Arizona Cardinals Football Club Game Release

ARIZONA CARDINALS (1-1)

vs.

ST. LOUIS RAMS (1-1)

Cardinals Stadium

THIS WEEK’S GAME The Cardinals enter the third of three consecutive division games to open the season this week as they host the St. Louis Rams in their first visit to Cardinals Stadium. Both teams enter this week’s game at 1-1 and are coming off divisional losses on the road. The Cardinals fell to the Seahawks 21-10 while the Rams were defeated 20-13 by the 49ers. This week’s game marks the third time that Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner will face his former team. Warner spent 1998-2003 with the Rams and led them to two Super Bowl appearances. Warner was the league’s MVP in 1999 and 2001 and the MVP of Super Bowl XXXIV. Warner needs 254 yards this week in his 76th career game to become the second-fastest player to reach 20,000 passing yards (Dan Marino, 75). In two games against the Rams in 2005, Warner passed for 327 and 285 yards while completing a combined 69.1% of his passes. The Cardinals will face their first non-divisional opponent of ’06 next week as they travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. The Rams will return to St. Louis to host the Detroit Lions. These two teams will meet again on December 3, 2006 in St. Louis.

THE SERIES The Cardinals and Rams have met 41 times since 1946 with the Rams holding a 23-16 advantage in the series. Two games have ended in a tie. The Cards and Rams have met twice annually since the Cardinals joined the NFC West in 2002. The Cardinals have won two of the last three meetings between the two teams, but the Rams have taken six of eight since the Cards joined the division. The Rams relocated to St. Louis from Los Angeles in 1995. The Cardinals left St. Louis following the 1987 season for Arizona.

CARDINALS STADIUM OPENS

Three years and four months passed between ground-breaking and the preseason opener vs. Pittsburgh, but who’s counting? Cardinals Stadium opened as the most innovative stadium ever built in North America. The first stadium in North America to feature a retractable, natural grass playing field, Cardinals Stadium was named one of the 10 most impressive sports structures in the world by Business Week, before it ever hosted an event. The Cardinals opened their 2006 NFL preseason against the reigning Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers with a 21-13 victory.

RING OF HONOR The Cardinals have inducted nine former Cardinals into the team’s Ring of Honor in the inaugural season at Cardinals Stadium. The team will also induct two more former Cardinals in 2006, Dan Dierdorf and Pat Tillman. At halftime of the first preseason game, the Cardinals inducted eight members into their Ring of Honor: Charles W. Bidwill Sr. (HOF 1967) Jimmy Conzelman (HOF 1964) John “Paddy” Driscoll (HOF 1965) Marshall Goldberg Dick “Night Train” Lane (HOF 1974) Ollie Matson (HOF 1972) Ernie Nevers (HOF 1963) Charlie Trippi (HOF 1968) At halftime of the Cardinals regular season opener vs. San Francisco on September 10, the team added Larry Wilson (HOF 1978) to the Ring of Honor. On October 16 at halftime of the Cardinals Monday Night Football game against the Chicago Bears, the team will induct Dierdorf (HOF 1994). On November 12, Veterans Day weekend, the team will add Pat Tillman to the Ring of Honor when the team hosts Dallas.

A HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE

With every game sold out and the stadium filled primarily with Cardinals season ticket holders, fans of the Cardinals opponents can no longer count on a trip to the desert to root on their favorite team. Cardinal fans dominated the season opener, overwhelming opposing fans that were able to acquire tickets. The home crowd did not go unappreciated as the Cardinals players noticed the home crowd as soon as they stepped foot on to the field. "It actually feels like home now,” said Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin. “You go out and see everyone in Cardinals' jersey or Cardinals' colors - so it's good. The fans came out and supported us. I've been here going on four years now and we haven't had that kind of crowd, so it was good.”

CARDINALS EXTREME HOME FIELD MAKEOVER

CARDS SELL OUT REGULAR SEASON

The Cardinals sold out of their 2006 season ticket allotment in early May following the NFL Draft. However fans did have an opportunity to purchase single game tickets. On Saturday, July 22, remaining tickets for the Cardinals 10 home games went on sale to the public and within a short time, every seat to all 10 home games was sold.

CARDINALS & RAMS IN 2006 A TALE OF TWO CITIES

The Rams may be visiting Arizona this week, but the two teams have a unique history in St. Louis. The Cardinals were based in St. Louis from 1960 to 1987 before heading west to Arizona. The Rams relocated to St. Louis from Los Angeles in 1995. The Rams spent 49 years in southern California before they moved the franchise to St. Louis in 1995. In their first year in the “Show Me State” the Rams played home games in Busch Stadium, where the football Cardinals played their home games during their 28 years in St. Louis. The Cardinals moved to St. Louis from Chicago in 1960, where they began playing in 1898 as the Morgan Athletic Club, a neighborhood group that played in Chicago’s South Side, and evolved to the Chicago Cardinals. The Cards hold the distinction as being the United States’ oldest professional football franchise still in existence. Seven Cardinals employees remain with the team since the move from St. Louis to Arizona.

