Lynnell welcomes on former Redskins cornerback Fred Smoot to break down what’s gone wrong in the Commanders’ defensive backfield, as the unit has surrendered 515 yards against offenses using motion in their two losses — including 328 against the Falcons. Smoot explains the mentality of a player when these miscues happen, the key differences in Washington’s defensive plan against the Packers versus the Falcons, and whether the scheme needs to be simplified. They also assess how the pass rush performed and Smoot shares his evaluation of Mikey and Quan Martin.
