The Arizona Cardinals didn’t get good play out of the QBs in 2011

The Cardinals thought they solved all of their problems at QB after dealing for Kevin Kolb after the lockout was lifted.  But, he proved to be brittle and somewhat ineffective when he did play as the Cardinals were only 3-6 in games he started at QB.  Kolb played in 9 games (all starts) for the Cardinals last year and he completed 146 of 253 passes (57.7%) for 1,955 yards with...

Cincinnati Bengals 23, Arizona Cardinals 16

The Arizona Cardinals played pretty solid football, but they just weren’t good enough to beat the Bengals in Cincy last Saturday.  John Skelton took too many chances as he completed 23 of 44 passes for 297 yards with 2 TD passes and 3 INTs.  Beanie Wells led the way for the Cardinals on the ground in this game with 53 yards rushing on 14 carries (3.8 ypc).  WR Larry Fitzgerald...

Arizona Cardinals 20, Cleveland Browns 17 in O.T.

The Cleveland Browns made the mistake of punting the ball to Patrick Peterson in O.T.  He returned the ball 32 yards to set up the offense with good starting field position.  John Skelton then hit a wide open Larry Fitzgerald to set up Jay Feely for a game winning 22-yard field goal.  John Skelton was effective yesterday as he completed 28 of 46 passes for 313 yards with 1 TD...

Kevin Kolb appears ready to go for the Arizona Cardinals this weekend

27-year old QB Kevin Kolb has passed all of his concussion tests and he has returned to practice.  He should be good to go this weekend against the Browns.  Kolb has played in 9 games so far this year and he has completed 146 of 253 passes (57.7%) for 1,955 yards with 9 TD passes and 8 INTs (81.1 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 17 times for 65 yards (3.8 ypc) so far...

Arizona Cardinals (5-7) vs. San Francisco 49ers (10-2)

The Cardinals lost 23-7 in San Francisco just three weeks ago, but, they have won four of their last five games.  The Cardinals will be starting Kevin Kolb at QB instead of John Skelton this time around against the Niners, so I expect a much different football game.  The 49ers dumped the hapless Rams in San Francisco last weekend, 26-0.  Here is a look at the matchups in this...

WR Andre Roberts is picking it up lately for the Arizona Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals have to be happy to have Kevin Kolb back

27-year old QB Kevin Kolb was all banged up, which cost him to miss P.T.  After watching John Skelton play at QB for the last few weeks, the coaching staff had to be jumping for joy to have Kolb back.  He completed 16 of 25 passes (64%) for 247 yards with 1 TD pass and 0 INTs (109.9 QB Rating) in the Cardinals’ 19-13 win in O.T. against the Cowboys yesterday.  Kolb has now...

LaRod Stephens-Howling is playing well for the Arizona Cardinals

The Cardinals monitor 24-year old RB LaRod Stephens-Howling’s playing time due to the fact that he only stands 5’7″, 185 pounds.  He has played in 10 games for the Cardinals so far this year and he has carried the ball 17 times for 65 yards (3.8 ypc).  Stephens-Howling has also caught 8 passes for 192 yards (24.0 avg) with 2 TD grabs and he has returned 32 kickoffs...

The Arizona Cardinals need one of their QBs to step up!
