The Washington Football Team features a dominant defense in an offensive-driven league, and the unit will only get better this fall.
Last season, the organization worked its way into becoming the league's second-best defense.
The top spot is available for the taking thanks to multiple offseason moves, natural progression found within the group and a year of continuity under defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio, while other top units around the league should regress by varying levels.
Washington finished 7-9 in 2020 and captured an NFC East crown, albeit in the NFL's weakest division.
