Way too Early 2025 Cardinals Record Prediction post schedule release

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I’m going to make this clear.

You guys cannot sit here & celebrate & say we massively upgraded personnel on defense, not losing much on offense, and still have us win 8 or 9 games even WITH another Kyler 2nd half collapse. The blame will go more than just Kyler.

I mean, we can. We won’t know anything until we see them play. If the defense holds the opposition to 14pts a game and Kyler shrivels with bad passes and turnovers and refusal to use his feet it can certainly be laid at his feet. Alternatively if the oline stinks or Conner gets hurt or our receivers don’t improve or the defense does suck, we can point the fingers elsewhere. But we most certainly can end up losing 9+ games and it lay primarily at Kyler’s feet. Saying that it can’t just isn’t reality.

I could buy this with the less-than-stellar defensive personnel in the past. Not this year. 10-12 wins should absolutely be on the table even if Kyler does everything you just said, which I expect him to do. If we still only earn 8 wins even with another Kyler collapse, there were lies about the rest of this current regime & the additions we made.

It certainly shouldn’t happen, but we’ve seen otherwise solid teams derailed by poor quarterbacking before. Wouldn’t be the first time. Kyler would have to play at the bottom of his capabilities. But it could happen.

Look at some of those games last season where the defense played out of their minds and the offense just let them down for the L. I hope and pray it doesn't happen, but I don't have much faith in Kyler by now.

WIN Week 1 at Saints - ugly win in front of a lackluster superdome crowd
WIN Week 2 host Panthers - anti-card panther mojo can't withstand this scenario
WIN Week 3 at 49ers - I think we have their number and they're fading too.
LOSS Week 4 host Seahawks TNF - 3-0 start momentum wasted, everyone upset.
WIN Week 5 host Titans - We right the ship against the hapless Titans
WIN Week 6 at Colts - defense clamps down for the win at Lucas Oil
LOSS Week 7 host Packers - Jordan Love out duals K1 - everyone upset.
Week 8 BYE
WIN Week 9 at Cowboys MNF - Kyler shines in front of his homeboys
LOSS Week 10 at Seahawks - SEA front seven mauls our oline again. Darnold does just enough.
WIN Week 11 host 49ers - Cardinals blowout the 49ers, sending them into a tailspin.
LOSS Week 12 host Jaguars - shocking loss in front of the home crowd
WIN Week 13 at Bucs - Mayfield struggles against our D - Conner/Benson carry this win.
WIN Week 14 host Rams - front seven depth key in this one as Stafford pummeled into submission.
LOSS Week 15 at Texans - Texans fighting for the playoff at home upset Cardinals in a close one.
WIN Week 16 home Falcons - Cardinals rout the Falcons.
LOSS Week 17 at Bengals - f****** Joe Burrow. God I hate him (lol)
LOSS Week 18 at Rams - a must win game to clinch a wildcard and a sickening loss. Prove me wrong K1. For the love of god, prove me wrong.

10-7 but miss the playoffs on tiebreakers.

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

Agree. Murray has won on the road in inclement weather before. We just ran the ball to win.

It’s too hard to predict anything 4 months out, but barring major injuries to critical players, this team has put themselves in position to win a minimum of 11 games, but probably more. In my lifetime, the organization top to bottom, has never been in better hands.

We won 13 games with Arians but you’re very smart also

Great avatar. I had Kwame sign an old Upper Deck card with "The Swami's Cousin" way back in the day when they were doing a seat selection thing at SDS.

RIP.

When I used to work at Fiddlesticks near the training facility, Kwame used to always come in. We would play Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, and NFL Blitz together. It was awesome.

Yes, Arians won 13 in 2015. And yes, that was a very good team. But, they were built with older vets & that success was not sustainable with a 40 year old QB that was always injured. They lost by 40 in the NFC Championship game & were never heard from again. This current version is built to be viable for a much longer period of time.

Ok I guess we’ll see
