Let me try to put this in mathematical terms for everyone.

On average, the Redskins defense will be on the field for 65 plays per game. There are 16 games in the regular season. That means the defense is there to stop the opponent 1040 times. [Wow, does the IRS have a subliminal channel into the NFL?]


Here's my assessment of the way things might go next year:

If Ade JImoh is out there as a cornerback on 520 of the plays (half the snaps the defense takes), the Skins are in deep yogurt.

If he's out there 728 plays (three-quarters of the snaps the defense takes) we can begin to analyze who the Skins ought to take with their top=10 draft pick in the 2006 NFL draft.

If he is out there for all 1040 plays, Gregg Williams will be consulting with his clergyman to try to atone for whatever sin he may have committed that would have led to him being punished in this way.


But on special teams, Ade Jimoh is fine.
