Re: Washington vs Card Pre Game
Yes we should we win this one. Yes they shouldn't be able to score a lot on us.
I wouldn't sleep on their defense though. They are fast, bring pressure, and tackle well. In pre-season it took 3 drives for Mahomes and KC's 1st to be able to move the ball on them. Good test for our offense !

Re: Washington vs Card Pre Game
I really hope nobody is taking the Cards for granted - yes from the outside looking in it looks like they're tanking but we should already know nothing comes easy for this team. I expect a dogfight.
Also r.e. Ron's comments about not knowing what a good player Howell was last year, and Pat McAfee saying Ron has basically lost his fastball - I'm getting real 2007 Joe Gibbs vibes here. Ron has been through a lot the last few years and he did get this organization back to a respectable standpoint. I wouldn't be surprised if we have another 7-10 win year and a quick playoff exit (if we even make it there) and he retires after this year.

I still think a lot of the QB indecision at the season stemmed from Snyder's meddling (maybe when he knew he was selling, he stopped meddling).

Re: Washington vs Card Pre Game
Arizona's defense wasn't good last year. I'm not sure they'll be much better this year. That said, our offense hasn't proven anything yet either. I think I'm expecting a fairly even matchup.
Maybe we have (should have) the edge with our D against their O. On paper the D looks pretty good, but they got gashed a lot in the preseason, and then stepped up when it counted numerous times too. The offense looked pretty good for the most part with Sam at the helm, but how much of that was vanilla Ds and going against 2s and 3s? We'll see. Probably should win by 7-10 points, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's closer or we lose. I'm just not exactly sure what to expect yet. |

Re: Washington vs Card Pre Game
I hope you're right, and I'm not saying they're elite or anything, but IMO don't be surprised if their front 7 proves to be a tougher than expected test for our question mark Oline.

We now have a QB that can push the ball down field ... but a poorer O line than last year. At least Eric B is familiar w Wylie's weaknesses and Leno is serviceable on his own most times.

Any team in the NFL is a tough test for our o line. We got at least one more year. Need to replace our brain trust. Need to rebuild the oline, lb’s. |

Re: Washington vs Card Pre Game
Ben Standig -
Commanders DE Chase Young is progressing from the "stinger" injury suffered in the preseason opener. However, he is still not cleared for contact, is expected to meet with another doctor this week, and is uncertain for Week 1, sources tell @TheAthletic. |
