Jacksonville Jaguars vs Washington Redskins: Live Score, Analysis for Washington

Marcel DavisSep 14, 2014

After an underwhelming start to the 2014 NFL season, the Washington Redskins ended their nine-game losing streak in head coach Jay Gruden's home debut in resounding fashion. Coming out of Week 2's action with a 41-10 victory over the hapless Jacksonville Jaguars, the victory did come at a cost.

Franchise quarterback Robert Griffin III suffered an ankle injury in the first quarter and didn't return. Joining him on the team's mounting injury list were DeSean Jackson, Roy Helu and Shawn Lauvao.

Even without these headliners, though, Washington's offense didn't miss a beat. Garnering 449 yards of total offense, the Redskins boasted the balanced attack that fans have long clamored for. Filling in for Griffin, Kirk Cousins completed 22-of-33 passes for 250 yards and two touchdowns. Among his favorite targets was one Niles Paul. In place of the injured Jordan Reed, Paul had a career-high eight receptions for 99 yards and one touchdown.

Joining Cousins in the backfield, Alfred Morris churned out 85 yards and two touchdowns before being lifted in the fourth quarter.

Not to be outdone, the Redskins' defense also turned in a memorable performance. With 10 sacks, Washington tied a franchise record. While the secondary did surrender its share of big plays, on the game the defense limited the Jags to 148 yards of offense.

With the Philadelphia Eagles next up on the team's schedule, the relief of ending the franchise's second-longest losing streak will soon be replaced with worry over the injury status of Griffin.
