Re: How will our defense hold up next year?
So where have you been for the past 5 months?

Re: How will our defense hold up next year?
2011 Reg Season:
32nd defense - Green Bay Packers 31st defense - New England Patriots 27th defense - New York Giants 24th defense - New Orleans Saints 13th defense - Washington Redskins 2011 Offenses 1) New Orleans Saints 2) New England Patriots 3) Green Bay Packers 8) New York Giants 16) Washington Redskins 2011 Defense Rankings Okay, clearly there's always talk about defense winning championships. And defense is clearly important and we need to address this. BUT before we get carried away, our defense was GOOD ENOUGH to compete with the top teams in the league above. The more important point is, our offense is traditionally what has lost games. And the risky moves for #1 picks and overpaying WR's -- I believe they were well spent for high risk-high reward franchise QB and #1-2 WR. I would say that RG3-Garcon will do more for our team than the best secondary in the planet. For example, if we became the best defense in the league, we'd give up 8 less points per game. If we became the best offense in the league, we'd score 17 more points per game, much more impact. * Baltimore, San Francisco and Denver had great defenses, but inevitably collapsed Last edited by ethat001; 03-15-2012 at 10:21 PM. |

We were the 16th ranked offense with Rex ad beck. Imagine what RGIII will do

Our Defense will be fine as long as the Offense doesn't constantly put them in bad situations like it did last year and as long as our front 7 can stay healthy.

Re: How will our defense hold up next year?
Our defense will be interesting next year with almost a new secondary. If we keep Fletcher I like our chances to be better. Jarvis Jenkins being healthy will be interesting if he's anything like his rookie year. The dude better be wearing a knee brace on both knees. It alose depends on Griffin, because if he is anything close to as advertised, that makes our Team better cause the defense will be more motivated.

Re: How will our defense hold up next year?
I think it's a little premature to be down on the D.
LL and Atogwe were hardly on the field last year, so is there really much of a loss there? Still a good chance Fletcher returns. Jenkins is back, that's a plus. Hall is still here last I checked. |

You're right Matty. I'm sure that's all he was saying. We're such close friends he wants to know what's been happening in my personal life over the past 5 months. He can just send me a private message, and we'll catch up on all of my wild worldly adventures.
