[Woy]

lol @ the one day bump

Good game man the throwbacks were good to you

Lol sorry, I just like at least one comment after I post a game. I've always been like that.
And thanks Herm.

who the hell is Nathan Hodel lol.

Lol backup TE to Freddie Jones. He's like a 60 overall, haha. I run a lot of 2 TE sets in my 'chise, so he gets a good bit of opportunities to catch some passes.

Nice Win. I really like this 'chise.

Thank you, love seeing new followers.

I'll try to post a game tonight - depends if they hold me long at work again or not.

[G-men]

Week 15 Preview

at
St. Louis Rams (5-8) at Arizona Cardinals (11-2)

Pre-Game Injury Report

STL- Steven Jackson, HB (neck spasms - out) | Kevin Curtis, WR (broken kneecap - out)
ARZ- Adrian Wilson, SS (fractured arm - probable) | Larry Fitzgerald, WR (concussion - out)

Pre-Game Matchups

Rams QB Marc Bulger (227-387, 2800 yards, 27 TD, 16 INT) vs. Cardinals QB Drew Henson (247-399, 3605 yards, 25 TD, 14 INT)

Bulger looked pretty good in the first game against this Arizona squad, throwing three touchdowns and only one pick. However they lost by 23 the first time, so the running game needs to step up or Bulger has to throw for 500 yards for the Rams to win. Henson threw three scores but also three interceptions last time against St. Louis, but he's gotten better in the last 14 weeks. Look for another great game by the star rookie.

Rams HB Marshall Faulk (141 carries, 594 yards, 2 TD) vs. Cardinals HB Emmitt Smith (256 carries, 981 yards, 12 TD)

Faulk has been battling injuries the entire year and his backup Steven Jackson is out for this game with neck spasms. Last time Faulk was hampered with a sprained wrist and only held to 53 yards rushing. He needs to have a good game for the Rams to have a chance. Smith needs only 19 yards for 1000, so even with a bad game, he should be able to get that. He struggled last time against the Rams, so he'd definitely like to put on a show in front of the home crowd.

Rams WR Torry Holt (54 catches, 782 yards, 8 TD) vs. Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin (82 catches, 1499 yards, 12 TD)

Holt was great last time against Arizona, catching nice passes and a score with over 150 yards. Him and Issac Bruce make up one of the best receiving duos in the league and both would help out the Rams' winning chances with big games. Boldin is without Fitzgerald, but he's still damn good. Bryant Johnson will look to make up some of Fitzgerald's production this week.

Prediction: Cardinals 27, Rams 17

THE RUNNING GAME STRUGGLES, CARDINALS DROP THEIR THIRD GAME

ARZ- Neil Rackers 31 yard field goal

SECOND QUARTER
ARZ- Erik Bickerstaff 3 yard run (Neil Rackers kick)
STL- Marshall Faulk 3 yard run (Jeff Wilkins kick)

THIRD QUARTER
ARZ- Drew Henson 6 yard pass to Freddie Jones (Neil Rackers kick)

FOURTH QUARTER

STL- Jeff Wilkins 35 yard field goal
ARZ- Drew Henson 56 yard pass to Bryant Johnson (Neil Rackers kick)

GLENDALE, AZ (AP) - One thing that has stood out in the Cardinals' losses this year is the ineffectiveness of the running game. Well chalk up another loss with that being the reason. Despite cornerback Mike Rumph picking off two passes and Drew Henson throwing for 358 yards and two touchdowns, the Cardinals fell to the Rams, 24-27. After a fourth down stop, the Rams got the ball at their own 41 yard line. Marshall Faulk took a carry to the right side for five yards and then Bulger threw an incompletion. He then found Torry Holt for 17 yards, and then found him again for 14 yards. After targeting Holt again and missing, Bulger found him on a post for 22 yads and a score.

Henson came back by hitting Anquan Boldin for 14 yards. Boldin caught 10 passes, his third game in a row with 10+ catches. Emmitt Smith carried the ball for three yards and then Freddie Jones caught a Henson pass over the middle for 14 yards. A dropped pass by Nathan Poole was followed up by another first down pass to Jones. Henson found Boldin again for 21 yards, but Jerametrius Butler broke up the following pass. Another Poole dropped pass set up fourth down where Neil Rackers put in a field goal. Erik Bickerstaff score from three yards out on the following Arizona drive, but Faulk answered with his own three yard score for the Rams.

Henson found Jones for six late in the third quarter and after a Jeff Wilkins field goal, the Cardinals got the ball with the game tied up. That's when Henson made his only mistake, under-throwing Bryan Gilmore and DeJuan Groce stepped in front to pick off the pass. 22 yards later Groce was dancing in the endzone with the lead that the Rams wouldn't relinquish. The Cardinals fall to 11-3 and will head to Seattle to face the Seahawks next Sunday.
