19 Dec 10 Washington Redskins: Defining the Problems

Jonathan Daniel/Getty ImagesYesterday's 59 to 28 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles revealed all the flaws of the Redskins. 1. The defense is terrible.The Redskins can't stop the run or the pass. Fortunately for them, opponents have to stop running once they cross the goal line. The team has no Reebok New York Giants #27 Brandon Jacobs Realtree camo Jersey
pass rush outside of Brian Orakpo. The linebackers are not quick and lack coverage ability. The defense needs to be overhauled starting with the $100 million-dollar man. That shot of him laying on the turf in the third quarter said it all. 2. The receivers are weak.The Redskins receivers struggle to get separation and consistently drop passes. Two of the three interceptions that McNabb threw last night were because of the receivers. I like Santana Moss, but he is not a No. 1 receiver. He is a slot receiver on a good football team. Joey Galloway needs to be cut. He does absolutely nothing. Anthony Armstrong is a No. 3 or No. 4 on a playoff team. The rest of the receivers leave nothing to be desired. 3. The offensive line has to be rebuilt.Trent Williams is the one stud on the line. Donovan McNabb is Reebok New York Jets #6 Mark Sanchez Realtree camo Jersey




running for his life back there. The offensive line has been unable to keep the pass rush off of McNabb all season long. The only reason that McNabb has not been sacked more is because McNabb still has some elusiveness left in him. It appears that the best the Redskins have to look forward to is an 8-8 finish to the season. This article is also featured onSportFeen
