John Fox has won wherever he's coached. The Bears will be a far better team later in the season. With Cutler & Jeffery, this game goes down to the wire. This is a good road win.

The turnovers right before halftime were the exact types of plays that used to make the Cards implode. Even during the Warner era. This team is just mentally tougher than any past team we've had. They don't crack when faced with adversity. They are not a perfect team, but they are a TEAM.

Great stuff Chris, keep preaching so we all can enjoy these wins more.
Agree with the entire post and the bolded part is spot on.

Just thinking the same thing Cheese.
If Palmer stays healthy all season, we're one of the favorites to make it to the superbowl....
I'm with you.
My Lord man I'm loving it. All I could think of was we have a shot this year. No team in today's cap NFL doesn't have holes.
I like our team.
Someone else mentioned some payback for what Fox had the Broncos do to CC to add to that

Glad to see the Cards win on the road. The team seems to be making improvements in these last two games.
The Bears will not be a FAR better team because the lack of talent.

A note about the defense.
It needs to get better. However,although utler was 8 of 8 for 120 yards most of it was non threatening type completions. Take away the blown coverage on the touchdown pass Cutler would have been 7 of 7 for 72 yards. Not exactly devastating numbers.
The fiasco at the end of the 2nd quarter falls on Arians.
1. If you are going to put Peterson on punt return duty that would have been the time instead of putting him out there when the Bears are trying to pooch one down by the goal line.
Defense bailed him and the team out.
2. With 57 seconds left and on the road with an 11 pt. lead might have been a good time to take the pedal off the metal.
Defense bailed him and the team out again.
I really believe that Arians KNEW there was no way we were going to lose this game based on personel and match ups.
We are a damn good team that I believe is nowhere close to hitting their stride yet we are 2-0, That's what good teams do.
Enjoy!

Could you define the Fiasco? Was it JJ's fumble, hardly BA's fault. Do you mean the pick CP threw? I like BA's killer mentality, the players LOVE it. I mean LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Every once in a while a hall of fame player will make a super athletic play and tip a pass and come down with the interception. Small price to pay for all the dividends paid by BA's coaching philosophy.

I agree with the bolded and would say that taking risks with the O is fine because BA also knows his D will have his back. Even if the Bears had score a TD there BA knows his Offense is going to score plenty of points to win the game.
I turned to my wife after the CP pick and said, man do the Cards have a way of screwing up in epic ways. So I get why fans get upset, I do as well. Thing is after a couple of minutes to reflect and calm down I realize I'm over reacting, well at this point in time I'm over reacting because it's no longer SOC.
Cardinals fans have been scorched so many times that we automatically get nervous when bad things start to happen. We are programmed.
AMEN!

Okay, at what point to we realize our current Cards team is a universe different then those of the past?
Tell that to my heart and nerves.

They are the Cardiac Cards for a reason
Totally agree. I know the offense is better then last year but I'm not sure about this defense.
Agreed. The Saints and Bears are really bad this year. I just hope the team doesn't look past SF to the Rams game, this upcoming week has every making of a trap game.
We have no trap games at home
The Niners are one of our biggest rivals and it's our division opener. There is no chance of it being a trap game.

I read all of them. Number one it's after only two games and we scored almost 50 points on the road at 10a.m. our time. A couple of screwball plays we could have scored more. Have a drink if you need one. A few peanuts. Watch the local sports shows and know that we may get back a starting LG and a star running back. I love football season and we are 2-0!
