COME ON CARDINALS DO SOMETHING

WOWWWW

I'M THE BIGGEST CARDINALS FAN IN THE WORLD TONIGHT

Come on Arizona!!

Tua LMAO

He's protecting Darnold.

Also, flexing Panthers/Saints won't make sense unless the Saints beat the Eagles. If the Eagles win, then a Bucs loss in Week 18 would mean the Panthers have nothing to play for in the night game as win or lose they would hold the tiebreaker over the Saints (who need to win out). And Falcons are eliminated. NFL won't risk the Week 18 SNF being meaningless so Panthers and Bucs will play their games simultaneously.

You suggested the Saints/Philly or Lions/Chicago on SNF over our game, which makes no sense. That is what I mean by saying I don't know what your deal is, because neither of those games make any kind of sense to put on SNF above us. Hurts might not even play next week and the Saints are 3rd in the division and there is no scenario where they leapfrog to #1 next week because the Bucs/Panthers play each other. Its fine if you don't think our game is going on SNF. But they are absolutely in the discussion for that spot. DET/CHI and NO/Philly is not.

Are you intentionally ignoring the obvious facts of the situation? Panthers/Bucs is clearly a more important game than Bears/Lions. Not sure what your deal is.

What? Plenty of players get hurt for one or two seasons. Cooper Kupp, for example.

What? There is no way and no reason for the NFL to flex Lions/Bears to prime time.

Packers/Vikings. Packers are still in contention if they win tomorrow vs Dolphins, but they still need help. Vikings still have a chance at the #1 seed, so there's that. Steelers/Ravens. Great rivalry and Steelers are still in playoff contention, also could be the game Lamar Jackson finally returns. Dolphins/Patriots. This game is more important if the Dolphins lose tomorrow, less important if they win. If the Dolphins lose, then a playoff spot could be on the line between the two teams. I think if the Bucs lose tomorrow, then Panthers/Bucs is a lock for the reasoning in the the OP - potentially Brady's last game. But if they win then it will be interesting to see the direction the NFL goes.

I think he'll be fine. Like someone said, these aren't soft tissue injuries. A broken foot and a broken wrist could happen to anyone. Just unfortunate he's suffered these injuries two years in a row.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/12/20/no-decision-yet-on-week-17-sunday-night-football-game/ Currently the SNF game is Chargers/Rams, which won't stick. No matter the result of tomorrows game, Bucs/Panthers will have huge implications. BUT, and I know this is unlikely but you never know... if the Bucs lose to the Cardinals, then they face an elimination game vs the Panthers. They are done if they lose. And no way Brady plays a meaningless game in Week 18. And who knows what his plans are? It isn't a stretch to think that it could very well be his final NFL game ever and the NFL knows this. So I think if the Bucs lose tomorrow this make the game a lock to be flexed to SNF. A Sunday Night Panthers game in late December with the division hanging in the balance would make me a very happy man.

Kyle Pitts is good, offensive scheme is just terrible plus very bad QB TJ Hockenson went in the 1st in 2019

The TOUGH Panthers defense

Getting a HC job is hard and in the grand scheme of things, pretty damn rare when you think about it. Sure, a guy like Sean Payton can afford to turn down an opening because he's established. But 90% of candidates can't afford to do that. I wouldn't concern myself over who the Panthers could attract.

Bro the idea of Wilks being the long term HC was always laughable. Team looks like trash every single time they play a competent defense

THE CULTURE

Nah, bro. THE CULTURE.

THE CULTURE

KEEP WILKS HE BROUGHT THE CULTURE BACK

Ravens WRs suck.

Mind-boggling play-calling.
