the toughest schedule in the league... On paper at the start of the season but it didn't turn out that way. Every one of the teams they played turned out to have a worse season than expected. Yet Arizona is having a better than expected season. |

I'm all for a new SB winner for a change. Been there, done that gets old after a while. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | The entertaining thing about the cardinals is that they can lose in a blow out or win in a blowout. You never know. And if they're winning in a blowout (like they were against eagles) sometimes they do their best to make it close again. But win or lose it's entertaining. Are they a great team, heck no. They had 7 loses this year. Every one of them to a team that's since been eliminated. Are they lucky, sure sometimes. You have to be to get this far. Are they capable of laying the biggest superbowl egg in history, oh yeah. Their biggest credit is that they have won the games they had to win (and no more). They're 14-4 at home in the last 2 years. They went undefeated in their division. They beat three good playoff teams. Blow outs to the Jets, Vikes and Pats didn't hurt them at all because they just put it behind them and moved on. They are a very young team (except Warner), and probably never expected to be here. Steelers are a great team, no doubt. cards just need to pad up, take the field and see what happens. They are capable of winning the game. That doesn't mean they will. |

I am rooting for them to kick Steeler butt! |

It was generally thought that Arizona would be a chance for one of the few "sure wins" for the Lions this year. |
