Skins vs. Cardinals predictions

[skinsfan69]

we are getting a break with warner not playing. but i don't think this is going to be an easy game at all. cards have boldin, fitz, b. johnson and e. james. i think it depends on if rattay can play a decent game. if he can't then we should win easily. but he gets the going it's going to be close.

The redskins D is great against any team that they play. They will do well against the Cardinals as long as Carlos Rogers plays well. If he doesn't play well, then the redskins will have to give him help with probably Taylor up top. That may open up some things for the cardinals offense, but probably not too much.

Going back to Rogers - he needs to start improving in his coverage and/or start working on making big plays. What I mean by big plays is - intercepting, causing fumbles, or hitting to hurt - that way, the opposing team stops throwing it his way.

Ahh, come on man. Have you not been watching this year? Overall, he's been having a GREAT year. INT returned for a TD?! Awesome.

Sure, he could have tackled lower on that TE, but 95% of his plays have been nothing but great.

Don't get me wrong because I was as excited as you were with that interception return for a touchdown, but it was just icing on the cake. If he does that when the redskins are down or in a close game, then that would be Awesome to me.

During the losses, there were too many plays that the quarterback went to his side. I don't know if I'm expecting too much, but I wouldn't rate his play as great, I think great is making big plays (when the game is still on the line). I think right now I would rate his play as average to below-average.

Arizona Cardinals pass defense ranks 17th after facing the likes of

San Fransisco - 32nd passing offense
Seattle - 8th passing offense
Baltimore - 14th passing offense
Pittsburg - 27th passing offense
St.Louis - 24th passing offense
Carolina - 26th passing offense

We are going to pick apart the corners and linebackers. If I'm the def. coordinator for the Cardinals, I'm going to force JC to beat me deep. With our WR's hurting, that may be tough to do. Look for Keenan to step up big time on the deep slants, and maybe we'll hit Lloyd on a deep bomb. Campbell will need to thread the needle this week and may throw a pick or two.

Redskins 35 ARZ - 14

JC has a passer rating around 100.0

Great post. Makes me get warm and fuzzies when I think about JC torching them. I didn't realize until today that despite our winning record (should be 5-0) that we don't have any WR's with a TD catch. That's crazy and needs to change, hopefully starting this weekend. As much as people love Moss and ARE, wide receiver play is obviously a big deficiency on this team.

Nothing gets me more excited than the thought of yelling Cooley's name for three hours. I predict another great game for him.

Well, I would hold off on calling our defense great. We are not a great defensive football team. I think we are playing good defense right now.

I can't name a defense that is playing better in the nfl right now. Maybe except the ravens.
