The Redskins have given up the second-fewest yards and the seventh-fewest points through three games, but what does that really mean?
The Seattle Seahawks, generally considered the gold standard for NFL defenses, have allowed nine yards per game more than the Redskins have, and they've allowed offenses to score two more points in total through three games. Granted, the Seahawks played the first two games of the season without All-Pro safety Kam Chancellor, but ignore that for now.
So how much stock should we put into the Redskins' solid numbers on defense through three games?
