Redskins vs. Cardinals predictions

You're the ONLY one. :D :D :D

Not anymore, someone is trying to screw up my mojo.

31-Skins
20-Cardinals

Kurt Warner almost beat us with one arm last year. We need to run the ball and keep thier offense off the field if we expect to win this game...It'll be close but we win by a field goal. 24-21 Skins.

Skins 25 (safety on Warner and 3 FGs that should have been TDs leading to weird point total)
Cards 20

you heard it here first

we let the cardinals come back last year in the 4th, we were winning by like 2 or 3 tds and then gibbs got conservative and the D started giving up huge yards and then TDS's then Rackers barely missed the FG to help us win.

Its gonna be a different story this year though, the team has put a highlight on starting strong early and then we dont have to barely sneak into the playoffs, hopefully they can stick to that strategy because if we cant beat the cards we are gonna have a hard year

Redskins 35
Cards 17
One-Two punch Portis and Betts. Betts being a huge factor in this game. Skins will send the cards back to Arizona with their first LOSS. If we can't put up big numbers against Arizona, then there's just no way we can win against teams in our division.
HAIL!

HAIL, I agree with you man, we have wayyy tougher oponents that we are gonna need to beat, we better beat the cards. If we can't, we will struggle. Hopefully the team isnt overconfident and respects the cards like alot of memebers o nthis site do, then we can come out and crush them. We need to show other teams in our divsion we are pretty damn good ourselves

they beat two teams that had a combined record of what?? 6 wins and 26 losses?
Actually 1 win and 3 losses, but that 1 win being against an '07 playoff team, in their house, where they were 9-1 last year.

THe Cardinals would lose to the Saints, and they are gonna lose to us.
Romper Room must have let out early today...there is no reason to state this because you have no idea what would happen if these 2 teams met.

besides, it doesnt matter if you have the best defense in the league, if you cant score points, you arent gonna win, and thats why the seahawks got beat.
The Seahawks got beat because they let up and couldn't get the job done. Putting up 30 points at home in this league usually means a W. Two Seattle turnovers in the 2nd half led to 14 49ers points...

If offense didnt matter, the raiders would have won more games than they have the past 3 years. in fact, didnt the raiders have a top 5 or 10 defense the past 2 years? I know they had a great defense
Let's see. Raiders 2007 D: 22nd in the league total yards, 27th in league total points allowed. Raiders 2006 D: 3rd in league total yards, 18th in league total points allowed. Not exactly a great defense.

Go back and reread what I said. I never said offense didn't matter. I said the Giants D carried them into the Super Bowl and that Manning got hot at the right time.

oh lord, whatever guys.. when sunday comes, and we stomp the cards, you will know what I was talking about. Zorn isnt going to let campbell slip back down, he is going to make campbell build off that win and then they have Cooley,portis,betts,moss,randle El, and Rock on returning balls to deal with. We have to deal with their passing offense, thats it, thats all we have to worry about.. So when we shut down their passing game, what are they gonna do?
That's all fair and good, but 2 games into the season, the Skins have played solid ball for 2+ quarters. The simple fact that all they could muster in the 1st half against the Saints was 5 measly FG attempts has me concerned about punching the ball in for 6. And it took a weary Saints defense for the Skins to come alive and win.

Oh, and if the Skins to shut down the Passing game, Edge and Hightower may not be AP and LT, but they can do some damage.

2+ quarters? did you not watch the whole game? we dominated the saints THE WHOLE GAME dude.. How can you discredit the redskins win that much? the stats and replays showed we dominated 4 quarters of that game, even though the score didnt show it.

I agree the 1st half we left points on the field, but we were still dominating them. They were put into scoring position when randle el fumbled and then reggie bush got that punt return. Those points should not have been

we we're 33% in redzone effeciency and that will improve as malcolm kelly and devin thomas hopefully start getting used to the speed of the game. Kelly could especially help us in the redzone.. Our offense is still new and the players are now getting used to it so they will only play better. with that redzone effeciency , they better

I did watch the whole game, and I discredited their play in the 1st half because while they could drive the ball down the field, they couldn't get the job done. It's like taking the Prom Queen into your Pimpin' Ride, driving her up to Lovers Lane, and then taking her home without hitting the home run.

You can dominate between the 20s all you want, but if you can't punch it in for 6, that is not dominant. And because of that "dominance", the Skins went into the locker room down 1, and went into the 4th quarter down 9. You don't dominate an entire game and have to come back in the 4th quarter to win.

A dominating effort would have been TDs on the Saints 2 1st quarter turnovers, not field goals. Again, your enthusiasm is awesome, but do not discredit the other team because of your blind faith.
