Coach Green built this offense on putting up 30 to 35 points a game. Sort of like his Vikes in the late '90's. He built this offense on scoring with quick strikes and down field bombs. But what I saw on Monday was a disgrace. Even Edge was a part of a high powered O in Indy. It's amazing that a coach who was supposed to be pretty smart offensively made a very talented group look so college and mediocre.

The run, run, run, run and run some more offense was a slap in the Cards fans faces. Everyone konws that when the Cards play they are an high powered offensive team. Yeah their O-Line is weak so what. They didn't seem to have trouble putting up points last year, and Russ Grimm was supposed to fix the Line anyway. What we saw was a total lack of use in the Cards' main weapons; Boldin and Fitzgerald.

I also don't want to hear about how the 49ers defense was all that great either. They are a solid defense but if you compared tham to the Cards offense in terms of talent the Cardinals win everytime. It's just a matter of how you use the talent. Mike Nolan uses his defensive talent perfect, while Ken Whisenhunt uses his offensive talent poorly.

We'll see if Whisenhunt makes the adjustments to allow this offense to take flight. If he doesn't and the Cards have another loosing season he will be looked at as a failure especially if the Cards aren't around 7-9 or 8-8. This team has the talent and the ability to be a playoff contender. If the Packers can go 8-8 like last year or the Redskins and Bucs can go to the playoffs in '05 then the Cards can make a run at the divisional title.
