Dockett won't hear of anything but a win

Defensive tackle Darnell Dockett wasn't interested this week in breaking down the Cardinals' woes. He was, however, ready to venture a prediction for Sunday's game against St. Louis.

"We're going to win," he said. "We're going to (expletive) win. I'm not talking trash. I never talk trash, but we're going to win."

Why is he so confident the 2-7 Cardinals are going to be victorious?



"Because we're going to win. I just know we're going to win. It's time for a damn win. We need a win in the worst way, the very worst way."

The Rams are 4-5 and favored to beat the Cardinals at home. Doesn't matter, Dockett said.

"The Rams are what, one game in front of us for second place in our division?"

Two games, he was told.

"One game, because we're going to win this one," he said. "I'm not trying to be funny, man. I'm not thinking anything negative all this week. I don't want to talk about missed tackles. I don't want to talk about defense struggling. I don't want to talk about offense struggling. All I want to talk about is the Cardinals winning this game."

Q Rating
Receiver Anquan Boldin practiced Thursday and was upgraded from questionable to probable for Sunday's game.

Boldin missed the past two games with a bruised knee. He reported no swelling from his workout with trainers Wednesday and no pain during or after practice Thursday.

Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald will start, and rookie LeRon McCoy will be the No. 3 receiver. Bryant Johnson (shoulder) won't play.

Extra points
Outside linebacker Karlos Dansby didn't practice because of a groin injury and remains questionable. If he can't play, rookie Darryl Blackstock will start. Tight end Eric Edwards (concussion) returned to practice after missing Wednesday's workout. He's listed as probable.


• Cornerback Antrel Rolle's knee rehabilitation is on schedule, and the Cardinals remain hopeful he will be able to play sometime in December, coach Dennis Green said.

Rolle suffered torn meniscus against St. Louis on Sept. 18 and underwent surgery Oct. 3. He has been rehabilitating in Miami.

[duckfallas]

I like the attitude.

 

[LVCARDFREAK]

God I have been critical of ockett since last year but if he can just pull out one game where he can blow up Jackson in the backfield a couple of times I would be a very happy man.

I like the attitude but I need to see it on the field!

 

[sunsinsider]

Agree totally lvdcard PROVE IT ON THE FIELD the cards have always had some good talkers BACK IT UP!

I wish that Dockett would be quiet. For a guy who has done nothing this year, you would think that he could keep his mouth shut. Lets hear it for a little less talk and a little more action against the run

Booooooooooo!!





err...sorry, wrong thread

 

[jstadvl]

Isn't Dockett playing hurt?

I'm not sure. But, I like Dockett and what he brings to the D. I've said before, he needs to slow down to the game.
