Getting Defensive: Week 3

Arizona (at Washington)

The Cardinals defense this year has six sacks, four forced fumbles and an interception to its credit. They also have the second-highest forced bad-decision rate, three near interceptions and have given up only 23 points. All three of their starting/nickel cornerbacks have also been covering quite well, and with the exception of Santana Moss, none of the Redskins wideouts should strike much fear into their secondary. This group has the potential for a 10-point or higher game.

Against Miami and Frisco.... be very afraid.

Week 3 Pigskin/Eliminator preview

Arizona at Washington (-3½)

"Spitting on a sea gull is not tolerated." Respect for birds is usually a good thing, but if you give these Cardinals a little space, they'll run you out of your own stadium. Kurt Warner, Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin will fly high and send the Redskins to defeat.

Prediction: Cardinals by 6

Niners were giving them a game but turnovers killed them. Gore rushed for 96 yards on 14 carries and O'Sullivan was 14 of 20 for 195 yards passing.

Niners lost because they gave the ball away 5 times (4 fumbles and a INT) however they moved the ball well on offense. Their Defense held the receivers in check somewhat, only giving up one play of over 20 yards and that was a 40 yard pass from Warner to Steve Breaston. The Cards had a short field to work with on multiple occasions.

If we play that kind of Defense and don't turn the ball over, I just don't see us losing this game.

this will be the perfect game for Devin Thomas to prove his worth.

Arizona has played no one of significance so far this year.

SF's horrific O-line has allowed 12 sacks already this year. Miami has allowed 6. That's first and tied 6th respectively.

Washington on the other hand has allowed 3 sacks and is tied 20th with 5 other teams.

Who in the world is AJ Mass?

If he was smart he would've noted that they put up these numbers against SuperBowl contenders SF and Miami.

you know what, if the Skins were 2-0 after beating teams like the phins and frisco people will still say we suck. somehow, after the cards beat 2 subpar teams everyone is crowning them this shiznit.

No kidding. Remember when the Redskins opened 2005 by beating the Bears (won division that season), Cowboys (finished 9-7), and the Seahawks (played in the Super Bowl), yet someone called them the worst 3-0 team in the history of the NFL?

I have no doubt that the Cardinals can well be a handful for any team, but it's hard to really get a read on them through their first 2 opponents.

:2cents:
