nuuuuuu you didn't just pick the seahawks over the Cards at home?



 

Why not?  It's not like the cards are unbeatable.  The Seahawks are a better team now then the last time they faced the cards and they barely lost then.  The Seahawks tend to struggle against teams with strong defensive lines/pass rush which is actually one of the cardinals weakest areas.  I think this game could be a toss up.  If the Seahawks didn't have so many injuries on their line and at running back I would favor the Seahawks... But right now I would call it a coin flip...

I like ruffling feathers mostly. But I do see a Cards win.

They're not unbeatable but they are a much stronger team who will be playing at home. Even without Matheiu at Safety last week - Bethel stepped up and did a bang up job. I think their defensive depth is unparalleled. Not weak at any position by any means.

They also have the best Offense in the league (in total yards and points to be specific).

I mean I could be wrong. They are fresh off of stomping the Packers so they may not be too frosty. But Bruce isn't resting anyone http://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/nfl/cardinals/2015/12/28/cardinals-bruce-arians-says-he-wont-rest-players-vs-seahawks/77980356/.

Listen to Bruce talk and you can tell they won't be taking the game lightly. So after that it's a question of match ups, and to me Arizona wins every match up.

Josh Freeman may be starting a game with playoff implications in 2016. This fact blows my mind!

Welll...

Josh Freeman career pass completion rate = 57.6%

Cam Newton pass completion rate this year = 58.6%

Peyton Manning % this year = 59.9%



Peyton Manning completion rate when the other team counts as receivers = 75%

His (Freeman's) career performance means a lot less than his last years, as well as the fact that he hasn't played in two years or so.

Is he? I thought the Broncos win on MNF knocked the Colts out of of the playoffs.

It would require several other games to have a very specific set of outcomes to give the Colts a better strength of schedule, so it's clearly not happening, but technically the Colts are still playoff eligible, so I went with the clickbait attention grabbing headline.
