    Should KK be on the Hot Seat??

    No...at different times in the season, the Cards have impressed. And, as was pointed out, there's no reason to replace him unless there's someone available to hire who will give you better results. Let's face it...unless the team has a total meltdown....he's here to stay and probably until the...

    OT: Tua to start. Faces Cardinals in his 2nd game

    There's a reason Fitzpatrick has been on eight NFL teams. The big one I see is that he has put together a string of good games together several times....but he always seems to lose it at some point and returns to backup status. Tua has the potential to take them to the top and young QBs seem...

    Kirk and Isabella..

    We took what the defense gave us. Hopkins was open all day long, or at least, as open as a great receiver like he is needs to be. What do you expect Kingsbury to say, "Hopkins is catching too many, we need to get other receivers involved." That makes sense if you're getting badly beaten, but...

    Can we please talk about the fake crowd noise?

    New England's Bill the legend said after the game that without the crowd, it was more like a scrimmage or a practice environment for the players. I appreciate the crowd noise....even though it's fake....because no crowd noise would make it surreal and unreal. It may need to be fine-tuned, but...

    What happened to Isaiah Simmons?

    It was his first NFL game, with no pre-season. Too much drama with no direction...we WON the game against a team that went 13-3 last year. Simmons will be fine and doesn't have to worry about being cut, as some of you are suggesting. It's realistic that he makes mistakes in his first...

    A letter from Mike Hazen

    Still hate thinking about our deal to send SS Dansby Swanson to Atlanta for SP Shelby Miller......Miller is and was a total bust as Swanson gets better every year....

    A letter from Mike Hazen

    I would also have liked to see some other veteran players traded for younger talent. Escobar, Peralta, Calhoun, and Ahmed, are all in their 30s with their best years likely behind them. The only possible young star of the starters, Ketel Marte, came into the season with us expecting more...

    When should the Dbacks fire Lovullo?

    Torey has put together three solid seasons as D-backs Manager. And that was with almost one-third of the team's payroll being given to one player, Zack Greinke. As for the musical chairs, I believe he's just trying to maximise what each player does best and also to try to find a lineup that...

    CK In Cardinal Red?

    Aside from the politics, it's a question of whether he can improve the QB depth chart for the Cardinals or any other NFL team. He's not owed an NFL position, but will need to earn it like everyone else who has not played for a few seasons. Teams will need to look at what he can do for them...

    Mid-Life Cardinals......errr,...crisis

    I've been a Cardinals fan longer than you've been alive. I love the team and follow them through the good and bad seasons, no matter how they turn out. Remember, it's still just a game. I won't feel any better about my life if the Cards win the Super Bowl before I'm done. I hate to see...

    ****Rumor July 1st is the target date*****

    July 1 is approaching rapidly and still no agreement on how many games to be played and how much to pay the players....and then there's all the other details to be worked out. It doesn't look promising...what's that cliche, "For the love of the game."

    The DJ Trade

    I was stunned. I had no idea that Keim could pull off such a deal. DJ's big contract and his poor performance lately had me believing, like others on the forum here, that DJ had zero trade value. So the questions are: 1. Has Hopkins' play begun to decline making him unworthy of a bigger...

    Hopkins impact on Fitz

    This is a case where Fitzgerald's numbers going down will be a good thing offensively for the Cardinals. It's not a reflection on his performance, but would be an indication that one or more of the younger WRs have begun to emerge as consistent receivers. I'd like to see KM spread the ball...

    Todd Gurley says Rams still haven't paid him:

    Hopefully, they both got their stimulus checks.

    OT: Arrest warrants issued for armed robbery for NFL cornerbacks DeAndre Baker and Quinton Dunbar

    These guys really know how to ruin a good party.

    To what degree have you ever hated our Cards?

    Way back when I was a kid and lived in St. Louis and they were the St. Louis Cardinals football team with John David Crow and Sonny Randle... Obviously, some games are more exciting when they are still meaningful with the possibility of the playoffs. But I always want to see how the team is...

    Simmons is a safety, not a linebacker

    Brit Card quote:"Game 1 Hicks and Campbell are at ILB. Simmons is SS/Nickel backer/slot. Whatever you want to call him. But Hicks and Campbell are starting linebackers." I thought the your argument was that "Simmons is a Safety, not a Linebacker" not a "whatever you want to call him."

    Simmons is a safety, not a linebacker

    In my opinion, would someone please declare BritCard the winner of this debate? As with most debates and discussions, at some point action has to be taken or the same points keep getting repeated over and over again.

    Kenyan Drake as a top-10 fantasy RB1?

    I think, as long as he stays healthy and gets most of the snaps, it's certainly reasonable to expect him to be a Top Ten Fantasy RB1. But this will also be due to the success of Murray as a running threat and improvement on the O-line. The Top Ten Fantasy RBs are not necessarily the best RBs...

    Sluggs

    I don't think any talent evaluator can predict exactly how a human being will perform on an NFL field. Every NFL team has players who outperform their contracts and those who underperform. Contracts seem to be the product of market forces but the whole thing is an inexact science. Of course...

    Simmons is a safety, not a linebacker

    So we may never agree on safety or linebacker for Simmons. He was named an All-American as a LB. I think his abilities likely most fit the following definition - The weak side linebacker, or WILL, is the primary playmaker of the defense and got his name because he is typically positioned in the...

    OT: The Red Rifle was just released

    The Cowboys signed him... It looks like a smart move. A 3-million$ contract with incentives is worth it for a guy could step in for Prescott. There are reports that Prescott is unhappy he didn't get the big long-term deal this time around. If that feeling lingers into the season, the Cowboys...

    Josh Rosen for backup QB?

    Rosen is a completely different type of QB than Murray. For one thing, he's not mobile, or at least in comparison to Murray. And that alone makes him unable to run the plays Murray does. Teams rarely want a backup who needs to run a different offensive scheme to be successful. I hope Rosen...

    OT: The Red Rifle was just released

    There's no question Dalton will be on some NFL team. He's got too much experience and at 32, still should have some productive years ahead. And while no team wanted to trade for him, teams can now try to get him cheap, and I expect at some point he will take one of those offers. I see...

    Simmons is a safety, not a linebacker

    Can Simmons play Strong Safety?....sure he could. The question is how to maximise his athleticism and versatility. That's as a LB being moved around in different defensive packages and covering TEs and RBs coming out of the backfield. Compared to those mentioned here earlier...Rod Woodson and...
