave up a lot of yards in this football game but they also got a good look at some young kids that played well in the 2nd half of the game.  Rookie CB Chris Horton had a monster game as he had 5 tackles and 2 sacks.  Fellow CB Matterral Richardson had 2 tackles tonight but his biggest play was a interception that he returned 38-yards for a TD.  Linebacker Khary Campbell led the Redskins in tackles with 8 tonight.  The Colts finished up with 113 yards rushing on 20 carries (5.7 ypc) and they also completed 29 of 50 passes (58%) for 297 yards.  The Redskins have some things they need to work on defensively but it was nice to see some of the kids really step up in the second half.  Overall, the Skins looked pretty good tonight.
