Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

Im really really really worried about Sunday's game.....I think the Skins are looking past the Cards. All the talk here has been if the Skins can run the table, but Im worried about Sunday. I hope the coaching staff has them focused.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

I think we might be, especially with Dallas Week coming up. But I'm sure the players and coaches aren't and that's all that matters

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

Some fans may be guilty of looking ahead but I don't see the skins being anything less than 100% focused this weekend. They won for the first time in 4 weeks last week and I'm sure they'll do anything they can to keep that feeling going

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

I don't think they're looking past anyone. The rest of the season is basically a one game playoff each week. They can't afford to take anyone lightly and I don't see Gibbs letting them.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

A 6-6 team shouldn't be looking past anyone.

Taf, you "took the words off my keyboard". WE (Redskins' nations, that is) might be, but not the team.

If the Cards beat us Sunday, I would have to believe they played one hell of a game! I'm really not expecting to see the same mental errors that have plagued us all year.

plus from a fan's stanpoint there just isn't that much to say about arizona. Not alot of history. Once you get through...Warner's been mildly hot lately, Boldin and Fitz are really good. Denny Green is unpredictable at best, the weather is nice this time of year....think that covers it

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

I agree with the one game playoff for the rest of the season. For the most part, whoever loses all the rest of our games is possibly done for the season. (Cards aside) I will not talk about those future games cuz Im focusing in on th AZ game. And for those of you watching at home, Skins win 24-13.

Seems like our Linebacker's have been knocking on the door of some picks recently. I say Marcus gets a run back for a TD and has a sack along with his standard 10 tackles

My bad, this was meant for player of the game predictions. It's friday, my mind is elsewhere

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

I read somewhere that the Skins have a sign in the locker room "5-0 or we don't go". Between that and the veterans reminding the new players each game is big, I hope that they will be fine.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

Yea I think they showed that on comcast sportsnet. Thats what the sign said before the Rams game. Now it should read 4-0 or we won't go. Shutting down the Cards deep game is a high priority.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

i think it will not take long to see if the players are looking past arizona.this is definitly a game the skins should win.player of the game clinton portis

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

i doubt the team is looking past them, but the fans definitely are...but that doesnt matter

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

this is similar feeling before we play the raiders hope that we learn from it and focus on the game

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

I am certainly not looking past it. Personally, I worry about the games they should win than I do about the others. Hopefully, they realize that they are not good enough to overlook anyone...

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

as fans we might be, I know i have looked past them at one point this week, but as the week wore on, I've realized it's not. Every game at this point is a playoff game, we have to win them all to make the real playoffs. I believe that G.Williams and Gibbs have made sure that this team knows what the situation is.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

We have a right to speculate and ponder our match-up against Dallas. But Gibbs has stressed to each and everyone of the players that they better get the playoffs out of their heads until they finish out this season as winners. That's the right approach but I'm a fan and I'm talking a lot of shit right now to Dallas fans because they hope God forbide, we could possibly knock them out of the wildcard spot. Man I'm getting boosted up right now thinking about it.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

It's very difficult to overlook a road game. When you spend five hours in a plane, you are taken out of your regular schedule. That snaps things into focus for you.

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

I would not be surprised if the Redskins lost this game after witnessing this season. The Redskins have not yet established themselves to start guaranteeing wins.

"It's time to start thinking about next year, perhaps signing a pass rusher" (via free agency or the draft)

nobody said this was a guaranteed win....are you positive about anything?

Re: Are we looking past the Cardinals?
 

Positive is what we must be, reguardless if we dump the last 4. Gibbs and Williams will be back for year 3 and we'll be very much alive in the hunt... Oh hey Anthony Chance we will NOT lose today against the Cards and we STILL have a chance to be involved in the playoff hunt til after Christmas. Either switch teams or buck up and become a true Redskins fan. My guess is your either too young to know Joe Gibbs and his Redskins or you're bored with you Eagles this season. Enough is enough. GO SKINS!!!

Anthony Chance your location maybe "earth" but your confidence in the Redskins is far out in space. Just Chillax.
