Peyton Manning to the Cardinals? One NFL analyst thinks it’s possible

Are the Arizona Cardinals a QB away from being a contender? With the way the defense played late in the year and the talent at receiver and running back, it’s hard to argue against the idea. With that in mind, along with questions about whether or not Kevin Kolb or John Skelton will ever develop […]

Levi Brown’s future is up in air

Arizona Cardinals offensive tackle Levi Brown may have played well over the second half of the 2011 season, but inconsistency in the first four-and-a-half years of his career have left many disappointed with his play. Brown is due a pay increase from his recent $5 million to $8.3 million, but the team will likely release […]

Cardinals’ Horton to interview with Rams

Over the years of Ken Whisenhunt’s tenure as head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, there has been a lot of turnover with his coordinators. This year, Ray Horton became Whisenhunt’s third defensive coordinator in his five years at the helm. And there’s at least a possibility that Whisenhunt will need to search for another d-coordinator […]

The Arizona Cardinals aren’t headed to the playoffs despite going 7-2 over their last nine games, but today, five players received “honors” from NFC West blogger Mike Sando of ESPN.

Were the Cardinals guilty of ‘extra stuff’?

Many thought the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks would just play nice in their season finale last Sunday at University of Phoenix Stadium. After all, both teams had been eliminated from playoff contention and were playing mostly for pride…and second place in the NFC West, for whatever that’s worth. But credit goes to both teams, […]

Larry Fitzgerald one of 2011’s top offensive players

If you’re anything like us, chances are you never get tired of hearing about Larry Fitzgerald’s greatness. Easily the Cardinals’ best player, the Pro Bowler just finished up an 80 catch, 1,411 yard and eight touchdown season, and his impact truly goes beyond just the stats.

Levi Brown steps up over second half of season

Levi Brown has been a proverbial punching bag for fans since being drafted No. 5 overall in the 2007 NFL Draft. Ken Whisenhunt’s first pick as a head coach, Brown has been mediocre — at best — as both a right and left tackle. The 27-year-old has been a mainstay on the line for the […]

Beanie Wells turns in career season for Cardinals

Beanie Wells had a career year in 2011. A third-year pro, Wells rushed for 1,047 yards and 10 touchdowns – both career highs – and silenced many critics who thought he could not play through pain or, really, be an effective runner. If it was a make or break year for the former Ohio State […]

Another year of Cardinals football in the books

Can you believe it? The Arizona Cardinals just finished up their 24th season of football in the Valley of the Sun. It wasn’t the best year in Cardinals’ history and it certainly wasn’t the worst, either. After a dismal 1-6 start, the Cardinals rallied to go 7-2 over their last nine games, the 2nd-best record […]

Cardinals will have a battle for starting QB job

For Kevin Kolb, the 2011 season will be one to pretty much throw away. Traded to Arizona shortly before the games began, the QB had little time to learn the playbook before being asked to lead the team, and when the games started he battled ineffectiveness along with injuries. He played in just nine games […]

Patrick Peterson just misses punt return history

GLENDALE — There was some doubt whether rookie punt returning sensation Patrick Peterson would even be able to play for the Arizona Cardinals in their season finale against Seattle on Sunday. Peterson suffered a strained Achilles tendon last week in a loss to Cincinnati and was slowed for much of the week in practice. Not […]

Larry Fitzgerald carries Cardinals to win in season finale

Larry Fitzgerald reached out with his right arm, grabbed the football and fell to the ground. The reception, which was good for 12 yards, was Fitzgerald’s last of the season, his ninth of the day and, arguably, one of the coolest catches you’ll ever see. Not that his second one-handed grab of the day impressed […]

Cardinals’ Ray Horton assesses defense

It’s no secret that the Arizona Cardinals’ defense got off to a rocky start in 2011 — struggling to adapt to the complicated new scheme implemented by first-year defensive coordinator Ray Horton.
