12. Washington Redskins (2-4) Last week: 14

To be honest with you, the only reason the Redskins moved up this week is due to the fact that the bottom four in the rankings are dreadful. Should they be proud that their two wins came against backup quarterbacks (Matt Flynn and Josh McCown)? You can tell that RGIII is getting more mobile which should be a real concern for defenses going forward. HOWEVER, with that said, their defense is abysmal. They gave up 41 points to the Bears (31 of which Cutler was not present for). Their reward this week: A p’d off Peyton Manning and the Broncos.
