- Lavar Arrington's interception returned for a TD against the Panthers. You could sense that things were changing after their 0-5 start.
- Stephen Davis fumbling late in the game and blowing it vs. the effing Cowboys. I'm pretty sure that was 2001 and it was on a Sunday or Monday night.
- Kent Graham's legendary performance.

My question now is, why didn't Kent Graham take another snap for the Redskins after that? WTF, Marty!!! Maybe Marty did deserve the pink slip.
Thats a good question. George was gone. Tony banks played in front of graham the rest of the year. Graham never really played again with hiuston so i think it was an every dog has his day thing against denver? Funny thing is as i was just looking up info on graham to find out that it was the redskins who got him benched while he was on the giants and for all intensive purposes his career was ovet at that point. I just went back and looked again. Graham didnt start the denver game so banks must have gotten hurt and than came back the next week. Banks already won three in a row going into the denver game.
