Gamethread Highlights: Week Seven

There were more Steelers fans than Cardinals fans at the game yesterday, they were also the only ones who left with a smile on their faces. (Photo by Karl Walter/Getty Images)

Another loss, another anger filled gamethread where pretty much everyone on the team was getting bashed. The crowd was also getting bashed because of how it seemed like there were more Steelers fans than Cardinals fans... The Red Sea is just too accommodating to fans of opposing teams now.

So, here are some highlights from that gamethread in all of their glory.

Thank you Cardinals, for making me go through all of this misery again. Can't you just get a win so I can have some peaceful joy filled reading of happy comments on a Monday?

The Comments -

This crowd is ridiculous

God, I hate Steelers fans. They’re just like Lakers fans. They’re everywhere.

Running isn't working

Passing isn’t working.

How about QB sneaking?

Kolb already runs in circles

If we could teach him to run in a straight line we might have something

How come Tim Tebow

Who’s in his first career start, minus his #1 WR (Brandon Lloyd), and with a Coaching Staff that hates him, is playing better than Kevin Kolb, who’s in his 13th career start, 6th start with the team, a WR like Fitz, and a Coaching Staff that lets him throw it 75% of the time?

(Actually, it was his fourth start, but the point stands)

Wow, booing

Even though the crowd is practically all yellow, the Cards fans still get through. Good for them.

Our Coaching Staff is full of ex-Steelers

And we’re terrible. New plan: Fill our Coaching Staff with ex-Bengals. Guaranteed championship.

Wow

Even though I agree that Kolb’s been bad today, if this is all you’re goign to post every 3 minutes, then don’t even post at all. We get it, you don’t like Kolb. Go away.

by KholdStare88 on Oct 23, 2011 3:01 PM MST up reply actions 1 recs

(We are getting chippy at this point)

That play by Kolb/LSH was superb

Kolb recognized matchup. LSH stops and changes direction. Kolb waits for space. TD

Like the Cardinals? Revenge of the Birds is where to go.
Like Arizona Sports in general? SB Nation Arizona is where you'll get it all.

They've got so many bandwagon fans

They make the Lakers look like a small-town team.

Are they really bandwagoners though?

We’ll all move past the "sad" stage and into the "laughing hysterically at each mistake" stage. I hope.

Even Leinart showed more poise than Kolb

and that is a bad thing.

This team sucks...

no pressure at all, penalties out the ass. They couldn’t find the end zone if they were standing in it and they couldn’t stop a pass play if the ball was thrown to them, they would drop it. They suck, plain and simple.

by Birdman2 on Oct 23, 2011 3:52 PM MST reply actions

Everyone's leaving

The crowd’s getting more and more yellow. I love my Cardinals!

List of things that are bad:

-QB
-O-line
-Tackling
-Penalties
-Clutch
-Coaching Staff
-Playcalling
-Defense
-Pass-defense
-QB
-QB
-QB

So basically, all we need to do is trade our entire team for the New England Patriots, and we’ll be good.

I wouldn't be as mad

If this was clearly a rebuilding year. But it isn’t. The team expected to win this year, and they made moves that were meant to be instant-successes. If it was a rebuilding year, we’d have something to look forward to. This is just a bad team.

DAMN! ANOTHER ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL GAME!

This coaching staff and front office has to be on the hotseat now.If the cardinals are in the position to draft Andrew Luck, I don’t want this staff coaching him. In my opinion Whiz is in over his head as a head coach.
I’m convinced that the eagles fleeced the cardinals in the Kolb trade. I’m no longer buying the "he needs more time to develop chemistry bullsh*t" Too many other qb’s that are in new situations, including rookies are looking much better. But Kolb isn’t the only guy underperforming either.

by lifelongcardfan on Oct 23, 2011 4:45 PM MST reply actions

(With that comment on the rookies, Newton and all the others had their playbooks since a day or two after the draft in April, Kolb got his after the trade near the end of July. The rookies had way more time to learn the system and work with QB coaches and the workouts their teammates organized)
