Let's get this started

A division game that I believe we need to win to have a chance at taking top spot in the division.

Oline will be the key to the game today IMO. If they can get the running game going and protect CP we have a really good chance to win.

Can the D get any kind of pressure on CK? Will we force him to scramble or keep him in the pocket? Will we allow him to run free with no spy on him?

Who knows which Niner team shows up today? The juggernaut that destroyed Minnesota in Week 1, or the horrendous squad that got throttled at Pittsburgh last weekend? They certainly won't have any problem being up for this game, nor should the Cards. Talent and coaching should determine the winner here. Not days of rest, time zone, injuries entering the game, etc. That said, I expect a double-digit Cards victory. The Niner o-line is among the league's worst, they have no vertical passing game, and we can handle a run-first offense, proven over and over. On D, they got burned deep repeatedly last week, which is our strength. I'm really curious to see what David Johnson can do today. Arians talked about him getting about 15 touches. If he continues to play the way he has so far, he may quickly rise to be the #1 back.

Really looking forward to the game. I'll be out there in my A-Dub jersey, representing on his special day. GO CARDS!

My belief is that they will be fired up coming off that big loss. We can't afford to overlook them with CK's abilities to scramble and throw on the run.

I'm scared our lack of pass rush & speed at LB is gonna allow Kap to hit big pass plays on us while scrambling. Hope not

Go Big Red:newcards:

Strahan, Long and Bradshaw all picked the Cards as their lock to win this week. Not sure if this should make me happy or worried.

Once again I only get one game in the morning when we have the afternoon game.

What is up with this? Used to get 2 games to chose from when we weren't playing

Massie starting is troublesome, he hasn't even worked the 1st unit in 4 or 5 weeks.

Big Ben goes down that leg bent bad.

By the way Shazier not playing I remember when half this board thought he was the second coming after his amazing combine. He's spent his whole career hurt

This is CBS's weekend to broadcast a doubleheader. The Cardinals are on Fox. So in order for us to view the Cardinals in the second time slot, we don't get a second game on Fox in the early time slot.

As for why we don't get the second CBS game, I'd speculate that the television contracts call for two early game and one late game.

The bottom line is the viewer suffers by not being able to select the game they want to watch. So this sucks IMO
