It is disgusting.

Signed, a former Bears fan from downstate Illinois that became a Cardinals fan when they moved here, since I am now an Arizonan!
When I had season tickets people would root for the Cowboys who were season ticket holders and rooted for the Cards the rest of the year. Never understood it. Guarantee there are Cards fans that will do the same for the Bears.

I have literally watched a guy at a game against the cowboys. Root for the Cards wearing a Cards jersey. As soon as we were down by a couple scores he pulled the Cards jersey off and had a Cowboys on underneath. Started rooting for them for the rest of the game.

Super pathetic and its why we always need to be competitive if not elite. Such fair weather people in AZ.

Would have been entertaining if he was a Washington and Bears fan last Sunday.

Caleb Williams running a fair amount this year. 35 for 210. 6.0 per carry. (0 TDs)

And our overmatched defense hasn't be able to stop mobile guys like Allen and Daniels from using their legs to make big plays in crucial situations.

We'll need to be better against QB runs this week if want to win. Can't let Williams convert 3rd-and-9s with 10 yard scrambles. Kyzer White, I'm looking at you!

From what I have seen he’s not as fast as either guy but who knows.

The Bears have been pretty bad offensively so I’m hoping that trend continues. We all know our D makes crappy offenses look good.

This factoid is what gives me some hope to make the playoffs (a year ahead of schedule). Chicago and Seattle had soft early schedules. The Cardinals did not.

4th place team in their division last year gets the toughest schedule out of 32 in the following year. Only us.

I've heard it said that steel sharpens steel. Let's hope it's true in this case.
Keep in mind that the 4th Place schedule only impacts a small amout of games.

6 - Divisional
8 - AFC East, NFC North
14 of 17 games

4th Place teams we played
Commanders - L
Chargers - W
Panthers - TBD
