Losing to Tennessee is bad enough, but am I reading this drive chart correctly to say that Washington got the ball on the Redskins' 40, advanced 25 yards to the Tennessee 35 and then . . . punted while losing in the second half? And that for their trouble Tennessee wound up with the ball on their 27 yard line?
