Not the case in 17-18-19 tbhFWiW their defense was good and ours was bad.

Dec 20, 2020 · Promise does not make greatness. Not on a team that is 6-8 with a handful of good players and a lot left to learn about winning big games. Being called the best defense in football did little for ...
And by the way, this was a topic on a WFT station that covers the team that had this same discussion. They brought them beating 1 good quarterback all year and that was Ben, who we now know isn't even Ben anymore. That's the agenda.
They gave up the 6th fewest points in 2019Washington's defense is a product of the fact that they didn't play against good quarterbacks last year. Major regression incoming.
For some reason, them going 7-9 against a CFL schedule last year helped build this mythology that you can build a competitive team around a DLine. You can't, and Washington sucks.
10 points a game is the difference between the 25th ranked scoring team and the first lollol.....10 more points a game isn’t much? Sure buddy. Whatever you say.
Points allowed is a terrible metric, they've had back-to-back years of easy schedules, and also the past two years doesn't really matter.They gave up the 6th fewest points in 2019
4th fewest in 2020
How many years does it take to not just be a fluke
10 points a game is the difference between the 25th ranked scoring team and the first lol
10 points a game is kinda huge
Very good point. I've noticed that the Commanders have been getting overhyped like every other NFC East champion the past 15 years......they get overhyped just to not make the playoffs the next year. I expect that to continue.I hear a lot of talk about the WFT vaunted defense, now I know they beat us basically with no OL and no Dak and our defense was terrible, that made it easy for them but when looking at the common opponents outside the division these are the points given up:
Dallas: Az 38 WFT: 30
Cle 49 34
Bal 34 31
LA 20 30
Sea 38 20
Add to that the only good QB they beat was Rothlisberger who wasn't even that good last season
They keep playing bad teams and bad quarterbacks......This year they have Herbert, Allen, Ryan, Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Dak, Brady, Russell Wilson and Derek Carr. If they can shut those guys down then that defense is LEGIT. They are going to get tested especially that secondary. Their schedule looks harder than the Buccaneers.....They gave up the 6th fewest points in 2019
4th fewest in 2020

So you saw this on some homer take, fell in love with it, thought you would be smart and post it on here, and then got hammered and laughed at by all of us on here?
LOL. You link to an article that refutes the Skins have the "best defense in the league". No one here suggested that. They had a really good defense. This article basically says the same thing.
The second article you link also concludes the Skins defense is very good, just maybe not elite yet until they get a consistent pass rush.
These articles don't support your claim, which was essentially to say that the Skins D isn't all that good.
When you are repeatedly in the top 10 defensesIf I only keep the bad teams and bad qbs under 30 and allow almost ever good qb and good team 30 points a game at what point does it come to quality of the opponent?
You don’t repeatedly have a top 10 defense without being goodThey keep playing bad teams and bad quarterbacks......This year they have Herbert, Allen, Ryan, Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Dak, Brady, Russell Wilson and Derek Carr. If they can shut those guys down then that defense is LEGIT. They are going to get tested especially that secondary. Their schedule looks harder than the Buccaneers.....
Top 6 defense in back to back years and they sux?Points allowed is a terrible metric, they've had back-to-back years of easy schedules, and also the past two years doesn't really matter.
Their defense is good. To act as if it's capable of carrying their offense enough to make them a contender is laughable.
I'll say it again. The defense is overrated, they suck.
The team sucks because their offense is busch league. The defense is good, like I said.Top 6 defense in back to back years and they sux?
That’s a warped fantasy
