KEYS TO THE GAME

1st Down: Move the Ball


Gaining 120 yards is not the way to make a living, especially in the playoffs. In their last three games of the regular season, the Redskins scored 35, 35 and 31 points. Last week against Tampa Bay, the Redskins scored 17 points, seven of which came via the defense (Sean Taylor's 51-yard touchdown return off a fumble) and another seven set up by the defense (LaVar Arrington's interception gave the Redskins first and goal at the 6). The rest of the game was an offensive disaster. The Redskins did not convert a third down in the fourth quarter. By comparison, Buccaneers RB Carnell Williams had more yards rushing (49) than Redskins QB Mark Brunell totaled passing (41). For the game, the Redskins ran one play inside the Buccaneers 20.
