The “Mouse” Trap Game in St. Louis

You know the old movie, “Mousehunt”, also known to some as The Mouse Trap, where exterminators spend the whole time trying to trap a mouse only to see things end in disaster for them. I liken that much to the Arizona Cardinals game in St. Louis tomorrow.  The Cardinals...

Chiming in: Pats vs. Colts

Ok, everyone else is talking about it, I might as well chime in real quick.  Last night’s decision by New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick to go for it on their own 28 yard line on 4th and 2 with 2:08 remaining.  Get the first down, the game is essentially over.  Don...

Cards Get Late Wake Up Call, Defeat Stingy Hawks 31-20

Arizona Cardinals 31, Seattle Seahawks 20. That’s what the final score says, but it hardly tells the whole story. Whatever it is, the home crowd, a feeling of too much comfort at home, it is hard to explain why the Cardinals come out with slow starts at University of Phoenix...

Cardinals Bring Road Show Home to Face Seahawks

As we all know it’s been the Arizona Cardinals Road Show so far this season. The Cards only have one home win this season. They’ve been on the wrong end of two blowouts against Indianapolis and Carolina. They had a close loss to open the season against San Francisco. They managed [...]

Cards Graded by ESPN at Season’s Midpoint

ESPN’s John Clayton gave his mid-season report on the NFC West today. The video was posted on ESPN’s NFC West Blogger Mike Sando. Clayton gives the Cardinals a “B” so far this season. I would say that is about spot on given the Cards struggles at home but success...

Cardinals Quick Hits

Arizona_cardinals_training_0916
Anquan Boldin is upset he was not told he was going to be inactive for Sunday’s game.  Get over it Quan.  I have to believe it wasn’t deliberate to see your equipment missing before you got the official word.  Coach Whiz has a million things to do before a game, you...

TV Dinner: NFL Power Rankings

Now that we are halfway through the season for some and some about to hit the halfway mark in Week 8 this weekend, I thought I would take some time to put out my current power rankings with a twist.  If each team were a current (or former if a current doesn’t fit) television show, [...]

Success is Earned, Not Asked for

When the Arizona Cardinals defeated the New York Giants last week, all we could talk about was what little acknowledgment the Cards were getting for their great game.  Rather everyone was asking what was wrong with the Giants?  Maybe that’s the way it should have been. Now...

Cards Bomb at Home, Crushed 34-21

Here I thought Halloween was yesterday.  Nope.  I was wrong.  Today was the scariest day of the year and to dress like someone or something else.  That’s exactly what the Arizona Cardinals did today.  They dressed like someone else.  It certainly couldn’t have been...
