I happened to be listening to the Afternoon Blitz on NFL Radio with Solomon Wilcots and Adam Schein today and they got talking about the NFC West.
They both asked each other who they picked to win the division and they both said the Cards. Wilcots said that he hadn't bought into the Cardinals hype in the past several years but thinks that it is warrented this year. He has Matt Leinart as his breakout player in the NFC this year.
He has previously stated that he thinks the NFL is a league of coaches and quarterbacks and the Cardinals finally have both. He said that he thinks Matt is one of the smartest quarterbacks to come into the NFL in a while.
He also said that he has had several conversations with coach Whiz and has been thouroughly impressed. He really likes what Whiz is trying to do on offense and explained why Levi Brown was at RT.
In his opinion Brown is the best blocking tackle to come out in a while and most teams like to run right so they have paired him with Deauce Lutiu to form a young dynamic blocking duo for a play action offense. He liked the Terrelle Smith signing and feels that Wells was moved to left guard because of his ability to pull.
He thinks that Grimm's ability to simplify the blocking schemes will help and he forsees running a lot behind Levi and Deauce with Wells pulling to the right side and Terrelle leading Edge into the hole. He thinks they are going to pound the ball at opponents on that right side.
He said that he had asked Whiz about how he hoped to overcome the losing mentality and Whiz told him that is why it is so important to be physical and to run the ball. He said he believed that you can have great skill position players but until the team can consistantly win the battle at the line of scrimmage they will always have that doubt in the back of their mind. When you can physically win those battles you start to breach that gap to thinking that you are dominating your opponent and can really win.
They think the offensive line is better because of addition by subtraction. Translated, they neither one think very much of Leonard Davis. They have stated before that they think he is lazy and unfocused and overpayed.
Again they really like Whiz and his coaches and they think Leinart is going to be a star. They believe for the first time that the Cards have very good coaches and a potenially great quarterback.
