I grew up a Raiders fan...recently moved back home to cali so the Raiders are on tv every week. I have always followed them anyway...just easier now. Must say it was pretty disappointing seeing Carr get injured because he didnt kneel...shameful really.

overall....I dunno...still bleed Cardinal red,... but I have firewood to split too...


mostly I guess I will just be on here bitching with you guys every sunday


I luv ya mans...

My favorite team is the cards obviously. My second favorite team is my FanDuel or fantasy teams. However team 2 will never trump team 1 and will cheer for us to win even if we’re eliminated from the playoffs.

Yeah. I swear I’ve fallen asleep on more games this year than I can ever recall. Could be I’m just getting older, but yes there has been some terrible games. That Cleveland, Tennessee game! Oh my GOD!

I was watching the Hawks and Giants and all I remember was RW running for his life. I was out.
Wilson is amazing to watch, I hate that he is a hawk

I'll root whoever plays Seattle. Hate that team more than any in sports right now.

and I think we're going to see them walk into our house and wipe their ass with us AGAIN in a couple weeks. :(
Watching them vs the Giants...I hate how good they are

I didn't get to watch the Redskins tonight, they were my team before the Cardinals came here.

I wish I could play FanDuel in Arizona...

Same here. I like soccer so much more. It's Cards or nothing in the NFL for me anymore.

It sucks cuz I used to love football. The last few years idk if it's the rule changes or the constant officiating blunders (fixes) but the game just isn't as compelling to me as it used to be. If it's not the Cardinals I basically have no interest either.

YES! Or Online Poker, or bet on games at a sportsbook in a casino... All the other things our incredibly weird state government doesn't allow. :(

We can go to one of the 900 casinos in our state, but betting on sports is just immoral, even in a Casino?

Gotta agree—my interest in soccer has zoomed the past 10 years while my interest in pro football erodes with each passing season.

I'd hate the Eagles if they gave me season tickets and a million dollar a year annuity( although, I'd take the money). Cowboys, Seahawks, Pats, and Steelers get extra hate as well.
Can't really pull for any other team.

Agreed on both. My answer:

The Pittsburgh Penguins

its not over. I am rooting for Drew Stanton and the Cardinals. Drew is 6 - 3 as a starter. There is still a chance.

I don't watch football outside of the Cardinals (and college on Saturday) anymore....even when the Cards suck I still watch them and will continue this season but with them not in a race for anything other than a high draft pick I have even less interest in the rest of the NFL.

Also this message board just got freaking bombed by an Indian spammer.

I'm in no better shape with my second favorite team - NY Jets. Wasn't optimistic before season began but a couple of surprise Ws had me interested. After a couple of blown leads and complete collapse on Sunday I will now simply keep an eye on standings but not watch much this season.

Wentz was great last night but with the Big Red so bad the season comes down to rooting against Washington & Dallas.

I'll be treating them (the Cards) the same way I've treated the Suns for the past few years: My DVR is still set to auto-record their games, but I'll check the scores after to see if it's even worth wasting my time on. I always have better and more productive things to do than give myself a headache.

No second team for me either.

I'm at a point where my kids have so many activities on the weekends, that I have to tape the Cardinal games and watch them later in the evening. Since I usually hear the score before I see the game, I've been skipping watching them this year, for my own sanity.

I didn't see the Eagles game, and only watched 20 minutes of Rams London game. Those two games I didn't watch may represent more missed games for me than over the previous ten years.

Go Cards!!!

A second favorite team does not exist for me and that is why it's going to suck because I will still watch the Cardinals for any win they can get... and football has gotten so mediocre, I do not have three more hours to give to any other franchise :newcards:

Long time soccer guy. I have been coaching for 18 years at various levels. During World Cup I would find excuses to work from home so I could watch the games. Even with the US out of the WC, I still plan to watch as many games as possible.

I used to be a San Diego fan before I moved to the Valley of the Sun. However I can't seem to root for them now that they are in LA.

All I care about now is my Fantasy team.

and the whole controversy about whether to stand or kneel for the flag has had more of an impact on the quality of the game than it should have.

Do you have any factual prood that this is the case???? Any good analytics that show this to be true???
