The Redskins executed their most efficient drive of the season. The deep pass to Galloway, the quick out to Moss, and short run by Portis. This looks like the oil is finally lathering up this engine. Let’s see if this continues. —– Later in the half, McNabb goes deep to Fred Davis and Clinton Portis punches it in two plays later. Skins now up 20-7/

redskins/texans notes.
