2001-15th
2000-16th
1999-29th
Here are the Defensive Scoring numbers:
2003 - 22nd
2002 - 25th
2001 - 1st
2000 - 20th
1999 - 20th

Here is an excerpt from the press release on Blanche & Zorn's hiring: "Blache joined the Redskins in 2004 after five seasons as Chicago’s defensive coordinator. In both cities his units earned a reputation – with the statistics to back it up – as solid, aggressive forces. At Washington, he shares credit for the defensive unit being ranked in the League’s top 10 for three of his four seasons (8th, 9th, 3rd). The story was similar in Chicago, where Blache’s Bears defense was a consistent hard-hitting group, regularly being ranked in the League’s top 10."

I'm not arguing he did a good job here as D-Line coach, but based on the actual statistics both statements are flat out wrong.

My hope is Meeks will be the HC and calling the defense. Blanche can be the DC on paper and D-Line coach, if the stats from TO & I are correct. Am I missing something here?
