How many of us saw this kind of start coming?

[SissyBoyFloyd]

Answer honestly now via the POLL!

 

[LVG]

What poll?

 

[Jersey Girl]

I had New England as a loss. Was hoping we would be 2-1.

More important than the win-loss total is how freaking awesome our defense is playing. I knew they would be good, but, DAAAAAAMMMMMNNNN.

 

[A fan who cares]

Back in the preseason, if you asked me what I would think if we started 2-1, I'd say I would be happy. I knew this defense was good, but I'm still stunned at how we beat the Pats last week.

 

[Fitz Rulz]

2-1

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

2-1, just wanted to beat up on some teams before the SF game when the schedule looks tough. So far so good

 

[AZ Native]

3-0 No brainer : > )

 

[Gaddabout]

I wish I could hear what Cris Cryingsworth, Dan Dierdork, and all the haters have to say today about the Cardinals. I'm no big fan and clearly follow from a distance, but I'm elated for all of you die-hards who've put up with the schmuck talking heads who always talk from reputation and never on any real understanding of the team.

Part of being a Cardinal fan IS putting up with the talking heads. This makes winning that much sweeter when we prove them wrong

Collingsworth said we were legit. And then his head exploded.

 

[MadCardDisease]

With our oline issues I thought our offense would struggle and our D would wear down fast. Massie has played pretty good for a rookie.

Actually you could see him throw up a little as he said it. He hated saying it.

 

[FArting]

2-1

 

[WarnerHOF]

I'm one of the guilty parties who took preseason a little too seriously and thought the team would go 5-11. Never again.

Coach Whiz calls so much vanilla stuff in preseason that you can't take anything away from it. Also the players are much more intense in the games that matter which makes a big difference as well.

I was hoping that we would find a way to be 2-1, definitely did not think 3-0 would be possible (thought never even crossed my mind). We are without a doubt in the same boat as 49ers fans were last year, everyone knows there is talent but probably didn't expect it to play THIS well. I was pretty confident that our D would at least be a top 10 unit, but I never imagined we would completely man handle New England and Philly in consecutive weeks.

Yep, that's the thing, not that the Cards have won, but that the defense has dominated some pretty good teams!

 

[wilycoyote24]

I thought with our QBs, we would be lucky to win one of the first three. Me and my Vikings-fan friend agreed that 10 wins between our teams would be the most we could hope for (six wins for the Cards, four for the Vikes).

Oh, if I had a Vikings-fan friend I would be playing this on the TV or PC every time he came over:

Loss in NE, opening day, was as guaranteed as they come.




Knew the Seattle game would be tough, but knew we could win. Honestly knew we could beat the Eagles. We have their number. Every time we face them we take it to them (didnt expect to Dominate like we did).


So I was thinking 2-1, 1-2.

3-0, no, just because of the NE game. Noone walking this earth saw that one coming.

I don't know any person I know including myself who actually follows the team who can honestly say they saw 3-0 comming.

The team is getting better it seems as it goes, and I don't want to get ahead of myself here so I won't and I'll just leave it at that.

 

[crisper57]

Yeah I lied in this poll, but I don't care. I'm still drunk on !

 

[ajcardfan]

I thought 2-1 would be a best case scenario, with both Seattle and Philly being very tough games for us to win. If you had asked me on Sept. 8th, I would've said 1-2 was the most likely start. I knew our defense is too good for us to be a complete bottom feeder. Overall, I would've guessed 6-10 or 5-11 as our most likely season records.

 

[Solar7]

I had us marked down for 2-1, but 1-2 wouldn't have surprised me. I was thinking we'd have a 4-3 record or so going into the Monday Night game. That's still possible. I hope we stay humble over the coming weeks.

 

[Cheesebeef]

never a doubt.
