Jeremy Beal, Mitch Unrein, Malik Jackson, and Kevin Vickerson would all be picked up immediately if they were released.

And Barry Richardson is playing on a team this year. What's your point?

The Cardinals were also in their second preseason game so they would naturally be a little ahead of most teams.

Yea they do. A WR doesn't have as much impact on a game as a QB and a RB and it also seemed like the Cardinals weren't trying to target Fitz when he was out there.

So were the Saints and they only put up 6 points in their second game.

Exactly why the bears were much worse off. The cards played their starters.

I think the AFC West is going to be much tougher than people think. Denver will also have to contend with that. KC and San Diego are going to surprise many. Oakland I think will be the only dog in the division. But you can throw the records out in rivalry games.

Cards top 2 RBs didn't play in that game. Probably wouldn't have mattered, Cards are lucky to win 3 this year. Preseason is good for breaking the football drought but doesn't tell us much.

If Cassel plays good not great but just good (although we all would like for him to play great) our Chiefs win the West hands down. Our D will kick ass even more because they will actually have had some rest not being on the field 2/3rds of the time.

Preseason on CP is a great thing to behold.

Hey... your assessment almost seems the opposite of the article's! Why is that?

He's got as much chance of being right as Bill Barnwell, whoever the **** that is.

I'll have to agree. As much as I rip Slowmo for posting some slapdicks opinion, I really can't take someone like this words as gospel.

I don't think too many people should read much into preseason success or failure and how it translates to the regular season.

I mean, that quote doesn't really mean anything. Cassel DIDN'T play good. He had 18 turnovers in 7 games. Even if you expected him to be bad, I don't think anyone thought he'd be THAT bad.

They would. Beal wound up getting hurt and was put on IR and the other 3 made the Broncos roster last year.

It's hit and miss for the casual fan. VictorCruz is an example of someone who recently made the most of preseason opportunities.
