    Busting Ghosts: Can the Arizona Cardinals Beat Vegas Odds Again Sunday and Make it to the Super Bowl?

    Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt is Arizona's ace in the hole. Color Terry Bradshaw red, for he has seen the light, brother.

    Who Would've Ever Thunk it? The Arizona Cardinals are a Win Away From the Super Bowl

     In our wildest dreams, we never thought we'd be saying Arizona Cardinals and Super Bowl in  the same breath. We never thought we'd be saying Arizona Cardinals and two consecutive playoff wins in the same breath. But here Kurt Warner (pictured) and the Cardinals are, ... More >>

    Arizona Cardinals Go Cosmic Against Atlanta Falcons in Historic Playoff Win

    The game was clinched on a third-and-16, 23-yard pass from Captain Kurt to Mr. Spach. It was logical. Most teams would've kept it on the ground and probably had to punt, giving their opponent another chance to score and win the game. But most teams don't have Arizona's passing attack. So  Card ...

    Luck of the Draw: Arizona Cardinals vs. Atlanta Falcons in NFC First-Round Playoff on Saturday

    "Charmed" seems an odd descriptor for the 2008-09 Arizona Cardinals, who lost -- no, were crushed in -- four of their last six regular-season games. Yet here they sit, all warm and snuggly at 9-7, hosting a first-round playoff game at home in the Red Zone. Meanwhile, a couple of teams they lost to ... More >>

    The Weather Was Rotten in New England, and So Were the Arizona Cardinals (Except Matt Leinart)

    It wasn't the worst defeat in Cardinals history. The worst was a 49-0 ass-kicking by the Kansas City Chiefs in December, 2002. But it was an ass-kicking, all right. I know we've said it before, but the Cardinals were really pathetic this time. And it wasn't all about the weather in Foxboro, Ma ... More >>
