Washington Redskins 24, Chicago Bears 16
The Bears just ran into a buzzsaw last night as the Redskins wanted the game more last night and that showed on the field. Rex Grossman injured his left knee in what appears to be a major injury in the first quarter and he did not return to the game. He completed 2 of 6 passes for 14 yards before he was injured. Brian Griese replaced him and he completed 27 of 45 passes for 295 yards with 1 TD pass and 2 interceptions. Adrian Peterson had another bad game as he carried the ball 17 times for 35 yards (2.1 ypc). Garrett Wolfe was active as he carried the ball 3 times for 13 yards (4.3 ypc) and he also caught 4 passes for 37 yards (9.3 avg). Bernard Berrian (7 rec, 91 yards) and Devin Hester (5 rec, 67 yards) led the way in the passing game for the Bears. The Bears finished up with 60 yards rushing on 24 carries (2.5 ypc) and they also completed 29 of 51 passes for 296 yards.
The Bears defense was led by safety Brandon McGowan (10 tackles), DE Alex Brown (7 tackles) and DE Adewale Ogunleye (5 tackles, fumble recovery). The Redskins finished up with 31 yards rushing on 24 carries (1.3 ypc) and they also completed 25 of 36 passes for 314 yards.
