What an improved defense you guys have.
I knew you’d be running your dick suckers, but I must say you were right today. Terrible effort from the defense. Worse they’ve been this year

Even a blind dog finds a leg to hump on occasion. Terry was just biding his time. And his real issue has nothing to do with our defense, much like a lot of supposed Redskins fans.

The Minnesota Vikings’ hot start was just good enough to pull off a 38-30 win over the Washington Redskins on Sunday.

With Case Keenum at the helm, the Vikings put up 35 points through the first 30 minutes of play to take a 35-3 lead heading into the third quarter. Due in large part to two second-half interceptions from Keenum, Washington was able to climb back into the game, but their efforts were too little, too late.

Fueling the Redskins’ second-half surge, quarterback Kirk Cousins punched in three touchdowns (two rushing) on top of his 327 passing yards. Veteran tight end Vernon Davis and wide receiver Jamison Crowder led the team in receiving with 74 yards apiece.

While Vikings’ Stefon Diggs had his fair share of highlight plays, his running mate Adam Thielen stole the show. Thielen recorded eight receptions for a season-high 188 receiving yards and one touchdown on the day. With that, we give you our PFF exclusive takeaways from the contest for each team.

TOP 5 GRADES:
S D.J. Swearinger, 92.2 overall grade

OT Morgan Moses, 87.2 overall grade

OT Trent Williams, 86.1 overall grade

Edge Preston Smith, 83.4 overall grade

HB Chris Thompson, 81.6 overall grade

PERFORMANCES OF NOTE:
WR MAURICE HARRIS, 81.6 OVERALL GRADE

Playing his first snaps of the season, the 2016 undrafted free agent was third among the wide receivers on the team with 41 offensive snaps, catching two of the three passes thrown his way for 50 yards. That included arguably the catch of the season, with Harris reaching back with one hand to snag the ball. That catch alone should encourage the Redskins to throw the ball his way more.

HB CHRIS THOMPSON, 81.6 OVERALL GRADE
Showing his all-round ability, Thompson delivered as a receiver, with six targets over the course of the game. He picked up three receptions for 41 yards, including a long reception on fourth down against Eric Kendricks. As a runner, he saw nine carries, with one missed tackle. He rushed for just 26 yards, but 30 of those came after contact.

S D.J. SWEARINGER, 92.2 OVERALL GRADE
Even though he started slow against Minnesota, Swearinger basically single-handedly brought his team back into the game in the second half. The Washington safety read Case Keenum’s eyes to beat Kyle Rudolph to the football on a corner route in the third quarter and then undercut Rudolph on a quick out on the first play of the fourth quarter to bring the football back to the goal line. Furthermore, Swearinger had an impact in the run game as well since he made several tackles close to the line of scrimmage.

EDGE PRESTON SMITH, 83.4 OVERALL GRADE
While Washington was unable to sack Case Keenum, it was Smith who got closest to it as he racked up a total of three pressure on just 18 pass-rushing snaps. In addition, Smith was the only player who knocked down Keenum as he forced an incompletion by hitting the Minnesota quarterback’s hand during the throwing motion. Furthermore, Smith was also among the best Washington run defenders as he set the edge and dominated the Vikings’ tight ends on run plays.
