Let's get this started early

I believe this is a must win game. We have to clinch the NFC West and by winning today we do it. Need that bye week and home game in the 2nd round.

Seattle may just win out and we can't take the chance. Carolina may lose and we could possibly host both games at home.

Eagles D-line has been coming on strong. Our Oline needs to protect CP today and establish the run game.

Obviously getting the win is great, but we all should be Raiders fans today too.

Really don't care what Seattle does today, but we really need a Packers loss.

We can't control what other teams do but we can take a huge step by winning this game. GO :newcards::newcards::newcards:

True and a Giants win wouldn't be horrible

DJ needs to have a strong game and hold on to the ball... if DJ plays solid, this will open up the offense for Palmer to throw deep to mid and we will win :)

Arizona's John Brown approaching 1,000 yards in second season

Arizona WR John Brown, who worked on his strength and technique in the offseason, has seen his production increase despite nagging injuries.

Sounds like you are afraid of the Packers. We play them next week and can do our own laundry if the Packers win today.

Or you know, we would clinch the #2 seed today without added stress, but if you want to think dumb, I'll think dumb along with you.

I suppose we should pull for Minnesota today as well. If they win out (including the finale against Green Bay), they clinch the NFC North at 11-5 and couldn't pass us for the first-round bye. We would clinch at least the 2-seed assuming we don't screw up the strength-of-victory tie-breaker over Seattle (only THREE more games needed, out of ELEVEN).

If you're worried about Seattle catching us, also root for Cincinnati, Denver, and New Orleans this weekend. Three wins here (or two wins and a tie) would clinch the NFC West for the Cardinals.

Thank you for such intellectual insight. My whole point was that we control our own destiny and don't NEED the Packers to lose.

If you can't handle the stress take up knitting, rookie. I would also suggest reading the rules of the board.

slandrac, please go back and edit your post again. You're better than that, man. You've been here forever and I've never seen you go off like that....

The Eagles defense is putrid against the run. Hopefully we can exploit this.

I agree, but we need to throw first to set the run up. Too many times recently we have been a bit conservative and it has lead to 2nd or 3rd and longer than 5. Get the Eagles defense on their heels and we'll really loosen up the run game.

I'll take any win tonight, ugly or otherwise.

Looking for DJ to have a monster break-out game. 150 yards rushing, 50 or so receiving, 2 TDs. MARK IT!
