Not a blowout, but a solid performance. Minus that big pass, the D was outstanding. OL is gelling. RB's and LB's were heroes today.

I can't remember when the last time was that this team covered as a road favorite!
Not a pretty win by any stretch, but we're 5&1 and the Hags and Whiners aren't!! Loving it!!!

We did win

But we made so many mistakes

Need to fine tune the team
Yep. And I don't understand why the Cards continue to not be able to put teams away that are obviously inferior.

How about a 42 to 13 victory or a 35 to 16 victory every now and then?!?!

This team wins in such boring fashion. No flash, no overwhelming play on either side of the ball. Just avoid big mistakes and big penalties. Control the ball. And win.

Love it.

Even though most all of our games come down to the very end, I never get the feeling we are going to lose. That is just the opposite of how I felt with the "old" Cardinals. Know what I mean?

I'm much calmer. I believe!

I think Nick Saban has a response for you.

Loved the win and the final drive was something we don't do too often. Sealed it with a FG.

Mistakes yes but we made the plays we had to.

GO CARDINALS!!!!!!

Very true. And so inconsistent on offense. Our D played well I thought. Gave up 1 huge play. PP is too grabby sometimes but overall they played well on D I felt. The offense is a work in progress, but they just got Palmer back, so...that's all I got.

Oline really needs to get better. No push at all when we needed it. Inconsistent all game

Philadelphia, Denver, Dallas, and Arizona

The only teams left with one loss.

Obviously there was a focus on running the ball for this game. T.O.P. edge 36:57 to 23:03. It was nice to keep the banged up defense off the field.

If comes down to the choice of running the ball or protecting the passer, I'm choosing to keep the quarterback upright.

No reason there should be a choice. Running the ball is the easiest play on the QB.
