I think we are seeing the impact of Ben Grubbs early, the Saints running game is on fire tonight.

Shame we won't get a glimpse of Ryan Williams this game.

Agreed. I'm hoping he can return strong from his injury.

Am I the only one hearing a serious background audio hum?

[codizzle]

Got hyped up for this game and then just remembered I don't have nfl network and my computer is getting fixed... Sigh

Still excited though.. Football is here

[PuRock]

That was a pretty run heavy drive by the Saints.

No, I don't hear anything. Well the Saints scored and now I guess Drew Brees is done for the night. Saints really pounding the rock here, are they changing their game plan and going for the ground and pound game?

Probably not. Plus their defense isn't the best this year, so I expect a lot of shootouts, again.

These defenses are terrible. Makes me remember how great the AFC North is.

[hawkprey]

Saints 16-0. Cards suck.

Kolb is the man

[display name]

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAP!!!!!!

[JO_75]

Here comes the Cardinals. Kevin Kolb's first crack at being the starter.

[JO_75]

Kolb with a key block, if he can't be the starting QB he can be a Blocking Fullback lol.

[1/28/01]

Ha, that dude sucks!

[display name]

My prediction: 71-65 NO.
Oooh Kolb just threw a pick.

[PuRock]

That wasn't even a telegraph. Kevin Kolb sent Jenkins a tracking number before shipping.

[JO_75]

Oh yeah, beautiful pass by Kolb, and they say there is a Quarterback controversy? Nah, Kolb has got this.

[display name]

Yep. Brees is done. I'm gonna turn this off soon.

I'm surprised they took him out of the game so soon. I mean all they were doing was running the ball so it wasn't like they were risking Brees getting injured. They should have kept Brees in the game, at least not to make everyone turn it off so soon.

[Purple Nurple]

Kolb is horrible, lol

[hawkprey]

I hate hearing how Arizona has a QB controversy. They have two guys who suck. Controversy over.

[Clutch Ravens]

Why did anyone ever think Kolb had the potential to be a Franchise QB, seriously?

The Saints staff doesn't really care about how many people watch this game. There primary focus in preseason games is to come out of them injury free. If they do that, the game was a success.

[PuRock]

Curtis Lofton is a great pickup for the Saints.

[PuRock]

If I am a Cardinals fan that had a ounce of hope that Kolb could get the job done this season, that hope was quickly washed away.

[JO_75]

Thought we were going to have another Dan Orlovsky with Kolb running out of his own end zone, but yeah the referee missed the holding by Levi Brown and should have been a safety.

[JO_75]

Unless John Skelton shows something, I'm moving the Arizona Cardinals into a dead heap with the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Matt Barkley Sweepstakes.

[Irish Raven]

Chase Daniel has succuss and set records in Missouri, goes undrafted

Blaine Gabbart goes first round with a less impressive record from Missouri

I dunno

[JO_75]

Kolb is down, time for John Skelton.

[hawkprey]

I remember 2010 when the Eagles had the "best QB situation ever" with Kolb and Vick. How wrong they were.
