Cardinals 34, Seahawks 21
The Cardinals had an impressive showing against Seattle this afternoon; but will it be enough to beat the hot Atlanta Falcons next week in the first round of the divisional playoffs?
Kurt Warner tossed 4 TDs, 2 of them to Larry Fitzgerald, one to Jerheme Urban and one to Steve Breaston who, along [...]

The Cards host the out-of-the-playoffs Seahawks as they hope to fine-tune their floundering offense before the playoffs.  That’s about.  Really.  Go Cards.

Cardinals 7, Patriots 47
Good thing the Cardinals already won their division - at this rate they will be 8-8 and not looking too great for the playoffs.
I’m not going to rehash this ugly mess; however, wtg Larry Fitzgerald for another 100-yd game and another TD (courtesy of Matt Leinart, who also lost 2 fumbles and [...]

On Sunday, the Cardinals travel to New England to meet the (9-5) Patriots who are struggling for a playoff spot in the very tight AFC East.  Currently, the Pats, the Jets, and the Dolphins are all tied atop the division. While Arizona has already clinched the NFC West, they are looking to improve their seeding, but [...]

That was ugly. Week 15 Post Game Report

Cardinals 14, Vikings, 35
I’m sure getting behind 21-0 in the first quarter sealed the fate for the Cardinals today.  Against a decent Minnesota rush defense, they were even more dependant upon throwing the ball, which was subpar.  Unfortunately, Kurt Warner was banged up and very off today, and Larry Fitzgerald was nowhere to be found [...]

Week 15 Pre Game Report - Vikings (8-5) at Cardinals (8-5)

The Cardinals, fresh off their division-clinching victory against the Rams last week host the playoff-hopeful Vikings on Sunday.
Minnesota has historically had a decent run defense, which shouldn’t be a problem for the Cardinals’ offense and the “Warner Machine” (name courtesy of nfl.com).  The offense has put up 28.6 points per game this season, and Kurt Warner [...]

Cardinals 34, Rams 10
Wow, that word hasn’t been uttered since 1975 - the last time the Cardinals clinched their division.  In fact, they haven’t even been to the playoffs since 1998.  But after today’s explosive performance - on both sides of the ball - the Arizona Cardinals are officially the NFC West Division CHAMPS!  Congrats [...]

How bad do they want it?

The Cardinals have been able to “officially” clinch the NFC West for 2 weeks now; however, it does not seem that they really want to do that yet.  It’s easy….WIN a game. Relying upon San Francisco losing is a pathetic way to win a division title, especially since the 49ers aren’t laying down and playing [...]
