I agree for the most part. This entire past week, I've been thinking this is going to be a mirror of the Rams preseason game from last year, where Gun calls some blitzes, and runs some stunts.
Can they stop the hype machine? I dunno, I'm just hoping the obvious...no injuries, and that the defense doesn't go out and look like shit. |

Warner was pretty impressive in the Cardinals' first preseason game. He went 14/19 for 151 yards and a TD.

One of the big matchups I will really be looking at is CB Dexter McLeon when he lines up against either Anquan Boldin, or Larry Fitzgerald.
As our number 2 guy in the secondary, he is going to be the one that is going to be singled out and picked on. Surtain is more than capable of locking down either receiver, so McLeon is going to be getting a lot of passes thrown at him, and he has to prove that he is up to the task, or he is going to have a very very busy opening month of the regular season.

So which style of O are the Cards running? The West Coast per Bill Walsh or the Air Corryell style? I thought they were running a variation of the Air Corryell but Green ran the West Coast in Minni so I ain't for sure.

Warners success is 100% dependent on his offensive line.....like a video game quarterback. Those first 3 or so years he had with the Rams he could sit back there all day and play quarterback like playing a video game....just throw it to x, y, or z. He's very good at doing that yet give him any pressure at all though and he deteriorates worse then Phil Simms.
I used to say the Rams offense was like comparing the engine on a modern day foreign type vehicle to an old muscle car. The engines on these modern day cars are nice as long as everythings hitting on all cylinders...you got all kinds of computer circuity and gadgets in there and everything looks real nice and smooth when everything works right. But get a big hammer and knock the hell out of it and as soon as that "check engine" light comes on everything freezes up and falls apart and you're left wondering why you even bought this $50,000 piece of shit that doesn't run and is gonna cost you $1500 to fix when you could've just been driving an old loud american car that ain't fancy but is never beyond a couple of hours tinkering to get going again. Nothing will change as long as Warner's at the helm. You get pressure on him and rattle him with a big hammer and the whole offense will fall apart. If you don't his offense will look like some high tech modern day system against your old outdated defense.

We know their offense pretty well. I have a good feeling.

underplaying their recievers is a mistake. Boldin got hurt, did he not, last year and missed a large portion of the season.
I will 2nd the point made regarding O-line. If they can field a decent line they can easily win a pathetic NFC West. St louis is an empty shell of their former glory, and Mike Martz is now beginning to be exposed. How funny that a guy that kept whispering about how he was the brain behind St louis' offense during their super bowl run can't seem to replicate their success once DV & AS are gone? Its actually a testament to those two that we managed to produce so well on "O" & rework our primary focus from WR's to power running & TE heavy. Dennis Green may not be your dream coach, but he's leaps & bounds better then any coach I can remember for the Cards in ages. No one seems to be remiss about the fact that Buddy Ryan is gone- Joe Bugel, err... not so much.

I don't think it's about underestimating the WRs; again, it all starts with the F4.
Warner ain't mobile like Culpepper, but if he has all day in the pocket, he'll look like the MVP Warner and his receivers will look like Moss. That's my D focus for the upcoming game.

I just want to see them working on fundamentals, and maintaining discipline. Don't break out the playbook until the real season starts.
