The defense improved greatly last year. Had it not been for the blow coverages by the secondary throughout the 2011 season, that 13th ranking would have easily been a top ten ranking. The defensive front and linebackers played well last year. But the safeties had injuries and the corner backs gave up a lot of big plays in the passing game. Hopefully with new additions at the safety positions and with Raheem Morris coaching the defensive backs, it will help the Redskins move into the top ten in defense this year.
