We are going to win this weekend.

I like the increasing amount of confidence I see around here I guess, but I think that we would be far better off being extremely condescending and dismissive of Arizona. We're going to win the game after all, so why not just completely piss them off in the process by showing them as much disrespect as possible since respect is the thing that their fans want more than anything right now?

I really hate that everyone hasn't spent the week just arrogantly hand-waving this team away. They're nothing, and the only question is whether we beat SF on Thanksgiving.

(None of the above is sarcasm.)

How does what people type up in this forum effect actual games?

For years, one thing has never failed with this site. People come and go, but what remains a constant after a loss...

Assuming the game was on a Sunday:

Sunday: Shit storm. Not for the weak of heart, but certainly for those who like to say things they don't mean in the heat of the moment.

Monday: 90% percent are either still mad or depressed. Not a whole lot of productive posts in general.

Tuesday: The mad and depressed are down to about 60%. The posts from the other 40% who are clear headed, offer posts filled with reason. The 60% crowd tells the 40% crowd that they can keep living in fantasy land if it helps them.

Wednesday: Real progress is made. Now the board is split 50/50. The general tone of the board feels much better and it's much easier to read and post.

Thursday: 80% now actually feel okay with the loss. There's been enough time that has gone by to allow the sting of the loss to subside. Now they can focus on ways to beat this weekend's opponent. The 20% group still thinks everybody else needs to remove the blue-colored glasses.

Friday: Ah, yes. 95% are not only okay with last week's loss, but that we're GOING TO WIN this weekend and here's why. The 5% group chooses to keep their beliefs "based in reality".

It's quite astounding that people are writing off this cardinal team. They have bucked what I think is a fallacious trend of "its a qb driven league" as they are winning with a great d, and a backup qb.


people were lynching me after the raider game when I told people that we could lose this game. Didn't we lose to them last year at home? Quickly people forget.

I'm sorry people, u can blame bevell all u want, and how u are not impressed with richardson, which is another asinine assessment considering Wilson is on his fourth center and has lost his tight end for the year, but when our hawks have their work cut out for tomorrow, maybe a 9-2 or hopefully not a 10-1 arizona team might be taken seriously.
