Arizona Cardinal of the Week: NFC Championship Edition

Congratulations to the Arizona Cardinals for making it to the SUPER BOWL!! After a hard fought battle to the end with the Philadelphia Eagles, the Cardinals prevailed on top to go to the franchise's first ever Super Bowl appearance. When you make it to the big game, you will tend to feature several players that helped win the game for us. Last week was Larry Fitzgerald, helping the Cardinals get over the slump of losing on the East Coast. This week he had a big game again. Although he played great, you need to look at who is feeding him the ball, the grey-beard, Kurt Warner. Warner has stepped up in the playoffs and played like an MVP so far. The defense almost fell apart late in the game but came together when they needed to. A-Dub brought his A-game and layed out two sacks.

As always, if you feel anybody should be added to the list, just explain who and why.

Gotta go with Warner here

As amazing as Fitz is, and much we saw from A-Dub Warner was just on.

Who would win in a fight, Whisenhunt or a Hurricane?
Hold on, hold on, what if the Hurricanes name was Whisenhunt?
Daaaaaaaaaa Cards, Da Cards Da Cards Da Cards Da Cards!!!

Congratulations and good luck. Talk about fate, Ken Whisenhunt vs The Steelers.

Can I put a write-in vote

for Todd Haley? His game plan was almost perfect in the first half, and then there was the game-winning drive; helluva job.

I have a feeling..

Kurt Warner is never going to win CotW. He’s been on every one except the New England game. I voted for him.

We wouldn't be here without him

145.7 passer rating and still no love, oh well.

Last night I would have voted Larry

but in the cold light of day you have to respect KW’s poise – he took a lot of hits in that second half and he got up and led the team fown the field on the best drive I have seen this team have ever!
A lot of respect to Todd Haley for his play calling too!
