Not only are the Cardinals missing Kurt Warner's production, they are sorely missing his leadership as Arizona currently searches desperately for a team identity I get a sick feeling of nostalgia every time a broadcast of a 2010 Cardinals game shows highlights of Kurt Warner zipping passes between three defenders right into the chest of Anquan Boldin or Larry Fitzgerald.  It’s just as discomforting, however, knowing what Warner is no longer bringing to the locker room; a steady hand, an...Read Full Story

It’s a subject that hasn’t been covered at Cardinals Gab for a while, but it seems to have become relevant again now that Arizona’s season has turned quite sour.  To be sure, the Cardinals lost a lot of talent when these four Pro Bowl caliber players left during the ‘09 – ‘10 off-season.  Warner retired, Dansby and Rolle departed as free agents, and Boldin was traded to Baltimore for draft picks.  Aside from Darnell Dockett and Larry Fitzgerald, a large part of the nucleus that lead the...Read Full Story

The Cardinals also lost more than just production when Karlos Dansby and Anquan Boldin...Read Full Story

Image courtesy of Icon SMI   You aren’t going to find many bigger Larry Fitzgerald fans than yours truly. I have forever loved the way he approaches the game. He learned how to prepare for an NFL season from Cris Carter and followed in his footsteps of gathering WRs around the league for a grueling camp.   Not only does he prepare intensely, and take young players under his wing (Sidney Rice last year for example), but he never seems to be in conflict with the team or his teammates...Read Full Story

Some analysts, particularly the Fantasy Football prognosticators, are predicting Derrick Mason’s numbers will drop off this coming season.  In a recent column by Michael Fabiano, Fantasy Editor, NFL.com, he discusses ‘players fantasy owners should avoid,’ one of those being receiver Derrick Mason. Fabiano is complimentary of Mason, but states, “ this is the time when his numbers will start to decline,” with the additions of Anquan Boldin and Donte Stallworth in the mix. It will be...Read Full Story

It appears more than ever that the Cardinals are going to try and move wide out Anquan Boldin, who missed both of the teams playoff games due to injury. The National Football Post reports that the move is going to be made at some point this offseason, and they will look at all options in moving him: Cardinals general manager Rod Graves reiterated that the team isn’t opposed to the possibility of exploring trade scenarios for wide receiver Anquan Boldin, as they did last year heading into...Read Full Story
