The Redskins beat the Steelers at their own game pushing them around physically last Saturday Night.  Jason Campbell started this game at QB and he was terrible completing only 1 of 7 passes for 10 yards.  Todd Collins was the next one in and he didn’t look good either completing 5 of 9 passes for 39 yards with 1 interception.  Colt Brennan was next up and he completed 3 of 5 passes for 42 yards with 1 interception.  Undrafted QB Chase Daniel really energized the Redskins when he entered the game.  He completed 6 of 8 passes for 58 yards with 2 TD throws.  He also carried the ball 1 time for 22 yards.  RB Marcus Mason led the way for the Redskins on the ground in this game as he rushed for 45 yards on 11 carries (4.1 ypc).  Dominique Dorsey also had a solid game carrying the ball 11 times for 39 yards (3.5 ypc).  TE Fred Davis (2 rec, 31 yards) and WR Marko Mitchell (3 rec, 21 yards) each caught a TD pass in this game for the Redskins.  The Redskins had possession of the football for 35:28 of this game which is impressive.  They finished up with 304 total yards on offense (167 rushing, 137 passing).

5 different Redskins led the way for the D with 4 tackles apiece in a good team effort against the Ben Roethlisberger-less Steelers.  The Steelers were held to only 238 total yards on offense (99 rushing, 139 passing).
