8-9 and lots of angry fans. Particularly with a 4-8 run to end season.

I think I’m the only one that is more nervous about that Jacksonville game than the Cincinnati game. Regardless of location.

I think the Jags will be significantly improved this season while Cincinnati will be worse.

Also, look at the teams with bad OLines. If our DLine & DBs lives up to their billings, those are games where the defense should take over barring injury, even with Kyler’s fading history.

9-8. Not enough for the wild card. We're right there for the Division after beating the Rams in week 14 but crumble down the stretch... again.

Hate to put so much stock in one player, but if Kyler stays healthy and plays well, Cardinals can win 11 or 12 games. This is recognizing that the defense should be vastly improved over last year and the fact that the schedule is not as tough. Offense held its own last year and I expect that unit to play equally as well this season. An 11-6 record should be the expectation this season. I’m really excited to see the defense on the field, given the free agent signings and the drafted players. That unit should be exceptional.

I get what you are saying, but I still have more of a concern of going against Burrow, Chase and Higgins than Lawrence, Thomas and Hunter. Also, Kyler outside in December in Cincy is a significant concern for me vs Burrow.

will Kyler even throw 20 times though? Seems if our defensive front beats up on cincys weak oline,... JC and the boys should dominate most of our offense...which also reduces Trey Handrickson as a factor

Kyler did not have a single game in 2024 where he attempted less than 20 passes so I would say, yes.

Seattle games will be tough as they both come off short weeks.

LAR games late in the season are better as older QBs can wear down.

Have to like Kyler only having 3 outdoor games post Oct. SEA, TB and CIN.

Have to hope you can go at least 3-3 in the division.

Have to go 4-0 vs NO, CAR, TN and IND

Can you go 4-3 vs GB, DAL, JAC, TB, HOU, ATL, CIN?

It’s not so much about Kyler vs Burrow, it’s about liking our defensive line(if they play up to their potential) against Cincinnati’s putrid offensive line. I also like the potential of our secondary to challenge Ja’Marr & Tee better than most. You guys are just looking at Joe & the WR duo while ignoring the mostly mediocre players everywhere else. Games like that should be games where our defense should hound & potentially even take over. We haven’t had that in a long time.

I just did a quick count and the Cardinals play 13 games in domed stadiums this season.

First outdoor game is against the Niners in late September. Weather should be beautiful.

The @Seattle game in November could be rainy

The Bucs game in November should be really nice with lower humidity

The Bengals game in late December will probably be crappy weather.

I thought I'd have us going 10-7, but honestly, I had to work to get to 9-8. That back end of the schedule is simply brutal. If things go well, I could see us winning another game or two. I could also, if things go bad for Kyler, see us as worse than 9-8. Pretty much, the entire season rests on Kyler, for me, as the early schedule will give this D time to gel.
