Great Game By The Cardinals


After watching this team get absolutely HOSED by the refs on two fumble, a BLATANT hold on the Barber run, and various "what the hell are they doing?" moments.

After listening to Dick Stockton and Troy Aikman just stroke off the Cowboys the whole second half. To Dick Stockton thinking we didn't make it on 3 and 1. To both of them stuttering in shock at the end because they could not believe what they saw.

To play a game where just about EVERY bounce went the Cowboys way.

To play against the franchise, big money, media darling Cowboys.

To play without Anquan Boldin and a dinged up secondary.

Talk about fighting when the chips are down, talk about playing through adversity, talk about playing against the "Same ol' Cardinals Curse"

THAT WAS A HUGE WIN! A BIG WIN! I am very proud of this team, I am very proud of the Cardinals fans who where at the game cheering till the last minute.

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! !!!!!

:hastheball:

Well said, I am almost in shock, I'm so used to the kick in the nuts that usually happens, when the Cards inevitably lose to something that makes me want to laydown in the fetal position. Its over the Cards did it against DALLAS!!! YES>YES Yes

I am at a loss for words..... Big win.

4-2. 2 game lead.

I'm very happy with how the players never gave up and the overall intensity of the defense and special teams. Not too thrilled with the jekyll & hyde playcalling of the offense but the scored when it really counted. No more excuses for this team to not slam the door anymore. I guess a free pass on the near failure today is okay since this was a "next level" game for them but that 70 yard outlet pass and 40 yard pass to Witten still happened.

Two brain farts by Whiz and staff - unneeded onside kick in 3rd quarter and timeout before the blocked 52 yard FG

Good thing we survived both goofs!

AND,

Deion Sanders is acting like an arse on NFLN. Which is fine. He is a homer, and so am I.

But seriously, he sounds like a bias Cowboy fan. Sitting there sulking about how the Cowboys just lost to the Cardinals. Nice to see Eisen try and shut him up, and nice to hear Mariucci say we are for real.

Deion Sanders....all I have to say to you is SCOOOORE BOOOARD!

I think they were playing with fire the whole first half and really got lucky on the doink by the Cowboys. I just can't understand, especially after the success vs. Buffalo, why Whis/Haley continue to close the playbook. I actually wonder if Whis took the playcalling away from Haley in the first half because they showed Haley on the sideline with a pissed off look on his face and no cheat sheet or anything that the playcaller usually has in hand.

I know Warner was jawing at him after one of the earlier series dominated by running plays and they later, finally, went away from that approach and went back to what they were calling vs. the Bills.

Over coming adversity and bad happenings are what winning teams do.

Luck?

Seriously, any luck was on the Cowboys side today. A bounce here, and compentent ref there and we win by two touchdowns.

That doink was karma baby, KARMA!

it wasn't blocked. the kicker let up and kicked it into the ground when he heard the whistle. still makes no sense to try to ice kickers.
