Conference Standings, #1 by at least 2 games

1. Carolina 9-0

2. Vikings 6-2

3. Arizona 6-2

*Everyone else has 3+ losses

Who would've imagined those three teams at the beginning of the season?? If the Seahawks can take care of the Cardinals, and depending on the Vikings outcome, we could have a 3 game lead on the 1st seed.  That's huge.  Even a 2 game lead is substantial a game past the halfway point.  Awesome sauce.

Vikings will probably win and I honestly still hope the Cardinals win. Would rather they take control of that division than have another sneaky Seattle team in the playoffs where the refs and luck of the Irish will be on their side. Cardinals have a tough schedule still so I don't think they stay with 2 losses or 3 if they win today.

I agree Cardinals needs get this W and take all the hope out of Seattle. Our offense matches up better against them.

Cardinals offense could give us trouble but when Palmer is pressured he's nowhere near as good and with CJ back I wouldn't be too worried about that. They're the same offense that we dominated last year in the playoffs except for Palmer (which granted, is a HUGE upgrade) so I agree that we should be less worried about the Cardinals than Seaturkeys. I want the Cards to win tonight but if it's a great game then I'll be happy enough with either outcome. A tie would be beautiful.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
