Oh how I loved the Redskins-Cowboys game last night!
Prior to watching the game, I read several
articles about how badly the Cowboys were going to beat up the Redskins and
about how the Redskins wouldn’t stand a chance in hell of beating the Cowboys. I also read up on how marvelous, if not invincible,
the Cowboys offensive line was.

But, when you are a Redskins fan, like I am,
you “never say never.”
you “never say never.”
Turns out, I got the last laugh last
night! Skins 20 – Cowboys 17.

ARLINGTON,
Tex. — A third-string quarterback, a rookie cornerback and a fierce defensive
stand combined to pull off a stunning upset in one of the NFL’s more storied
rivalries Monday night, as Washington toppled the heavily favored Dallas Cowboys on their home turf, 20-17, in overtime.

Quarterback Colt McCoy was as cool as they come in
overtime, not missing a throw as he marched Washington downfield on five
completions to Pierre Garcon, Jordan Reed and DeSean Jackson. Kai Forbath
capped the drive with a 40-yard field goal that supplied the crucial margin.

But Dallas
still had a chance to win the game under overtime rules. Its three-time Pro
Bowl quarterback Tony Romo, who had been forced out in the third quarter by a
bone-jarring sack, had re-entered the lineup for late-game heroics. They didn’t
materialize, with rookie Bashaud Breeland batting away Romo’s final throw and
bringing the game to its improbable end.

With it,
Washington (3-5) won back-to-back games for the first
time since the close of the 2012 regular season and snapped the Cowboys’
six-game winning streak. Washington also got its first victory in the NFC East
since December 2012.

The notion
that the Redskins could actually beat Dallas (6-2) drew laughter Sunday from a CBS NFL Today crew
that included football luminaries Bill Cowher, Boomer Esiason and Tony
Gonzalez. The entire panel of experts in ESPN’s Monday night pregame show picked against the Redskins.
