The Redskins played just good enough to beat the Cardinals last Sunday.  Jason Campbell was solid in completing 22 of 30 passes for 193 yards with 2 TD passes.  He also carried the ball 4 times for 26 yards (6.5 ypc).  Antwaan Randle El completed his only pass attempt for 11 yards and he also caught 3 passes for 23 yards.  Clinton Portis carried the ball 21 times for 68 yards (3.2 ypc) with a TD run.  He also caught 2 passes for 19 yards (9.5 avg).  WR Santana Moss led the way in the passing game for the Redskins with 7 catches for 75 yards (10.7 avg) with a TD grab.  The Redskins finished up with 136 yards rushing on 31 carries (4.4 ypc) and they also completed 23 of 31 passes for 187 yards.

The defense was stout when it needed to be to help the Redskins win this game.  LB Rocky McIntosh (10 tackles, 1/2 sack) and S Reed Doughty (9 tackles) both had solid games to lead the Redskins on defense.  CB Carlos Rogers also had a huge game with 4 tackles, a interception and a fumble recovery.  The Cardinals finished up with 116 yards rushing on 23 carries (5.0 ypc) and they also completed 17 of 31 passes for 197 yards.  The Redskins are now 2-1 on the season with this win.
