A few questions...outside the Raiders, who has a better trio of WR's than the Cards?

Warner, if healthy, will benefit greatly from the Cards WR's...as will rookie JJ Arrington who should have a lot of space to run through

Bertrand Berry had 14 sacks last year..the Cards also acquired Chike Okeafor who's had 16.5 sacks the last 2 years along with Darnell Dockett who reminds me of a young LaRoi Glover

A pass rush hides alot of deficiencies

They have Rolle and Tate @ CB-- guys who will get beat from time to time but will also make plays....Adrian Wilson @ S along with a young, fast group @ LB

The Cards will have a better record than the Jints, Cowboys and Redskins and will make it to at least the divisional round of the playoffs and quite possibly to the NFC Championship game @ Philly

I disagree. I dont know why everyone is so in love with Kurt Warner (not you specifically). I just feel like he hasent done anything substantial in so long; and while I think the guy was a great story a while back, he's just not good anymore.

JJ Arrington is someone who I think can find a good spot in the league, but he's a rookie; and he is not running behind a very good offensive line. Even with those recivers last season, they were only ranked a couple spots higher than we were offensivley. They are just in the middle of the league defensivley. In addition, they were the only team the freaking 49ers beat last year. I know this is a parody league, but I just dont think the addition of Warner and a few rookies are going to make a difference overnight. Thats not to say I think they will be a bad team, because if any team sleeps on them, it will mean trouble. But I dont think this team is anywhere near NFC Championship Material.
