Eddie George played a solid game coming off his injury, gaining 71 yards on 22 carries Monday night. So he tiptoed along the right sideline, then meandered across the field to the left sideline, reading his blocks along the way. Finally, almost out of gas, he stumbled the last yard into the end zone for a touchdown on the last play of the first half. The score put Tennessee ahead by 13 points, and the Titans headed into the locker room with the momentum on their way to a 27-21 victory over the Washington Redskins on Monday night. He was determined to get it into the end zone.
Some people intercept it and run up the sidelines and out of bounds and are satisfied with that.
It was not necessarily the conventional way. Washington's players put a premium on winning this game under the national spotlight after losing a Monday night game to Dallas earlier this year. We've lost two big games at home on Monday night. Basically that was the ball game. Rolle's interception was as dramatic as they come.
