I just loved this game. Moss was big. Portis was HUGE and Cambell and the offense were not gonna turn the ball over in this one either as the SKins win 26-24 over hated Dallas (Alice). Portis rushed 21 times for 121 yards for a 5.8 avg. Barber the other RB rushed only 8 times for 26 yards as pass happy Dallas tried to pitch and catch their way to victory but did not. Romo threw for 300 but the game was all but over as the SKins held a 9 point advantage late in the fourth. Dallas would score and then try the onside kick but could not recover it. Moss caught 8 balls for 145 yards. The big offensive lineman Casey Rabach had not one but two huge penalties both on plays that were TDs called back. One was a phantom hold the other ineligle lineman downfield. Skins had to settle for a FG. Dallas had 2 sacks and the SKins none as Jason Taylor was missing due to injury but the SKins did get in Romo's face and forced erreant throws and Chris Horton's 3 pick for the rookie who is now starting in place of Reed Doughty. TO was held to 7 catches for 71 yards (Timeout TO is that all you could do in the biggest game of the NFL season thus far. The SKins outgained Dallas 381-344 total yards and Springs Smoot and Rogers all were slapping passes away from Dallas WRs. Smoot and SPrings both suffered minor injuries and I pray they will be back vs Philly another NFC East game on the road for the SKins in their first 5 games (3 of them). The Skins need another flawless performance and they need another win because then they face 3 weaker opponents in Detroit St. Louis and the Browns. If they can beat Philly they may just go 7-1 in the first half of the season. That would be awesome for the Skins players and Coach Zorn (Jay-Z).
