The Washington Redskins were barely able to beat the Miami Dolphins in NFL Week 6. Here’s a look at three instant takeaways from the game.

The Redskins were finally able to get a victory on Sunday afternoon. They defeated the Dolphins, but they won in less than convincing fashion.

After holding a 17-3 lead at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the team nearly blew the lead. They let the Dolphins, who hadn’t scored a point in the second half all season, to rattle off 13 unanswered points. It wasn’t pretty, and it left a sour taste in the mouths of many Redskins fans following the victory.

The Redskins should’ve won this game big, especially based on how the game flow was going. Until they figure out how to play a full, 60-minute game, they’re going to have a lot of trouble winning just as they did against this Miami squad that may be one of the worst in NFL history.

With that said, it wasn’t all bad. After all, they did win. Here’s a look at three instant takeaways after the game starting with a man that stood out on the defensive side of the ball.
