Don Banks from SI says," Could someone please explain to me why the face-mask penalty called on Dallas guard Kyle Kosier on Sean Taylor's return of a blocked field goal was a 15-yarder rather than the less-flagrant five-yard variety? Kosier only had Taylor's face mask for a split second, and quickly let go before it reached the usual standard for a 15-yard penalty. Those extra 10 yards made all the difference on Nick Novak's subsequent game-winning 47-yard field goal for the Redskins.

I understand the logic that led Dallas to go for that two-point conversion up 6-5 a couple minutes into the second quarter at Washington, but why does it always seem like when you go for the deuce too soon -- and fail -- it invariably comes back to bite you in the butt? Redskins haters here come the run of the century.