LAST WEEK’S GAME Game 2

Seahawks 21, CARDINALS 10 September 17, 2006 – Qwest Field – (67,470)

Arizona faced a formidable challenge in its opening road game of the year, taking on the defending NFC champions in Seattle. The hosts kept the Cardinals off balance with constant pressure and kept the potent Arizona offense from ever getting untracked. The Seahawks capitalized on big plays early and scored TDs on their first two drives. Meanwhile, Arizona hurt itself with penalties and missed opportunities, falling to 1-1 after the 21-10 defeat. On the game-opening drive, Arizona forced the Seahawks into third-n-long on two occasions but they converted each, first with a 47-yard pass from Matt Hasselbeck to WR Darrell Jackson on 3rd-n-12 and then on 3rd-n-10 thanks to a defensive holding penalty. They eventually capped the 10-play, 80-yard drive with a 2-yard Shaun Alexander run. On their next drive, the Seahawks moved 74 yards in 7 plays and again came up with a pair of big gains. The first was a 17-yard completion to Jackson on 3rd-n-12 and 4 plays later the two connected on a 49-yard TD strike that made it 14-0. Arizona’s next drive reached the Seattle 33 but failed to produce points when Neil Rackers’ 51-yard FG try bounced off the crossbar. After the first two TD drives, the Arizona defense gave up very little, holding Alexander under 100 yards and Hasselbeck under 50%. Following an INT by S Michael Boulware on the final play of the first quarter, Seattle moved to the AZ 11 but Calvin Pace blocked Josh Brown’s 30-yard FG try. Later in the second, the Seahawks advanced to the AZ 30 before LB Gerald Hayes’ diving INT killed the threat. Following the Hayes pick, AZ took over at its own 21 with 2:28 to play. The Cards moved downfield but a sack late in the half led to a hurry-up FG try of 53 yards that Rackers pushed left and the score remained 14-0 at the half. In the second half, the Cardinal defense continued to hold Seattle in check and midway through the third, a 43-yard Rackers FG put Arizona on the board and made it 14-3. That changed early in the fourth when FB Mack Strong ended an 80-yard drive with his 3-yard TD run. Arizona answered on the next series when Kurt Warner hit WR Bryant Johnson on a 40-yard TD pass on 3rd-n-9, trimming the deficit to 21-10 with 11:20 remaining. On the next play from scrimmage, momentum further shifted in Arizona’s favor when SS Adrian Wilson - who had 2.0 sacks earlier in the game - INT’d a Hasselbeck pass near midfield. The Cards advanced inside the 30 but TE Adam Bergen fumbled on the end of a pass play to halt what would be the team’s last best scoring chance with 9:45 to play.

CARDS & RAMS IN 2005 GAME 2

Rams 17, CARDINALS 12 September 18, 2005 – Sun Devil Stadium – (45,160)

In their 2005 home opener that marked the return of Kurt Warner against his former team, the Cardinals had plenty of opportunities for victory but suffered a five-point defeat to the Rams after a late-game rally ended deep in St. Louis territory with a clock run-off. The Cardinals produced four scores to the Rams three but Arizona’s were all field goals while St. Louis’ scored a pair of touchdowns and a field goal. The visitors struck first by moving 80 yards on the game’s opening drive and capped it with a 19-yard pass from Marc Bulger to Torry Holt. Later in the first, Arizona advanced to the Rams 11 but was forced to settle for a 29-yard Neil Rackers FG. Late in the first, a Warner fumble turned it over to the Rams at the Arizona 20 but one play later DT Darnell Dockett INT’d a Bulger shuffle pass to end that threat. Midway through the second, the Cards reached the Rams 1 but were backed up on a fumbled exchange, then a sack, and the drive ended with a 26-yard Rackers FG that trimmed the St. Louis lead to 7-6. A 39-yard Jeff Wilkins FG with 3:44 left in the second made it a 10-6 game at the half. Arizona’s first drive of the second half resulted in a 48-yard Rackers FG that made it 10-9 but St. Louis answered quickly with an 8-play, 76-yard drive that ended with a 7-yard Steven Jackson TD run. Trailing 17-9, the Cards reached the St. Louis 8 midway through the fourth but another sack pushed them back and resulted in Rackers’ fourth FG of the game, this one a 35-yarder that made it 17-12 with 6:59 to play. Arizona’s defense forced a punt on the next series but the Cards offense had to punt it back with just over 3:00 to play. The defense came up big again, sending the Rams three-n-out on the next possession and Arizona’s offense took over at its own 14 with 1:53 to play and one timeout. Warner then completed six straight passes for 76 yards to move the Cards to the St. Louis 5 with :27 to play. On the next play, however, an Adam Archuleta sack backed them up to the 10 and then LT Leonard Davis was called for a false start with 7 seconds on the clock and the ensuing 10-second runoff ended the game. It was one of 8 penalties (5 in the second half) called on the Cardinals, resulting in 72 yards.

