The Cardinals last scored three first-quarter touchdowns against the Jets on Dec. 23, 1975...

By coincedence, I think the last time the Cardinals won their division was 1975.

Another interesting stat - 49er's went 0-9 on third down!

Give it some time. The Cardinals are building this fanbase. Win and the crowd NOISE will follow suit. :thumbup:

You just can't expect 64,000 fans too all the sudden "believe" after all these lame years in Arizona. If were in contention this season and don't suck...the stadium noise will gel. Just like we're all hoping the o-line will. :)

Yeah that looks great until you remember the first downs they gained by defensive penalty.

3rd down and only after being asked to make noise by Dockett or some other player raising their arms. They didnt do it on their own.

if they didn't expect the cardinals to win then they wouldn't have bought tickets. the crowd noise needs to get louder. pace your selfs on the beer and start yelling, screaming, hooting, hollaring, and stomping your feet for 3 hours.

I felt like a lot of the new ticket holders have never really been at NFL games before. For example: Starting the wave when the CARDS have the ball? I'm sorry, but's that's just frigging stupid!

They didn't need to convert third downs. The Cardinals would just commit a stupid penalty and keep thier drives alive.
