LANDOVER, Md. -- Kirk Cousins still has thrown for more interceptions than touchdown passes in the NFL. And it's going to take some work to get his 4-9 record as a starter above the .500 mark.
At least the earnest, soft-spoken, fourth-year quarterback for the Washington Redskins now has a signature victory, thanks to a fourth-quarter comeback and a zero-turnover performance.
Cousins capped a 90-yard drive with a go-ahead, 4-yard TD toss to Pierre Garcon with 26 seconds left Sunday, lifting the Redskins past the Philadelphia Eagles 23-20 on Sunday.
"That final drive -- I wasn't capable of doing that when I came in the league as a rookie. It takes time. It takes failure. It takes learning from experiences," said Cousins, who earned the starting QB job ahead of 2012 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Robert Griffin III in preseason. "A culmination of, I guess it would be, three-plus seasons' worth of work got me to a point where I was able to make the necessary plays on that drive."
Sam Bradford threw three second-half touchdown passes for the Eagles (1-3), who trailed 13-0 at halftime. Their new kicker, Caleb Sturgis, missed an extra-point attempt and a 33-yard field-goal try -- four big points in what turned out to be a three-point, back-and-forth game.
"It's tough knowing I didn't do my part," said Sturgis, signed last week to replace the injured Cody Parkey.
Starting at its own 10 with a little more than six minutes remaining, Washington (2-2) used a balance of runs -- five for 41 yards -- and passes -- Cousins went 6 for 10 for 44 yards -- to work its way down the field to take the lead for good.
"A lot of dinking and dunking and shallow crosses and running game," Eagles defensive coordinator Bill Davis said.
Cousins' last three completions went to Garcon, for a total of 32 yards.
"He is one of the greatest competitors on this football team," coach Jay Gruden said about Garcon, "and people feed off of that."
On the winning score, the Eagles sent a blitz at Cousins, but he put the football in a tight window, and Garcon did the rest.
"I felt hits from all over, from everybody," said Garcon, who played the closing minutes despite what Washington said was a sprained knee. "I looked and I was glad I was on the other side of the (goal) line, instead of, you know, a yard short."
Cousins finished 31 for 46 for 290 yards, the one TD -- and, most importantly for a guy with a pair of two-interception games already this season, no turnovers. He did fumble a snap in the first half at Philadelphia's 1, but recovered it and plunged forward for a touchdown, with the help of a push from running back Matt Jones.
It was the first rushing TD allowed by Philadelphia this season.
Bradford was 15 for 28 for 270 yards, with touchdown passes of 62, 39 and 10 yards. He entered the game with three TD tosses all season and hadn't completed a pass of at least 40 yards until one that went for 45 to Nelson Agholor in the second quarter. Symbolic of the way things are going for coach Chip Kelly's much-ballyhooed system this season, though, Agholor couldn't handle a pitch from Ryan Mathews on a reverse on the very next play, resulting in a fumble.
DeMarco Murray, who missed last week's victory over the Jets with a leg injury, gained 36 yards on eight carries. He voiced disappointment with the way he's being used by Kelly.
After leading the NFL in rushing last season for Dallas, Murray joined Philadelphia as a free agent, and has 47 yards on 29 carries so far.
Asked if he's getting the ball enough, Murray replied: "No, I'm not. I don't think I am. But it's how the plays are being called. I love this offense, I love playing with these guys. It's just how it is."

This octagonal tower was built in the 19th century as part of a Victorian pleasure park, when there were plans to develop the village of Jersey Marine, near Swansea, into a holiday resort. The tower originally contained a camera obscura, taking advantage of the impressive views. In later years it became derelict and roofless, but was completely restored and reopened in 2004, and is now the bridal suite for the neighbouring hotel.
This jersey was worn by Bullpen Coach Juan Lopez on April 13th in a game versus Milwaukee Brewers. The New York Mets are a professional baseball team based in the borough of Queens in New York City, New York. The Mets were founded as an expansion franchise in 1960 and began play in 1962. The club came into existence as a replacement for New York's two previous National League teams, the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants, who relocated to California following the 1957 season. As an interesting historical note, there was an earlier baseball club called the New York Metropolitans which played in the short-lived American Association during the 1880s. While the defunct 19th century team is not related to the current incarnation of the Mets, its moniker did serve as the inspiration for the modern day National League franchise. For the first two years of its existence, the team played its home games at the historic Polo Grounds in Upper Manhattan, which it shared with the New York Jets. In 1964, both teams moved into newly constructed Shea Stadium, where the Mets stayed through the 2008 season. In 2009, the club moved into Citi Field, located adjacent to the former site of Shea Stadium. During their history, the Mets have won two World Series titles (1969 and 1986), four National League pennants (1969, 1973, 1986, 2000), and five National League East titles (1969, 1973, 1986, 1988, 2006). The Mets also qualified for the postseason as the National League Wild Card team in 1999 and 2000. The Mets have appeared in more World Series — four — than any other expansion team in Major League Baseball history. Their two championships equal the tally of the Toronto Blue Jays and Florida Marlins for the most titles among expansion teams. The Mets held the New York baseball attendance record for 29 years. They broke the Yankees' 1948 record by drawing nearly 2.7 million in 1970. The Mets broke their own record five times before the Yankees took it back in 1999.
Another stellar day to be in New Jersey......
This morning just south of Newark Airport on the New Jersey Turnpike a dump truck tipped over beneath an overpass and caught fire and possibly damaged the bridge overhead AND possibly ruptured a gas line beneath the roadway. The Turnpike is completely closed and will be for possibly hours. If you have ever been in this part of New Jersey you know that this is not a good thing.
All the roadways in the area are now bottled up (including down here in Edison some 10 miles south).
I was going to post some pictures from my Las Vegas trip but I have to leave my lunch break early so I can take an alternate route to my FedEx pickup stop in Cranbury.
I will not be directly affected by this Linden mess but it will mean traffic looking for another way to get to where they are going.
I hate New Jersey !!!!!!!
