I was expecting so much of Calais Campbell this season.. He hasnt shown up at all.. He is exactly what this team needs.. Putting some pressure on the QB.. Dude has had some flashes.. But these flashes should have turned into consistancy by now.. Frustrating..

Go ahead with disappointment of the year.. Besides the whole team..

CC has played well and is going to be a great player for a long time. He is great in shedding blocks and has improved in the rungame compared to last season. He hasn't been as disruptive as last year in getting to the QB, but I can say the same about everyone, alot is due to bad coaching and scheme. We need a new DC, that's all.

Biggest dissapointment:

Larry Fitzgerald. He is not running good routes, i think think this is evident as never before. I don't think he has lost anything. He is a down the field reciever with few routes that he can excel in. He should play for an Air Coryell offense such as the one Chargers run right now. He is not an West Coast WR at all.

What we need now is a reciever such as Boldin that can get separation closer to the LOS with his route running and catching the tough throws in small windows and getting YAC's.

Fitz can't run those routes, he doesn't get separation, he is bad in getting YAC's.

Fitz is a great player despite those skills he lacks, when you have a QB that can place those jumpballs all the time down the field, and that is so good that he controls the game so that Fitz gets single coverage down the field because he can get the ball to other recievers. Then he is one of the best weapons in NFL. We don't have that QB, we can't use Fitz.

Fitzgeralds attitude sucks and that is even bigger dissapointment than his play this year.

Lack of key defensive plays from key defensive players, DRC, CC, DD among others.

Overall coaching on both sides of the ball
Oline and no running game
Cutting the Qb a week before the season
Subpar Lb and Qb play
Whiz and his playcalling
Wilson

There are just so many nominees for biggest disappointment of the 2010 season that I'd have to vote for the 2010 season itself. Very disappointing. At least when we were in the NFC East we could blame it on the quality of teams and the difficulty of having to travel east for every division road game. Now, we're in the division most likely to win the worst division ever award and we're the flag carrier.

Your attitude might suck to if you had DA throwing it to you all season. In as bad a season as he has faced he still may go over 1000 yards and 5 to 7 td's. I do not see him as a huge disappointment when there are so many others.

QB, QB, QB, and QB. I like Skelton, but the season was over before he touched the ball, because we sucked so bad at QB.

I have to agree with Rats and say the coaching starting with the Whiz. He doomed this team from the start with his mismanagement of the QB situation. IMO this team would have been much better with Leinart at QB.

Spending $30-$40 million less than last year's payroll.

No Warner, Dansby, Boldin, Gandy.

Too many rookies getting too much playing time.

Keeping Leinart 3 years too long, replacing him with the worst QB in the league, then putting faith in an untalented QB the size of a kicker.

All the drops. All the fumbles.

Wells / DRC regression.

Yep, we win the division with 9 wins with Matt under center. DA and the Dwarf cost us so bad this season. Division titles are darn hard to get ,as many Cards fans know, and when your Headcoach hands the season to the conference foes before the season starts it is a monumental FAIL. Our division is terrible and we are the worst in it. This is the worst season we have endured because we had to do it starting from the preseason. We rebuilt nothing and gave a sure Division title away before the season began. We would be Division champs if not for the inept choice at Qb by our Headcoach. I guess we will all smoke the hopium that is John Skelton because we have no shot at a top Qb in the Draft, not that I believe Graves or Whiz would have the sense to take one. Call it like we see it sportsfans, this is right up there with the worst Cards team we have seen.

I'd say Beanie Wells. I know he was ailing much of the year, but he hasn't shown anything this year.

I'm most disappointed in Matt Leinart not winning this team over in training camp and preseason and taking command and leading us deep into the playoffs like a first round pick should.

Or:

We win the division with 9 wins with Hall under center from the start. We win the division with 9 wins with Skelton under center. Basically we win the division with 9 wins with anyone but DA as long as we hunt down and kneecap a half dozen key players from every team on our schedule. I think it's a pipe dream to believe the Matt would do during the regular season what he was unable to do in preseason (move the ball). I think it's also a pipe dream to assume the defense would do in 9 games what it so rarely chose to do in any game this year. We'd have been better off with Matt but we'd have still sucked, IMO.

Just change your 9s to 8s. 8 wins will win this division and quite possibly 7.

eh... it's easier to list the few bright areas:

1.) Dan Williams. The kids is showing signs of great growth and development. I think we now can say that we have our anchor in the 3-4.

2.) Daryl Washington. Awesome speed. Great tackler. Playmaker.

3.) LSH. Just goes out and gets it done, time and time again...

4.) Andre Robertws. Slow start but has steadily improved. I like what I am now seeing from the kid. 2011 could be an interesting year for Andre.

5.) Jay Feeley. Yep... got put a kicker on this list, 'cuz there isn't anyone else worth being on the good list!

I think keeping Leinart gets us 6, maybe 7 wins tops. That's better than where we'll finish but we'd be complaining about the very same things. The only difference is Leinart would be one of the targets instead of the savior.

Hands down Rod Graves is the biggest disappointment. Well, maybe he shouldn't be considered for biggest disappointment because he hasn't really done anything to give us hope for anything but disappointment.

1. Doucet-The guy has always been a health risk, but now he's also a poor receiver.
2. Beanie-He looks nothing like the RB we watched last year.
3. DRC-He's played better the last couple weeks, but was surprisingly bad in the first twelve games.
4. The TE position-They can't block. They can't catch. They absolutely need to be upgraded in the offseason.
5. Sendlein-I never expected him to play well, but I'm still disappointed that he's the starter. I just don't understand what the coaches see in him.
