Stud: As always seems to be the case, it’s Trent Williams (+4.4). The former first rounder is the team’s best offensive lineman by a distance, and has allowed just five hurries all year.
Dud: Just what has happened to center Kory Lichtensteiger (-25.0)? He was impressive enough last year, earning a positive grade, but he’s performed as badly as any lineman in the league.
Summary: While the team would have been hoping for more of an instant impact from Brandon Scherff, the real issue has been at the aforementioned center spot. Simply put, your center should not have given up 13 quarterback disruptions after four games, when he gave up just 16 total in 2014.
We lead the league in rushing and we're ranked the 32d run blocking defense?

I could care less what the rankings are - all that matters is that the O line is getting better and there is no doubt in my mind that only Trent and Brandon are certain to be starters here next season ...
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)

We don't disagree... My commentary, however, just points out the absurdity of the site claiming that the #1 ranked rushing offense has the #32 ranked rushing o-line....
Ummm... No.

They must have our RBs rated through the roof.

How are they going to get better if we only bring back two starters?

Yea, because Morgan Moses and Spencer Long have been downright awful. Are you actually watching the games? Asking for a friend.

Our offensive line is not playing badly to be honest - I think the line will continue to evolve because there are just a bunch of guys that don't suit what Scot wants in O linemen here - I'm also disappointed in how Kory L is playing this season he's not done a good job so far

as someone else pointed to - are these guys actually looking at the games - this seems like a pre-disposed deal to me - it's the Redskins, they are terrible
we're not good but we are getting better - it's only been 4 games and we're only 2-2 but there's been a lot to like
we did not play well against the giants and they were up to not go 0-3 - we need to lift our game and cut down on the penalties
I think the players and coaches deserve credit for how well we are running the ball and defending the run - we are improving ...

How'd they rank the Skins 12th overall if the componants were near the very bottom of the league? How do you add a bunch of 'D's' and come up with a 'B+'?

The 12th was last year's ranking. We finished 31st overall in this ranking.
