R I S E ___ U P ___ D A R K ___ S I D E (2024)

I only got to experience one year of it, my freshman year at ASU, but yeah, it was fun in its own way.

I can't say I prefer it to the early days in our current stadium, but everything I see on TV (I haven't been in 5 years-ish) makes it look horrible and full of other fans. Just like any Raiders game here in Vegas.

When the cards are competitive that stadium rocks.

Maybe Foxboro is the only nfl stadium where fans are bored by excellence. Maybe Arrowhead now?

Stadium didn’t feel that fun in the back halves of those Kliff seasons as the wheels came off in slow motion.

Great win today but I’m not being coaxed out of the darkside. They tend to set you up just to let you down.

This thread should be locked every time they win

Well, you've the guns to do it.

They are playing the odds.

I think that’s a pretty funny rule for the board. I’m game.

 

[CardNots]

Yeah, we should open it after a loss.

This win was better than beating the cowPies last year. Totally unexpected.

Probably would have lost if the 49ers kicker didn't get hurt mid game..

What about Prater being out? We had one blocked for a TD.

McCaffery was out too, he kills us
I loved the game, if we become consistent and fix our bipolar team then I'd consider giving up my room in here , until then I have more pictures to put up lol

CMC kills everyone.

I'm on vacation this week. May stay longer depends on next week...

 

[Mainstreet]

I can relate to both sides. Being a Cardinals fan is like being on a rollercoaster.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

What about Prater being out? We had one blocked for a TD.

Well we can't know for sure that it doesn't get blocked even with Prater. They had to go for it on 4th and 23 instead of just kicking a 48 yard field goal. They also had to be uber aggressive at the end because they needed a TD or a really short FG attempt to rely on the replacement. If their kicker is healthy they likely just dink and dunk the ball down the field to get into FG range and are less likely to turn the ball over.

Not having Prater still costs us a 10 point turnaround (most likely). Nothing is for sure. He was kicking it very low, unlike Prater. Got to take the good with the bad. We had to rely on a guy hitting the winning field goal who was on the couch last week. SF made their own decisions.

well at least the guy didn’t choke left or right. Pretty accurate for an off the couch guy.

Pretty cold blooded to come in off the street and make a clutch kick like that.

C'mon, Rallis. You could've won that game if you only called more 4-man rush plays, because they were working so well

C'mon, Rallis. You could've won that game if you only called more 4-man rush plays, because they were working so well

Problem with that is that they would’ve screened us more than they already did. Those 6-8 yard gains would have turned into 20+ yard gains.

The 4-man rush was useless and I would rather die by the sword and try. We at least had a chance of getting to the QB in time with blitzes. Rushing 4 was just guaranteeing a pounding.

I can’t be mad at Rallis when he has zero to work with. Just CrossFit trainers all the way down.

Sure but then people will get mad as to why we’re not planning for the 20 yard screens they’re gaining on us.

Like K9 said, Rallis literally has nothing to work with. Nothing.

 

[CardNots]

As I’ve said before, this defense is a reactionary defense.

They don’t seem as though they can see/think what’s coming at them. They will always be a step slow.

Is this a coaching or mental acuity thing, I don’t know?

I really miss Dansby type players on the defensive side of the ball.
