1. The Redskins have been able to make the necessary adjustments in the second half of games this season to shut down opposing offenses.
While the Redskins have played in a lot of close games this season (all nine have been a one-score game going into the fourth quarter), the defense has played some of their best ball in the third and fourth quarters this season.
In five different games this season, the Redskins haven’t allowed a season half touchdown. All five of those games just happen to be victories.
