Don't know, but you think we will lose more than 8 of the last 10? This team isnt near that bad, regardless of its Oline issues. Want to bet?

No way.... Count down to Lindley has started!! I put the over/under at 5 quarters. And I'm taking the under!!
I was actually thinking the same thing.

I think this is a fun team to watch despite the irritating offense. When focused and healthy this is one of the more exciting defenses in the league. Even if we lose the rest of our games I think it's a safe bet that we'll keep most of them close. That is, unless our defense decides to mail it in at some point.

I used to be that way. The game in STL took the fun out of watching this team.
Skelton time :championship:

If this is true that is not good.
First, I hope he heals well. Because this is a horrendous injury. Prayers going out for him.
Second, When can Bartel come back? Because I'm doubting Kolb is back this season if this is true.
I'll put this here because I've been wondering: When was that photo of Fitz and some of the Cardinals with Bush and Clinton taken? Anyone know? Because if it was recent, it means Bartel is in town. He and Fitz are buddies. I really think Bartel comes back to give us 3 QB's if Kolb is out.

Its going to be the same team with or without Kolb. A defense so good that we will be in virtually every game, and an offense so bad that it will be almost impossible to put any team away, no matter how good or bad the opposition is.
Expect the roller coaster to continue.

You could not be more wrong. One thing Kolb did well was limit Turn Overs and that keeps the defense off the field or in good field position to defend. Skelton will turn the ball over on our own 20 at least twice against Minny and the defense will have to over exert itself to hold them to 6 points.
That is my bold prediction.

So you're saying it will be exactly like what Kolb did against them last year?

Kevin Kolb deserves a Purple Heart.
I was so wrong about him that I am disgusted with myself. I never thought he wanted to put his health on the line the way he did, especially since he still gets the millions regardless.
What he did was pick himself off of the NFL scrapheap when practically the whole NFL scene was booing him or calling him a wuss. He played for pride...he played for the love of the game...he played for the love of competition...and he played his guts out for the team, for his teammates...and he made every player, coach, owner and fan proud.
That said---the organization should be thoroughly embarrassed by the way in which it has put all of its QBs in harm's way---by first having a practice squad player try to protect both Skelton's and Kolb's backside in the penultimate pre-season game (and not do anything about it for nearly 5 series), then for not making any move via trade to ameliorate the situation and worst of all for not making any coaching adjustments in order to give marginal-at=best NFL tackles help in protecting the QB---
23 freaking sacks in the last 3 games---is a total disgrace by anyone's standards.
So, thank you Kevin Kolb. Thank you for being Cardinal tough in the toughest situation possible for a QB. You've won a fan in me and millions of others.

No, I am saying that you are wrong in your assessment. If you want to say that, go ahead.

I agree Mitch...and he played pretty darn well behind that shameful Oline too, better than anyone on this board would've imagined.
Kolb may not be the greatest QB on the planet, but I think he proved to himself & to his teammates he can play QB in the NFL at a decent level, which might be a good things for the Cards going forward. IMO you find out about people in times of adversity.
That's a pretty painful sounding injury. thanks Wipo
Well, you can't spell "Wipeout" without "W-i-p-o."
Our season was at the point the fat lady was having twice daily rehearsals. Now the curtain has risen and she's singing loud and clear.
Skelton has regressed horribly. We're toast.
Good thing we have a game left vs Kansas or we wouldn't win another game all season. Oh wait wrong team....

Gotta play the games.
Fortunately, the other teams in the division have proved they're not Supermen.
It's unfortunate that our offense hasn't been good enough to capitalize on all the gifts the defense and ST hands them. But that doesn't mean we can't get lucky and steal a few games if we play hard and keep our heads down.
It's been a freaky-weird season, and anything can happen. And, should this, in fact, be the case, we should keep ourselves in position to take advantage of any gifts bestowed on us by the Gods of Football.
Throw in the towel if ye must, but consider this: Should we somehow find a way to sneak into the playoffs, victory will be all the sweeter.
