The first annual Arizona Cardinals march to the Super Bowl thread

The Game Room
1

The Arizona Cardinals are going to the playoffs and we are going to win the NFC West.

Kurt Warner who has won a Super Bowl, will take the Cards to a Super Bowl!

2

To be fair, myself and 10 of my friends could win the NFC west.

That said, congrats Cardinals fans, the Cards are fun to watch and it’ll be good to have them in the playoffs.

I don’t even know how to do the happy dance. We won, we won! The Arizona Cardinals are going to the playoffs. We did it. This is the team I’ve liked since I was a kid. I’m almost 40 now. But, we won!

Congrats to you and your Cards.

As an objective Canadian NFL fan, it’s hard not to like them as a team.

But my two cents is - they really need to tighten up the pass defence to have a shot at it. It’ll be a tough road.

From here:

Congratulations, dalej – the Cardinals put up a brand of football that’s enjoyable to watch. The road to the Super Bowl leads through Giants Stadium this year, so I don’t see your boys making it to the dance. But if they make it the first couple of rounds, then I’ll be looking forward to a hell of an NFC Championship game.

Good thread title. I’ve never seen one like that before.

Anyway, it’s good to see the Cardinals doing well for a change, but as long as they have an owner with the last name of Bidwill I could never root for them under any circumstances, not that I would anyway.

While I don’t agree with your thesis, good luck to you (long suffering) Cardinals fans!

Good luck to the Cardinals. It’s about time for some fresh blood. Will be cheering for the Cardinals all the way to the NFC Championship game. Then, well sorry, time for Big Blue to take over.

9

I think this is a good day to bump this thread.

10

Big Blue ain’t gonna be there! Go Cards!

11

I am shocked at how well they’re playing defensively.

12

The way they played in Foxborough a few weeks ago, I would never have thought they’d get it together for the playoffs. Well done, Birds, and uber props to Ken Whisenhunt.

Trivia: The Cardinals franchise had won exactly 2 postseason games in its entire previous 88 years. They’ve now doubled that in the last 2 weeks, and their next game is at home.

I’m a believer now.

13

Screw the Owners last name… We are talking a Whiz and Grimm team how can you not root for them to make the super bowl? I can understand that if your Steelers are there, Come on… is Whiz and Grimm.

14

Whizz and Grimm? For those of us who are a little slow (meaning me) who/what are they?

15

I applaud your verbage, sir.

16

Ken Whisenhunt and Russ Grimm, the Cardinals’ head coach and assistant head coach/o-line coach, respectively. Both are former Steeler assistants.

17

Congrats to Dale on a day I never thought I’d see. However, a question: you liked them as a kid when they were the St. Louis Cardinals? Did you luck out when they moved to Arizona?

18

While I take no joy in the first sentence, I now completely agree with the second. Got some room for a bandwagonner?

Being a Ravens fan, I feel like the Cards are the one team that can destroy the Ravens of the three remaining teams. The Ravens have shown time and time again that they can not stop a veteran pocket passer. The teams that are hard headed and try to run on them always run into trouble. The Cards seem to have no trouble on 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th down and that spells trouble for the Ravens.

I can’t speak for the Eagles or Steelers fans, but the Cards scare me the most!

I’m just sad I can’t get tickets to the game this Sunday. :frowning: My dad is a huge Eagles fan, and we watched three games when they used to play in Tempe.
