Adrian Wilson came into this season to recover from a disappointing 2010 season for the Arizona Cardinals. He injured his biceps and it was thought he might have to miss the season. He decided to play through the injury and didn't miss a regular season game.

The start of his season was pretty uneventful. He wasn't always in place and was not making impact plays like in the past. Of course, he was dealing with the injury and playing in a new scheme that Ray Horton brought to the team.

Since the start of the season, he has made huge strides, but it might have a reason other than what you might think.

The sports world has been on fire discussing the antics of Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh during the Thanksgiving Day game against the Green Bay Packers. Suh has earned himself a two-game suspension for his stomping a Green Bay offensive lineman. While most talking heads in the media have done nothing but bash his behavior, there is a guy who, while he does not condone what happened, understands Suh's behavior. That would be none other than Cardinals defensive lineman Darnell Dockett.

On Tuesday, Dockett was on Twitter giving Suh some advice and sharing his experience with anger and the game of football.

It has been quite a while since we had a Sunday to be happy about, at least regarding our Arizona Cardinals fandom. Likewise, the players have been less active on Twitter after games (except when A.J. Jefferson or Patrick Peterson are responding to people sending them negative mentions). But tonight, it is back to good vibes, after Patrick Peterson gave the Cardinals a victory over the St. Louis Rams.

Hit the jump to read the reactions.

It has been a while since the last Tweet, Tweet post, but it it has been a while since there was anything entertaining on Twitter by the Arizona Cardinals players. But finally over the past few days, there have been some good ones. Back the last time we put one of these up, John Skelton was your winner, with a tweet that I didn't think would get the attention it did. At 47 percent, it was a landslide winner. 

Hit the jump for the newest tweets to vote on. I think you will like them. Remember to vote for your favorite.

We have previously had Derek Anderson's argument with a fan over Twitter (it seems like DA deleted his account as well), and recently A.J. Jefferson had an argument and Hamza Abdullah criticized some of the fans over their Twitter pages. Now, Patrick Peterson (@ThE_rEaL_P2) has joined in on the fun.

After a 32-20 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the 1-5 Arizona Cardinals found more ways to lose. On Sunday, it was a case of mistakes and big plays. However, they were able to stay in the game and keep it close for most of the game. They scored a touchdown to pull the score to 17-14 and had momentum, but were unable to get a stop defensively on the ensuing Pittsburgh drive.

As frustrating a game it was for the fans, apparently it was frustrating for the players to deal with a stadium that had thousands of Pittsburgh Steelers fans, obviously the result of the 1-4 start after some somewhat lofty expectations in the NFC West. Reserve safety Hamza Abdullah vented his frustration on Twitter after the game. 

It raises an important question -- how much should the fans be expected to pick up their team and how much is it on the team to fire up the fans?

After the Derek Anderson late night Twtter tirade of a year ago, he eventually deleted his account. Jay Feely is on Twitter silence until the Cardinals win again. Darnell Dockett is known to tweet some strange things and sometimes make himself look like a buffoon. 

More recently, it was cornerback A.J. Jefferson who had an exchange with a fan about the random things he tweets to interact with his fanbase.

With the slow weekend for the Cardinals because of their bye week, I have time to share some of the the players' tweets, even though some have been missing. Jay Feely hasn't tweeted a single thing in almost a month. Darnell Dockett was MIA this last week. Adrian Wilson only got on to rant and hasn't been on since. 

Last time you had a chance to vote for your favorite tweet, it was Alfonso Smith whose tweet you liked best, just edging out Mike Adams' and his. Here is the one you liked:

After the jump, see the nominees.
