Great points you made. The Cardinals “Devense” (sic) really hasn’t made a single play this year. It’s not like they have 3 pro bowl players on defense or have an all-pro safety or anything. Calais Campbell really has been dragging his feet this year and Antrel Rolle moving to safety has really panned out poorly, hasn’t it? And that defense definitely didn’t confuse Rodgers right off the bat, nor did the defense make a play in OT to win it.

And you’re right, Kurt Warner really sucks under pressure. It’s not like he’s a proven HOF playoff quarterback with that god awful 9-3 playoff record.

Face it – the cardinals are a good team and so are the saints. The saints won 13 games this year, we won 10 out of 15 (That GB game counts for nothing, as shown by last weeks performance). And for that matter, Whiz has been pretty darn good in his playoff games with AZ. This game, in my opinion, will be a lot slower than last week. Look for Beanie to make the difference if the cards win it. Ground and pound the rock, get the ball out of Kurt’s hands, and wrap up on D.

Go Cardinals, I’ll be thinking of your poetic words, Dan, the entire game.

Highsmith simply wasn’t playing well.

You are ignorant for real. First of all, New Orleans have a great team and its going to be a challenge in the superdome but don’t bring stats if you not exactly right because yall are 4th in passing offense houston is 1st! As long as we have fitz, q, breaston, early, we will be pass first but don’t sleep on our running game or we’ll get 156 yards rushing again like we did against green bay. Everybody knows green bay is wayyyy better defensively than new orleans, they were 2nd overall, 1st in run defense and 5th in pass defense and you saw how kurt and da boys torched them. NO defense aint terrible but come on 1st in pass defense yall are 28th LOL!!! Jets are 1st you aren’t smart when it comes to football.

Al-

I don’t think you would be smart to doubt a team who has the best record in the whole conference so i’m not but new orleans didnt look good losing to dallas, ok that’s a good team and their hot but TAMPA BAY??? PLEASE!!!!!!! They suck!!! Arizona and New Orleans should be good but we ready, arizona that is, Are U??

I only wish there were more of you out there to motivate the Cards. It’s work very well in the past. Everyone has picked the Saints, but there isn’t as much Cardinals distain as there was last year. At some point our team is going to have to stand up and just play. We match up very well against the Saints. The noise will be loud, but our team is comfortable in a dome. Wiz had a plan that worked last year for 4 teams that could have easily beat the Saints. The Packers would have beat the Saints this year.

But at the end of the day it’s about execution. Tonight Warner is going to tuck his 7 children into bed with all of the chaos that surrounds that and then he will get a good night’s sleep. Brees will toss and turn and run to the film room at 5 AM thinking he has missed something and he won’t sleep at all tomorrow. If he can still step up and play well, then maybe he is the next Warner. Play the game.

Get’em Dockett!
