Running and Kicking game helps Skins beat Fins.

With a total of three field goals, which included 39 yard game winning one in overtime, Shaun Suisham, help the Washingnton Redskins to thier first win in the 2007. Clinton Portis had a superb game, rushing for 98 yards and one touchdown. Wide Receiver Antwaan Randel El had a career high 162 yards on five receptions.

Washington ruin Miami head coach Cam Cameron and new quarterback Trent Green debut with thier perspective teams. Green used his new weapons well, when he threw to RB's Jesse Chatman, Ronnie Brown, and WR Chris Chambers for a combine 219 yards and one touchdown.

The Dolphins almost lost the game before the game went into overtime. Jason Campbell threw a hail mary pass, which was deflected by Miami defense and landed on Randel El hands. He was stop at the 3 yard line.


STATFACT
Redskins out-rushed the Dolphins 400-296 (yards).


Redskins had more turnovers.... and still won the game.

The Dolphins struggled on the offensive line with too many penalties. The game was clearly over when the home field team won the coin flip in overtime. The Dolphins defense in overtime looked tired and old, which helped the Redskins pound the ball with its running game, to set up the game winning field goal. The Dolphins lost a key player in safety Yeremiah Bell.
