The Redskins get the other quarterback on the ground

Positives!

Get out of here with your positives, and feel goods. Blah blah blah wins matter, not adjusted line yards.

/feels good to be ranked high in something.

We're doing something right? Oh hell yeah! Watching us sack the QB has been the highlight of the year so far for me.

I'd rather be winning ;) nice article though.

Hopefully we can start turning this defensive pressure into more badly-needed turnovers.

Let's hope so. We've been a little quiet on that front this year.

More proof that Kerrigan is already 10 times the more complete OLB than Orakpo...

Did you guys notice the Line Yards in each direction?

To the Left End - 4.89 ypc - our defense ranked 25th
To the Left Tackle - 3.88 ypc - ranked 14th
Up the Middle - 4.51 ypc - ranked 29th
To the Right Tackle - 2.96 ypc - ranked 3rd
To the Right End - 2.64 ypc - ranked 6th

Last time I checked... Orakpo plays over the Left Tackle, Kerrigan is over the Right Tackle, correct??

That's a pretty damn big disparity right there between Left End and Right End... 2.25 more ypc.

By the way... how about our "Up the Middle" defense?? Ouch Nose Tackles.
