IRVING, Texas - The Washington Redskins picked a good time for their first touchdown of the season.

They picked an even better time for the second.

Mark Brunell hit Santana Moss in stride for TD passes of 39 and 70 yards in the final 3:46 on Monday night, and the Redskins won on the road against the Dallas Cowboys for the first time in 10 years, beating their longtime NFC East rivals 14-13.

"People have been talking about the Redskins not scoring," said Moss, who finished with five catches for 159 yards. "But we got in the end zone."

The Redskins, who won their season opener over Chicago with three field goals, hadn't crossed the Cowboys 27 - and only got that far on the first drive. Faced with fourth-and-15, Brunell threw a spiral that Moss ran under in the end zone for the first touchdown.

Dallas then managed a quick first down, but Washington used its final two timeouts and a holding penalty against Flozell Adams erased another first-down play before the Cowboys punted. The Redskins got the ball back at their own 20, and on the second play, Brunell found Moss streaking past the Cowboys' secondary again for another TD with 2:35 left.

"I saw Moss blaze down the seam," Cowboys safety Roy Williams said. "I wasn't able to take the right position."

The Redskins (2-0) ended a four-game losing skid to Dallas and won for just the second time in 16 meetings. This was the first time Joe Gibbs beat Dallas coach Bill Parcells in their last nine games.

"It was one of the greatest moments in sports for me," said Gibbs, who has won three Super Bowls and two NASCAR championships.

Brunell, who in the second week already replaced Patrick Ramsey as Gibbs' starter, finished 20-of-34 for 291 yards and was sacked five times. But he had 178 of his yards on the two TD drives.

"There was a perfect example there with Mark," Gibbs said. "In the beginning of the game, you say, 'It's just not going to happen.' But we've got a bunch of people that worked hard and made it happen in the end."

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - It didn't look, sound or feel like home. Then again, it will be that way all season for the New Orleans Saints.The New York Giants had no complaints, though. Playing before 68,031 of their fans Monday night in the comfort of their own ballpark, the Giants beat the displaced Saints 27-10 in one of the most bizarre "home" settings in sports history.NFL nomads with no stadium after the damage to the Superdome and New Orleans caused by Hurricane Katrina, the Saints were given a home game here by the league. Historically more successful away from home under coach Jim Haslett (25-16 going in), they couldn't overcome critical mistakes in falling to 1-1.While they could be excused if their minds are elsewhere, Saints players have insisted their focus is fully on football on gameday. It looked that way in last week's upset of Carolina. It looked decidedly different Monday night.In the first half alone, the Saints committed 11 penalties for 72 yards, including an illegal contact by Sedrick Hodge that negated a third-down sack and set up the Giants' third touchdown.
