Arizona Cardinals 2010 Power of Schedule, Futures, Odds and Predictions5781277

The Arizona Cardinals, and in distinct Kurt Warner, have been a great story the earlier two seasons. Of system, in 2008 Warner led the Cards to their very first Tremendous Bowl and just one particular Santonio Holmes catch from 1 of the excellent Super Bowl upsets.

Last calendar year, Warner was once again tremendous, throwing for 3,753 yards and 26 touchdowns as Arizona won the NFC West for the second calendar year in a row. His work in the wild-card spherical against the Green Bay Packers was a single for the ages. Warner threw for 379 yards and 5 touchdowns - with just 4 incompletions and no picks - in the fifty one-forty five shootout win over the Packers. It seemed like Warner could play for a few much more seasons at least.

Then came the divisional spherical match towards the Saints, and Warner was definitely wrecked on a hit in that one - a strike so difficult it was probably the ultimate act for him to select to retire quickly following the loss. So the 2010 Cardinals will be with out their best offensive participant from last yr. And they will also be with no their ideal defensive player as well. Linebacker Karlos Dansby, who scored the profitable touchdown on a fumble return in the playoff game towards Green Bay, is now a Miami Dolphin. And basic safety Antrel Rolle was let go in a income cap move.

It seems at 1st look that Arizona will be using a stage again this year. I haven't even talked about the reality that No. 2 WR Anquan Boldin is now a Raven, but it seems like he might be replaceable with Steve Breaston. Arizona brought in previous Browns QB Derek Anderson to compete with Matt Leinart, but the QB work is Leinart's to lose. If he are unable to do a thing this yr, the former Heisman Trophy winner possibly has to officially be categorised as a bust. Undoubtedly the group is not going to common 605 move attempts as it did underneath Warner, so seem for a lot more of Tim Hightower and Beanie Wells on the floor.

BetUS lists Arizona's NFL time wins overall at 7.five and its NFL odds to acquire one more division title at 250. What can we anticipate? Let us acquire a seem at the 2010 Arizona Cardinals timetable (all moments Eastern):

Week 1: Sunday, Sep. 12, at St. Louis, four:fifteen PM Week two: Sunday, Sep. 19, at Atlanta, 1:00 PM Week three: Sunday, Sep. 26, Oakland, four:15 PM Week four: Sunday, Oct. 3, at San Diego, 4:fifteen PM Week five: Sunday, Oct. 10, New Orleans, four:05 PM Week six: BYE Week seven: Sunday, Oct. 24, at Seattle, 4:05 PM Week 8: Sunday, Oct. 31, Tampa Bay, four:15 PM Week nine: Sunday, Nov. seven, at Minnesota, one:00 PM Week 10: Sunday, Nov. 14, Seattle, 4:fifteen PM Week 11: Sunday, Nov. 21, at Kansas Town, 1:00 PM Week 12: Monday, Nov. 29, San Francisco, 8:thirty PM Week 13: Sunday, Dec. 5, St. Louis, four:15 PM Week 14: Sunday, Dec. twelve, Denver, four:fifteen PM Week 15: Sunday, Dec. 19, at Carolina, one:00 PM Week sixteen: Saturday, Dec. 25, Dallas, seven:thirty PM Week 17: Sunday, Jan. two, at San Francisco, four:fifteen PM

The very good information is that when it will come to NFL Handicapping Arizona's strength of routine ranks useless final in terms of 2009 opponents' profitable percentage (114-142,.445). But never go through also considerably into that contemplating four of the five least complicated NFL schedules belong to NFC West teams - the division is that undesirable. Only 4 Arizona opponents manufactured the playoffs last yr.

At minimum the Cards get a piece of cake opener in opposition to the Rams, who have not won a home sport given that Week seven of the 2008 season. That could be a fantastic matchup in opposition to St. Louis rookie QB Sam Bradford. The Cardinals will perform 3 of their first four video games on the road, but 5 of their final 8 will be at home. The very last time they opened the period with a few of their initial four video games on the highway was their 2008 Super Bowl period. Last year, the Cardinals experienced the franchise's most wins on the road- 6 - considering that 1963.

Anticipate Arizona to be 2-3 heading into the bye week in NFL picks. Not 1 opponent has a bye the week just before actively playing the Cardinals this 12 months, which is odd. There is really no reason that Arizona cannot gain every residence game immediately after the bye apart from for most likely Dallas and perhaps the 49ers, who swept the Cards final 12 months. The Cardinals' home match on Xmas night time is the very first time they have played on Xmas because 1995. That Monday nighter with the Niners is the fourth yr in a row the two groups have satisfied on MNF.

Arizona ought to be a puppy in every single street recreation immediately after the bye except maybe at Kansas City. But that is most likely to be a chilly-weather conditions sport, which ought to be a big Chiefs edge. This smells like a 7-nine group to me, so take the under on BetUS and count on San Francisco to acquire the NFC West this 12 months.
