that would have been the play that would have decided the game. it's flat-out hold. there is no ifs, ands or buts. we talked about this on friday. the problem is their offensive line, brian orakpo exploit ploited that. i thought he would have other than a bigger game but the cowboy offensive line for the most part held up until they needed to hold up the most at the end and they couldn't do it. >> dallas made a lot of mistakes. the redskin did not play a clean game. it doesn't matter because the win is the win. we will take the win. >> but this might be one of the dumbest play calls in the history of pro football. that little flip right there. what is he thinking? but deangelo hall ripped the ball out. they go in to end the half with that touch downto put the redskins up 10-0. it was absolutely pair -- paramount to victory in this game. you are at your own 6-yard line. i don't know what the world the cowboy coaching staff was think about. >> you think you don't want to be shut out at the half. >> the then you got to throw the hail mary. you don't throw a real flat pattern like that. that is why you don't throw those dangerous plays out there like the cowboys did. the redskins were more than happy to take advantage of that. >> we have to talk about albert haynesworth. he did get in. he was in the first series but used sparingly? >> i actually thought he played okay. we'll hear from him coming up next hour. it was real incident refght. you saw some shots of him away from the defense. you saw the whole defensive team huddled and albert was standing by himself. he played excited frankly more than i thought he would play early in the game in the second half, he was in and out. they need him. they absolutely flat out have to have this guy on board if they're going to have a successful season. that is why he was in the game yesterday. i don't think any more can you go into this, well, we'll bench him because we don't like his attitude. if that is going to the case, you have to find a way to get him off the team. it was proven last night the redskins need him to be effective for them to win. >> we'll take the win at this point. we'll talk about don haven't mcnabb and his debut. numbers not so pretty but got the job done. coming up next at #:00, all -- at 6:00, all of your top stories coming up as fox 5 morning news continues. d rd
