We've always let people vent after a loss but enough now. Let's move on to the coming game with St. Louis.

I say Edge gets his first 100 yrd game as a Cardinal!! Just gut feeling. Moreover, Rams are giving up more than 100 yards rushing per game.

I agree. I also think that Boldin and Fitz will both be near 100 yards. I think this game will be a shoot out.

Hopefully with Ross back at RT the Line will be able to start and build some continuity.

In terms of ability to rush the ball, my hope coming into the season was that the team would improve to "mediocre"

The first two games of the season were against teams (based on last year's avg rush per attempt given up) were #11 and #5 in the NFL. A mediocre rushing team will struggle to run the ball against a good rushing defense, and that is what we saw.

The Rams last year were horrible against the run, and while this year the defense looks improved overall -- its still giving up yardage on the ground. If the Cardinals get 25 carries and dont average at least 4 yards per, its time to be concerned.

quite agree...and for the rest of the naysayers...save yourselves some time and learn how to cut and paste your comments after the atlanta game if we all don't like what we see....

144 yrds to be more precise!

Now wouldn't they be generous enough to give just 100 yrds to Edge? That will drastically improve their average and we get our 100 yrds... ;) :D

This one is gonna be big---dare I say 42-7. Q will get 2, Fitz 1, BJ 1 and Edge 2. The defense will be so fired up there will be sacks up and down the field and we will be peanalized for less than 40 yards.

Do I have to wake up now?? Seriously, we will win and win big, but most especially, win beautifully. :D

I didn't see any of last weeks game against the 48'ers, but I did week 1 vs Seattle.

If things go like they have so far, Little might end up with another manslaughter charge and Kurt could be the the victim.

The last I saw the murderer has yet to apologize to the family members of the woman he killed. It is pathetic that the NFL let this murderer continue to play football not to mention the fact he should have seen serious jail time for his actions.

I see this game as pivitol. At home after an embarrasing loss the Cards will be in front of a fickle crowd. We will need to win convincingly as well as show a Big (PI) improvement in our running game in order to build Mo and support going into Oct.
Home field advantage will be critical in the upcoming games especially the Monday night match up and now is the time to build that foundation.
With the front offices cryptic comments this week the squad needs to turn the focus onto the field and to playing mistake free football to get the fans attention.
We dont and IMO shouldnt try to be world beaters this Sunday.
Competent execution and good tempo is what the fans deserve and expect to see. Will Green and this bunch become a team this Sunday??
We can only hope.

We always play better at home lets home this trend continues and we don't see the debacle we saw sunday in Seattle. I say the cards pull their heads out and win fairly convincingly like 28 to 7 would be nice. I would love to see a victory where we don't need Rackers leg to win. Just score TD's baby!!! Edge gets 2 TD's sunday!

So who's going to stop Little from getting about 4 sacks?

That could be a crucial key to the game.

Well put. I hope we can establish the run. If we do it through the air first fine , but establish a run game.

strenth of schedule observation......when a team plays a tough game against a team they do not figure to beat they come back strong....general observation over the years...we did not play great by a long shot but certainly hung in until errors took it's toll.
