Why we have won 5 in a row

[OCSkinzFan]

It's not a coincidence that we've won 4 in a row and the Redskins defense has allowed four touchdowns in the last four games COMBINED.

Defense thats what wins championships

Defense has been great!

The Dirtbags and Clinton Portis have been great!

And in the last two games the 12th Man has been a HUGE factor!

Great stat! 4 TD's in 4 games? That's nothing. I would like to give additional props to our D-line. They are stepping up at just the right time.

When the whole D line is healthy they are a VERY effective group. They're going to have to step up the pressure again this week with Rogers and Chris Clemons on IR. Arrington is "questionable" right now, but it would be nice to see him get Clemons' snaps and just wreak havoc on 3rd downs.

nice.............

[Syllable]

Yup plus the 2 35 point games we put up.

That is a great stat OC, I think every team but the texans can win with their team only giving up one td a game

[halter91]

wait, you mean it's not the all white uniforms?

Man, It's been a lot of things, D line is playing the best it's played all year, the O line is blowing up defenders, we are putting pressure on the QB without blitzing every down and our O skill guys are making the easy plays!!

oh, and the white uni's!

The Defense has played Great but it was a effort from the whole team

Nothing's changed, Rogers will try to practice this week and if his arm respond's well, he may play.

Don't forget folks, we are also finally getting some turnovers, we have been on the positive side of the turnover ratio in these last 4 games. If we had managed that all season, we would probably have 12 wins and be home throughout the playoff's.

Defense has played awesome and once again Gregg Williams has done a masterful job of scheming/planning and maximizing the defense with injuries. They have been a huge reason for our success all season. I can't wait to see them next year with a big time threat coming from the defensive end position.

Bingo!

Plus Portis had not posted back-to-back 100 yard games until this streak. All phases of the game are clicking.

My bad, Rogers is not on the IR, but he is listed as questionable. That with the signing of CB Christian Morton to the active roster could mean something though.

The DB situation is not 100% airtight right now. Rogers may be out and Springs is still coming off an injured groin and the Eggels like to toss it more than a Peewee Herman at a dirty movie. The DL needs to step up again to keep the pressure off the CB's. We can't give McNabb all day.
