So by the time I make my way down to AZ for the Lions game in December should I not worry about a parking pass? I'm figuring they will let me park for free just to get some people into seats in the stadium. Will there be any tailgate parties to go to? Guess I should have waited to buy tickets, I probably could have gotten some for a very low price.

There's a very good chance I could retire my fandom at halftime.

For the fist time EVER, I stopped watching football altogether in the 3rd quarter and caught up with Shameless, Insecure, and American Horror Story with my wife. She was already in heaven after her boys (2-0 Bucs!) smacked the eagles around so she suggested I make a drink (actually my 4th by then) and take my mind off the azz whupping we were being handed. This whole scenario is an absolute disgrace.

Um, anyone else see we're 1 point favorites? Trubisky sucks and won't be the Bears starter in 3 years, but I just watched MNF and that's a better team than us. Their front 7 is good, they have 2 decent CB's, and an offensive scheme.

My joke was going to be that our goal should be to beat the spread but I'm seeing us as favorites. If you're into betting, time to go make some money. I will literally be happy if we keep it within a score so I have a reason to watch the 4th quarter for the first time this year.

LMAO!! I don't mean to laugh cardpa, but that's bad. This team is ruining our pland before the midway point. I'm going to NO with my eagles friends in November and was hoping to enjoy the game against the Raiders at a sports bar in the French Quarter, but now it looks like I'll be drinking away the pain while two REAL teams play.

Trubisky is better than Sam at this point. At least he can orcastrate a drive from one end to the other. Sam can’t even make a first down! Mitch is young and can scramble. Mack will hurt Sam so on the bright side we might see some Rosen. I seriously think we’d go 0-16 with Sam.

I'll just come out and say it... this game has false hope W written all over it.

The Bears offense is putrid, they're coming off a really good W, but playing on a short-week and this is basically the Cardinals last stand. Wouldn't surprise me if a young Bears team came in a little over-confident. They shoulda beat the Pack and won a game under the lights. If that was the Cardinals, I'd be dreading that the next game was a completely blown opportunity against a terrible team.

It will be SUPER ugly, but I think somehow, someway the Cards pull out an otherwise unexplainable W simply because they're at home and ish happens. Then they lose the next 6 games.

I know it's bad. I could end up going to a game where half the stadium is empty. At least the bathroom shouldn't have any lines and concessions should be quick too. Of course the Lions may not be much better so it could end up being a comedy of errors at this game. Maybe I'll just eat the cost of the tickets and go somewhere else in December.

Use the tickets. Go to the game. Life being what it is that game might build lifetime memories...could possibly even be your last one ever.
Plus...once we win back to back to back super bowls...you will have that great " remember when" story of that time you and that other guy sat across the field from 300 lions fans in a near empty stadium and stared them down all day until the inevitable 0-0 tie

agreed. You'll also get to see the progression of The Rosen One, who no doubt should be starting by then. And if he's not, the entire franchise should be burned to the ground due to sheer stupidity.

For those of you wanting Rosen now.... Be very careful what you wish for. Rosen holds on to the football a little to long (college speed still) and will likely get hurt against a quality defense like Bears, Rams, etc. If we are to believe he is the future lets not get him hurt and gun shy.

As to the post on the Cardinals chance of winning...How can any team win without scoring? Talk to me or other fans when they cross the 50 yard line...LMAO

Very good points guys, You have convinced me to show up to the game.

I can't see the Cardinals being the favorites over any team when they barely struggled to cross midfield one time and that was near the end of the game.

Probably the most astonishing stat to ever come out of a game . I still have a hard time accepting it. Has there ever been a team that has not crossed midfield in a game?

We're 6.5 point dogs now, my ESPN app showed us as 1 pt favorites but that was either a glitch or they hadn't adjusted based on Sunday's performance. Would have been a chance to make some money. Hate to say it, even at 6.5 I'd be shamefully excited if we covered that spread.