GAME 10 CARDINALS 38, Rams 28

November 20, 2005 – Edward Jones Dome – (65,750) Making his St. Louis return vs. his former team, QB Kurt Warner led the Cardinals to a 10-point victory over his ex-mates. The Cards trailed 17-16 entering the fourth quarter but exploded for 22 points in the final stanza and improved to 3-7 on the season. In addition to a Warner-led passing attack that saw both Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald top 100 receiving yards and catch a TD, the run game had its most productive game of the year as J.J. Arrington and Marcel Shipp combined for 75 yards on 19 carries. On the other side of the ball, Arizona’s defense limited Steven Jackson and the Rams to just 6 rushing yards (minus-2 in the 2nd half). SS Adrian Wilson had a career-high 3.0 sacks as well as a forced fumble and fumble recovery. Kicker Neil Rackers was 3 for 3 on FG attempts to remain a perfect 31-31 on the year and also broke the franchise record for FGs in a season (30, Greg Davis in ’95). After the teams traded FGs in the 1st quarter, St. Louis went up 10-3 early in the 2nd on a 22-yard Marc Bulger to Torry Holt TD pass. The Cards answered with a balanced drive (44 rushing yards-25 passing) that Boldin ended with a short pass from Warner on 3rd-n-goal at the 13 that he caught at the 12 before zigzagging his way through 6 defenders into the end zone. One of the game’s pivotal plays came right after the 2:00 warning with the Rams facing a 3rd-n-inches at Arizona’s 23 when Jackson was not only stuffed for a 2-yard loss but coughed up a fAumble that was recovered by DT Ross Kolodziej. From there the Cards offense moved to the Rams 15 before a 33-yard Rackers FG with 0:35 left put Arizona up 13-10 at intermission. Warner opened the 2nd half with a 34-yard pass to Boldin that led to a 51-yard Rackers FG, his 6th of the year of 50+. The Rams re-claimed the lead on the next drive when Bulger hit Isaac Bruce on a 46-yard TD. On his next series, though, Bulger was forced from the game with an injured shoulder on a sack by Wilson with 4:30 left in the 3rd. Arizona went up 24-17 with 8:17 to play when Warner capped a 10-play drive with a 9-yard pass to rookie TE Adam Bergen, followed by a successful two-point try on a pass to Boldin. The Rams made it 24-20 with a FG but Reggie Swinton’s 90-yard return of the ensuing kickoff led to a 7-yard Warner to Fitzgerald TD. On the next play from scrimmage, QB Jamie Martin fumbled on a sack by LB Darryl Blackstock and Wilson recovered at the Rams 15. That was followed shortly by a 7-yard Arrington run. A late TD pass from Martin to Kevin Curtis provided the game’s final score.

WARNER RACING TO 20,000 Kurt Warner needs 254 passing yards this week in his 76th career game to become the second-fastest player to reach 20,000 yards in NFL history, behind only Dan Marino, who reached 20,000-yards in 74 games. Last week, Philadelphia’s Donovan McNabb hit the 20,000-yard mark; it was his 96th career game. In 75 career games, Warner has passed for 254 yards or more on 40 occasions.

WARNER BACK ON TOP OF NFL

Kurt Warner ranks among the top ten quarterback in the NFL in passer rating, attempts, completions and yards. Warner led the league in completions, completion percentage, passing yards, touchdown passes and passer rating in 2001. Warner’s 96.1 passer rating ranks 9th in the NFL. The top eight quarterbacks all have passer ratings of 100 or better. Warner’s four touchdown passes rank tied for 4th in the league. Three players are tied for the league lead with five TD passes.

WARNER BRINGS IT INSIDE It’s a good thing Cardinals Stadium has a roof, because Kurt Warner is almost unbeatable indoors. Warner improved his career record indoors to 30-8 with a 34-27 win in the inaugural regular season game at Cardinals Stadium over the 49ers. Warner went 30-10 in 40 career games in the Arena Football League, a league played exclusively indoors. From there, Warner went to the St. Louis Rams from 1999-2003 and as the starting quarterback went 19-4 in home games during that span. The Rams also play indoors at the Edward Jones Dome. Although the Cardinals have the option to open the roof or leave it closed and enjoy the air conditioning, if the decision was left up to Warner, the roof would probably stay closed.

LEINART A STRONG #2

Cardinals first round draft pick Matt Leinart made his Cardinals Stadium debut in the preseason game against Denver on 8/31. Leinart was unsigned when the Cards opened the preseason at home against Pittsburgh on August 12. In his first game in the Cardinals new home, Leinart completed 10 of 15 passes for 125 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions for a 114.6 QB rating. Leinart connected with WR Troy Walters for a 17-yard touchdown to give the Cardinals a 13-9 lead with 3:18 remaining in the first half. After missing the first preseason game, Leinart went on to complete 29 of 47 passes (61.7%) for 314 yards, and two touchdowns with no interceptions in the preseason.

