I will not beat a dead horse regarding the miscues and bad plays from Sunday. I just wante to say that everything the media says about our team / organziation might just have some truth to it; no one likes to hear that their child is ugly, even if it is true. Kurt plays good in spurts, the defense has stepped up but I think might have started believing the press clippings about being the No.1 run defense; mental break downs across the board. We will never get the respect we feel we derserve due to games being played like this. Quarterback play is not bad for us, not at all but definately not like the elite teams qb’s. Breeze, Peyton and other first place team quarterbacks are getting it done weekend and week out. I know Kurt is a special player and has done a lot for this team / organization but this is and always will be a “what have you done for me lately” kind of sport. All those who were rewarded this year with better contracts don’t seem to be perfoming at a very high level every game. Your star players are suppose to step up during critical moments during each game not every other game that is played.

here’s a thought, maybe it’s time for a change in command. I’ve been a card fan since they were in st louis and it broke my heart when they left. thats business. i love kurt i do but i had the priivledge of watching him alot in st louis too. so when i say maybe its time for him to allow matt to grow into his own is painful at best. but we did spend a number 1 draft pick on the kid 2 yrs ago and it’s time for him the step out of the shadows. yes he will make mistakes but he also will make big plays. i was very impressed with his preseason play. if it wasnt for warner taking them to the superbowl we might have seen a change at the beginning of the season. and for beanie, well , they need to end this switch-a-roe. maybe someone can tell me, which running back havent fumbled. i truely believe if you give him 20 runs a gm at least, it changes everything….well just a thought, what u all think?

if the cards off. have a bad game against da bears they should really think about making a change either at qb or whiz need to give up playcalling. (gandy needs to be replaced)

Mr.Urban I just want to know why is the team not prepared to play at home. What is up with the losing at home?

William –

Going into tonight’s game, the Cards had gone from first to ninth in the NFL in rushing defense.

Darren-
Did we drop any spots in our rush-defense rank? If so, to what? Thanks.

In regard to what Ottis said, I think that our team is at a serious disadvantage any time that San Francisco plays before us. How hard is it to imagine that some players see that San Fran loses before going up against what appeared to be a pushover, and phoned it in?

—it was hard to watch,they talk about after big win against ny,maybe not fired up for this one,maybe take it for granted.my opinion,we do not throw deep balls,no fitz jump balls,no no huddle,if we can’t cover receivers against teams like the panthers,and they had players who did not even make the trip,we got issues.we were out coached ,out played,our defense was in wrong position about every play,and when we were in position we would not have been able to tackle if it was flag football.i work my ass off 56 hours a week just to keep my job,if i performed like this,i would be looking for other work,over 40 years diehard fan,i put myself against any other fan to swap stories about the cards,these guys want more money,but give me something in return.offensive is tenitive,you can’t win in this league that way,at least if we are going to tank a game let’s try going down the field.as far as i am concerned we were outcoached this game,and we are not play calling the same.if all you say is well,they were cover 2,all over fitz,then let’s abandon the things that got us to last year.throw the ball downfield,open it up,trick plays.whatever,2nd and 20 .throw 3 yard pass,same on 3rd and long,just doesn’t make any sense.i am pissed off about this effort,makes me sick to see this.if you think every time you play a game like you will rebound,you are going to get your feelings hurt,because unless you have not seem,oak over philly,cincy over pitt,if you don’t come to play ,you will lose,the clock keeps on running,it doesn’t care who’s winning.look at this easy next few weeks and come playoff time the only thing different when it comes to watching playoff football is you will be watching it in a more expensive house than me,i’ll probably be more disappointed.

I just listened to this weeks edition of, “In the Red Zone”, and I’ve never heard a coach more relaxed and confident after taking a bludgeoning than Coach Whiz did in that interview. I’m hoping he knows something that we don’t (and I mean a lot more). Actually, I say that every time I listen to Whiz conduct an interview the morning after a loss, but the roller coaster never stops and the same embarrassing efforts keep showing up again.

It’s hard to invest in a product if you have no guarantee it’s going to work, and I’m sure Michael Bidwell reminded him of that today.

I actually wish San Francisco would have won yesterday to help turn up the pressure on the coaching staff and players to perform better knowing that their divisional lead would evaporate if the Cards lost and 49ers won. I wonder if the Cards would have played with more of a sense of urgency had the Colts/Niners game (outcome) had not been played (determined) until Monday night.
