Cardinals ranked 25th in early power rankings

The Arizona Cardinals finished the 2011 season with an 8-8 record. However, that did not stop Evan Silva of Pro Football Talk, in his preseason power rankings, from putting the Cardinals 25th. There are only 32 teams in the NFL. Silva notes that while the Cardinals are fairly strong at wide receiver and have playmakers […]

Kevin Kolb faces more pressure than anyone in NFL

This may be it for Kevin Kolb as a starting quarterback in the NFL. Acquired by the Arizona Cardinals before last season to be the team’s long-term answer, Kolb played in just nine games — finishing eight — and was very underwhelming when on the field. And whether Kolb is under pressure to stay healthy, […]

For all intents and purposes the offseason is over, as training camp is just around the corner with the regular season soon to follow. So, if there was ever a time to look back and grade how each team did, this is it, and it just so happens, Matt Williamson of ESPN.com did just that. […]

Tale of the tape: NFL analyst chooses Skelton over Kolb

The Arizona Cardinals QB battle has not even really begun yet, but that has not stopped people from weighing in with their thoughts. You can count NFL.com’s Bucky Brooks among those with an opinion, though his may be worth a little more than some, since he broke down the film before coming to a conclusion. […]

Football and the Fourth of July

The Fourth of July is upon us. This time of year fills me with an uneasiness that’s hard to describe. I love this country and enjoy the festivities of the Fourth like all true Americans, but while fire fills the night skies over our country and gunpowder drifts across our land, my heart begins to […]

Fitzgerald confident in receiving corps

Arizona Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald is more than happy to boast their receiving corps going into training camp. Fitzgerald faced a difficult season last year of double coverages due to a lack of a strong number two receiver, and he still managed 1,411 yards and eight touchdowns. “I’m really excited about our receiving corps,” Fitzgerald […]

Cardinals rookie Lindley wants to take advantage of QB competition

Lost in the drama of the Kevin Kolb/John Skelton QB competition is sixth-round pick Ryan Lindley. No, Lindley is not in the competition, and chances are he won’t throw a single meaningful pass for the Cardinals this season. However, the former San Diego State Aztec told Arizona Sports 620’s Doug and Wolf watching the battle […]

And using that formula, there was a couple of Phoenix athletes who figured into the list: pro golfer and former ASU Sun Devil Phil Mickelson (who ranked 7th on the list) […]

Cardinals should celebrate passionate fans

If there’s one thing the Kevin Kolb/John Skelton QB controversy has taught us, it’s that Arizona Cardinals fans are a fickle bunch. And, as someone who grew up a Cardinals fan and suffered the annual abuse that came with the jerseys and hats, it’s much better to be “fickle” than “non-existent”. When news came out […]

Unheralded Carter Cardinals’ next star?

If you asked people which young player was going to breakout and become a star for the Arizona Cardinals, the names that would come up would be Patrick Peterson, Michael Floyd and Daryl Washington, among others.

Daryl Washington confident after off-season workouts

Rookie-only minicamp, OTAs and the two-a-day-practice minicamp are all officially over for the Arizona Cardinals. While most of the focus for the Cardinals this off-season has been on the quarterback battle between Kevin Kolb and John Skelton, third-year linebacker Daryl Washington knows just how crucial it was for the defense to get its first full […]

Is the pressure on Beanie Wells?

Beanie Wells had a breakout season in 2011 for the Arizona Cardinals. The former first-round pick out of Ohio State ran for a career-high 1,047 yards on 245 carries in 14 games. He did a lot to dispel to the label that he couldn’t play through pain, too, often excelling despite being bothered by a […]

Kevin Kolb deserves a second chance

I have a question for Cardinals fans: What did Kevin Kolb do deserve getting booed Wednesday night? We’re not talking about a game, and we’re not even really talking about a practice. We’re talking about a minicamp workout at Fan Fest! Kolb probably thought he was back at Lincoln Financial Field instead of University of […]

It paid off. Kelemete became the […]
