Washington at Cardinals gameday thread 9-20-20

[BullheadCardFan]

First home game of the season.

Need to come out focused and stay sharp all game.

No slow start.

Have to be careful of their D line. Could wreck havoc on the offense.

Need to get the run game going early.

Go Cardinals!

Kyler Murray hopes to stay hot for the Cardinals vs. Washington

To lead Arizona to a 2-0 start, the explosive young QB must find a way to avoid Washington's fearsome defensive front.

Cardinals promote Jordan Thomas

The Cardinals announced Saturday that they have elevated tight end Jordan Thomas to the active roster from the practice squad.

Thomas signed with the Cardinals’ practice squad on Sept. 8 after spending training camp with the Texans.

He played 21 games with 12 starts the past two seasons with Houston and had 21 receptions for 223 yards and four touchdowns.

Thomas, 24, originally entered with league with the Texans as a sixth-round selection in 2018 out of Mississippi State. He appeared in all 16 games with 10 starts as a rookie.

He played five games last season after beginning the year on injured reserve. Thomas also played in three postseason games with the Texans and had one catch for 7 yards.

Washington Football Team at Cardinals

Washington will not have LB Cole Holcomb (knee) this week. LB Thomas Davis (calf) and CB Kendall Fuller (knee) are considered questionable.

C Mason Cole (hamstring) and TE Maxx Williams (ankle) are out for the Cardinals. LB Kylie Fitts (wrist) and T Josh Jones (ankle) are questionable for the matchup of 1-0 teams.

We can't start slow today, or the D-line will pin their ears and attack. Let's go Cards, 2-0!!!

Got to avoid:

Penalties, penalties, penalties!!!

I'll be the one to say it, Washington is getting their ass kicked. They don't have the offense to keep up with this team.

If cards get lead don't chock like philly did... but murray is better than wentz at holding leads imo

Watch out for Washington wrs they are decent need big gms from peterson dre.

Also hope oline holds up against their scary dline

Go cards huge opportunity here

KK will need to have a good game plan to minimize that great Dline. Will PP and Murphy play well?

LFG! also woke up today thinking we win big.

huge opportunity for a statement game. Let’s drop 40+ on this somewhat talented defense

A loss today would erase all the glitter off of last week.

How do we neutralize their front. I see Drake breaking off a couple of big runs. You’d have to think the WFT is going to do everything in their power to take Hopkins away.

Kyler is going to have to lean on someone else today. I think Kirk and Drake have big day's

edit: one more thing. If we take any deep shots do it on first down and not when we are at 3 rd and 10.

Chopper posted snap counts and of the 62 Def snaps Dre played 20 snaps and Murphy played 60. I expect Dre to get more snaps as the season unfolds but it's pretty clear that Murphy is the other starting CB.

This guy is not just a body. He’s big & fast. He’s a decent short range & red zone option. He’s not great but improving as a blockers. He’s been injured quite a bit or he likely would have beat out Fells. Low risk, reasonable ceiling guy.
