The Redskins are trailing the Eagles 16-14 at halftime, but it could be a lot worse. They got a touchdown on a total Madden move. Quarterback Kirk Cousins threw a nice ball to Chris Thompson and he got a first down out of it, and that should have been it. This picture show what the end of the play should have looked like:

Somehow he escaped this tackle and the rest of the play looked like this:

He definitely used some sort of Madden cheat code to squeeze out of that sandwich tackle and he eventually scored the touchdown. He has 38 yards of total offense accounted for at halftime.
