Down 13-0, getting late and how were we going to score? Then John Lynch came up with a huge interception, Shaun King led a drive that Mike Alstott finished off, and the momentum turned. The winning score came midway through the fourth quarter but the Redskins still had a chance on a FG attempt as time expired. Former Buc Dan Turk sent down a terrible snap and the kick never got away.
