that would help, but we need hardy to step up now more than ever. he hasn't been bad but he needs to make more of an impact.

they are fine, nobody expected us to go undefeated anyway, i would rather get the hype over by losing now, leting edwards heal and get ready for the chargers.

this actually isn't that bad, 10 points behind, I am actually kind of impressed so far with our offense and........THE PATRIOTS ARE LOSING!!! :wallbash:

WTF, was our D line discussing post game plans with there offensive line?

this D line is starting to go nuts with stunts, hopefully more agressive in the second half.

watch for the long play on McKelvin, they have been setting our corners up all day.

one can only hope!

exactly, unfortunately when your on the field for a couple 10+ play drives you will see any defense struggle. this game will come down to how much time each offense is on the field. normally the cards are a fast scoring team cuz they pass a lot, but this coach has them slowing the game down with the slants and check downs, its almost like they counted on keeping our offense off the field(now where have we heard of this gameplan before?)

I am not saying that the D doesn't need to step up, I am saying that it is as much of a different game for our defense as it is for theres

man these guys can hit though

finally, if we can keep some kind of a running game going, i think our defense can do well.

McGee might help on a few defensive plays (no doubt) but as far as how long the offense is on the field and how fresh the defense is, Trent edwards makes all the difference.

if we can keep within 7, or if our offensive line suddenly learns how to runblock, we can adjust at halftime. even if we lose though that means that Trent has 2 weeks to rest. Our season isn't over...hopefully.

he is right though, our defense has been great cuz our offense is designed for 7 yard catch and run to set up the eventual long play, our defense has been on the field the whole game.

wow the cardinals are showing the league how great they are at holding and these refs are showing the league how great they are at not sucking!

no way the refs actually let an iffy play slide?

we need a pass rush!!! all they are doing is stretching the field with the passing game...10:1 says they eventually go deep on McKelvin cuz he is a rookie, they are setting him up bigtime.

thats why he is our backup though, its real easy to gameplan for that against a starting quarterback but now that he is a backup, other teams don't worry about him until the stater gets hurt. those long plays should work all day cuz the cardinals did not gameplan for it...at least not that much.

Does anyone else feel like we are being boned by these refs?

Schobel is not overrated!!! He has led this defense in sacks for the past 5 seasons! everyone thought that because we got stroud schobel would automatically get 16 sacks this year. it has actually worked the opposite so far...schobel has been double teamed a lot with the left tackle and the running back leaving stroud to cause havoc in the center. besides the fact that most of the time he has been playing run defense, staying in his gap and letting mitchel and poz beat the crap out of the other teams run game. i am pretty positive they couldn't run the perimeter of the defense yesterday, it was all up the middle, why because schobel forced them back inside.
