I would have still called a different play, but I can see what he called that. He should have at least had a different receiver, some one with some hops like Reed or Garcon.

I agree. I wasn't crazy over that call either, but if Moss was just able to drag his feet just a little bit, then the game goes into overtime.

I never like to complain about the refs, because good teams find a way to win despite bad officiating, but there were so many non-calls that should have been called that I really started to think the game was rigged. RGIII was hit late several times, but it was never called. Christian Ponder was hit the same exact way - personal foul penalty. Jordon Reed was held going into the end zone - no call. Personal foul penalties on the 'skins after the play - although the Minnesota players struck first. I just felt that during the whole game, the refs were completely one sided. Sometimes I see refs missing an obvious call or making a bad penalty call, but then go back later and kind of make things even. Not in this game. It was one bad no call after the other all night - mostly calls that would have benefited the 'skins, but the refs were going to have none of that.

But like I said, good teams win despite poor officiating and this team just isn't a good team. It's not the 3-6 team from a year ago that was good enough to overcome that hole and win the division - this team deserves 3-6.
