Is the organization getting a little cocky to early?

[Shane]

I think this would have been better waiting till after the Seattle game. Based on results.

Agreed. Especially in light of the fact the Cards haven’t won at home vs. Seattle in what, 6 seasons?

 

[BritCard]

Does the team have control over what Odegard writes? Agreed its bad timing from him though when we haven't beat a winning team.

Well considering the cards sign his paycheck in regard to this story I would say so.

Normally they have editorial freedom though right? Or they could never write about us sucking and would just pump out puff pieces.

That’s pretty much what they do over the years. Especially Urban

 

[Jetstream Green]

Probably so, but it means little if they are overdoing it or under doing the team's capability in the realm of word wars when the only factor is if they win or not

 

[TaylorSwift]

I am on the hype train

 

[DVontel]

Says we have the “look” of a playoff team.


Didn’t say we are one.

There's the likelihood we are going to go off that break on the tracks ahead... but maybe, just maybe we will jump the break and land safely back on the tracks lol

I didn't sense cockiness from that.

I consider the team a playoff contender, especially since 7 of the 16 NFC teams will make the playoffs. The Cardinals are currently one of the 7 teams that if the playoffs started today would be in them.

Cardinals at this point are better than:

Any NFC East team
Falcons
Vikings

Teams not in the playoffs that will contend:
New Orleans
Carolina
SF
Detroit (Maybe)

They are 4-2 in NFL toughest division. They should be proud of that. Especially since how poor we have been for so long.

they got cocky already once this season and got their ass beat the next Sunday.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Show me one quote in that article that is cocky. I don't see it.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Agreed.

Especially since they claimed that the practices before Det and Car were a bit underwhelming.

 

[AZ Native]

We haven't done anything yet. This type of article makes us look bad.

 

[sdscard4]

Article is spot on we're a damn good team. Injuries did us no favors and we still doing good. Yeah maybe we haven't beaten the chickens at home in awhile but we own Seattle in Seattle. It's a wash

Neither has 29 other teams. You start doing things by winning your division and going to the playoffs

 

[GatorAZ]

Is it really necessary for the organization to have more than one writer?

lol. for real. they do pump out different type of pieces at least. AZcentral only lets you read 10 articles a month and three articles will come out analyzing the same quotes from twitter. Even my twitter feed, because I follow a bunch of az sports media, they ALL tweet out the same comments from pressers.

 

[Yuma]

Dallas wasn't Dallas of early season. I wince at the recognition we are getting.

 

[Yuma]

Plus look at Dallas, they are atop of their division with that crappy record and 1-0 in their division. They are in the driver's seat there. We have to beat good teams in our own division yet!

 

[cardncubfan]

I thought it was a good article & one you would expect on the team site.

Not quite right, they are 1-0 in the NFL toughest division. They are 4-2 overall against teams that are a bit underwhelming. They still need to play 5 divisional games. They beat 4 teams with a combined record of 6-18 and lost to two teams with a combined record of 5-6. Overall the teams they have played are 11-24.
