Defense is innately volatile year-to-year but Washington's is dramatically worse than 2020 despite not losing pieces and even adding premier CB Will Jackson III and drafting LB Jamin Davis in Round 1. Through 3 games, they are 29th in DVOA whereas they finished 3rd last season. Adjusted DVOA suggests they are closer to the middle which seems most accurate. Nevertheless, this isn't as daunting a matchup as it seems for Pitts and the Falcons' offense.
Kyle Pitts' targets have dipped in each of the past two games but his snaps have gone up. In a dome game against a Washington offense that may be competent with Curtis Samuel back, Pitts should be relied on to carry the load and attack their real weakness: Linebacker, and Safety. Pitts is a pure mismatch for the 2nd level of Washington's defense.
