His first play resulted into a fumble and a defensive touchdown that sealed the Lions second victory of the season.
During the previous Washington possession McNabb threw into triple coverage which resulted in an interception. Shanahan was quoted saying after the game he believed Rex Grossman gave the team a better chance in that situation, which was a two minute drive.
