Indy Rumor from a Good Source - Cards not active in Free Agency due to trading down

[cardpa]

I agree! If it weren’t for three plays on the final drive, we’d have our Super Bowl. Play 1) can’t remember the DT but he had Rothensburger sacked at the 2 yard line but let him get away 2) Fransisco on the field taking a nap… he fell down and the WR gained like 35 yards 3) everyone knows the final dagger. Still can’t believe both feet touched. What is done is done I guess and I’m almost over it.

That was Dockett who had Rothenburger and let him get away.

The pick 6 at end of half killed us.

 

[imaCafan]

AND there was a block in the back on that play! Should have been called back, no TD!

Pls don't relive this nightmare again. Pls.

Re: 2 - It was DRC's coverage responsibility. He took a bad angle, slipped and was the real cause of that gain.

It didn't kill us but had we scored; we would have cruised to the win. IMO.

That’s why it killed us. Not only did they score a TD but we lost out on at least 3 points

We had the lead and lost it with 1.37 on the clock. We were in a position to win. That's the truth.

Yup the key to the game is we couldnt stop them at the end of the game and that’s all that matters. Oh and the final TD was not a TD….

Everytime I think about that Superbowl

I’m soooo sorry for opening the wounds again! My point was Legend Larry DID help get us there and I will always remember when he looked up at the jumbo tron.

It was Dockett.

 

[Cardinal88]

I thought it was Antonio Smith.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Cool.

How many superbowls did we win with Fitz, P2 or both?

Luxury players.

Some thread has to get hijacked and we are forced to relive the super bowl every year. This is the thread. This is the time. We are cardinals fans. We pay our penance.

Nope. Aaron Francisco and the idiot DC that schemed him to cover their best receiver, leading to a huge chunk gain, killed us.

This is the Way.

And then he won the SB with Indy the next year if I remember correctly. The irony of it all...oh the pain, the pain...

Of course, but a 10 to 14 point swing in one play didn’t?

 

[BulldogCard]

It was the pick 6 by Harrison for a 101 yard interception return for a touchdown with 0 on clock at the end of a half that killed us. Those type of plays are hard to overcome in many ways.

 

[ajcardfan]

I thought it was Antonio Smith.

Could be. My memory is slipping some. I am not Youtubing it to find out. I have never watched it again after the Fitz TD.

 

[Stout]

Nope. We took the lead with less than 2 minutes left. The game was in our hands.

I didn't realize we never took the lead in the 2nd half!

Good point, but the psyche gets damaged on big plays because they know they made a play. True, but those plays define big games.

 

[Red Bird]

Not quite. DRC tried to jump Ben’s pass when he pump faked, leaving Holmes open. Ben passed to Holmes, Francisco falls down, and the rest is history. That is the play that really killed us. Before that play they were probably on pace for a medium to long range field goal to send the game to OT.
