Who thinks the Cards will be good this year?

[Shaggy]

I have a feeling they won't be. Getting that feeling from what I saw in the last preseason game. This all feels like deju vu as they played like this last year in preseason and we all know how the season ended.

I hope I'm wrong.

A lot will vary based on the teams health. Especially John Brown and Nkemdiche coming back along with Palmer staying upright. If we are healthy, I think we win 11 games and go to the playoffs.

 

[TJ]

11-5 and the division.

 

[Solar7]

Good is relative. Do I think we're as good as '15? Nope. But do I think we're going to hang on and win games we lost last year? Yes. We were a few missed kicks from being a playoff team last year.

 

[RugbyMuffin]

10-6 at best, and 7-9 at worst.

 

[DVontel]

10-6 at best, and 7-9 at worst.

Pretty much this.

If we're going to make the SB, we'll have to do it as the 6th seed.

 

[MrYeahBut]

By hook or crook we somehow make the playoffs

I put down a few bills on the over of 8. Last year I got burned at 9.5 so jokes on me if it happens again.

I had high hopes... but after what we have seen so far in camp my hopes are nearly dashed. Just like the past few years we have moments... moments where we look fast, fresh, and disciplined..moments in which we look great...
but then we have cardinal moments...moments where we look like a 57 buick on an Indy track...Andre the giant wearing water wings and an innertube trying to race usain bolt...a space shuttle launch after the special Olympians tour got loose in nasa.
this team is not tight...they are not crisp,.. and they are not disciplined... the only saving grace is that at least it should not be 1990's level suckage...these guys can beat any team in the NFL...they just wont.

Guessing 9-7. Special teams will be mediocre again...costing us several games, but I think the offense will be good, and the defense will generate tons of turnovers in the bend-don't break style.

I totally agree with John Brown and Nkemdiche playing huge roles in our success. If we can find a consistent playmaker on the outside at WR and on the DL, I think this will be a really tough team that will make playoffs. I'm afraid Palmer is going to be forcing too many balls into tight coverage this year if someone doesn't step up. And that isn't going to be pretty!

In two preseason games they have not played like they did last year and have had only one game so far with recounts last preseason... therefore according to their overall tenure with Arians, I expect them to make the playoffs

Last year, as bad as the team looked, they were a few plays each loss from winning 11 games at least. The kicking game alone lost the first game and led to the tie. That puts us as 9-7 right there. Throw in the first Rams game where sloppy punt coverage led to the losing TD and that's 10 games. Would they have gone far in the playoffs? Probably not. But they would have been there.

They were a 7/9 team stop

Too many excuses, they deserved to be the 13th worst team in the Nfl

As long as palmer stays healthy should be a fun yr! Also really hoping b williams shows signs of improvment we shall see. Go Cards!

Agree

We have issues at ILB, CB2, ST's and coaching that will make or break this team. BA being so stubborn in certain areas really hurt us last year. Could happen this year also.
