Are the Cards still contenders?

[bstoves24]

Is something off with Palmer? Also if they lose to the Bucs next week are they done?

 

[Fountain City Blues]

No reason not to but a loss to the Jimmy G Pats isn't very impressive at all. Going to be a magnifying glass on this team if they struggle even a little going forward.

 

[bstoves24]

They have to win next week because the schedule doesn't get any easier.

Dude. Does this Question Need to be asked.


ONE GAME. If they lose to TB than i would question if their still a contender.


NOT AFTER ONE GAME AGAINIST A PRETTY GOOD TEAM.

Arizona is overrated in my opinion. Last season they got all the breaks and won their division only to get crushed in the NFC Championship game.

New England was playing on the road with their second string QB. Arizona should have won this one.

No their season is over. I suggest that they should forfeit the remaining 15 games.

Oh I agree Arizona should have won it. But i'm not shocked that New England Won


GG my point though is the OP is attacking the Cards after 1 game against a good team.


One game

The better question is...

Have you been watching the nfl for more than a week?

 

[droider]

The NFC West is pure garbage so they'll always remain in contention to win the division. But their defense has regressed and has always been especially bad on the road, so they have no chance at winning the SB unless they get the #1 seed in the NFC (which won't happen).

Too talented of a team to dismiss them this early... They'll be back in the thick of things in no time

Of course. We got out played, out coached, etc. Call it what you want.

Bottom line...

We lost in week one to a non conference team when we should have won. This team will use it as motivation and play with a chip on their shoulder.

My Point Excatly. Stoves wants to look at one game. Not the whole picture

 

[bstoves24]

I think they're an 8 win team. Time will tell though.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

I think it was just a fluke game, kind of like the Seahawks who got lucky against the Dolphins (thanks Kenny Stills!). Even though Seattle won it was not impressive at all.

New England is always tough despite their QB situation and they pick up blitzes very well from what I've seen. Brady always seems to have forever back there. I think the Cards sometimes get a little TOO aggressive defensively with the man stuff. From what I saw Jimmy's receivers were hauling in everything.

The cards will be playoff contenders unless major injuries occur.

Seattle was 2 and 4 last year and made the playoffs.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

The way Palmer was performing last year at an MVP level, and then how he ended that season, leaves a lot of room for pause. You keep thinking the other shoe is going to drop with Palmer but it doesn't quite happen. Everyone is going to be gunning for the Cardinals now.

 

[broncosmitty]

Easily the best team in that division.

They could go 0-4 and Id still feel the same.

Unless the 9ers continue pitchin shutouts.

OP's been around two years and 1/3 of his posts are in this thread.

If the Cards lose to the Bucs next week, will he ask again?
