Re: Cards Pregame Thread
According to Pro Football Focus, Washington’s line allowed 17 pressures on 36 dropbacks — the fourth-most pressures allowed league wide. And of those 17, the analytics website viewed Christian and Martin as responsible for nine of them (Five for Martin, four for Christian).
“They got smacked in the face early,” Rivera said. Rivera said he liked the way Martin and Christian responded, but as Washington prepares for the Arizona Cardinals this week, the left side of the line remains a cause for concern. On Sunday, the line will be tasked with stopping Cardinals pass-rusher Chandler Jones, whose 61 sacks since 2016 leads the league. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news...cause-concern/

Re: Cards Pregame Thread
Power Rankings for Week 2, we still get no respect as usual.
We're at 28. The Lions and Browns are ahead of us! Filthydelphia at 16 despite the fact we beat the crap out of them. Cowgurls who lost, looked like garbage and lost several key players at 14. I do like how they still called us the Redskins in the Eagles' blurb. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/powerrankings/

Re: Cards Pregame Thread
Win or lose i just want to see them play a full 60 minutes. We haven't had that in quite a few years. Even in our win last week, we came out slow. Adjustments were key, and it was amazingly fun to watch....but we need to hit the ground running, and play a full game. Im trying to figure out how to watch it out of market...like, legit. I have to call about getting sunday ticket in my apartment through an app...this whole covid thing is making it impossible to go to my local bar. Sucks being an out of market fan.

Re: Cards Pregame Thread
They will have to be able to sustain long drives and win time of possession. They can do that if they are able to put together a solid running game, or a combination of running and using the backs out of the backfield. I'm not convinced this team can run the ball though, not after what I saw last week. I think they averaged about 2 yards per carry last week . So it could be a long day. I do think the Eagles D is probably better overall than the Cardinals D...but there's only one week of work to compare them. We'll find out this weekend.
I think the defense is going to have to carry this team again (as they probably will all year unless the O-line play improves), and they'll have to do it against a more potent offense than last week. A defensive / special teams TD would be nice... |

Re: Cards Pregame Thread
Per John Keim and the injury report:
Full practice today for 2 potential staters on defense who missed last week: Thomas Davis and Kendall Fuller. Big news!
