The Washington Redskins scored the final points of the game on Sunday, coming back to down the Arizona Cardinals by the slimmest of margins, 22-21. In a back-and-forth battle that stayed close throughout, the Redskins appeared to be on the ropes after falling victim to a 73-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. But it would be the last time the Cardinals put points on the board as the offense stalled and the Redskins kicked into gear.
Down 21-13, Rex Grossman found Santana Moss for 18 yards and the touchdown, capping a 13 play, 73 yard drive. The two-point conversion failed, and the Redskins trailed by two, 21-19.
After forcing a three-and-out, the Redskins took over and began to march, driving 48 yards in eight plays, setting up a Graham Gano field goal attempt. His 34-yard attempt was true and the Redskins took a one-point lead late in the fourth.
Arizona fumbled on the first play of its next possession and the Redskins were able to run out the clock, escaping with a 22-21 win.
