BucD+ 648 Posted November 8, 2011 Per PFT: Posted by Michael David Smith on November 8, 2011, 12:54 PM EST The Cardinals won without Kevin Kolb last week. They may need to do it again this week. Kolb is likely to be sidelined for Sunday’s game at Philadelphia, as his sprained foot and turf toe are still limiting his movement too severely for him to play against his former team, NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora reports. John Skelton is expected to practice with the Cardinals’ first-string offense this week, and he’ll likely get the start for the second straight game. That may not be a bad thing for the Cardinals: Skelton went 20-of-35 for 222 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals’ win over the Rams, with an 85.7 passer rating for the game. That’s better than the 77.8 rating Kolb has this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteVo+ 3,702 Posted November 8, 2011 Despite being 3-5, losing to the Bears didn't concern me too much: they seem to be that team we just can't beat, and we simply got outplayed. If we get outplayed or outcoached by the Cardinals, then I'll be worried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BucD+ 648 Posted November 10, 2011 Per PFT: Kolb says toe is improving, but he still hasn’t practicedPosted by Mike Florio on November 10, 2011, 8:29 AM EST Cardinals quarterback Kevin Kolb is preparing to face the Eagles for the first time in his career, but Kolb may not be able to play. Kolb didn’t practice on Wednesday due to turf toe, an injury he sustained 11 days ago against the Ravens. “It’s been a lot better the last two days,” Kolb said Wednesday, via PhillySportsDaily.com. “Little extra motivation, obviously. We’ve pushed it hard. Trying to get back out on the practice field — wasn’t able to practice today, we’ll see tomorrow morning where it’s at, how it responds. We’ve been really pushing the limit, trying to get me back out there as soon as possible.” John Skelton played in Week Nine for Kolb, presiding over a victory and generating a passer rating of 85.7. He’ll get another start if Kolb can’t go. Regardless of whether the Fordham grad plays for the former Eagle, this one seems to be on track for a Cornell-Hofstra-style slaughter.

CARDINAL 205 Posted November 10, 2011 We will win this game, as a matter of fact we will dominate this game. Fitz will come alive and Skelton will play very well. Cardinal NationFTW :beerchug2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

badgers 380 Posted November 13, 2011 Alright, gentlemen. The Dream Team is done. Take 'em out back and put 'em down... I was at BWW for this game so I actually watched it (fuck yeah Fitzgerald got me 26 points) and I can't say it was 100% on the Eagles coaches this time like it has been. Poor execution on the field and the Eagles players just look like they aren't interested in winning anymore. The offense was supposed to be the bright side of this team and they can't capitalize on turnovers or, even worse, OUTSCORE JOHN SKELTON. 1 of their 2 TD was a pick-six. When you are out-coached, and out-played by the Cardinals at home, your problems are too severe to fix them in time for the postseason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
