No. 2 – Gaffes prevent the defense from realizing its true potential

Washington’s defense played well at times against the Giants. Kendall Fuller had a clutch interception — his fourth of the year in just three games — and the defensive front generated enough pressure to make Daniel Jones uncomfortable in certain spots.

With that being said, the untimely gaffes continue to persist for the Washington Football Team. Whether it’s in the linebacker group or the secondary, bad angles, miscommunications, and indecisiveness remain problems. Those problems are chipping away at the unit’s viability.
