    OT: When to go for 2

    Hypothetical: You're down 29-14. 4th quarter. 7 minutes left. You score a TD to make the score 29-20. Do you go for 2 now? Or do you kick the XP now and go for 2 after you score again?

    Week 1 Football Outsider rankings are up

    http://footballoutsiders.com/dvoa-ratings/2009/week-1-dvoa-ratings Arizona's offense was atrocious, ranked 28th only ahead of St Louis, Chicago, Detroit, and Carolina. But the offense got really high marks--4th in the league. Only Philadelphia, New Orleans, and Green Bay are ranked higher...

    NFL Replay

    Anyone know if NFL Replay is going to show the other two playoff games? I know they just aired the Philly game last night. The NFL website says it will be airing NFL Replay today, but doesn't say what games will air.

    Are we on NFL Replay tonight?

    I can't imagine that we wouldn't be selected for NFL Replay tonight. But the NFL Network site still doesn't say what games will be aired. Anyone know for sure?

    Line splits?

    One good thing about national games is that people who don't normally watch the Cardinals get to watch them. On another board I frequent, one guy who was watching the Cardinals for the first time noted that the Cardinals have very wide line splits. Wider than he has seen in the NFL this season...

    Cards/Cowboys on NFL Replay

    As you may know, NFL Network replays 4 selected games each week. Usually games with good endings. Obviously, Cowboys/Cards had an exciting ending. It will be on NFL Replay on Tuesday at 9:30 PM EDT. The 8:00 pm EDT game will be the Dolphins/Texans game. They shorten the game to 1.5 hours...

    NFL Total Access to feature the Cards today!

    For all those with the NFL Network, the show NFL Total Access is doing a special feature on each team in the league every day. Today is the Cardinals! I actually haven't seen any of the other special features, so I don't know how detailed it'll be. I caught a glimpse of the Lions show today...

    Pro-Football-reference

    Pro Football Reference has just updated their site. Before, it was really bare bones, with hardly any stats (e.g., they didn't even have QB rating). Now they have a ton of information and it's been re-designed to match baseball-reference.com Here is the Arizona Cardinals team page. Did you...

    Still have a shot at Sunday Night Football?

    I thought that ARI @ SEA was our best chance at SNF. Losing at SF blew that. But we still have a shot, though it's a long shot. Week 15: Currently scheduled is WAS @ NYG. Two playoff contenders and two of the largest TV markets in the country. Highly unlikely to be moved. JAX @ PIT and DET @...

    15% chance of making playoffs?

    Last week, Football Outsiders had us with a 54% chance of making the playoffs. I guess the loss must have affected us more than I thought it would. They only give us a 15% chance of making the playoffs now. http://footballoutsiders.com/stats/playoffodds.php We were #3 on the WC list (behind...

    Rules on cameras in stadium?

    I know that when the stadium first opened, someone posted a link to the rules that said no "professional" camera equipment was allowed. Now that there is nearly two years worth of games there, is there a pattern of what they are letting in and what they aren't? I'm planning on going to my first...

    Cheapest way to get tickets?

    I'll finally be in town for a game this season (12/23 vs ATL), so I'd like to go to one. I haven't been to a Cards game in about 7 years. Back then, I could just find a scalper outside the SDS and pay $20-30/ticket. The stadium was so empty, that I could just sit anywhere I wanted. Obviously...

    Best QB in NFC?

    Who's the best QB in the NFC? It may be blind homerism, but I can't think of a single NFC QB I'd take ahead of Leinart. Romo? Maybe if he didn't hold for the kicker. Bulger's best years are probably behind him, though he should stay productive for a couple more seasons. Hasselback is...

    2006 Attendance figures

    This page is cool: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/attendance?sort=home_perc&year=2006 The Cards went from barely filling SDS to 50% of capacity to filling UoP to 100.3% of capacity. Great work!

    NBA League Pass question

    NBA League Pass is $200 for the season. Does anyone know if DirecTV normally gives a half season discount? While I like the NBA, I don't like it as much as football, so I don't really want to pay full price for it when I already paid a lot for NFL Sunday Ticket.

    How many games have been in HD?

    I'm (still) thinking of upgrading to HD. It almost certainly won't be done in time for this regular season. But I have a question for next season. How many of the Cardinals games were available in HD this season? (I tried to search, but you can't search 2 letter words, so I apologize in...

    Cards get on NFL Replay again

    For the second week in a row, the Cards game will be aired on NFL Network in 90 minute form in the show NFL Replay. It even looks like they added it late, because they usually only show 4 games, but they are showing 5 this week. It doesn't even show up on my DVR guide yet...

    Arizona favored by 3 over OAK

    AZ is favored by 3 and the over/under is 40. Good to see that at least Vegas still has faith in our team.
