Redskins Halftime Takeaways: Good early, rough later

At the half, the Washington Redskins are in trouble. They started the game well, but since the end of the first quarter, they have struggled to stay disciplined and keep pace in this game.

The Redskins offense looked really solid in that first quarter. The team came in with a creative gameplan that allowed them to move the ball. They gave return-man Steven Sims a handful of carries to take advantage of his speed and elusiveness. The misdirection plays they used kept the Cowboys defense off balance.

Additionally, Adrian Peterson had a really good first half.
