Peter King's NFC Forecast

Cardinals at Panthers

Last time: the Cards blew a 17-3 third-quarter lead in Charlotte, and a 65-yard Jake Delhomme strike to Steve Smith clinched the Panthers' 27-23 win.

This time Arizona lost all five of its East Coast games, and only the defeat at Carolina was close. Waht the Cards bring now is "a chip on our shoulder," says defensive tackle Darnell Dockett. "We're supposed to be the worst playoff team, we shouldn't even show up." Can hard feelings soften the one-two rushing punch of DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart? Maybe for a series or two, but not for four quarters; the Panthers had an NFL-best 30 TDs on the ground. And if Arizona's D pays too much attention to the run, Delhome will send Smith deep, with little or no safety help.

Panthers 26, Cardinals 17

dumbass doesn't even know how to spell Delhomme. :rolleyes:

Well, he did spell it right on the first try. Funny how he fail on the second try after getting the first one right. :rofl:

But I agree if the Cards defense focus too much on trying to stop the run, our WRs are going to kill them. That what make our offense great: the WRs & RBs. We haven't got a good offense like that in a long, long time.

They have to talk to fill space but none of that sh*t matters one bit, the Cards' record on the East coast, the fact the Cats won the last game, nothing, none of it. All that matters is how they play on Saturday. Look at all the people who thought that the Fla-OK game would be some shootout because they both have potent offenses. I would hardly call that game a shootout. A lot of times it is the belittled/ignored aspects of a team that end up being the difference in a positive way. Look at the Cards' win over the Falcons. People denigrated their D and run game and those phases stepped up big.

I am with Fireball, the past doesn't mean squat. If we don't play our best we will be finishing our season this Saturday. I just hope that Trgo has dialed up a good gameplan after having 2 weeks to do so. I don't want to hear anymore of this "they came out and surprised us" crap like we heard the first time. Every other team they have played on the east coast have buried them including Philly and the Giants who will be our opponent if we win. We need to come out fast and hungry and play aggressive from the beginning rather than wait to get behind and then try and turn it on.

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
