Not only had the Patriot not lost a game, they hadn’t even trailed in one.
So of course, it was Colt McCoy and Steven Sims and Washington breaking that streak.
Sims, an undrafted rookie receiver from Kansas, just took a 65-yard run to the end zone to give Washington a 7-0 lead. Coupled with McCoy starting at quarterback and it working, it’s a surprising start for a team that hasn’t won a game.
It was a bit of a sloppy start for the Patriots, who are playing in front of a surprisingly partisan crowd in the nation’s capital.
Of course, they immediately responded with a touchdown drive, with Tom Brady hitting Julian Edelman for a what would have been a tying touchdown, except new kicker Mike Nugent missed the extra point.
