OK that's a little extreme. Our defense is stout enough to keep this team from being at the bottom and we still have David Johnson and Fitz to keep the offense from being completely lifeless. This team would have to be completely ravaged by injuries for this to be a remote possibility.

I have us at six wins.

Not sure DJ and Fitz will matter if Bradford gets injured early and looking at our O-line, there will be plenty of opportunity for that to happen.

With Bradford, I think we’re a total middle of the road bad team at 5-11 or 6-10. With him out early, I can easily see 3-13 with The Ostrich calling the shots under Center.

Unbalanced home vs. away schedule after the bye is not in the Cardinals favor. Why is Seattle facing us at home once again in the last game?!

Glennon is not starting QB material, but a lot of people don't seem to realize that Glennon is objectively MILES better than Stanton or Gabbert. The Cardinals just went 8-8 with mostly those two clowns at QB and no DJ. If Johnson stays healthy this year, i just see zero chance of 3-13. Wilks and his staff would have to be completely inept and, unlike Arians, unable to get the team to endure adversity and compete.

If we started tomorrow I'd say 6 or 7 wins (maybe) that being said, we don't start tomorrow and we've had no offseason. All things considered I'm not too excited about this year at all...I haven't felt this way in a long time and it started with BA doing all he could to win those last few games even tho he knew he was retiring and I, for one, would've been fine losing and getting in the top 10 (not that ya lose on purpose but where was that attitude in the first month?) and yet here we are again at 15 middle of the draft again sigh

Which games you attending? I bought my tix earlier tonight to the Lions game :mrgreen:

Well we only got three choices this year. There are only three stadiums we have not been to Seattle, San Fran, and Chargers (although I did see the cards play a preseason game in San Diego). The boy was just a little tyke then and him, his sister, and mom were off to grandma's so Dad got to break away. We want to do the chargers game but it fell at the worst possible time thanksgiving weekend (tough travel). So we're thinking about Seattle as that may be Fitz's last game.

FTFY. Playoffs homeboy ;)

Bradford is actually pretty damn good if he’s healthy. So if he can last long enough to get some wins in the beginning of the season I could see 8-8 or 9-7

Beginning is the easiest part of the schedule we need a good QB for after the bye week. Wouldn’t surprise me if we started 2-1 or 3-0 then finish 3-10.

ARIZONA CARDINALS

Sept. 9 vs. Washington Redskins, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Win. They downgraded at the QB position and didn’t do anything to improve their team from a year ago. Plus home opener and the stadium will be rocking.

Sept. 16 at Los Angeles Rams, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. Tough game on the road. Obviously, the rams are the team to beat.

Sept. 23 vs. Chicago Bears, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Win. One of the worst teams in the nfl last year and trubisky needs to be better for them.

Sept. 30 vs. Seattle Seahawks, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)

Win. Seattle isn’t scary anymore. The legion is dead and we always manage to keep their offense in check. They no longer have jimmy graham or Paul Richardson and their line is still awful.

Oct. 7 at San Francisco 49ers, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. I think this is a winnable game. Divion games are always tough on the road.

Oct. 14 at Minnesota Vikings, 1 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. I’ll have to listen to everyone at work then following week about it too....


Oct. 18 vs. Denver Broncos, 8:20 p.m. (FOX/NFLN)
Win. Keenum had one good year, like Matt cassel, and traded away talib. Short week normally favors the home team too.

Oct. 28 vs. San Francisco 49ers, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Win. Long week to prepare and we’ll be ready.

Nov. 4 -- BYE
Nov. 11 at Kansas City Chiefs, 1 p.m. (FOX)
Win. Tough game on the road, but no Peters or Johnson on the d and maholmes being in his first year as a starter has me thinking they won’t be very good this season.

Nov. 18 vs. Oakland Raiders, 4:05 p.m. (CBS)
Loss. I don’t know what type of Derek Carr we’ll see, but he didn’t look good last year. I think he’ll rebound, but we’ll see.

Nov. 25 at Los Angeles Chargers, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. This is normally the time when the chargers kick it into overdrive for the season, but it’s a winnable game.

Dec. 2 at Green Bay Packers, 1 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. Their d isn’t good, but Rodgers is tough for any defense to contain.

Dec. 9 vs. Detroit Lions, 4:05 p.mM. (FOX)
Win. We’ll beat them in AZ. I think we would have beat them last season if DJ didn’t fumble deep in our territory, but, if if’ and but’s....

Dec. 16 at Atlanta Falcons, 1 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. Tough game on the east coast late in the season.

Dec. 23 vs. Los Angeles Rams, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Loss. They’re just a better team.

Dec. 30 at Seattle Seahawks, 4:05 p.m. (FOX)
Win. We own Seattle.

Record 8-8

Couple of games marked as an L could easily become a w and vice versa.

I might attend that last game fearing the end as well! Seattle is freaking awesome especially if you stay close to the stadium

Gotta disagree on “pretty damn good” even when healthy.

Even in the four years he stayed healthy enough to play 15 games or more, he only averaged 3600 yards, 19 TDs and 12 INT.

Those are pretty damn pedestrian numbers in what’s been a predominately passing league his entire career. Doesn’t make a lot of mistakes, but doesn’t make a lot of plays either.

Bottom line for me is he’s a caretaker quarterback on the field, who constantly ends up being carried off it.

Agree, a stop gap guy until the rookie qb is ready
If this management demand to find a qb in later rounds better being replaced very soon

Isn't this the same Ostrich many here considered our savior not 2 seasons ago?

The reason I asked is that sometimes it snows in Atlanta. This makes our road game there a non-snow game (leaving GB as our only potential snow-game).

Yeah, Atlanta's not a potential snow game. Okay, so there's more chance of it snowing there over LA or AZ, but it's no Denver or GB :)

I'm confident we'll beat the Raiders, possibly Chargers as well.

Bradford had 3 OC's his first 4 years in the league when he was relatively healthy. That didn't help his numbers any having to learn a new offense each year.

doesn't change the fact that a) he's "pretty damn good" when healthy and b) if he was "pretty damn good" maybe his continual mediocreness wouldn't have necessitated 3 different coordinators in 4 years. When you're pretty damn good, you should be pretty damn good in most offenses, IMO.

When you are a seasoned vet yes. When you are a rookie no. I guess we will see when the season starts. I have a ton of confidence in Sam. I watched a lot of Rams games & Sam is a very good QB.