SUPER BOWL WIN TO OPPOSING QB This week’s game marks the third time that Kurt Warner will face the team he took to the Super Bowl. Warner becomes the first QB in NFL history to start three games against a team he once led to t a Super Bowl victory. Jeff Hostetler faced the New York Giants three times, making two starts, after leading them to a victory in Super Bowl XXV over the Buffalo Bills in 1991. Jim McMahon faced the Chicago Bears three times, making two starts, following the Bears victory in Super Bowl XX over the New England Patriots.

DOMINATING SINCE 1999

Edgerrin James was selected by the Colts with the fourth-overall pick in the 1999 NFL Draft. Since that time, no other running back has gained as many yards on the ground as James. Since entering the league, James has tallied 9,363 yards. The next closest back is the Jets’ Curtis Martin, who in the time span gained 9,015 yards.

In 98 career games, Edgerrin James has rushed for 100 yards 49 times. If James can rush for a 100-yard game in this week’s contest, he would become only the second player in NFL history to hit 50 in fewer than 100 games.

Since 2003, Seahawks running back Shaun Alexander has carried the ball 25 or more times in 14 games. In only two of those games, including last week’s contest vs. Arizona, has Alexander been held to under 100 yards. Alexander finished the day with 26 carries for 89 yards and one touchdown. The Cardinals defense allowed Alexander to rush for only 42 yards in the second half. The Cards have not allowed a 100-yard rusher in their first two games this season.

FITZGERALD HITS CENTURY MARK

Larry Fitzgerald recorded his eighth 100-yard game as a Cardinal in the season opener vs. San Francisco after pulling in nine receptions for 133 yards against the 49ers. It marked Fitzgerald’s fifth consecutive 100-yard game vs. an NFC West opponent, a streak that ended last week as Fitzgerald caught four passes for 52 yards in Seattle. The last time the Cardinals and Rams met, Fitzgerald recorded nine receptions for 104 yards and a touchdown. In the same game, Anquan Boldin recorded eight receptions for 105 yards and a touchdown. Five of Fitzgerald’s eight 100-yard games have come against NFC West opponents.

FITZGERALD LOOKING TO REPEAT ‘05

Larry Fitzgerald’s 2005 season was one that receivers dream about. The Cardinals 2004 first-round pick out of Pittsburgh was named to the Pro Bowl and set a new franchise record with 103 receptions for 1,409 yards and 10 TDs. The previous mark was set in 2003 by then rookie Anquan Boldin. Boldin also surpassed his previous team record while recording 102 receptions in 2005. Fitzgerald tied Carolina’s Steve Smith for the most receptions in the NFL in 2005. The franchise record number of catches for Fitzgerald led him to his first career Pro Bowl in 2006. Fitzgerald accompanied Cards kicker Neil Rackers who set an NFL record with 40 field goals in 2005. Along with Boldin, the receiving duo combined for 15 100-yard games in 2005, breaking the previous team record of 11 set in 2001. Of Fitzgerald’s 103 receptions, 27 of them came for 20-yards or more, ranking first in the NFL in 2005. Now in his third season with the Cardinals, Fitzgerald has never missed a start in 33 games.

BOLDIN AND FITZGERALD VS. NFC WEST If Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald had their choice, every game would be a divisional game. Against the NFC West, the tandem has combined for 191 receptions and 2,641 yards throughout their career. Boldin has played 16 games, a full season, against the NFC West and has recorded 114 receptions for 1,517 yards and nine touchdowns, numbers that would have guaranteed a trip to Hawaii in 2005. In 14 divisional games, Fitzgerald has recorded 77 receptions for 1,124 yards and eight touchdowns.

BOLDIN CLOSING IN ON 300

In his fourth season with the Cardinals, Anquan Boldin has recorded 269 career receptions, topping the 100-catch mark in two of his first three seasons. Boldin was the fastest player to reach 200 receptions, hitting the mark after only 34 games, two ahead of the previous record holder Lionel Taylor (Denver, 1961). Taylor was also the fastest receiver to record 300 receptions, hitting the mark after 54 games. Boldin averages 6.4 receptions per game. At that rate, he would hit the 300 mark in his 47th career game (at Oakland on October 22). It would also make Boldin the fastest receiver to reach the milestone. Below is a history of Boldin’s receiving milestones: Receptions # of Games Opponent, Date 50 9 @ Pit, 11/9/03 100 16 vs. Min, 12/28/03 150 25 @ Sea, 12/26/04 200 34 @ StL, 11/20/05 250 39 vs. Phi, 12/24/05 300 (projected) 47 @ Oak, 10/22/06

BIG PLAY BRYANT

Cardinals fourth-year wide receiver Bryant Johnson has been a provider of big plays in the first two games this season. In the season opener, Johnson had a 39-yard reception in the first quarter on third-n-10 to set up the Cardinals’ first score of the day. In last week’s game, Johnson caught a 40-yard touchdown pass from Kurt Warner. Johnson has caught three balls for 91 yards in 2006, an average of 30.3 yards.

