DeAngelo Hall has career day during Redskins’ 17-14 win over Bears..

DeAngelo Hall was Jay Cutler’s worst nightmare on Sunday afternoon, as he tied an NFL record with 4 interceptions to help the Washington Redskins edge the Chicago Bears 17-14 from Soldier Field.
The Bears used a defensive turnover to score first, as D.J. Moore returned a tipped interception pass by Donovan McNabb 54 yards for a touchdown.
Washington evened it up on McNabb’s 24-yard touchdown pass to a wide open Santana Moss, who entered Sunday’s game ranked 4th in the NFL in receptions.
Graham Gano’s 46-yard field goal gave the Redskins their first lead of the day with 12:09 left in the 2nd quarter, but Jay Cutler answered with a 9-yard touchdown pass to Johnny Knox right before halftime.
In a wacky and bizarre second half, both teams combined 7 fumbles (3 lost), 4 interceptions & one defensive touchdown.
The highlight of the game was DeAngelo Hall’s spectacular one-handed interception deep into Redskins territory, as it was returned 92 yards for a touchdown.
Hall becomes the first NFL player to have 4 interceptions in a single game since Deltha O’Neal did it for Denver in 2001.
Chicago will have a bye next week & resumes play on November 7th as they’ll make a trip to Canada to face the winless Buffalo Bills.
