We all know defense wins Championships. The figure that stands out to me is the 7.0 sacks per game this has been a huge factor of improvement during the season. Putting pressure on opposing QBS is the way to win more games.
Putting pressure on the QB also allows them to coverup their deficiencies in the secondary. BTW, am I reading that right? He is comparing 12 weeks to just the last 2 weeks? Last 2 weeks Cards played the Giants and the Eagles, both horrible teams with horrible olines. Not trying to be a debbie downer here, just trying to ground people to reality.... Of course any given Sunday, but the Cards beat 2 very beatable teams. Just hope they beat the 49ers, because the Rams will be a very tough must-win game for them...
Yep, 12 weeks of .500 football vs. 2 weeks of 1.000 football. It's just that small statistics sometimes reveal a HOT STREAK before the picture becomes its clearest, like in January 2009. The New York Giants knocked off the Seattle Seahawks on December 6th. That was a legit whole Giants team win, not just a great performance by Defense or Offense. I agree that across the season the NYG are a poor team. Losing S. Barkley was as bad for the Giants 2020 season as the Cardinals losing David Johnson due to a broken wrist at the season's first game vs. the Detroit lions in September 2017.

12/26/2020Temperature in Glendale Arizona 40 Degrees F* Temperature in Lakeland, Florida 38 Degrees F* I'm jealous LOL Temperature in Sydney Australia 66 Degrees F* aussiecardsfan you are blessed! Temperature Nofolk, VA = 26F at 7:00 a.m. on 26 December. Definite hot chocolate w/ marshmellows weather! Happy Holidays, everyone! Go Cardinals! Beat the 49ers today! Current western IL temp is 25F. Up 19F from this time yesterday. Let the wood stove burn out over the night now that we are out of the single digit temps for nights. Now back on main natural gas furnace. Looking forward to this afternoon's game and a Cards Win. Wild shoot out yesterday between Vikes and Saints. Too bad HC Peyton did not let Kamara have that 6th rushing TD. What a performance from the Saints O when they needed it. Caveat; although it was against a depleted and young Vike D.

Time for.......... Devon Kennard to step-up today. With Gardeck out then his opportunity to have more reps and shine is now. If we reach the play-offs then a highly motivated and performing third option off the edge will be a vital ingredient (to go far). Lets hope he comes out onto the field today and shows some real pride and passion...

Which camp are you guys in, assuming a win vs the 49ers today?
1. Hope the Rams lose to Seattle on Sunday, which would lock Seattle in as NFC West Champs, and give us a shot at upsetting the Rams for #2 and a spot in the playoffs?
2. Hope the Rams beat Seattle, evening up the record at the top of the NFC West with us one game behind, and a tiny shot at Seattle losing Week 17 and us beating the Rams for the NFC West Championship ourselves?
Gotta win this game! It makes next week so exciting!

Devon Kennard needs to step up a guy named Devon should have pride right> and most of all passion for the game, When he puts on that #42 jersey then he must come out bursting with sheer determination. - If he wants to be here next season then he now needs to deliver some real performances...

Gotta win this game! It makes next week so exciting! I don't want to take any chances Win today, I am concerned about Chicago getting in the back door based on strength of schedule. They must beat Green Bay next week. CARDINALS have to beat the Rams which we have failed to do in forever.
