Most regular season wins in AZ for the Cardinals, next week will be the new high.

We really need to ride this momentum into next year. Resigning Dansby is got to be high on the list. It is critical to keep the core together and improve the OL.

Not me. I'm even more shocked we won our tenth game on that field. One of the biggest gut checks I've seen in 25 years of watching this team.

I thought we would at best be 9-7 this season, but I am very impressed by what this team has been doing over the second half of the season.

i know right?
especially after coming off a highly emotional overtime road win last week

it wouldn't have been surprising to see a team come out flat after the kind of game we played against the titans and get stampeded in seattle

but to go back out on the road again and win in the hardest place to win in the nfl?!
astounding!
this team and organization is filled with men that are changing the culture of this franchise
and we are in for a magical time

I honestly thought this was a 4 or 5 win team and wouldn't have been angry based on the QB talent in this upcoming draft class. As for missing the playoffs, as I keep saying, we're going to end up kicking ourselves over the week 1 loss.

All teams have those kind of close losses!!! Think about all of the close games the Cardinals have pulled out victorious from.

10-5 after the schedule with Seattle and SF in a 4 day period? Amazing.

It's funny, after hiring the new coaches, free agency and the draft I told my wife we will be 10-6 then after preseason I told her if we get 8-8 I'd be shocked lol

It's been an amazing season. I thought the absolute ceiling on this team was 9 wins, and they smashed through that. Really remarkable work.

It helps that the entire AFC South stunk, and the bottom fell out of the Atlanta Falcons. But you don't luck up and win 10 games.

The real challenge is transferring that work to next season--if we don't make the playoffs. Look to the Colts and Redskins if you want a lesson about how to fall short of lofty preseason expectations.

I thought I was being optimistic believing this team would win 5 games this season.

I will take a double portion of crow GLADLY for being wrong :)

Hope this season is just the beginning of sustained winning football for the Cards.

Playoffs or not, great season for this team. Kudos to Michael Bidwill, Steve Keim, and BA and his coaching staff. Stellar jobs!
