TEMPE, Ariz. Theres no formula for lineup changes in the NFL. Injuries, aging veterans, not-quite-ready rookies and underperformers can all play a role in game-day alterations -- and all of those factors exist with the Cardinals.
Regardless of why, Arizona Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt has made it clear that change is occurring for the most important reason of all: Losing.
What...
Cards' season transforms into salvage mission

How far will defense take the Arizona Cardinals

Emphasis on special teams pays off for Cardinals
Since 2008, the Cardinals have blocked 15 kicks, more than any other team in the NFL. They've blocked so many, in fact, that they almost expect to make a big play every game.

Arizona Cardinals: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#23)
Last week: 23 (+7)
Record: 2-0
The Cardinals are one of only 6 undefeated teams left in the NFL, but they’re by far the weakest of the bunch.

They’ve got a nice defense, but I still don’t...
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. New Orleans vs. Arizona 8/5/2012
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
By Eric Judd
The Hall of Fame Game
Arizona 10 – Saints 17
The Good
Yeah, I’m totally worth it.
Drew Brees: There is a reason, (okay quite a few reasons) he just got a big fat check. Just watch the first drive of this game. After just a handful of padded practices, you’d expect a slow, vanilla offense during the first preseason game...
Cardinals defenders show swagger in training camp
(Eds: With AP Photos.) By BOB BAUM AP Sports Writer The Arizona Cardinals' defense is well aware of its status as the anointed strength of the franchise.
