5 Bold Predictions For Redskins vs. Cardinals

The Washington Redskins will try to turn their season around against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday, but it is probably not going to turn out well for D.C.'s most popular franchise. The Cards are dealing with a host of injury issues, however, their defense has been surprisingly efficient this season. Here are my five bold predictions for the game this weekend.

5. The Cardinals Will Give Up 300 Passing Yards

The Cards are giving up 302.5 passing yards per game, and the Redskins should be able to exceed that threshold. Kirk Cousins has looked effective at times this season and could help D.C. to keep this game close until the wire.

4. DeSean Jackson Will Score Again

DeSean Jackson had another brilliant performance last week at FedEx Field and should find his way to the end zone yet again. Jackson has been one of the lone bright spots for the Redskins this season.

3. Logan Thomas Will Play

Rookie QB Logan Thomas will either start the game or will be brought in for an injured Carson Palmer later on. Palmer is dealing with a dead nerve at the moment, and it would be quite surprising to see him play all four quarters.

2. Arizona Will Break Their Streak

The Cards have not won in this series since the year 2000, and they should finally get a win and vault themselves closer to a playoff bid. It just remains to be seen which quarterback will lead the charge.

D.C.'s season has been sliding off the rails for three weeks straight. They have not even managed a single win within their division, and their playoff hopes will be almost completely gone after this game. Robert Griffin III should probably shut it down for the year if they end up losing this one.
