Redskins at Cardinals pre game

We are going to knock the snot out of their statue of a quarterback and they have not seen an offense like ours.
Skins- 42
Cards- 17

One thing that's nice is to finally play a QB who is not mobile at ALL. He stands like a statue back there.

Agreed, and because they're very much a downfield passing team, it's all about the trench matchup, because Palmer will just sit and sit back there.

We can get to him, big time. I want 5+ sacks.

hope for the best. thats all i can say.

If we get as creative as we did with the Cowboys, I don't think their line can hold up. I need to find the article, but they were showing it wasn't Barry being the problem. It ended up the Cowboys just blocked it really well.

I would agree with that. Their line has dealt with so many injuries. Against Atlanta they shuffled their line around and it looked better, but the Falcons teed off in the fourth quarter during obvious passing situations and Palmer went 9-20.

Their starting RT was just signed off the Dolphins' practice squad a few weeks ago. They moved DJ Humphries from RT to LT when that acquisition was made. He has pedigree, he was a 1st rounder. But he's still playing out of position. It'd be like us moving Moses from RT to LT. We'd feel nervous until he proved he was solid.

It's a situation where we should be able to win off the edge. If we don't, then it will make Arians look like a genius for tweaking the lineup.

If we can stop the run and get to Palmer I think we will be fine. Cards have a good defense but even with Reed out we still have options.

Thats the formula for every game isnt it?:) I dont see it happening.We dont have a magic pill for the defense thats going to fix it,Johnson has been the best back in the league since he became a starter.If we can get lucky and get some leads and Johnson doesnt get many carries then thats the only way I see us stopping him.
Palmer is old but he's still capable of having a great game,especially against our defense.I wont be shocked if we win by any stretch,but I'm more inclined to go with Az at home in this one.We have to get tds in the red zone,and thats another thing we need a magic pill for,because we dont capitalize when we have those opportunities.

Reed is doubtful

Not surprised. The move picking up Vernon Davis in the offseason has looked mighty genius on the part of Scot McCloughan!

Just looked up the sack totals - Cards have given up the 3rd most with 33.

I think it will be a good litmus test for Barry and our DL. No reason to not get pressure this game .... unless Barry rushes 4 and plays a conservative soft coverage thinking our offense will score enough to win, all he has to do is limit the Cards to mid 20 pts or less. Which would kinda suck but Ill take results over looks.