BOLDIN LOOKS FOR 100 Anquan Boldin has recorded 15 career 100-yard receiving games for the Cardinals and hit the century mark in both games against the Rams last season. In 2005 Boldin recorded five consecutive 100-yard games, beginning with the second meeting of the Rams and Cardinals on November 20. The Cardinals record for 100-yard games in a career is 22, set by Jackie Smith. With his next 100-yard game, Boldin will have the 5th most in team history, tying David Boston with 16. The single-season record for 100-yard games is nine, set by Boston in 2001.

BOLDIN’S REAL LIFE VIDEO GAME In 2005 Anquan Boldin made three video game quality catch and runs for a touchdown, possibly the most remarkable one came against the Rams. Boldin took a short pass on third-and-goal at the St. Louis 12-yard line and by the time he reached the four-yard line, seven Rams had converged on him. Boldin broke through the pile and into the endzone to tie the game at 10. For a diagram of the play, turn to page 89 of the Cardinals 2006 media guide.

YOU CAN’T ALWAYS BE PERFECT Even the best kickers will miss occasionally. In last week’s game in Seattle, Neil Rackers missed two field goals, both from beyond 50 yards. In 2005, Rackers only missed two field goals the entire season. Rackers holds the NFL single-season record for field goals, connecting on 40 of 42 in 2005. His only two misses were from 43 and 54 yards. In the last two seasons, Rackers has missed only 11 attempts. Seven of his missed attempts were from 50 yards or more, including a 64-yard attempt in Buffalo in 2004. Rackers has hit 25 straight field goals from inside 40 yards.

RACKERS SINCE 2004 Overall 65-76 Inside 40 32-34 (25 straight) 50+ 11-18

SPECIAL TEAMS MAKEOVER

One of the top priorities of the 2006 offseason was to improve the Cardinals special teams. Although Neil Rackers kicked for an NFL record 40 field goals, the team’s coverage units allowed three kickoffs and one punt to be returned for a touchdown. Cardinal opponents in 2005 averaged 28.3 yards per return on kickoffs, nearly six yards more than the Cardinals. To address the need on special teams, the Cardinals hired Gary Zauner, one of the most respected special teams coaches in the NFL. In the first two games of the season, the Cardinals have averaged 25.1 yards per kickoff return, up from 22.6 in 2005. The Cards kickoff coverage unit has also improved, allowing 23.3 yards per return, as opposed to 28.3 in 2005. Although the coverage units have undergone change, the Cardinals main special teamers have remained the same. Punter Scott Player enters his 9th season as a Cardinal, the longest tenured player on the team. Longsnapper Nathan Hodel and Rackers also both remain from 2005.

CARDS BEGIN YEAR THREE OF GREEN ERA

Now in his third season with the Cardinals, head coach Dennis Green has revamped the team’s roster and built a foundation for success since taking over in 2004. Injuries ravaged the Cardinals in 2005 as the team placed a league-high 15 players on injured reserve. Of the 15 players placed on IR, at least seven figured to be full time starters. Green, a member of the 100-win club, took over the Cardinals after posting a regular season record of 97-72 as the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings. Green also compiled a 4-8 playoff record, making the NFC Championship game twice. Green and Vice President of Football Operations Rod Graves have worked together to land prize free agents Bertrand Berry, Kurt Warner, and Edgerrin James as well draft stars such as Larry Fitzgerald, Antrel Rolle and Matt Leinart in the first round. Under Green the Cardinals have become a much more competitive team. Since Green’s arrival the team’s margin of defeat has nearly halved while the margin of victory almost tripled. Category 2003 Green’s Avg. Points Scored 225 297.5 TDs Scored 25 28.5 Total Yds/Game 280.6 316.4 Pass Yds/Game 184.9 228.7 Margin of Defeat 20.0 10.9 Margin of Victory 3.5 10.4

RED ZONE RECOVERY

In more than 50% of their trips to the red zone in 2005, the Cardinals had to settle for field goals. No offense to Neil Rackers, but this year the Cards are looking for touchdowns. In 2006, the Cardinals are tied for 1st in the NFL, having converted four of their six possessions in the red zone into touchdowns. The other two went for field goals. The Cards offense is tied with Cleveland and the New York Giants for the lead in the NFL. Each of the three teams has converted 66.7% of their red zone opportunities to touchdowns.

