I honestly don't remember deep balls tossed to Moss or Cooley when we were up 14-3. when was this?
I remember a long bomb to santana (caught) and that is pretty much it. perhaps we have differing views on what constitutes a deep pass- or perhaps I was buying a beer...

By NFL rules, a "deep pass" is one that travels at least 15 yards in the air. Around the time of Campbell's fumble (that the Skins recovered) there was an incomplete deep pass to Cooley. Score was 14-3 at the time

After Droughns scored from 1 yard out to make it 17-10 Redskins, there was an incomplete deep pass to Moss. I'm not positive but this may have been the one that seemed like pretty blatant pass interference (if not illegal contact). I remember there was one play where I couldn't believe no flag was thrown.
