Anyone notice after that pick they showed Cooley talking to Rex on the sideline, probably asking him what happened. Rex says something and you could see Cooley say "F that". I'm assuming Rex probably said Davis effed up the route.

Grossman Puts Eagles Game In the Past
INT No. 3: Eighth drive, the Redskins trailed 21-6 and face a second-and-12 at the Eagles’ 21-yard line. Formation was 4WR-ORB-1WR. Four-man rush vs. five-man protection. Grossman again looked for Davis on deep post but the tape intimates that Davis hesitated on breaking off his route, which allowed Coleman to make his second interception.
Grossman: “Some of these, you have to trust the other people to make a cut to cross a safety’s face. I’m not saying Fred didn’t do that but when things are tight, you have to make a quick decision and I was trusting he was going to make a cut. But he wasn’t able to.”
Our guess: Hearing Grossman’s post-game session, it guaranteed further examination and the Davis’ hiccup showed what was going on. Add to that Shanahan’s short reveal that a benching depends on who is at fault equals that Davis made the error and earned Grossman another series.
