we have improved since the last time we met them.

And so have the Cardinals. I think it will be a close game all the way through and hope is that the Cardinals pull it out in the end.

Everyone knows how hard it is to beat any NFL team twice in the season. Last time the Cardinals relied on the pass heavily and really only went to the ground during red zone situations. Look for the Cards to keep your defense true which will give our recievers a little more space downfield. The Cardinals defense has stepped it up these last two game and are really finishing tackles unlike 10 weeks ago. They will also force turnovers which should make for an interesting game.

The Cardinals are also extremely motivated and coming into this game with a little bit of momentum. Especially with that 10 pt spread that Vegas has we still feel like we aren't getting any respect. They know that if they win and get some help from Philly over the G-Man they will be headed back to the desert for the NFC Championship Game. It's do or die and they will play that way.

Final Prediction: 27-26 Cards

The Cards have not improved since playing us. They had not 1, not 2, not 3, BUT 4 EMBARRASSING LOSSES To Philly, New England, Giants, & Minnesota at their own house out of all people. Must have forgot about that

I give credit to winning against Falcons. But only difference is actually trying to establish a run

I don't get how that performance doesn't qualify as improvement.

Yeah they played badly when the playoffs were locked up and nothing was really on the line (bad coaching there) but those conditions no longer apply.

Actually something was on the line. They still had a chance of getting a higher seed. You don't mail it in when there is still a chance. You only do that when there is not one.

They couldn't have risen higher than number three, and there's no practical difference between the third and fourth seeds. Both have to play in the wild card round at home. The only difference is who you match up against.

I agree you shouldn't mail it in, but I think you'd have to say they did. To me, that's on the coaches.

    • Just had Thanksgiving meal with a couple dozen family and friends. I lucked out and got one of the smoked turkey legs. Stuffing, mashed taters and gravy, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, kale, smoked ham, chicken and rice, corn, lima beans, cranberry sauce, and great people. My brother got his guitar out and we got to singing. Lots of actual conversations with people I hardly  ever get to see, haven't seen in a while, or who I never met before. Just a great moment to remember.
    • 3-8 would be a higher win percentage than 3-9
    • Same... With the personnel the Niners had, that defense could have been historically good in the right hands. Under Wilks they were certainly good, they didn't quite rise to that level. Honestly, I see Wilks kinda like I see Rivera: fantastic person, decent head coach. Skill wise, phenomenal DB coach, so-so DC. His greatest strength is his leadership. Hard to find many better in that department. In the Xs and Os / execution area though, not as good. Bottom Line: Wilks is the sort of coach that needs a staff that excels in those aspects of the game where he's weaker. But, like Rivera, I don't know that he scouts assistants very well. That as much as anything might be why he's not in the NFL now.
