17 Years In The Making
If the Cardinals beat the Dolphins this Sunday they will start the 2008 season with a 2-0 record – something that they haven’t done in seventeen years.
2008 Season Preview: Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals are one of those teams like the Lions and Bengals: show me, don’t tell me. We saw a lot of things to like in 2007, particularly on defense. But we also saw a lot of work still to be done, and this offseason did little to immediately improve the team.
Grading The Deal: Fitzgerald Stays In Arizona
In addition to catching nearly everything Arizona quarterbacks throw his way, Larry Fitzgerald opens up space for Anquan Boldin on the other side.
2007 Season Preview: Arizona Cardinals
QB Matt Leinart comes off a promising rookie campaign and has assumed more leadership on a team in desperate need of a focal point. His rookie numbers compare favorably to Peyton Manning and Troy Aikman, and I fully expect Leinart to quickly emerge as one of the top QBs in the game.
2007 Draft Review: Arizona Cardinals
Arizona reached for need with their 1st pick and chose guys with declining stock with their other 4 picks. If 5th overall pick Levi Brown isn't starting right away this grade drops to F.
The Cardinals Wide Receiver Taste Test
Boxers or briefs? Ginger or Mary Anne? Boldin or Fitzgerald? For fantasy football fans, decisions do not get much harder than this one. Which Pro Bowl Arizona Cardinals receiver should be taken first, Anquan Boldin or Larry Fitzgerald?
2006 NFL Team Preview: Arizona Cardinals
The Cards have the best offensive skill position (QB/RB/WR) package in the NFL. WRs Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Bolden are each proven capable of 100+ catches, 1000+ yards, and 20+ combined TDs. QB Kurt Warner isn’t his old MVP self from a few years back, but he’s still got a very good arm and hits his receivers in perfect stride. New RB Edgerrin James gives the Cards a big-time threat running the ball, something they have lacked for years.
Expectations Higher For Cardinals
The new stadium alone would have increased season attendance, but when Arizona signed former Colt running back Edgerrin James on March 12, and had what many experts consider the top amateur draft this past offseason, the good news has rolled on for the Cardinals.
Post-Draft Analysis: A Hollywood Hope In The Valley Of The Sun
Arizona’s first day was outstanding and landing a guy like Leinart to be the face of the franchise will be huge. The Cardinals tailed off a little in the later rounds and didn’t stay true to the course of filling their holes. No safety at all?
NFL Draft Dissection 2006 – Arizona Cardinals
Signing Edgerrin James alternately will give the front office more flexibility in who they can select allowing them to go after “their guy” instead of the most high-profile guy. Arizona’s offensive line still needs a lot of work to get it up to par with the rest of the offense. There are a couple decent pieces there but it doesn’t help that they turn out so injury prone, so the Cardinals at least need a little more depth on the O-line.
