Fans complaining about the offensive line in Washington seems like an annual rite of passage, so despite beating the Cardinals in Week 1, it’s little surprise to hear the standard hue and cry about how awful Washington’s front five are, and how they nearly sunk the team.
With Washington giving up 6 sacks - second only to the Giants, who ceded 7 - perhaps those grumbling fans have a point. That said, in watching the game, I was initially left with the impression that - with one or two notable exceptions - the line actually played pretty well.