GREEN IN 100-WIN CLUB

Dennis Green joined the group of head coaches with 100 or more wins in 2004 as he recorded his 100th regular season win at Miami. In 2006, the Cardinals will face 100-win coaches on five separate occasions.

Below are their names and hometowns: Player Hometown Mario Bates Tucson Brent Burnstein Glendale Steve Bush Phoenix Ryan Christopherson Glendale Anthony Edwards Casa Grande Jeff Feagles Phoenix John Fina Tucson Frank Garcia Phoenix Bryan Hooks Phoenix Kevin Miniefield Phoenix Vai Sikahema Mesa Danny Villa Nogales

WHAT A WIN MEANS

The Cardinals enter this week’s game at 1-1 and are looking for their first 2-1 start since 1991. The last time the Cardinals won their first two home games was 1987 when they defeated Dallas and New Orleans in their first two home games of the season in St. Louis. The Cards won their season opener this year for the first time since 1999. Since 2000, 47 of the 72 playoff teams and seven of the last 10 Super Bowl winners, won their season opener. Only New England (2001, 2003) and Tampa Bay (2002) lost their opener and went on to hoist the Lombardi Trophy. Eight of last year’s 12 playoff teams won their season opener. Although the last time the Cardinals went to the playoffs, 1998, the team started off 0-2.

FIRST QUARTER COME AROUND

In 2005, the Cardinals scored 27 points in the first quarter and did not score a single touchdown. Against the 49ers, the Cards put up 21 points in the first quarter thanks to three touchdowns. The Cards scored on each of their first three possessions for the first time since 11/23/75 (St. Louis @ NYJ). The last time the Cardinals scored a touchdown on their first possession of a game was 11/2/03 when Jeff Blake connected with Freddie Jones on a one-yard pass. In the 40 games that would follow, the Cardinals recorded 23 punts, eight field goal attempts, four interceptions, four lost fumbles and one turnover on downs.

THE MEN IN BLACK When the Cardinals signed Edgerrin James, not only did they acquire a new look in the backfield, but their shoes received a makeover as well. James lobbied the Cardinals administration to switch to black shoes for their uniform. On the first day of mini camp James was presented with a gift wrapped shoe box containing a pair of black cleats. “If you look good, you feel good,” said James. “And if you feel good, you play good. Now we’re coordinated.” NFL teams must choose one primary color for their shoes, black or white. Since the mid-1970’s the Cardinals had worn white cleats. Including the Cardinals, 17 teams wear black shoes. Prior to this season only one other team in the NFC West wore black shoes, Seattle. The change in shoe style comes one year after the Cardinals made dramatic changes to their uniform and revamped the Cardinal logo.

CARDINALS-RAMS CONNECTIONS

Arizona quarterback Kurt Warner was a two-time NFL Most Valuable Player and the MVP of Super Bowl XXXIV with the Rams from 1998-2003. Warner became one of the most prolific passers in NFL history as he re-wrote the St. Louis record books with MVP seasons in 1999 and 2001. St. Louis head coach Scott Linehan, defensive line coach Brian Baker and Cardinals offensive line coach Steve Loney all coached together with the Minnesota Vikings from 2002-2004 when Loney was the offensive line coach , Linehan was the offensive coordinator and Baker was defensive line coach. Cardinals defensive line coach Larry Brooks and St. Louis offensive coordinator Greg Olson coached together with the Chicago Bears in 2003 when Brooks coached the defensive line and Olson was the quarterbacks coach. Rams Executive Vice President & General Counsel Bob Wallace was the Cardinals’ legal counsel and chief contract negotiator from 1981-91. At 14, he also served as a training camp assistant for the Cards. St. Louis assistant secondary coach Ron Milus was the defensive backs coach for the Cardinals during the 2003 season. Arizona defensive end Bertrand Berry attended training camp with the Rams in 2000, but was released before the regular season St. Louis safety Corey Chavous was originally drafted in the second round (33rd overall) of the 1998 NFL Draft by the Cardinals. Chavous played with the Cardinals from 1998-2001. Arizona kicker Neil Rackers is a St. Louis native where he earned 11 varsity letters in baseball, soccer, and football at Aquinas-Mercy High School. Arizona defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast coached St. Louis linebacker Dexter Coakley from 1997-2002 while the two were with the Dallas Cowboys. St. Louis wide receiver and Phoenix native Shaun McDonald was a standout for Arizona State during the 2000-2002 seasons. His 2,867 career receiving yards ranks second in school history. Arizona safety Adrian Wilson and St. Louis wide receiver Torry Holt were college teammates at N.C. State. Arizona wide receiver Bryant Johnson and St. Louis defensive tackle Jimmy Kennedy were teammates together at Penn State and were both taken in the first round of the 2003 NFL Draft-Johnson (17th overall), Kennedy (12th overall).

