Falconsfan567 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Who's watching the Cardinals vs. Rams? The Cardinals pass defense is absolutely pathetic. Gave up over 400 yards passing to Ryan Tannehill last week and let Sam Bradford throw a bomb and the Rams get a touchdown on their opening drive. How in the heck they beat the Patriots and are 4-0 I'll never understand. Watching them play the Dolphins last week I was not impressed.

I picked the Cardinals to win just because they were 4-0. But they are a really weak 4-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayoh Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I find it funny that Arizona struggles against the Dolphins and people write them off like they aren't legit, but we struggle against Carolina and it was "meh, divisional game, we won and that's all that matters"...Arizona won. That's all that matters. Close games bring out the character in a team, which is why I'm not one of these people touting Philadelphia as some fluke. They know how to win close games. I'ts like Bill Parcells says...you win close games because you're prepared to. It isn't an accident. Philly's defense is arguably the best in the league and their offense, while inconsistent, knows how to pull through in the clutch. A lot of people are touting Baltimore as the best 3-1 team in the league...guess who that 1 loss was to? Philadelphia. I'd be horrified of them if they had a real QB and not the circus that they currently have (ahem, Nick Foles, ahem), but they're scary either way, and Arizona neutered them. No, that isn't a typo, I didn't mean neutralize, I mean neutered, as in, chopped their nuts off.Arizona could lose tonight, but it wouldn't be due to them being a bad team, it'd be a combination of it being a divisional game and the fact that the Rams are a different team at home compared to away. They're almost like Seattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've given up 14 sacks through 4 games with is ranked 2nd worst in the NFL. They have a terrible offense and play a bent but don't break defense.And like I said before they gave up over 400 yards passing to Ryan Tannehill last week and over 200 yards receiving to Brian Hartline.

He puts up a lot of yards, and even a lot of TDs, but if you ain't winning games, it's all worthless. Arizona won against Miami, and they're successful on offense when they need to be. You can't be a bad offense when you have weapons like Larry Fitzgerald who your QB could literally just throw the ball up and 7 times out of 10 your guy would come down with it.I'm a Falcons fan through and through, but I know a good team when I see one, and I know a fluke team when I see one. Arizona might lose tonight, but they are no fluke. They're 11-5 at WORST this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're almost like Seattle.The Texans dismantled the Dolphins in the season opener.The Eagles have set a record for 5th worst point differential for a team that's 3-1 after 4 games at negative 17 points. That means they've been fluky. Another thing that means they've been fluky is becoming the first team in the NFL history to start a season 2-0 while committing 4 plus turnovers in each game. You're not suppose to win those games. If you can't see that as pure luck I can't help you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have Larry Fitzgerald and still be a bad offense if you've got Kevin Kolb as your QB. Not saying the Cardinals won't win the NFC West or won't win 10 or 11 games. But they're not better than the Falcons, 49ers, Vikings and Bears. They're not a Super Bowl contender as ESPN talked about tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl927 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Kolb's not built to grind it out. Force him into a bunch of short passes in traffic and he'll start throwing picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
