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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

What is up with Thanksgiving Day games this year?  All 3 were horribly one-sided.  Although one would expect that with Detroit and Seattle, I was looking forward to a really exciting night game vs. Philly.
Then I remembered that it was on the east coast…where NO west coast team (including Arizona) can win this year for [...]

Cardinals 29, Giants 37
Yeah, 29…odd score….botched PAT.  However, Neil Rackers managed a very respectable 11 points and an interesting 67-yd attempt free kick (unusual…and failed.)
Dang, where to start.  Despite being home, Kurt Warner looked off.  he just didn’t have his usual pocket presence and uber-commanding zing on the ball (perhaps the Giants’ D breathing down [...]

Cardinals 29, 49ers 24
Holy cow, 20 penalties during this game….unbelievable.  This might be expected if the Broncos were playing the Raiders, but the Cards??
What a game, though, eh?!?  Most MNF games lately have been quite boring, but this was a definite nail biter!
First of all, I want to shout out a big THANKS to Kurt Warner, [...]

Cards seek to remain atop the NFC West - Week 10 Pre Game Report

The red hot (5-3) division-leading Cardinals host the troubled (2-6) 49ers Monday night, hoping to extend their lead in the division.  The last time these teams met, week 1 this season, Arizona won 23-13 on Kurt Warner’s 197-yd, 1 TD performance while Edgerrin James rushed for 100 yds.  But the Cardinals’ offense has exploded since week 1.  [...]

Week 9 Pre-Game Report, Cardinals (4-3) @ Rams (2-5)

Coming off a tough loss last week to Carolina, the Cards look to rebound vs. the newly-resurgent Rams (and Kurt Warner’s former team) at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis.
The Cardinals had a good game last week.  Edgerrin James’ fumble was, frankly, the turning point.  Therefore, one wonders if Tim Hightower will get more carries in addition to [...]

So Freaking Close

Cardinals 24, Panthers 27
Let me first say that Anquan Boldin is a maniac!! Wow, 1st game back after a serious facial injury/surgery and he caught 9 balls for 63 yds and 2 big TDs. But alas, as has been the case with the Cardinals this season, they can’t seem to close the deal on the [...]

Week 8 Pre Game Report - Cardinals (4-2) at Panthers (5-2)

October 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Coming of a much-needed bye week, the Cards travel to Carolina to meet the Panthers, with Arizona atop the NFC West and Carolina tied with Tampa Bay atop the NFC South.
First of all, I am sick about hearing how wonderful Carolina’s one-two-punch running game is with DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart.  Granted, they are great; [...]