PENDERGAST GUIDES CARDINALS D

Clancy Pendergast planted seeds in the Cardinals defense when he was hired in 2004. Entering his third season with the team, Pendergast’s defense is reaping the fruits of his labor. It should come as no surprise that Pendergast had the foresight to see the Cardinals defense from seedling to crop. He was raised on a farm in Glendale, AZ where Cardinals Stadium now sits. The house he grew up in is still standing and his father continues to farm dairy and various crops on the land adjacent to the stadium. Upon his arrival Pendergast instilled a sense of urgency in the Cardinals defense and built the unit on speed. After the addition of Bertrand Berry in free agency, the Cards addressed the need for speed through the draft, picking up linebacker Karlos Dansby (2004), and cornerbacks Antrel Rolle and Eric Green (2005). In his first season with Pendergast, Berry earned his first Pro Bowl appearance and led the NFC in sacks with 14.5 in 2004. In 2005, Pendergast used safety Adrian Wilson in a variety of ways allowing him to record eight sacks, the most ever by a defensive back since sacks became an official statistic in 1982. Prior to his arrival, the Cardinals allowed 344.0 yards per game. In two seasons under Pendergast, the Cards defense has allowed 308 yards per game on average. Injuries depleted the Cardinals defensive line in 2005 and the team took note in both the draft and free agency. The team signed defensive tackle Kendrick Clancy in unrestricted free agency and drafted defensive tackles Gabe Watson and Jonathan Lewis in the fourth and sixth round, respectively. The unit’s rank has also risen since Pendergast took over. In 2003 the Cardinals had the 28th ranked defense in the league. In 2004 the rank rose to 12th and cracked the top 10 in 2005, finishing 8th overall.

ON A ROLLE The Cardinals first round pick in 2005 (8th overall), Antrel Rolle was sidelined for the majority of 2005 following a meniscus tear in his knee. Rolle returned for two games at the tail end of 2005, only to have swelling in his knee sideline him again for the final two games of the year. In the Cardinals third preseason game, Rolle made it clear he has returned as he picked off Bears QB Rex Grossman to thwart the Bears first drive of the third quarter. After minor surgery in the offseason to clean scar tissue in his knee, Rolle returned to training camp in Flagstaff this summer at 100%, and in the first regular season game, led the team with eight tackles.

DOCKETT GETS STARTED EARLY

Darnell Dockett wasted no time introducing himself to Matt Hasselbeck last Sunday. On the Seahawks first snap of the game last week, the Cardinals defensive tackle dropped Hasselbeck for a 10-yard loss. Dockett went on to record a career-high 12 total tackles and eight solo tackles. The sack was the 5th of Dockett’s career.

YO, ADRIAN!

After setting the NFL record for a defensive back with 8.0 sacks in 2005, Adrian Wilson opened quarterback season for the Cardinals by sacking Seahawks passer Matt Hasselbeck twice last week. He also had an interception. Wilson, the first defensive back to lead the Cards in sacks, also recorded an interception in last week’s game. The two sacks gave Wilson eight in his last nine games. In last year’s game in St. Louis, Wilson recorded three sacks including one that knocked Marc Bulger out of the game in the third quarter. Wilson sacked Bulger’s replacement, Jamie Martin and recovered a fourth quarter fumble that was forced by a Darryl Blackstock sack on Martin.

Most Sacks in a Season by a DB 8.0 Adrian Wilson, Arizona 2005 7.0 Dave Duerson, Chicago 1986 6.5 LeRoy Butler, Green Bay 1996 6.0 Shared by many players

HAYES RECORDS FIRST INT

Cardinals linebacker Gerald Hayes recorded his first career interception in last week’s game, picking off Seahawk passer Matt Hasselbeck to thwart a Seahawks drive and give the Cards the last possession of the first half. Hayes returned to action in 2006 after sitting out the entire 2005 season with a knee injury. Hayes has started each of the Cardinals first two games this season. In addition to the interception, Hayes also recorded five solo tackles against the Seahawks.

BERRY RETURNS TO LINE Bertrand Berry has returned to the trenches after missing eight games last season due to a pectoral muscle injury that landed him on injured reserve. A key cog in the defensive line, Berry’s absence allowed offenses to abandon double teams which had created mismatches in the Cardinals favor in the past. Berry recorded 14.5 sacks in 2004 on his way to his first career Pro Bowl. In 2005, Berry had recorded six sacks in eight games before being placed on IR.

