But to answer Sun Tzu's question-The Cardinals blitz probably more than any team in the NFL, and that puts tremendous pressure on the opponent QB's, RB's and OL. Which causes errors and bad plays from them but it also causes big plays against the defense too. The Cards also have a tremendous rush defense, as the Cowboys just found out-they have not allowed a 100 yard rusher all season. And as much as I bemoan the secondary-they do have playmakers there-and they usually get at least one big play/difference maker a game.
Carson Palmer has been incredibly good with his decision making-only two INT's and so many weapons to throw to. And with Ellington they actually have a legitimate running attack for the first time in many years. Coach Arians is also part magician at this point I think.
