Cards Business-like Pounding of Rams Produces Several Milestones Admit it, Cardinals fan, that as the seconds ticked off at the end of the first quarter, you were a little anxious. This wasn’t what you expected (or I predicted). The cardinals and the Rams were having an old fashioned defensive struggle. It ...Published on: 26th December, 2009
Last week’s game in Detroit proved several long time NFL adages. One being, ‘On any given Sunday'. The Loins showed in the 3rd quarter that even the weakest dog (cat?) can jump up and bite you. Yes, the Big Red came home with a ‘W’, but they did so sweating ...Published on: 18th December, 2009
For years, even decades, be they in Chicago, St. Louis, or Arizona, Cardinals fans have had to suffer through some extremely lousy football. This is no newsflash, I know. But bear with me here. Over the years, there had been a veritable plethora of 'reasons ...Published on: 15th December, 2009
Oh boy, it looks like someone's staying after school. Or spending a few days in detention. Or maybe even getting shipped off to some far-away military school! It seems our gridiron heroes tricked us, and lead us to believe they had it together, and after the stomping of ...Published on: 14th December, 2009
Scott Z: Ok Chris, we just came off one of the Big Red's most important quality wins in...well, forever, when the Cards dismantled the Vikings Sunday night in Glendale. What surprised you the most in that game? Chris: It was way too easy. Sure, the Vikings ...Published on: 5th December, 2009
The statistics are startling. When you combine the quarterback stats of Brett Favre, a certain Hall of Famer who could have retired over two years ago (before the sea-saw unretire/retire charade), and Kurt Warner, a certain Hall of Famer who became one in the last 2 years, it nearly boggles ...Published on: 29th November, 2009
Cardinals' quarterback Kurt Warner, who has been nothing short of spectacular ever since that five interception outing against Carolina a month ago, has been ruled out for today’s game against the Titans in Tennessee. Warner, it seems, woke up with blurred vision this morning, and was made inactive by head ...Published on: 16th November, 2009
The Cardinals cruised over another hurdle Sunday afternoon in Glendale, and in doing so, took another baby step toward true credibility. The "lose at home after a big road win" semi-trend they started to develop was wiped out by a resilient, confident comeback home win over a feisty Seattle Seahawks team. The ...Published on: 14th November, 2009
When you’ve produced decades of sub-par play before the faithful, it’ll take a while to build true credibility. That’s even more true in the most fair-weather city in America, where people the world over visit, vacation, or move here, seemingly just to espouse their fair-weatherness. Loyalty is another matter, as witnessed ...Published on: 31st October, 2009
The Cardinals have had two straight ‘statement’ games, and came through with increasing volume with each. Their slapping around of former perennial division champ Seattle said in no uncertain terms, that the Cardinals WILL defend their division title. They did so in a 27-3 shellacking up in the great ...
