We made the move to increase saks, so we better get more sacks soon or else this move will be a waste. So far this preseason we have not seen an increase in sacks. I am hoping Hasslett is just hiding his bread and butter plays for Dallas.
I am still concerned about Andre Carter, he still looks like he is constantly behind the play. His mental part of the game is not there yet. I am hoping he will catch up and get comfortable.

Washington Redskins' defense: New scheme installed to increase turnovers
Much to Shanahan's delight, the Redskins produced eight turnovers in the first three preseason games, generally considered the most important games for evaluating players and choosing the opening 53-man roster.
"We had eight in [the first] three games," Shanahan said. "If you did that for the season it'd be 42, 421/2. I think Green Bay led the NFL last year with 40, so you feel pretty good."
Hall became the first Redskins player with two interceptions in the preseason since safety Sean Taylor had three before the 2004 season.
"And the thing is we haven't run any of Has's defenses," Hall said. "We've just been out there playing vanilla, not trying to show nothing. Just wait 'til we start the season and start running all this stuff we've been working on from the start. It'll be on then. It's scary."
