Washington may only have two wins on the season, but their record isn't reflective of how well they play on defense, especially upfront rushing the passer. Washington has one of the best defensive fronts in football anchored by Chase Young, Montez Sweat, Jonathan Allen, Ryan Kerrigan and Da'Ron Payne. Washington is ranked No. 1 in the NFL against the pass, limiting opponents to under 200 passing yards per game (185.6). They've generated 27 sacks, and have seven different players with at least 2.0 sacks.
"They generate a lot of pressure with those front four," Patricia said. "And I think they've got a wave of them. They can kind of rotate them in. Kerrigan is a great player, been doing it for a long time. They have a lot of young guys up front with Chase Young and Sweat on the edge, those guys are going to roll in there and go.
"Upfront they are very, very good in the pass rush they just kind of can get into the pocket and get after the quarterback."
Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford said Washington is probably the best defensive front they'll play all year. Detroit's offensive line certainly has a good test this week.
"I think five total first-round picks or former first-round picks up there," Lions center Frank Ragnow said of Washington. "Just a bunch of talented dudes across the board playing really hard, playing good football, really good pass rushers. Definitely a big challenge for us upfront this week, for sure."
