Well, for those who were hoping that the Redskins-Saints game might be a big moment for the Redskins, things aren’t looking good. The team finds themselves down big at the half, as the home team Saints lead 26-13. And that is largely thanks to a rash of penalties and defensive mistakes
The worst penalty of the first half came on Montae Nicholson. After Ryan Kerrigan picked up his first sack of the season, Montae Nicholson unnecessarily laid out Mark Ingram after the play. There was no need for the senseless play, and the Saints would have punted if not for the penalty.
