One touchdown in eight quarters of football!! No room to complain there.

The defense gave up 9 points. I'll take that every week. Yes, we need more turnovers but I ike that we are not giving up big plays.

Re: Defense Is Back, Really!

Defense played superb, i think the one standout though that really surprised me was Carlos Rogers. He was always on the receiver as soon as he touched the ball, and from what I could see he had is guy on lock the whole game. Good job all around though

Carlos did a nice job last night, I'll give him credit.

I am guilty of cursing Carlos.

I do think he does well out there, and other teams tend to pick on him a little bit at times.

You know what really worked well last night. Jamming the receivers and not giving the 7 yard cushion that we usually give. From what I saw it really made a deference and I hope we continue to play like that.

Re: Defense Is Back, Really!

The Carlos haters only mention him when he does something bad, they expect perfection form him because of being a high draft pick.
Remember they said Smoot would be the starter opposite Springs by now.

I do believe Mr. Carlos gave up two first downs on two 4th downs attempts to shitty WRs. I'm still not getting the performance of a top 10 pick and I want my money back.

I don't get arguments like this. Carlos underachieved and now he's starting to play well. The fact that people pointed out his deficiencies last year - myself included - doesn't mean they aren't thrilled now to see him stepping his game up.

Re: Defense Is Back, Really!

The defense did an outstanding job, I'm proud of them. Leigh Torrence is my dog. He took Ade Jimoh's spot and kept it moving. I'm out here in Honolulu and I expect to see many Redskins out here for the Pro Bowl. C'mon Saden1, Carlos got beat for a couple 1st downs, believe me, he's trying his best and he will get better as the season goes on. Trust me, he's a great corner!
