AT WHAT COST?

- - - - - Although punting on the 2023 season, the Cardinals managed a full game without a punt and defeated the Eagles in Philadelphia to extend their all-time series lead to 61-58-5. In the process, the Cardinals dropped out of the number two slot in the upcoming draft, awarded the 49ers home-field advantage, and gave the Cowboys the inside track for the NFC East and at least one home game in the playoffs. While I'm sure their fan bases are rejoicing heartily at their good fortune, it is only fair that they trade us their top receivers in exchange for a sack of footballs.
- - - - - Admittedly, I was actively cheering for the Cardinals Sunday afternoon, and will be doing so again as we try to eliminate the Seahawks this Sunday. But of course, we understand the risks associated with such a result. The Cardinals could drop to the 7th pick and make the suffering we endured this year less justified. At least, we know Kyler Murray still has an All-Pro talent tucked away in his frame. Also, we know Dortch has a place on this roster. Otherwise, we still have many holes to fill on defense, and may have yet another at offensive tackle after DJ Humprhies' ACL injury.

NEXT WEEK, SEATTLE SEAHAWKS: The Seahawks need to win to have a shot at the playoffs. They also need Green Bay to lose, a game that kicks off at the same hour. After many years of leading the all-time series against Seattle, the Cardinals now trail by four games. Here's hoping we shave one of those off. My prediction, Cards win, 27-24.

"The Cardinals Are Charging" was written for both the St. Louis Baseball and Football Cardinals on June 29, 1960. Although the baseball team stopped using the march several years later, the fight song can still be heard at all home football games for the now Arizona Cardinals. The music and words were composed by songwriters Irving Bibo (1889-1962) and Larry Kent. Originally, the lyrics had "all St. Louis" in place of "Arizona" (Line 7), and "St. Louis" instead of "Arizona" (Line 8). Download from the following versions: Real Audio, and MIDI.
