Keep taking them! So you said on the radio that you thought they would have a better record than most expected (I think) so what do you think 16-0? 15-1? 14-2 at the worst?
Did I say that? Are you sure it wasn't an imposter? I have many of those, you know. Everyone wants to be like the NEMster.
I thought I said that while they may not win many games, I think they will be a lot more competitive in a lot of games than many think....
I think too many of you are not giving enough credit to the teams on their schedule, though.
Everyone is saying that their schedule is easy, but remember, it is based on LAST YEAR"S standings, and many of those teams have improved a lot, including Seattle, the Rams, even Detroit and Cincinnati.....
I can't see them winning more than 5 games, but they will be competitive in many more....
I reserve judgement on their two first round draft picks which , I believe, were both taken way too early.
Bryant Johnson, for example... A PENN STATE WIDE RECEIVER????? Come on, they are a running team under Joe Paterno.....
And, Calvin Pace? A second rounder getting first round money.
And, I still believe they need to move Leonard Davis to left tackle to get the best out of him. I have been saying that since the day he was drafted.
BTW, what's the status of Jason McAddley? I havent heard much about him and I took him on my fantasy team (very late pick when no one else was left)
Now, if you will excuse me, I have to go and dig out my "official" PHOENIX CARDINAL t-shirt out of the closet that I have had since 1988.
Contrary to popular belief, I have always rooted for the Cardinals,(after the Patriots, of course) until Jake Plummer was drafted, against my wishes.....and now that the cancer is gone.....well, I guess I am just getting soft in my old age.
