Three Cardinals land on midseason All-NFC West team

Nov 7, 2012, 5:18 PM | Updated: 5:23 pm

All 32 teams in the National Football League have played at least half of their schedule, so the lists of midseason awards are plentiful.

Mike Sando, who does a stellar job of covering the NFC West for ESPN.com, has released his midseason NFC West team, and three Arizona Cardinals got the nod.

Defensive end Calais Campbell, inside linebacker Daryl Washington and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald were all named to Sando’s 26-member squad.

Campbell ranks third on the Cardinals’ defense with 38 total tackles, and has also registered 3.5 sacks.

Washington leads the entire division with 75 total tackles and eight sacks. In fact, Terry Bradshaw named Washington his midseason Defensive Player of the Year during Fox NFL Sunday prior to the Cardinals’ game in Green Bay.

And despite much discussion that Fitzgerald has not been featured enough in Arizona’s struggling offense, the nine-year veteran still leads the NFC West with 51 catches and 585 yards.

In all, the San Francisco 49ers had 13 representatives on the team, Seattle had eight and the St. Louis Rams had two.
