WASHINGTON, 5:48 Graham Gano kicks a 27-yard field goal to cap a 5-play, 2:11 drive. The Redskins opened the game mostly through
the air. DonovanMcNabb threwon six of the drive’s eight plays and completed all six for 55 yards. McNabb foundMike Sellers for 22 yards and SantanaMoss for 13. With a first down at the 24- yard line, the Redskins stalled and settled for a 41- yard field goal by Graham Gano. Houston returner Steve Slaton inexplicably
fielded Gano’s kickoff at the 1-yard line before stepping out of bounds.Matt Schaub found Kevin Walter for 24 yards on the first play, but two plays later, Carlos Rogers stepped in front of a pass for an interception—Rogers’s first since December 2008. The Redskins drove again beforeMcNabb threw
his first incompletion, on third down. Gano’s 27- yard field goal increased the lead to 6-0. Houston started its second possession on its 23-
yard line. A mix of Arian Foster and Andre Johnson brought the ball to the Redskins 5, where the Texans had first and goal at quarter’s end.
