Redskins at Cardinals pre game

Guys, think I should start Fat Rob for fantasy?

Guys, think I should start Fat Rob for fantasy?

I have the last few weeks. Doing it this week as well. I had AP ... juggling fat rob, matthews, crowell ...


After listening to Cooleys take this AM, im kinda worried about the Cards.

1. They run the ball. Im still not convinced our run D is fixed, just hasnt been tested/exposed as much. Looking at his carries, the Cards dont run him more than 20 times or so, so that is good.

2. Rb David Johnson is not only one of the best RB but he is also heavily used as a pass catcher out of the backfield and as Palmers dump off. He already has 55 catches and I dont trust any of our LBs to have awareness or ability to shadow him. Would love to see Cravens used creatively here.

3. DL - Cooley said they have a really good interior pass rush and up the middle is where we are weak and where Kirk seems to be flustered the most.

4. D scheme disguises - seems like Mathieu does a Palamolu where he appears to be playing in one spot pre snap then totally runs to another spot post snap. I think Cousins struggles with well disguised D schemes bc he relies so heavily on his ability to read the D pre-snap.

I wouldn't, Cards have a good defense. I know our offense is good but idk that our offense is "can easily run roughshod over a good defense good." And idk why anyone would start Fat Rob if they expected an average game out of him at best.

What worries me most about this game is that the Cards have some real playmakers (Johnson, Fitzgerald, Mathieu) and they must be furious that their season has gone so poorly, and desperate to do something about it. We have got to come out fast and keep the pressure on. If we can get out to a lead and force Palmer to throw a lot, we can win this game. But if Johnson and their D are pounding away at us all game, it could be problematic. They're well coached too.

With AZ, CAR, CHI, PHI, and NYG left, I think we really have to win at least 3 to get to the playoffs. Four or five would make it a certainty (or near certainty). It needs to start this week -- AZ is obviously a beatable team. Get after Palmer, get a lead early, and keep the foot on the gas.

This game will be no picnic, let's hope Carson Palmer is in a holiday spirit and throws some int's.

I have Rawls and
Dixon. Hightower is my flex.

What Redskins game is a picnic. We already had ours with GB.

And that one was only a picnic for the last ten minutes, before that it was a close game. I certainly wouldn't expect any more picnics this year, although if it did happen it would be great.

I agree with you. I wouldn't call this one a trap game, but the Cardinals could be super pissed off and come out and thrash us if we aren't careful.

I worry greatly with our defense because Arizona will score at least 24 points, we are going to have to match them score for score. We can do it.

Oh it's definitely a code fucking red nervous nellie scared-ass steve trap game. Even Admiral Ackbar is shitting in his boots. You guys really think it took 12 weeks for the Cards to get pissed off?
