Why is this the Ramsey treatment? Ramsey wasn't the only player to ever get the short end of the stick, in fact I thought he got a relatively decent shot to show improvement here.
It's my hope that with a top 5 passing defense we can shut the Cards down, and should logically be able to.
But this year we've played a 38 year old Trent Green, McNabb, Eli, Kitna, and a 38 year old Favre.
Rattay is certainly better than elderly Green and Kitna, and based on what McNabb has done this year...him too. The only QB we struggled with was Eli, so Rattay's probably not good enough to toss 350 and 6 TD's on us, but its a good signing by Arizona, and it is another challenge for us.
We have shut down good QBs this year, but this arugment that we should have no problem whatsoever this week is a little bit blind faith and very much uninformed. At the end of the day, we are still 4th in total defense, but are you expecting this to be a season in which we set many defensive records. Eli showed that we could be had by a QB who was not elite...so I would ask us not to get too overconfident, even if there is good reason to feel safe.

Every week is going to be a challenge, but to put Rattay in the same tier of QBs as Kitna, McNabb and Green? Whooooaaaaa Cowboy.
I'm not saying this week will be no problem whatsoever, but our D should get a break considering the compared cometition to this point. We still have to score.
