I listed Top 8 scoring defenses in league, which one do you think is best NOTE: This is not a quiz, it is an opinion poll.
They are, but they have a slight advantage....Teams go into game against the Redskins knowing they only need to score 8 points to win the game....
Washington also didn't play any decent offensive teams in the first six weeks, then they had the Bye. They played Tampa, Cleveland, Baltimore, Giants, Cowboys and Bears. They're good on defense, though. No doubt about it... They shut down the Packers in the second half of week 8. We couldn't do anything.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Philly_Freak93)</div><div class='quotemain'>why isnt New England a choice?</div> These are top 8 scoring defenses, if you are not in top 8 you are not best defense
I factored out points scored on offenses. i.e. if your offense threw a pick returned for TD i did not factor that into calculation. It made washington #1, baltimore #2, etc, etc, and no we have not established philly as #2 defense.
