Cole Holcomb looks like he's a decent football player....
Fair point, but it still comes back to playing the 2 best running qbs in the NFL. I agree, well I hope, we start to climb the rankings

In their ranking system, QB scrambles don't count as rushing plays. Therefore the WFT run defense is ranked #13. After this last week the WFT is now 11th in rush yards allowed.
They also have the passing defense ranked #2. They are also #2 in passing yards allowed.
The Cowboys made the defense look good. Hopefully they can keep it up against the similarly woeful Giants (although somehow we managed to lose to them anyway).
The team is 11th in opponent scoring per game at 23.6 points/gm. If the offense wasn't contributing to that number they'd be even better.
With an offense as inept as Washington's, 23.6 points/gm won't be good enough to win most games (Washington is ranked #30 in scoring offense at 19 ppg).
HC Ron Rivera on the safety position: I wanted to give [Jeremy] Reaves an opportunity. I’m one of those guys that—if you come to training camp, you work your butt off, you do everything that you’re supposed to, you deserve that opportunity before anybody else. That’s what I was kind of doing with Jeremy.
He earned that right. He earned my respect as far as having gone through camp, not complaining, and doing things the right way. I wanted to give him a chance to be a part of the 53 and see where he is.”
