Two big problems with Williams' defense.
1. Everyone recognizes the lack of pressure from the front four. Rushing only four never seems to be enough, which is a major problem. The Redskins desperately need to address this. Is the solution switching to 3-4 and having Arrington rush? I'm sure Williams has considered that option and even utilizes it occasionally. But the base defense remains the 4-3 missing the key ingredient of Cornelius Griffin inside. This should be the #1 priority in the offseason, addressed through the draft.
2. Blitzing with safeties leaves the corners on islands for a few seconds. That's okay when your corners are Champ Bailey, Fred Smoot, or Shawn Springs. It's not okay when it's Walt Harris and rookie Carlos Rogers covering, who get burned for huge plays.
