Week 14 | Washington, No. 31
Chances are Washington won’t be very good in their first year under head coach Ron Rivera. They should be better though if quarterback Dwayne Haskins is even mediocre in his second season. Their defensive front is loaded, and the 49ers saw how much of an impact that can have on a team. It’d be a surprise to see Washington sniff the postseason, but it’d also be a little surprising if they finished as the worst or second-worst team in the NFL.
Key quote:
“On defense, Ron Rivera’s squad has five first-round picks on its defensive line, including second overall pick Chase Young, but the secondary is very thin, and that could be the things that stops this team in its tracks in 2020.”
