That's a bit of a wild prediction this early. Looking at our schedule, if we can split our NFC East games, we can go 10-6. All our out of division games look winnable.

Well, I definitely feel if we beat them, we are top 5 team, however, it's a long season. It's not who starts well, it's who ends well. We'll have to stay healthy for this to come true. It's a long season.

This is a hell of a start. We may not win em' all, but we will get better and better. We should be really playing well down the stretch. The sky's the limit fellas!

If we can steal a win in the next two weeks, we'll be 3-2. There's a good chance we could be (if everything goes fine) 7-2 by our bye week.

Re: Redskins vs. Cardinals game thread

Our D has to really come together for us to be thinking taking both Philly and Dallas at this point. We are an Ok team right now defensively at best. We made Edgerrin James look like a Pro bowler and if Warner doesn't throw the pick to Carlos, who knows who would have won. Our running game also is average and needs to improve if we are going to even think about beating those guys as things stand now. The positives about today is that JC is improving and the play calling was better than last week also. Lots of good stuff came out of todays game, but much room for improvement, especially if we are going to contend for the division. Bottom line is we did beat a quality team and that is something to build on. Still wish we can work the rook wideouts in somehow when they are ready, then we can have some nice fireworks going!!!!!

Re: Redskins vs. Cardinals game thread

I think the biggest positive that we can take out of the first 3 weeks is that Jim Zorn is without a doubt a NFL caliber Head Coach.

The 2nd biggest is that JC is making the jump from average to above average qb.

Re: Redskins vs. Cardinals game thread

Just got back from the game.

Our offense looked good for several drives and JC did too, but other times it wasn't so great. D definitely stepped up towards the end but run D looked bad. Brooks looked a hell of a lot better.

Finally, the FedEX wasn't full! I don't get it, we need as much help as we can get, I hope we keep on winning so people show up to the games. A good amount of Cards fans too, which was kinda upsetting.

Re: Redskins vs. Cardinals game thread

that's why I said "IF" fellas.. IF we can beat dallas and philly in their house ( assuming we can beat them at OUR house, because we have been playing good at home.) Then yeah, at minimum we will go deep into the playoffs, but im looking for the superbowl at that point..

PS. LaRon Landrys brother is hurt real bad, everyone pary for LaRon brother Dawan Landry.. everyone pray!

Re: Redskins vs. Cardinals game thread

I didn't think our offense was anything special today. It was average. The defesne bends but doesn't break. I thought Devin Thomas made some strides today.

What?? are you kidding me? we are just now getting gelled with this offense and its showing by the points we are putting up. You have to be a bit slow to say that what is happening with us isnt anything special. We havent had an offense like this in a while and it's a perfect combo with our running game. Thank god everyone is healthy , finally. We are going to be veryyyy hard to beat if we keep playing like we have been. CAmpbell will only be even better next year and the year after that because he will actually be comfy in this system and hopefully he wont have to change anymore anytime soon. The redskins have great offensive weapon sand im glad we are finally getting to use them
Imagine if we had Malcolm kelly out there in the redzone?? Jim Zorn will get better too, but I think we are in VERY good shape everyone, and im not the type of person who says this every year, but I see something special in this team.

You're wrong. Our running game hasn't been great yet all year. I like the rushing TDs, but yards have been pretty hard to come by. And today we played a team that finished DEAD LAST in total D last season.

We're going to "very hard to beat?" We're actually pretty lucky we're not 1-2 or even 0-3. Two very narrow home wins and a ugly road division loss. Our offense had 105 yards at halftime today outside of the 1st drive we didn't have a 1st down the rest of the half. And this is playing at home with no crowd noise in our ears. I liked some of the execution in the second half, and I'm happy with the way we're progressing, but if you think for one minute we can walk into Philly or Dallas the next few weeks and win playing this way... well, then you my friend are the on who is a little slow.
