I did a little sorting by columns on the 3rd link I posted and our D also:
*has the fewest penalty yards in the NFL, by a lot. 111 for us, next fewest is Indy with 128.
*is 2nd to NE in 3rd down % (opponents are 18/55, 32.7%)
*is 2nd in yds/play to Pittsburgh at 4.3/play.

It goes by average yards, not total.
Thank you.
Still a long way to go, but as of now I guess some people at Redskins Park really do know what they're doing. ;)

I told my buddy (Boys fan) that if Romo plays like that against a team who isn't one of the 3 worst in the league they'll get destroyed.
Oh hell yeah...if Romo had turned the ball over six times against the Skins, we would've hung 40+ on the Cowpukes!

I just looked at our past opponents current offensive rankings (http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?tabSeq=2&statisticCategory=GAME_STATS&conf=ALL&role=TM&season=&seasonType=REG):
Lions are 13th
Eagles are 14th
Giants are 16th
Dolphins are 19th
It helps show that our defense isn't beating up on a bunch of terrible offensive teams. I'm sure both the Lions and the Giants were ranked a little better before they played us.

We've had a bye week as well. Most teams have not. That effects total yards. That barometer is a little more accurate as the season progresses.
I agree with everyone that feels that Green Bay in Lambeau is going to be a challenge. I think about Green Bay atleast once an hour. They are similar on offense to Detroit in that they are pass happy because they cant run. But their Left tackle cant be worse than Detroit's.
I saw alot of play action in their game against Chicago. will they try that against us? and will it work....
Thats weard I think of them every 59 minutes.

Total is factored in it averages by how many games you have played Redskins total yards given up is divided by 4 and everyone else by 5.
