    Two great RBs,McFadden and Jones were on display

    By my system Oklahoma, Missouri, Virgina Tech and West Virgina would qualify. I am not sure about Georgia. They lost at home to South Carolina. At time I think South Carolina was ranked. If so they would make it. Those are the only schools that I thought might qualify and researched. If anybody...

    Two great RBs,McFadden and Jones were on display

    Ohio State and LSU have no business being in BCS. If you cant defend your home turf against unranked opponents late in the season then you have no right to be playing for a national championship. You only need two schools for a championship game so I think it would work. It is no more...

    Jonathon Stewart vs. Rashard Mendenhall

    I would be very surprised and disappointed if any RB is picked in the first round. The team became competitive because the defense started playing. Ranked 9th before the injuries to Wilson in particular. Quickest way to make this team a real contender is to continue to upgrade the defense. The...

    Does Warner have any trade value?

    I dont see putting all my eggs in one basket for a guy with these stats: 60/112 647 yds 53.6 pct comp 4 tds 8 picks and 5.78 yds per attempt. His percentage completion and yds per attempt were awful let alone the picks. If I were Leinart I wouldnt be worried whether or not I was named...

    Does Warner have any trade value?

    My point was to have alternatives for an unproven QB in case he fails. Just because you have alternatives doesnt gurantee that you will make the right choice. It guarantees you have a choice which is far better than to realize you bet the farm on a loser and have no choices at that point. If...

    Does Warner have any trade value?

    It comes down to this. I am not willing to sink or swim with Leinart. I dont want to put all the eggs in that one basket. An injury prone inexperienced QB who has not excelled when he has played without a viable alternative is an idea that would make me wake in anxiety from a dead sleep. Imagine...

    Does Warner have any trade value?

    In Eli Manning's case they had a viable alternative in Warner until Manning did something to prove he was the guy. With Rivers there was Brees as an alternative. I cant recall situation with Peyton Manning or Palmer but I bet there was a veteran QB waiting in the wings. Leinart has to prove...

    Bickley's latest stab at the QB situation

    I dont agree with the notion that it is only a recent trend to push young QBs into the starting job. The pressure to win has always been there and head coaches have always done what increases there chance to win. Lomax was drafted in '81 and was named the starter for final 6 games of the season...

    Does Warner have any trade value?

    What has Leinart done to prove he is a starting QB? What if he fails? If he were a 4th round pick from NW Missouri State with his current stats it would not even be debated that he was not the starter. Ok, he was a Heisman trophy winner and a first round selection. What has he done since...

    Bickley's latest stab at the QB situation

    This whole debate in my opinion is a big deal about nothing. Sports are one of the very few occupations that is a meritocracy. Almost every other occupation we hear about the good old boys club where it is who you know not what you know that gets you the opportunities. Go ahead lable Leinart as...

    Does Warner have any trade value?

    Leinart is TOTALLY UNPROVEN. His numbers are those of a back up QB. Hell no to the idea of trading Warner. Imagine this season without Warner. It would have been a disaster. Compare Warner's numbers to every other second string QB this year. Even if Leinart is the guy a team cant...

    Steelers get their timeout back

    The NFL rules making process suffers from the same thing German tank designers suffered from in WWII. The NFL committee that makes the rules does not have to enforce them so they devise what to them are perfectly logical, efffective and enforceable rules. The people who enforce the rules...

    Two great RBs,McFadden and Jones were on display

    I saw a magazine that projected him as a 2nd or 3rd round pick. I liked what I saw from him this year. However, I did not follow him since HS but we will see. I only saw a little of Arkansas against LSU and only other time I saw them was in Cotton Bowl. After seeing Cotton Bowl it really makes...

    Two great RBs,McFadden and Jones were on display

    When a guy gets 282 yards rushing it can go unstated that is the best a guy looked all year. Temple is a very good back. I saw projections of rounds 2-3 I think. However, I hope the Cards dont waste a high pick on ANY RB. We dont need one. James rushed for 1200+. We have real needs and if filled...

    For those that think Edge is the answer.

    Coaches really like players they know first hand. I would not count out a signing of Faneca.

    For those that think Edge is the answer.

    Whiz came to AZ saying he was going to run the ball. I am not a Steelers fan so am not particularly knowledgable about their teams but my impression is that the Steelers during the days when Whiz was with them did not have the flashy RB with break away speed. Jerome Bettis was a big bruiser who...

    For those that think Edge is the answer.

    You also probably recall that in the mid 80s when the Cards had a couple of competitive close to very good teams they had Jim Hanifan as head coach. Hanifan was the O-line coach for Coryell. Hanifan was O-Line coach again for the Rams when they were an excellent team. Hanifan when he was head...

    For those that think Edge is the answer.

    How many RBs have the Cardinals drafted or signed as the answer to the running game only to have them fail in AZ and go on somewhere else to have productive careers? Maybe you need an effective offensive line to have a running game. Vikings have 2 Pro Bowl offensive linemen. The games are won or...

    So after the bowl; are you sold on Jonanthan Stewart yet!11!

    So if we are going by one game stats how about Mizzou's Tony Temple 281 yards on 24 carries with 4 TDs against Arkansas? Temple is good but the Mizzou offensive line dominated Arkansas. That is why I like to draft the linemen. 3 of those Mizzou linemen are seniors.

    If we had beaten Seattle a few weeks ago

    That games was not even close. I can see playing the woulda coulda game with games that you are in but not that game. That was a thorough ass beating of the type that the Cardinals used to be infamous for week after week.

    How to handle AW's contract demand?

    I just saw some interesting stats in USA Today Sports Weekly. After Wilson got hurt defense went from 9 to 19. The Cardinal scheme which focused on Wilson and put pressure on QBs could no longer be ran after Wilson got hurt. I would take it as a slight if I had a contract that paid me...

    How to handle AW's contract demand?

    You dont think he will remember that he didnt get a new contract when it comes time to be a free agent? That slight combined with if Cardinals had not made the post season by then I would be looking for a new team if I were in his shoes.
