Bigger, Not Better

Big plays again got the best of Washington's defense, including:

· 69-yard touchdown run by Jerious Norwood.

· 22-yard touchdown pass from Michael Vick to Michael Jenkins.

· 46-yard pass to tight end Alge Crumpler on third down to set up another score.

The three plays produced 137 yards. The Falcons' other 55 plays went for a total of 232 yards.

"Those three explosive plays were really the difference defensively," said Gregg Williams, assistant head coach-defense. "That was frustrating, those three plays."
