Cardinals 48, Rams 19
Holy Sweet Arm of an Old Guy Batman!!  Way to go Kurt Warner (23/39, 300 yds, 3 TDs, 2 INTs) leading the Cardinals to a .500 season, not bad for new coach Ken Whisenhunt.  Pro Bowler Larry Fitzgerald snagged 2 TDs, Anquan Boldin grabbed one, and Edgerrin James (who has been severely [...]

Week 17 Pre-Game Rams (3-12) @ Cardinals (7-8) or “Can Ken Go 8-8 His First Year?”

Injuries have plagued both teams, creating a less-than-expected outing for each; however, the Cardinals can still save the season (relatively speaking) and finish at .500 with a win against the Rams at home.
St. Louis leads the series 30-25-2, but the Cards have won 3 of the last 4 meetings including week 5 with a Kurt [...]

Cardinals 30, Falcons 27
For a struggling Neil Rackers, a last-second 29-yd FG to tie the game and a game-winning 31-yd one in OT was, indeed, an early Christmas present.
In addition to Rackers, both Kurt Warner and Anquan Boldin had awesome days….Warner with 361 yds, 3 TD tosses and no INTs; while Boldin had 162 yds and 2 TDs.
It was [...]

Week 15 Pre Game - Falcons (3-11) @ Cardinals (6-8)

With both teams coming off losses last week, Atlanta to the Bucs and Arizona to the Saints (all but nullifying the Cards’ hope for postseason play, which was ultimately ended by Minnesota on Monday night), what, you might ask, is worth playing for?
First of all, Arizona has a shot at ending their season 8-8, which [...]

I had been waiting for the perfect time to post this, and with Fitz’s Pro Bowl selection, I see now is the right time!
Some interesting factoids about superstar and Pro Bowler Larry Fitzgerald.
1.  Was born in Minneapolis, MN 8/31/83 (a Virgo, like me!)  He is only 6′3″ despite appearing much taller, especially in person.
2.  Was a ball boy [...]

Um, please ignore my last post.
BUT, the Cardinals can end the season 8-8, which would be great for Ken Whisenhunt.
I’m going to the game too, so I’ll be chock full of fun and games for the next few week’s blogs.

Cards Not Completely Out of Playoff Picture

December 17, 2007 | 1 Comment

With the Bears beating the Vikings at halftime (as I am writing this), the Cardinals’ hopes for postseason play are still there, albeit slightly.  If Chicago can hold on, Minnesota won’t clinch the final NFC wildcard spot just yet.  Arizona would still need a LOT of help, but the possibility is there; especially with their final two [...]

Cardinals 24, Saints 31
This game boiled down to which team committed fewer errors.  Sacks, fumbles, interceptions amounted to 2 turnovers apiece; however, Drew Brees had the better outing, keeping the Saints’ playoff hopes alive and all but eliminating the Cardinals.
Warner’s 3 TD passes went to Troy Bienemann, Larry Fitzgerald and Ben Patrick; however it just wasn’t [...]

Playoff Hopes are Still Alive

Should the Cardinals win out, they will finish the season 9-7, earning their first winning season since 1998. 
So, essentially, Sunday’s game in New Orleans is a playoff game.  A must win to stay alive.  Unfortunately, New Orleans has the same mentality, and the home field advantage.  But if Arizona wins, they close out the season with [...]
