Yeah that was pretty foolish. Question though, didn't the ball touch the ground while the Eagles were tossing the ball around? SHouldn't it have been a dead ball?
No, because it was on a lateral - at that point it was a fumble and a live ball. Cards in the Super Bowl - what a shocker. Anyone who claims they saw that coming is full of it.
Didnt Brett Favre throw 6 TDs and the jets scored 50 on Arizona? I mean you should have your playoff tickets taken away by letting the Jets do that to you.
I admit it I thought they should have had their playoff spot revoked after the New England and Minnesota debacles when they lost 5 of 6.
They stopped trying real hard once they clinched their division. Much like the Thanksgiving game vs. Philadelphia, the Minnesota game got away from them real fast and it would have been difficult for any team to come back in such a game. The Eagles, Pates and Vikings were playing for playoff spots and the Cardinals had a division wrapped up. It was human nature to let up. Plus, the team is young and has a young coaching staff. . . Ken Whisenhunt put the team back to work and conducted training camp style practices after the New England debacle. I get a free lunch tomorrow. Some Eagles fan at work was foolish enough to bet me that the Eagles would win today.
Same players and everything I mean.....................Warner I admit surprised me today when he was actually holding onto the ball as opposed to just dropping it like a little girl whenever he felt contact. Just cant believe the New York Jets led by Brian Scottenheimer abused that team so badly(True no Adrian Wilson but still.......)
just got bck from d.c. my predition was VERY close! Warner is nnow the second qb to lead two different teams to the super bowl - unless yyou count earl morrall...craig morton was the other
and he was smiling after the game for a guy who makes so many mistakes and bad gambles in coverage... He did break Rice's playoff record for receiving yards, and he still has another game to go.
Cardinals become the second 7-loss team to reach the Super Bowl (the Rams lost to the Steelers 31-19 in Super Bowl XIV).
Unlike the Cardinals, those Rams teams were very good for quite a few years before finally getting to the Super Bowl
Cards are the little team, that could. They and their fans, no longer, have to wait another sixty years, for this!
