NFL 2008-09 Season

After so many Monday Night blowouts (Giants/Browns, Broncos/Patriots, Colts/Titans, Steelers/Redskins), we got a hell of a game.

Cards do NOT blow it for once- that's what they usually do.
 
Arizona................6-3
San Francisco.......2-7
St. Louis..............2-7
Seattle................2-7


I would be EMBARRASSED for raising a banner because I won that pile of dung! :eek:

Hell of a game? I beg to differ..............that was a comedy of errors!

To be fair, for once, we got a Monday game that was up in the air in the final 10 minutes.

This was the first competitive Monday Night Football game since Ravens/Steelers.
 
Are you SERIOUSLY comparing this years Cardinals to last years Patriots?

No. I'm saying that there are plenty of other NFL divisions in history where other teams had bad records.

This year's NFC West is one of many. Remember the old NFC Central in the mid-80s where it was the Bears and a bunch of bad teams?

Yes, but the difference is you could put the '85 Bears or the '07 Patriots and place them in ANY division and they would have won it.

The ONLY reason that the Cardinals get in the playoffs is because of the pitiful division they play in.


BIG DIFFERENCE!!!

I know it's a pathetic division (Remember, I have NOT said Arizona will hoist the Lombardi Trophy this year), but I will give them some credit.

I'm not going to rank them high in my Power Rankings (that'll be tomorrow, BTW), but I'll give them credit for this- they won a game they usually lose.

99 times out of 100, Arizona loses this type of game. This was the one other one.
 
I do agree with Bill on many things about Arizona- they've had a bad history, lack of success, they play in a bad division.

One thing we can agree on- their recievers (Boldin, Fitzgerald, Breaston) are great.

BTW, why is it that wide recievers drafted by the Lions flame out, yet wideouts drafted by the Arizona Cardinals turn into very good players?

Neither franchise has had a great history, yet one team has good wideouts, yet the other doesn't.
 
That was a terrible play call at the end of the game. Almost anything else would have been better. A fullback dive from the 3? Are you kidding me? If they threw it the Cardinals probably would have been flagged for interference.
