If Warner didn't melt down last week we would have won that game too. So like the OP said the only thing that can stop us is us.

what about defense? 270 yards rushing? Missed tackles? Poor schemes?

That has been our MO for quite awhile. But I am still not 100% sold on our defense. We are still giving up way to many big plays.

This team confuses me; one minute they amaze me with their play, and the next I am tearing my hair out! Last week was like a flashback to the teams of old, and this week they're moving the ball and scoring almost at will!

How come we are winning on the East coast, but struggling at home? Gah!

Think about it guys. This team has never (not in Arizona anyway) been able to win consistently. I believe that most of the current players are home grown and are still learning how to do that. Last year we were horrible on the road. Especially on the east coast. Nobody honestly thought we were going to beat the panthers in carolina in the playoffs last year. They learned how to do that when it mattered most. Last year they learned how to win at home but they had something to prove. This year they are learning that any given Sunday doesn't mean that they can beat any team but any team can beat them as well. They need to learn how to win as a favorite. They are doing that. Maybe just not there yet.

Also, a week ago the panthers had a lot of motivation to beat the cardinals. Revenge, and most of all getting the monkey off there backs that we put there last year.
