Washington at Arizona

I was on both Washington and Arizona last week. I stated that Washington's a pretty good ballclub and they exposed the weak Rams. I was on Arizona, too, against a terrible San Francisco club. I mentioned last week that without pressure, Kurt Warner is a very good quarterback. Without the pressure, he can find his very good receivers and score points. That's why we backed the Cards last week against San Francisco and two weeks ago vs. St. Louis. Those were two of the worst defenses in the league, though. Throw that all out this week when Warner and the Cardinals face the Redskins. Washington has the 9th ranked defense and they are going to bring pressure against Warner. Warner doesn't do so hot in those situations (gets in his head) and I expect a number of mistakes from him this week. The Skins are better than their record indicates. Five of their six losses have been by less than a touchdown and three of them by a field goal or less. They've played a bear of a schedule having faced Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, Denver, KC, the Giants and San Diego! In contrast, against teams the caliber of Arizona (SF and STL), Washington is 2-0 with an average score of 38-13. Against good (winning) teams, Arizona is 0-7 SU and 0-7 ATS. Washington in a rout for two stars.
