I'm mildly optimistic that the "real" Cards will show up, as well as the "real" Niners. 28-14 Cards.

Gotta win this one. Even with Stanton, the 9ers are in bad, bad shape injury wise.

If we cant beat this team, well, it doesn't bode well.

RUN THE BALL!!!!

And for all the insecure fans of other teams who like to troll and have their fragile egos question themselves... here is one just for you to have something to feel good about and still have anxiety before the game, just get all heated, Cardinals 40 and the Niners 13 :)

Need to come out strong and focused.

Do not let them get a lead, score on the first drive of the game or the first series after the half.

Both lines have their work cut out for them.

I saw a roadrunner in my backyard this afternoon. We spent a couple of minutes eyeing each other then he ate a lizard that looked a lot like Colin Kapernick. OK...I made up the part about Kapernick, but since we're on the road I'm taking it as an omen.

Cardinals by 10.

Really hope to be proven wrong.

Found an interesting writeup on the CBS site about why BA's offense may be floundering.

A theory on why Arians' offense has fallen flat
Before Bruce Arians made his way to Arizona, he had great success as the Steelers' offensive coordinator. Arians' offense, which featured Ben Roethlisberger, was all about the big play, a task made infinitely easier when you can throw bombs to Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown all day. In fact, you can make a good argument that Arians deserves a cut of that five-year, $60 million contract Wallace signed with the Dolphins because he showcased Wallace's talents on a weekly basis during their time together in Pittsburgh.

According to Pro Football Focus, the Cardinals' offense is most successful on passes thrown 10-19 yards downfield, with three touchdowns and an interception. On passes over 20 yards, however, Carson Palmer is below average, with a lone touchdown against four interceptions. Put another way: Palmer ranks 21st out of 25 quarterbacks in PFF's deep passing metric, right behind Brian Hoyer (!).

Interestingly, Palmer is fifth in the league in the percentage of downfield passing attempts (14.9 percent), but 21st in downfield accuracy (34.8 percent).

A lot of those picks were end of game desperation though, I don't think Palmer has earned as much grief as he's getting
