          First, to answer directly: #2 is correct.



          The choice of preposition there depends on the verb, I think. Sentences meaning something similar could include:




          • We label those as degenerate

          • We think of those as degenerate

          • We consider those degenerate


          I'm sure there are more options that use other prepositions while still meaning essentially the same thing.
