Cards might be dangerous if they can keep running the ball effectively.

 

[JZilla]

That Vin Diesel commercial was AWESOME."Too Hardcore For Theaters"!!! Nice. That's why we went straight to DVD, people, we are too hardcore for the cinema.....

Better watch that one on the ipod

 

[CrossEyed]

Whistle seemed a little early on that run.

 

[massraider]

If a CB had done what Edge just did to that defender, the flag would have flied.

Not impressed with this crew of refs.

Except that the movie WAS in theaters, and is in no way, shape, or form a straight to DVD release.That was an advertisement for the unrated version, featuring extra stuff that was removed from the theatrical version.Seriously, hundreds of movies do this. Where have you been the last 10 years that it's new to you?

Wondering if I was the only one who picked up on that. Yep weak.

The words donkey and punch keep coming into my mind.

Anyone else having a lot of trouble refreshing because of whatever ad is "optimized-by.rubicon.com"? It's causing infinite delays every time I refresh or click any links on any fbg page.

 

[DropKick]

C'mon Atlanta. I'd like to see some drama.

Ditto.

Where was Norwood play calls the 1st 3Qs ?

 

[Saints-Man]

I don't agree with going for it there, but it worked out for Atlanta.

 

[GroveDiesel]

I just will never understand why Norwood doesn't get more touches. I really won't. So ironic that Turner gets tons of touches in that offense after never getting a chance by LT2. And Norwood is stuck behind Turner now.

 

[massraider]

Where was Norwood play calls the 1st 3Qs ?

I wonder if he can't get on the field because of his blocking liabilities. I've seen him attempt two blocks in the 2nd half, and both were pathetic.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Down 2 TDs. Hard not to.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Prevent defense....when will anyone ever learn.

 

[southeastjerome]

Colllinsworth just said 2 mins ago that it was early to go for it on 4th, now he says he doesn't understand why they are huddling up and they need to hurry.

 

[Saints-Man]

Arizona's defense did not look ready on that TD play.

 

[brutha]

Collinsworth not exactly having his best game.

 

[CrossEyed]

OK, please stop with the "Matty Ice" already.

 

[FreeBaGeL]

Lol, looks like older brother is maybe still a little bitter himself. Not much of a celebration there, a little golf clap.

 

[Saints-Man]

With 7 minutes left, I thought they had enough time to punt and hold them. The way it worked out, it is just another data item why Smith is the HC and I am watching the game at home on my couch.

 

[GroveDiesel]

OK, please stop with the "Matty Ice" already.

In other news, Roddy White is really good. Hugely underated by the average fan/media still.

 

[DropKick]

Too early for on-side kick?

 

[Saints-Man]

OK, please stop with the "Matty Ice" already.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Already tired of hearing it and I dont think it sounds cool in general.For minute I thought Ryan took off his pads and got in the crowd.

 

[massraider]

Love throwing it on first down. you are winning, keep your knee on their neck.

I agree.

Mrs. Diesel?

 

[Saints-Man]

Wow....could be the ball game right there.

Use Firefox with Adblock Plus and NoScript and you won't be bothered by that.

That was the lesson that I felt Holmgren never learned and it showed when his team was down.

Not sure a grown man should be called Matty.

 

[Saints-Man]

Eeeeek!!!

 

[brutha]

This describes 99.9% of all nicknames.AZ going to end the game on this drive.

 

[CrossEyed]

Awful call.

 

[Saints-Man]

Wow...that is the ball game.

 

[CrossEyed]

Game.

 

[JZilla]

Awful call.

Almost JauronesqueLucky the LBs fell asleep on third and long. Game ovah.

 

[FreeBaGeL]

Woah, way to go linebackers. Make sure you take away the 4 yard dump-off on 3rd and 16.

 

[massraider]

There isn't an Atlanta Falcon that Falcons fans hate more than Brooking. They hate him, and have for years.

Now I know why.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Falcons secondary has really made some crucial mistakes today.

 

[CrossEyed]

Congrats, Cards fans.

 

[mad sweeney]

How special is it for AZ fans?! The ones that needed at least two extensions to sell enough tix to lift the blackout?

 

[Saints-Man]

Congrats to the Cards on the win and advancing in the playoffs.

Congrats to a good season for the Falcons. The future looks bright for them.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Good for the Cardinals and their fans.

If they're lucky, they'll play the Panthers. No way do they have a chance against the Giants in the cold. But they may have a shot against the Panthers.

I wonder if the Cards have been holding Edge out of games just to keep him fresh for the playoffs? He's certainly looked good the last 2 weeks.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

OK, please stop with the "Matty Ice" already.

 

[Shlon]

Turn the ball over and give up big plays, we deserved to lose. Keith Brooking needs to be cut immediately, he's sucked all season.

 

[CrossEyed]

OK, please stop with the "Matty Ice" already.

At least we're safe from that again until September.

I was thinking this as well, but, nah. Knowing them they'll get a Super 8 in Greenville after Friday night redeye.
