With sole possession of the top record in the NFC, the Arizona Cardinals are getting well-deserved attention from the national media.
ESPN NFL analyst Mark Schlereth told Bickley and Marotta on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Friday he enjoys watching the Cardinals play.
“I think Bruce Arians would be the first to tell you, ‘Hey, we’re not the most talented team all the time,’ but I guarantee you one thing: They’re not going to back down from anybody,” Schlereth said.
“It’s like an Old West deal. I just love watching them play. There’s something that’s special that you can’t put your finger on.”
Schlereth called the 6-1 team’s play “not pretty, but it’s pretty aggressive.” The Cardinals rank third in the NFL in rushing yards allowed per game and fifth in points allowed per contest.
