The Washington Redskins are taking on the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15 of the 2017 NFL season. Realistically, this is a game they should win.

In 2017, the Redskins haven’t been favored in a whole lot of games. This week, that is going to change. The team is taking on the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15 at FedEx Field. The Cardinals enter the game at 6-7 while the Redskins sit at 5-8. The two teams have taken a similar path to reach this point of the season, as injuries have capsized their respective seasons.

On paper, the two teams matchup fairly evenly. That said, it’s clear that the Redskins will have the advantage in this contest. They have the superior quarterback. Whether or not you think Kirk Cousins is a true franchise quarterback, I think we can all agree that he is better than Blaine Gabbert.

Still, the Redskins are going to need more than just strong quarterback play to take down the Cardinals. If they want to get their sixth win of the year, they will have to do these three things. Then, they will secure a victory.
