Anyone feel like we are playing the 03 Rams again.

As long as this game has the same ending I don't care what team we are playing, it would be nice to see us beat them with that "X-Clown" play where Smitty caught the game winning TD pass.

Oh hell no unless it happens late in the second quarter. I want a nice cruise control win no drama.

Don't even use the 2003 Rams and the Cardinals in the same breath.

The Rams were one of the most explosive and top teams in the league.

The Cardinals are a punchline in a sad joke.

They were 8-8 in the God Awful NFC West for Christ's sake.

They beat some of the worst teams in the league.

SF twice...both times before Singletary took over and they sucked bad

Miami....most overrated team in the league. Were exposed as a joke by Baltimore

Buffalo...once they started imploding

Dallas...during the stellar Brad Johnson era

SL...Twice...2nd worse team in the league

Seattle...twice...challenging SL for 2nd worse team in the league

What a joke....any other division and you would have been 3rd place at best.

They gave us a hard time at home and beat the Falcons,they are no cakewalk!

This is the playoffs. Regular season really doesn't matter. Teams are different in the playoffs as we saw last week in Arizona.

Not really AZ has always been good at there house and ATL has sucked on the road this year. I mean we owned the Falcons when they played at our house but they did the same when we were in there house. Let ATL host the Cards and its a different story.

Arizona is a very good team at their house and very mediocre on the road. We are very good at our house and mediocre on the road. Fortunately this game is our house and that is why we will win. Our 12th man will be very important to the defense in particular. They will need all the support we can give them!!!

Yea the way you dominated the Lions 31-22, the Raiders 17-6 and the Packers 35-31 were impressive. Our strength of schedules were identical at 119-137, although we had five road games back east were we played teams with a combined record of 50-22 :reddevil:

I agree, but those 100 yards were on 14 carries or 7.1 yards per carry, and considering that edge had touched the ball 8 times since the Carolina game, I would consider it an improvement. I have been at the last two games, and just let me tell you that I haven't seen Edge run like this since he has been in Arizona. He has a big chip on his shoulder. He looks faster, he is running outside and making people miss, something he hasn't done in awhile. He is a different back, and if he gets going Saturday night, it's going to open up our passing game even more.

You guys are 9.5 favorites and we are travelling east and playing a team that has beat us the past 5 meetings. That's a huge hill to climb. Two weeks ago we had zero running game, but have been decent since Edge has let out of the dog house. If we win, it's going to be through the air, all I am saying is that your defensive game plan must now account for a much improved running game.

The Panthers went 12-4 with that schedule, the Cardinals went 9-7.

Just a few interesting facts from the Cardinals newsletter

THIS SEASON THE CARDINALS ARE:

7-2 in home games (not relevant)

6-1 in games played indoors (Not relevant)

Panthers are 8-0 at home (very relevant)

8-0 in games they are leading after the third quarter

9-0 in game they break even or hold an advantage in the turnover battle (This will be the key to the game)

Panthers are 12-0 in games they went on to win (about as relevant as those stats)

The whole east coast theme, in my humble opinion, is based on a traditional game time of 1:00 pm eastern time. The Cards bodies are out of sync. A later 8:00 pm game time would benefit the Cards.

Home field advantage is huge. Also, it has been raining all week here with rain scheduled again for Saturday night. Weather could be a huge factor in offensive play calling. A sloppy field would benefit our surging running game.

As a true panthers fan, I am worried about the Cards. However, with an undefeated home record in the playoffs and an undefeated home record in the 2008 season, my money is on the panthers. The Panthers seem to step it up on all sides of the ball in the playoffs.

Opinion at best.

Seeing as you did not provide many facts in your post why should I believe your opinion.

Why believe facts?

Romo played the game against AZ.

AZ was 6-0 in the NFC west, not 8-8. AZ finished the regular season 9-7, not 8-8. Shoulda been 8-8 (9ers shoulda won that game under Sing but coulda shoulda woulda).

My favorite fact though, is

Panthers are 12-0 in games they went on to win.

Lmao that is a FUN FACT. Poor Cardinals are 0-7 in games they went on to lose. If you look at it that way, AZ doesn't stand a chance. I mean, how can an 0-7 team compete with a 12-0 team? :)

Conversely, Panthers are 0-4 in games they went on to lose, and AZ is 10-0 in games they went on to win.

Hmmmm....

Carolina minus 10? Bet the double wide AND the F150 AND the ATV w/trailer AND the Big Screen TV!

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
