I want a Poll: Will we have a two game slide or a 3 game ROMP?

[Doug]

Since I've never made a poll.I need one of you xperts to set it up for me.

Who thinks we're headed for a two game slide due to the titans being everything the media is making them out to be and they are now so awesome they will make the playoffs? That makes me personally sick.The media,even filled with so many ex-players should'nt be so easily fooled.Yet so many are.Makes me mad that NONE of them even really KNOW who the CARDINALS ARE!!!

Depending on turnovers ONLY in the vikes game.I think we win if we win the turnover battle.I just don't know the gameplan that will be used to block Jared Allen nor if we suffer anymore injuries in the titan game that will force us to play backups.So many already think we will lose to the vikes at home again like last year that I just can't wrap my mind around it.

Yes the stadium is gonna be purple more than we would like.It might even be 50/50 at that.Its gonna make us all mad,but I don't blame those that made GREAT deals to make some money off the vike fans to pay for season tickets and playoff tickets,AS THE NEXT CARDINALS vs vikes game is the ONLY ONE THAT COUNTS.As long as we beat the 9er's ourselves on MNF!!!


With NO major injuries this weeks game and a good gameplan by both Whiz AND Davis I see a win with our offense doing its thing and then we do our best to handle the running V.Y. and do a pretty good to great job on C.Johnson.Meaning he comes close to 100 but a lil' short.Thats pretty good as many times as they're gonna try to pitch it to him.I think actually he will make most of his yards on screen passes and that tires out our defense and our older guys like nobody's biz.

Wish we had young Cody Brown and Will Davis for this game.Just think how awesome it will be NEXT year and also in a few weeks Will Davis will be back and causing more havoc again for us in the last two games at least.Then the playoffs.Looks like we might get the packers two weeks in a row as we end the season with them and they are playing well enough to make the playoffs as a wildcard.

Can ONE of you young WIZARDS of the message boards turn this thread into a Poll.(1) Will the CARDINALS be heading into a 2 game slide?
(2)Will the CARDINALS go on a 3 game TEAR and lock up the WESTERN DIVISON?

I'm curious as to what folks here think.Sorry I'm a computer Newb.We did'nt get to take laptops home to study gamefilm and text our fellow players about what we were watching.WOW how things have changed.

A slide. As much progress as this team has made in stability I just don't see a double-digit season in their DNA.
Culture shifts take time.

I think the division championship will be determined Monday Night in Frisco. I hope we still a win in the next 2, but I think we are looking at 2 bad matchups in the next 2 weeks. Prove me wrong Cards.

Funny how the Titans are the second coming of the 85 Bears all of sudden. They did start the season 0-6 and in their 4 game win streak, they the Texans and Jaguars, who at best can be called average. They also beat a terrible Bills and a 49ers team who if did not play the Bears would be on a 6 game losing streak. The Titans are not good and the Cards will be 6-0 on the road after Sunday.

I wouldn't say we embarrased the Jags or Texans either. We were quite possibly a dropped TD pass away from a nail bitter against Jax & a goaline stand away from OT against the Texans.

The Titans are a differant team now than they were earlier in the season, most notably their defense. Injuries & an adjustment period to a new D-coordinator took some time.

This game presents possible nightmare matchups for us, a mobile QB & a RB who can get the edge in a hurry & take it to the house. We haven't played an offensive team all year yet that presents these issues like they do. Our front 7 has nowhere near the the speed of VY & CJ, plus you add in one of the best Olines in football. We can do it with great defensive discipline.

It's going to be a tough game to win, coming down to containing 2 guys for another road victory. A big offensive game will go along way from keeping the Titans best 2 offensive players off the field & virtually clinching another division title.

Go Big Red

11-5, 10-6 wost case

Neither...1-1 going into the MNF game, which we will win.

I like that.

Thats exactly what I am thinking.

The Titans are not as scary as people are making them out to be. VY does pose some problems when he takes off running, but he cant throw the ball to save his life. I see +3 turnover ratio in this game. This team has proven that it can stop the run. 120 yards for Johnson is not going to get it done. Boldin is looking like the Boldin of years past the last couple games and I expect more of the same. Hightower and Wells are banging big time right now. And Fitz is due for a monster game. And Breaston is quietly having another great year. I expect the Cards to shock the Titans who are riding high and reading a whole lot of papers right now calling them the best.

Now the Vikings, well thats a whole different story. I was seriously expecting Farve to be hurt by now. This game could be one of the best games in the NFL.

There is no way the Titans beat us. They won 4 games against average to lower class teams. We dont fit that criteria. I love how the "fans" are already counting us out to beat them. VY is a joke and the team wins despite him. If we can contain Chris Johnson, we will have no problem beating them. AW needs to play a spy all game long. I think we win this game handily, going away even.

Agree that top to bottom we're more talented that TEN.

But I don't like the matchups.

I actually like our chances vs. MIN better. I know that's crazy, since MIN is what, 9-1 I believe. I just think we'll come out hyped up in our house with something to prove.

If you held a gun to my head and made me guess, I'd probably say 0-2. Right now were underdogs in both games.

Freakin kills me to type that. I hope we crush them both, and take most of the drama out of the MNF tilt.

 

[bg7brd]

I agree. I think we beat the Titans Sunday and lose to the Vikings. The good news is that we beat the 49ers and get revenge on the Vikes in the playoffs. What? Could happen.

 

[seesred]

I believe that we will win the Farve game at home on national TV. The Titans giev me some worries only because of the way Young is playing. If we can contain Young we will win on Sunday. As for the Niners we owe them one. IMO we will win at least two out of three. 10 or 11 wins.

GBR
40

Since it was my first poll,I messed up not adding a third option.We should have had the option as many have said they think we win this game against the titans or the new (world champions).

Then we lose against the vikes on SNF.

Then we beat the 9ers in Frisco on MNF.The only game with the vikes is the one in the playoffs anyway.I'd sure like to get revenge twice though.It all depends on the team overall health.I'm sure coach Whiz will not hesitate to rest players during the vikes game if some get reinjured in the NASHVILLE game playing thier azzes off.

The heck with embarassment.We know that well.Yet the game in the playoffs against the vikes is the one you can beat your chest about winning and say the heck with the SNF game.It did'nt count.We'd rather beat them in there own house I guess huh?

Looks like great weather for SUNDAY NIGHT so I don't think we play a bad weather game all season unless Frisco goes haywire on us.
