Three keys to victory for the Washington Football Team vs. Cardinals in Week 2

Following a come from behind victory against the Eagles, the Washington Football Team travels to Arizona. Like last week, they are the underdogs, what are the keys to them pulling off the upset?

It didn’t take long for Ron Rivera to get his first win as the Washington Football Team head coach. Washington came back from 17 down to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles in a complete role reversal from Week 1 of 2019. As Week 2 approaches, Washington will look to build on its first win.

Washington doesn’t get an easy game following an inner-divisional opener. They get the 1-0 Arizona Cardinals, a team coming off a win against the defending NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers.

Arizona has its share of star talent. The pairing of 2019 No. 1 overall pick Kyler Murray and the newly acquired superstar wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins was excellent in Week 1. The new pairing took almost no time to let their presence be known, as Hopkins had a career-high 14 catches for 151 yards.

You also cannot forget about the legendary Larry Fitzgerald, who will still prove to be a challenge to cover.

On defense, they have an elite edge rusher in Chandler Jones. Geron Christian will have a tough task blocking him. And while Patrick Peterson is on the downward slope of his career, he is still a solid corner.

Arizona will provide a very difficult opponent for the Washington Football Team. They have a lot of superstar talent. Getting the win, however, is very possible. Especially with this front four (more like six). Here are the three keys for Washington as they look to earn the victory.
