Yeah, and the Skins were losing even when those guys were in the line-up.
I beleive in the importance of good D, but without a good offense to go along with it, it doesn't mean much in TODAY's NFL.
The NFL is much more offense-orriented these days that they came up with so many rules so the the fans at home and in the stadiums can see more TDs. No "touching" after 5 yards, no horse collar, no "touching" the face mask, too many pass-interference calls, protecting the QB too much...etc.
We can go on and on about who would have a better D if it wasn't for injuries. But we all know which of the two has a beter offense that can actually score.
