Arizona Cardinals Weekly Flock: The 'Three Wins in a Row Feels Good' Edition
Judging from the title, it's obvious that right now it's a good moment to be an Arizona Cardinal fan. First place in the West, three wins in a row and on the road, and a win over a good New York Giants team is starting to feel good. Let's take a look around the web.
- Darren Urban gives bits and pieces of information from the game, including the spotting of a "critter" that caused running back Jason Wright to jump into the arms of Beanie Wells. "He hopped in my arms like a little girl," Wells said with a smile. "It was the funniest thing I’ve seen in my life."
- Urban also gets the recap from coach Ken Whisenhunt. Whiz says that Beanie is "not going to be the starter anytime soon". He also said that they probably should have ran more after the Cardinals recovered the fumble at the end of the game.
- Urban also gives a more in-depth look at why Beanie Wells won't be starting soon. Whisenhunt has more confidence in Hightower right now.
- Finally, Urban looks at the status of DRC's ankle sprain. DRC said he's ok and he will be back quick. He also talks about Alan Branch's big game and Anquan Boldin.
- Mike Sando looks at the remaining games on the schedule and believes the Cardinals can finish with 9 or 10 victories this season.
- Sando also looks at the success Kurt Warner had against the standard pass rush and the extra blitz on Sunday. Warner was clearly better when the Giants only brought standard pressure.
- Kent Somers discusses a funny story in the locker room after the game. After Alan Branch learned he had two sacks, he and Bryan Robinson attempted a high five that went bad. Apparently, Robsinon's hand smacked Somers in the face, breaking his glasses and cutting his nose. All is good, as Somers laughed it off.
- From AZcentral, Bob McManaman discusses how the Cardinals defense is gaining confidence. Ever since their goal line stand against the Texans, they've been riding that momentum against the Seahawks and Giants.

Dockett won't be a PBer this year....
While he may deserve to be he doesn’t have the stats to make it this year (20 tackles and a sack). The masses vote based on stats and name recognition and he doesn’t have either. Sucks for him because he deserves it but his best chance is to named an alternate and then have someone get hurt.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

Last year the ballots didn't even include stats, they just went off name and pos
And Docketts name is starting to become household after his 3 sack super bowl and national attention so far this year. NFL network and NFL live analyst love them some Dockett which helps also.
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.

He’s gaining ground but with Haynesworth being in the NFC now and the Kevin Williams in Minny, he’s third in line at best.

True for the fans
Once they see those names they probably automatically pick them. But the coaches and players vote too, and so far Hayensworth isn’t having a great year with that defense like he’s had in the past. The Vikings are also not as good at stopping the rush like they’ve been. And defensive tackles are sack machines. The job is to disrupt the line, which I think Dockett does fine at.
Just looking at the strong safeties, Wilson should be a lock. There’s nobody else on the NFC side that comes close. Rolle could get in as a back up to Sharper, because we all know he’s goin.

Doesn't matter who starts at RB as long as Beanie gets most of the carries

fan votes count for surprisingly little
i know they say it’s a third but if you’ve garnered respect among your peers and coaches which many of the coaches have. a-dub wouldn’t have made it last year had the fans had all the say but coaches have to game plan for him so they vote him in. i’m expecting the same this year with DRC, dockett, a-dub and maybe rolle the way he’s playing whether or not they make the final cut

Its players and coaches though
Which true thank god. Otherwise we would’ve seen a ton of Redskins in the pro bowl last year.

God I can't stand him
I’m waiting for the day he gets fired. He was not meant to be a head coach.
