The Redskins dropped their fifth game of the year: a 33-7 defeat to the New England Patriots.

Unlike previous outings, this game wasn’t a four-quarter demolition; the Washington Redskins held their own in the first quarter, and they were within one score of the Patriots when halftime hit.

But Bill Belichick demonstrated the mammoth gap between him and Jay Gruden after the half. The Patriots made adjustments and coasted ahead, while the Redskins failed to get anything going on offense. Their defense, by extension, started to collapse.

Now, the Redskins are 0-5, and they have some duds to thank. Here are the studs and duds from the Washington Redskins 33-7 loss to the New England Patriots.