Game 1 CARDINALS 34, 49ers 27

September 10, 2006 – Cardinals Stadium – (63,407) The Cardinals played their first week one home game since moving to the Valley and made their regular-season debut in front of a sell-out crowd at the brand-new, state-of-the-art Cardinals Stadium. The team marked the occasion with 7-point win over the visiting 49ers that saw Arizona jump out to an early lead and then withstand a furious last-minute comeback attempt by San Fran. QB Kurt Warner upped his mark as a starter vs. the Niners to 7-0 with a 3-TD, 301-yard performance while RB Edgerrin James rushed 26 times for 73 yards and a TD in his regular season debut for he Cards. WR Larry Fitzgerald led the way at 9-133 receiving. After 49ers rookie TE Vernon Davis capped the game-opening drive with a 31-yard TD catch from Alex Smith, Arizona answered with a 74-yard drive that ended on a 2-yard Warner pass to WR Troy Walters. On the ensuing drive, LB Orlando Huff forced a Frank Gore fumble that Gerald Hayes scooped up and returned to the SF 5. Three plays later, James dove in from a yard away to make it 14-7. San Fran’s next drive ended when Davis fumbled and DT Darnell Dockett recovered at the SF 41. That led to a 6-yard Warner-to-Anquan Boldin TD pass late in the opening quarter. The Cardinals, who went all of 2005 without a first quarter TD, suddenly had scored three. The team hadn’t scored on its first three possessions of a game since 1993 and hadn’t notched three first quarter scores since 1975. Early in the second, Gore scored on a 4-yard run that made it 21-14 but a 36-yard Neil Rackers FG extended the lead to 24-14 at the half. Midway through the third, San Fran CB Walt Harris made a pivotal play when he sacked Warner, forcing a fumble that he recovered at the AZ 7. Two plays later, Gore plowed it in from 2 yards out to make it a 3-point game. The Cards answered though with a long drive (10 plays, 86 yards) that ended when Warner hit TE Adam Bergen with a 7-yard TD pass. Early in the 4th, Niners kicker Joe Nedney missed a 34-yard FG that would have made it 31-24 but came back on the next drive to hit a 22-yarder that was set up by a 60-yard Arnaz Battle punt return and trimmed the AZ lead to 7 with 8:52 to play. From there the Cards embarked upon a 13-play, 68-yard drive that chewed up 7:02 and ended with a 30-yard Rackers FG that made it a two-score game. Out of time outs and down 10, a 46-yard pass from Smith to Antonio Bryant put the Niners at the AZ 26 with :34 left and Nedney kicked a 44-yarder on first down to give them a chance. The chances increased when SF recovered the on-side kick but two long passes into the end zone from the AZ 36 fell incomplete to preserve the win that placed Arizona at 1-0 for the first time since 1999. 49ERS 7 7 7 6 27 CARDINALS 21 3 7 3 34

Game 2 Seahawks 21, CARDINALS 10

September 17, 2006 – Qwest Field – (67,470) Arizona faced a formidable challenge in its opening road game of the year, taking on the defending NFC champions in Seattle. The hosts kept the Cardinals off balance with constant pressure and kept the potent Arizona offense from ever getting untracked. The Seahawks capitalized on big plays early and scored TDs on their first two drives. Meanwhile, Arizona hurt itself with penalties and missed opportunities, falling to 1-1 after the 21-10 defeat. On the game-opening drive, Arizona forced the Seahawks into third-n-long on two occasions but they converted each, first with a 47-yard pass from Matt Hasselbeck to WR Darrell Jackson on 3rd-n-12 and then on 3rd-n-10 thanks to a defensive holding penalty. They eventually capped the 10-play, 80-yard drive with a 2-yard Shaun Alexander run. On their next drive, the Seahawks moved 74 yards in 7 plays and again came up with a pair of big gains. The first was a 17-yard completion to Jackson on 3rd-n-12 and 4 plays later the two connected on a 49-yard TD strike that made it 14-0. Arizona’s next drive reached the Seattle 33 but failed to produce points when Neil Rackers’ 51-yard FG try bounced off the crossbar. After the first two TD drives, the Arizona defense gave up very little, holding Alexander under 100 yards and Hasselbeck under 50%. Following an INT by S Michael Boulware on the final play of the first quarter, Seattle moved to the AZ 11 but Calvin Pace blocked Josh Brown’s 30-yard FG try. Later in the second, the Seahawks advanced to the AZ 30 before LB Gerald Hayes’ diving INT killed the threat. Following the Hayes pick, AZ took over at its own 21 with 2:28 to play. The Cards moved downfield but a sack late in the half led to a hurry-up FG try of 53 yards that Rackers pushed left and the score remained 14-0 at the half. In the second half, the Cardinal defense continued to hold Seattle in check and midway through the third, a 43-yard Rackers FG put Arizona on the board and made it 14-3. That changed early in the fourth when FB Mack Strong ended an 80-yard drive with his 3-yard TD run. Arizona answered on the next series when Kurt Warner hit WR Bryant Johnson on a 40-yard TD pass on 3rd-n-9, trimming the deficit to 21-10 with 11:20 remaining. On the next play from scrimmage, momentum further shifted in Arizona’s favor when SS Adrian Wilson - who had 2.0 sacks earlier in the game - INT’d a Hasselbeck pass near midfield. The Cards advanced inside the 30 but TE Adam Bergen fumbled on the end of a pass play to halt what would be the team’s last best scoring chance with 9:45 to play.
