The Washington Redskins lead the NFC East, but they’re still embarrassing

What does it mean to be a leader? If you're Sam Bradford, you trap everyone in the shower to give a pre-game speech. If you're the Cowboys, it means you inspire your teammates with domestic assault. If you're the Giants, you hoard free stuff. But that's not really leadership. Leadership is setting an example, leadership is doing what must be done in the face of adversary, leadership is emboldening those around you to follow you. So far this season, the leaders of the NFC East, off and on the field, are the Washington Redskins.

Washington Redskins (6-7)

Last Week: Took a 14-0 lead against the Bears and then blew it, letting Chicago tie it up at 21 all in the third quarter.
