LANDOVER, Md., Aug. 17 (UPI) -- Tom Brady got one touchdown and Antowain Smith ran for another, leading the New England Patriots to a 20-13 win over the Washington Redskins.
Showing he has recovered from a shoulder injury that hampered him late last season, Brady connected with David Patten on an 85-yard scoring strike late in the first quarter. He completed 9-of-18 passes for 145 yards.
Smith, who is trying to rebound from a disappointing 2002 campaign, scored on a five-yard run 3:29 into the contest. He carried seven times for 33 yards.
Patrick Ramsey, who enters the season as the Redskins' starter, played the first half and went 13-of-24 for 149 yards and an interception.
Trung Canidate, acquired in an off season trade from St. Louis, ran six yards for a touchdown and John Hall kicked two field goals for the Redskins.
