London Kev Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Offense starts slowly, but the defense are beasts. Hence the low scoring game. Redskins - 17 Cards - 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more worried about David Johnson, Bradford isn't a world beater. With Johnson coming back from last year's injury, I'm hoping he will be a little weary of trying to show up AP, but Bradford is squirrely; one week he can look like David Carr and the next he's being called Tom Brady. Well, maybe not to THAT extent, but you get the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Tomb Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Arizona has the worst offensive line in the league. If our defensive front seven aren't absolutely mauling them, I will be stunned. Redskins - 27 Cardinals - 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fight for ole DC Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Must stop the run and make them one-dimensional. Bradford lacks mobility. Get pressure up the middle and make Bradford move. Need to take crowd out of game. Play ball control and get the running game going. 27-17...…..HTTR! HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samy316 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Redskins 20 Cardinals 17 I predict that we will look like our usually sloppy selves in this opener, but we get a late FG from Hopkins to seal the deal. The Cardinals will march down the field in the last minute, and they end up missing the 52 YD FG at the horn. The win will distract everyone from how anemic our offense will preform this game, and Alex Smith struggles to get to 200 YDS passing, not because he’s off, but because of our receivers’ lack of big play potential. An Adrian Peterson TD, and a fumble return TD by Preston Smith account for our scoring in Week 1. The defense shows why I think they’ll be the better unit this year, and forces 2 turnovers. Bradford gets sacked 4 times, including a sack from our rookie pheonom Da’Ron Payne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Tater Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 This game is being played in 100+ sunny weather so it probably goes to the team in better condition, not necessarily the better football team or the team that gets lucky. We do and jump out to a 17-0 lead due to two first half turnovers by the Cards (one in the red zone) and a bad punt while allowing the Cards less than 50 first half yards of offense. After letting the Cards back into it at 17-10 in the third quarter, we manage our only drive and go up 20-10 (big red zone fail) to finish the 3rd quarter. In the fourth quarter, the Cards manage to score a TD on a 85+ yard drive but miss a chip shot FG at the end of the game after driving almost 60 yards after the Redskins failed to convert a 3rd and short with just over 2 minutes remaining. Redskins 20, Cards 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSSkinz Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I have no idea what to expect next Sunday, not sure how any of us could. My gut tells me we lose a close game because the offense is out of sync but I'm wrong all the time. Super excited for next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 A healthy David Johnson scares the hell out of me. We get to see just how good this young DL is going to be against one of the best in the league. I like a low scoring close game. Say: 17-14 Skins on a last second field goal.

RedskinsFan28 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I’ll be there (as I have in 2005, 2014, and 2016). I don’t like facing Bradford early (he’s fairly effective before his knee decides to give out on him), and David Johnson was a pain to deal with in 2016. Interested to see how the WR/DB matchups go for each side. I’m still waiting to see my first Skins victory in-person since 10/10/10. I fear my losing streak continues. 27-17, Cardinals 26 minutes ago, Darth Tater said: This game is being played in 100+ sunny weather so it probably goes to the team in better condition, not necessarily the better football team or the team that gets lucky.

Cardinals rarely open the roof before November (although the summer weather has been relatively nice, this year). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 23-17 Skins. Alex Smith leads a game winning 4th quarter TD drive. We stuff David Johnson on a 4th and 1 late to secure the dub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Honestly, we could win 30-3 or lose 30-3 and neither result would surprise me. This team is a complete wildcard but it is encouraging that Jay seems to really like what he sees in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
