Boyd’s 1997 NFL Replay Game 76 – Washington at Philadelphia
Eagles run all over the Redskins
At 1-3 to start the season, the Philadelphia Eagles have looked nothing like the playoff team they were a year ago…until Sunday. The Eagles finally got their running game going and they pummeled the Washington Redskins on the ground rushing for 221 yards in their 17-7 victory at Veteran’s Stadium. Ricky Watters rushed for 150 yard and Charlie Garner had 45.
On the defensive side, the Eagles’ defense shut down the Redskins ground game. They held Terry Allen to just 10 yards rushing and the Redskins to only 56. The Eagles also sacked Gus Frerotte 3 times and picked him off once.
The Eagles are now 2-3 and will travel to Jacksonville next Sunday. The Redskins fall to 3-2 and host Dallas in a Monday Night matchup next week to determine the top spot in the NFC East.

Skins’ Dishman breaks the game open!
Redskins’ defensive back Chris Dishman thwarted a Jaguar come-back in front of a ruckus crowd at Jack Kent Cooke Stadium on Sunday. The Jaguars closed the gap to 16-10 when Mark Brunell connected with Keenan McCardell late in the third quarter on a scoring strike. The Jaguars had the momentum, and their defense stuffed the Redskins on the Washington next possession. Brunell connected with Jimmy Smith on a 23-yd pass and seemed as if the Jaguars were going to take the game over. BUT Dishman stepped in front of a Brunell pass on the next play and picked the ball off. He weaved through Jaguar tacklers and raced 49-yards for the TD. The Redskins took a 23-10 lead and never looked back. The Skins are now 3-1 on the season, while the Jaguars, who were in the AFC Championship game a year ago, have stumbled out of the blocks going 1-3.
