The defense is forcing a lot of turnovers every game. Then on the other side of the ball, the offense isn't turning the ball over. As Tandler says in this article, if this continues we should win more games than we lose.

There is one number that is not looking good on the defense and that is the amount of yards given up. I think we are over 300 yards a game. And that should not be the case.
Our secondary is suspect. Very suspect. Maybe they need time. But they need something.
Turnovers dont mean much when you are just giving the ball back with a blocked punt or a 3 and out.
The Skins had the chance to put the Rams away and we couldnt capitalize. Thanks to a blocked punt. _________________
