Just be ready for the excuses when we beat them. 

It was cold. It was too dark. Palmers finger. The field was real grass. Arians lost his lucky Kangol. SCP crop dusted us. 

Who knows what they'll blame it on. 

Depending on what I eat at the tailgate, a crop dusting from me could be a legit excuse used by the Cards if they lose.

Well there's the start..  Keep it going.  Hijack the thread 

NFL wants a black QB to win because of MLK day.

Gordell is going to give the Pats the Super Bowl to make up for deflategate, and the Pats can't beat the Cardinals.

CJ2K was rusty.

If we can pressure Carson like we pressured Wilson in the first half we got this.  It's all about pressure and getting him off his spot. We don't do that we are in for a long day at the office.

Like you know what a long day at the office looks like. Lol

I have plenty of friends that complain about long days at the office

Its simple! We give them the run game. Minimal damage and they will follow the path of least resistance. Every D package we show will be to defend the pass. Luke and Davis are quick on there reads. 

I think the most dangerous play the Cards can throw at us will be short passes to Johnson if we can not close the pocket.

If the Panthers get some knock downs and sacks on Palmer early he may not last the entire game.

On the other hand...  if Palmer gets comfortable in the pocket, the Panthers are in for a long day.

Finnegan will not be on Fitzgerald. You play Fitzgerald like a TE at this point in his career. Think Jimmy Graham. LBs will take care of Fitzgerald with an occasional safety over the top if Fitzgerald gets deep enough, and he usually does not.

Norman cancels out whoever lines up on his side of the field.

Factor in the double teams needed on Star and KK. Max pro; 6 blockers.

One of the LBs cancels out David Johnson.

The LB who does not have Fitzgerald or David Johnson blitzes Palmer.

That leaves McClain on the final WR.

The key is both safeties can play deep all game and roam.

Mix in a safety blitz with Tre Boston when the Cards go with only 2 WRs.

It will be a very long day for Palmer.

Only person should be on Fitz is Norman

I feel like Arizona is really good at setting up the big play. 6 yard passes. Quick, short passes and then they hit you with the big play. I've seen it time and time again.

As a cardinals fan I love this matchup. i think it will be huge for us. for the panthers they must and have to get pressure with there Front 4.

David Johnson may be the bigger threat tho. he is very sneaky out of the backfield

[Chaos]

We'll be ready

[g5jamz]

Rotate cover LB to help on Fitz.  Luke and TD will need to spy David Johnson somewhat, so I'll think you'll see a scheme where they mask who has who.  McDermott will just need to have a halftime scheme change because the Cards WILL adjust when they figure it out.  Ariens is a very good coach. 

We just cannot risk too many safety blitzes against these guys.  Floyd will have to be covered by Norman with help over the top.  Brown might present big problems for us if Palmer gets time.  Fitz, I think, in our scheme may not do as well as everyone thinks.  At least I hope so.  Key is pressure on Palmer early and often.
