NFC West predictions: Kolb enough to put the Cardinals over the Rams?

Although I think the Hogs are our biggest threat. I’ve seen a few of Kevin Kolb’s games when he was in Philly, and he was impressive at times, and awful on other occasions. If he can find some consistency, and if that line holds up, they just might be able to pose a serious threat. The Hogs on the other hand, it comes down to whether Tarvaris Jackson/Charlie Whitehurst shows up or not, and if SIdney Rice can be consistent. If those two pan out, than they may be slightly better than us.

With that said, I don’t think either team will reach their full potential this year leaving the division for our taking. I’m not worried about the 49ers at all by the way.

Offensive weapons are obvious and defense has immense potential, Even though Smith is the QB and Kapernick is a rookie who struggled much in his first game their HC is really good and could have an effect for the team in tougher games.

but I voted for them.

I don’t think any team is as complete as the Rams overall offensively and defensively, but it’s not like we’re a complete lock to win the division. I think Seattle will struggle a lot losing Tatupu and really not upgrading at all offensively (oh boy, Tarvaris Jackson will succeed now because he’s never had a weapon like Sidney Rice! … Oh wait, he had Jackson and Adrian Peterson and he still sucked). The 49ers probably are about as talented as they were last year, and if they can get it all together they could challenge. And the Cardinals are terrible. Kolb isn’t really an upgrade over anybody they had last year. Every single QB that plays in Philadelphia struggles when they leave.

….but since when is 8-8 better than 10-6?

We’re gonna win the division. And Bradford > Kolb…that’s one math problem I can get right.

AND

Why are the Cards more popular than the Rams? You know this pick is fueled by our lack of popularity, right? I mean, nobody wants to hear about the Rams winning the division cause it’s not sexy, not cause people don’t know it’s gonna happen.

punt him right in the baby makers, as he’s putting on that hat

no pass rush=no wins

and with the SMART offseason moves we’ve made, I’m not concerned about any of the three

isn’t signing with the 9er’s. Watching him get sacked by lineman his size just seemed like it would’ve been a lot of fun to watch

but in my opinion, the NFC East is far better than the AFC West….and we had the Panthers and Lions last year…….not the Ravens and Steelers.

….not to mention the Super Bowl Champions

I’m all for optimism, but 13-3 might be a stretch. I hope I’m wrong

have roughed up knees. I know!

Well, um, actually a pretty nice little Thursday, I’m going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don’t know, I don’t know if I’ll have enough time.

has got to be the 49ers! Singletary couldn’t even get the correct number of players on the field and just that change alone should make a difference with all that young talent. Cards and Seahawks are gonna get swept by the Rams (that’s 4 wins)…Split with the 49ers (that’s 5), Browns and Bengals are 2 more (that’s 7) and two or three wins out of the first seven puts us at 9-7 or 10-6. I’m psyched!

If anyone thinks the Rams are harsh on our NFL West opponents, check this out-

Jets coach Rex Ryan recently invited other teams to beat the Patriots, thereby giving New York a clearer path to the AFC East title. In fact, Ryan and the Jets have been open in talking about knocking New England off its perch this season, winning a division crown that would bring a home playoff game and possibly a bye.

The 49ers are and always will be the Rams most serious challenger, regardless of records. Go Rams!!!!!

I think the Cardinals are either going to be 3rd or last in the division this year. I think it is blatantly obvious that the Cardinals are have god awful offensive tackles and they havent done anything imo to fix this problem.

I think Kurt Warner covered this glaring problem by getting the ball out quickly…but remember he was also getting the shit knocked out if him alot until he suggested to Whisenhunt that they run more swing pass plays to get around their abysmal running game and help in pass protection during their superbowl run season.

There is alot of pressure for the Cardinals to get a hot prospect at QB because Larry Fitz is contemplating weather he is going to be an Arizona Cardinal or not. Larry is the face of the franchise. Larry has a smart agent that blocked franchise tagging and other restrictions the team could put on him in his current contract. The Cardinals drew up a bunch of plays in the first preseason game to chuck the ball to fitz to warm him up to the idea that it could be like this in the regular season.

Whisenhunt has been currently downplaying Cardinal fan fears that their offensive tackles arent going to keep kolb upright saying its being blown out of proportion and can be corrected. However their GM previously had taken the opposite approach and said the Cardinals were making it a top priority to fix this problem in FA.

Kolb has some scrambling ability, but he is young and holds on to the football at times. The Rams Dline is going to face plant that guy over and over and over again.
