Skins Lose in Detroit

This was a game im still shocked over because of certain decisions made and some mistakes that should not have neen made. Redksins go for it on 4th and goal from the 1 and get stuffed on a sterch left. Then they go offsisdes and give up five that they needed to create extra pressure on the Lions. Two third downs end up just short of the marker on passes to Cooley and Moss Moss i think had enopugh but got a weak spot. Jason was 27-41 fro 340 yds and a 97.6 QB rating. CP another day not over 100 yds this one not even close as he had 0 yds in the first half and 42 on 12 carries for the game 3.5 avg. Moss 10 grabs for 178 yds and a TD. One decision ir really question is the SKins accepting a off pass interference call when they had the Lions stopped on 3rd down but Zorn said he wanted them out of FG range but they ended up copncverting a 3rd and 13 and would ened up scoring a TD in that drive. Hey kick a Fg and make them kick a Fg and thats a 7 point swing adn enough for the SKins tow in the game. Instead the O runs out of time late in the 4th and we cant score the game winning TD. We also needed a 3 and out on D to give us abouyt 48 more seconds which i belibve i would have givven uss a great schacne to get that TD. Betts 4 grbs fro 43 yds Cooley 3 fopr 38 EL 2 for 21 Kelly 1 for 18 Davis 1 for 13 Rock 3 for 12 and a TD Devibn 1 for 7 Portis 1 for 6 Sellers 1 for 4. A long compeltion to Devin was brought back on a hold and that really hurt the SKins as well. Yds in favor of the ZSKins 390-381 but the SKins had 9-98 yds and two missed calls one a facemask on Moss which would have converetd a 3rd down and another a intention groundindg when Stafford threw the ball nowhere near reciver while in the grasp should have been penalties. hanyesworth his first sace of the yeae a fierce hit where he folded the QB like a lawn chair and Orakpo his first sack he speed rushed and beat his man and dove in and sacked the QB. No Turnovers created by the SKins defense and that makes things more dificlut to win. Cambell 2 TDs 1 pick giving him 3 TDs and 2 picks for the year. His pick came when he was pressured and had to get rid of it but El was open Moss was covered and he went to Moss and it was picked off.
