"When Santana Moss lined up with 1 minute 15 seconds left in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the New England Patriots, he should have been in a comfortable, familiar spot. He was the Washington Redskins' slot receiver, stationed off the line of scrimmage — in this case, the New England 5-yard line — to the right of quarterback Rex Grossman. He knew he would run an out route toward the right pylon, and if Grossman could roll to his right and come free, the two could connect for a tying touchdown.

For a moment, that looked to be what happened. In the next moment, an official threw a flag and the tying touchdown became an offensive pass interference penalty against Moss. Two plays later, Grossman's final pass bounced off Moss's hands and into those of Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo for a clinching interception."
