The second quarter began with the Giants again moving the ball, sparked by a 23-yard third-down pass to Sinorice Moss, who got on the stat sheet before his better-known older brother, Santana. But the drive ended with two incomplete passes, and the Giants settled for a 25-yard John Carney field goal, running the score to 13-0. The Giants moved into Redskins territory again before an incomplete pass and a stuffed Brandon Jacobs rush stalled their progress. They settled for a 47-yard field goal with two minutes to play, but Rock Cartwright's 50-yard kickoff return moved the Redskins into New York territory for the first time, and they took full advantage. Helped by a face-mask penalty, Washington ended the 45-yard drive with a 12-yard Campbell-to-Moss touchdown, the first of the Jim Zorn era.
