The Intersection of Joe & Alex

Back on November 18th, Redskins QB Alex Smith was sacked in a game against the Texans. As his right leg was caught in the ground, he suffered a vicious fracture of his tibia and fibula.

It reminded Redskins fans of the ugly injury of former QB Joe Theismann against the Giants when he suffered a career ending broken leg after getting sacked by Lawrence Taylor.

It happened 33 years to the day, with the same losing score of 23-21 in both games.

Hopefully, Smith makes a full recovery.
