Redskins-Cards Defensive Review: Fred Smoot Benched?

[GMScud]

The lame cushion Smoot game Boldin on his TD reiterated all I need to know about the guy. He's just not very good. I resisted this notion for a while, but it's pretty evident.

Great breakdown GTripp.

Smoot has to give Boldin a cushion cause Boldin will toss him aside like a rag doll. Bottom line is we gave 17 to a pretty damn good offense. The defesne also held down Brees. Look what he did to Denver last week? We're certainly not the 85 Bears but we're bending but not breaking. So far I give this defense a B+.

I never said the D overall looked bad. I was just commenting on Smoot. He hasn't played well this year and Blache has obviously noticed.

As a whole, the D has played well. The tipped passes and turnovers as well as the overall pass D have been damn good. Springs and 'Los both at full go are a really friggin solid tandem.
