NFL Team By Team Judnalysis Part XIX

Picked to get off the schneid (sp?) each of the past two years, the Arizona Cardinals should be a juggernaut on offense this year with Leinart under center, Fitzgerald and Boldin at the wideouts, Leonard Pope in his 2nd year at TE, Edge at RB and rookie Levi Brown anchoring a partially revamped offensive line. With Dennis Green out as HC and Ken Whisenhunt (former Steelers OC) installed, I am looking for big things. The defense should be decent, but it probably will not be able to shut down the other 3 NFC West teams for 6 games. Thus, it will probably be another year before this team is in the playoffs. Hopefully, the Cardinals will rescue Rod Tidwell from such crap as Daddy Day Camp and Snow Dogs and bring him back as a third wide receiver.
