In your case last year you faced 3 top ten scoring offenses from last year Philly, Minesota and GB you lost twice to Philly and 1 to Gb you won the Minesota game but that was the last game of the season and it didn't count to them they had reached the playoff coudn't win the division and couldnt get home filed.
From the 10- 15 best scoring offense you faced Cin and Pit you lost to both of them. Your other wins came against NYG (22), TB (23), DET(24), SF(30) and CHI(32) not even a top 20 in that list.
Your turnover ratio was -1 (26 takeaways vs 27 givaways)that was a tie for 20th spot you had the second best third down converstion with 31% wich was 1 of the only good things your team had.
The other point is that you had the 31st scoring offense so each team new they didn't had to score 30 points (15 points average) to beat you, just get ahead take time from the clock and let your offense play catch up. They didnt need to risk it wich explains the low amount of turnovers you made.
So don't read to much to the 3rd best D because it ain't real like Dallas wasn't the best D of 2003 it was only the D that allowed the lest amount of yards but it sure didn't represent the most feared and most dificult to score defense.
Your team its what it is a 6-10 team untill it proves otherwise like Dallas is and don't hang and put the 3rd Def in a pedestal like is the greatest thing. Hey you won only 6 games snap out of it. Who cares how good was your defense if it only helped you win 6 games.
Look to the future and try to demand more of your team than STATS because who cares if you have the best STATS QB or D or OFF if you won't be playing in January at the endof the line the only thing that matters is the W.

Number one, I think this crap you just posted was quite idiotic, but hey, you're a Dallas fan, why should I expect anything different? Number two, your pathetic team was also 6-10, so I expect you really have no room to talk. Oh, I'm sure you'll cling onto beating us twice last year, but that certainly doesn't make Dallas a better team - just makes them lucky they were able to hang on at the end of a very close game against a losing team...and lucky enough to score at the end of the last game to beat a losing team. Thinking back on it, that's quite pathetic to hold on to such stats...maybe you should take your own advice.
I'm also sure you'll bring up beating us for the past several seasons...but then again..that would go against you saying to look into the future. I guess that's because, Dallas really doesn't look to have much of a future...maybe a future of rebuilding once Parcells hangs up coaching for the last time.
Secondly, I said nothing about the offense...so you bringing up the offense was pointless. Most all of us 'Skins fans realized that; I commented on the Dr. Z's "bad defense" comment...which is obviously a dumb statement to make all around. I don't really care how you try to explain how a defensive ranking of #3 overall in the entire league does not suggest that a defense is good. Also, I am not "hanging on" to last year....I'm simply stating that until proven different this year, there is no rational thought or analysis that could actually be taken seriously, that would suggest the Redskins has a bad defense. Certainly, we could conclude something different with the offense....but then again...I never commented on that.
I suggest not drinking the Silver and Blue kool-aid and posting on here.
