Why the Commanders can cover
Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who started his collegiate career at Arizona State before transferring to LSU, has played very well the last two weeks, including a near-flawless performance in Cincinnati in Week 3. He completed 21 of 23 passes for 254 yards and two scores, while rushing for 39 yards and a touchdown. He has now accounted for five total touchdowns on the season, two passing and three rushing.
With veteran running back Austin Ekeler out for Sunday’s matchup, Brian Robinson Jr. will handle the heavy lifting for Washington’s backfield. Though he was held somewhat in check on Monday night, Robinson has totaled 262 combined rushing-receiving yards in three games and scored twice. Arizona is allowing more than 123 yards rushing per game and there should be ample opportunity for the Commanders to move the ball on the ground. See which team to pick here.
Why the Cardinals can cover
The Commanders have given up nearly 256 yards passing per game, second most in the league behind Baltimore. Arizona should exploit Washington’s thin secondary with quarterback Kyler Murray and rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. In three games, Murray has thrown for 635 yards and five scores, while rushing for 161 on the ground. He has connected three times in the end zone with Harrison over the last two games and with tight end Trey McBride lout due to a concussion, Harrison should see plenty of targets again this week.
Veteran running back James Conner has been another bright spot for the Cardinals thus far, rushing for 189 yards and two touchdowns. In a must-win game to keep early season momentum, the Cardinals defense will have to slow the former Arizona State and LSU QB Daniels. See which team to pick here.
