Hey Cardinals- didn't anyone tell you you're supposed to suck?



What is going on in Arizona? Sure, it's May, and you can't judge a draft class until 3 years and yada yada yada....but is it possible that the Cardinals might be.....good this year? Neigh- division crown winners???

Their draft was pretty bananas, b-a-n-a-n-a-s. I will admit to knowing nothing about the guys they drafted after round 3, but their first 3 picks seem like friggen blockbusters to me. Rodgers-Cromartie should be pretty good, and Calais Campbell is a total beast (what is it with our division rivals drafting excellent pass rushers? Stop it!). He only fell to the second round because he struggled in his senior year, but don't be fooled- we now have 6 games a year where we'll be facing a very good pass rush.

Then you've got Doucet. WTF was he doing in the 3rd round?? The last team on earth that needs another super talented WR steal is the Cardinals. My only solace here is that WRs almost always suck in their rookie years, but when you've got Boldin and Fitz, it's alot easier to not suck during your rookie season.

Add this to the Rams getting a stud pass-rusher, and you've got yourself a shytefest to work through. I think the whole "NFC West is the most competitive division everrr!!11!" talk was a year early. Now watch this post become irrelevant in 3 months. Howevuh, let the record show that I'm legitimately concerned about the perinnial crapfest Cardinals actually winning this division.

Its the cards. One post season win in what?, 50 years or something. Yeah they look improved but they are the cards, they dont have a running game(who needs one says New England) and they dont have a qb, or one that can stay healthy and on the field for more than 2 games at a time. So yeah, its the cards, be they Arizona, Phoenix, St. Louis or Chicago.
