Re: Problems with the Defense, IMHO

If you take away the plays he alone has given up you have a win against the Bucs last week. Agree? Just look at how he has fallen to all time low in covering the 2# wideouts. Not the 1#. The people that are scoring on him are no-names. The loss of Smoot is definitely felt at this juncture. But no reason crying over spilled milk. This team needs a face lift. Starting with the secondary and working its way to the WRs.

The stats don't lie. The Redskins have been the most balanced team on offense and defense most of the season. What has happened is, everyone anticipates the blitz and Williams is not changing his approach.

Remember, Football games are won and lost in the trenches. After watching our team play the last few weeks there can be no doubt our lines (both offense & defense) need shock treatment. Problem today: that ugly head called lack of pass rush.
