For this weeks blog post I will be talking about my favorite professional football team the Arizona Cardinals. A quick background on the Arizona Cardinals; they are the oldest football club dating back to 1898 and are located in Glendale, Arizona. The Cardinals are in the NFC West inside the NFC (one of two football conferences). In the NFL there are 16 teams per conference, and through a postseason or playoff one team from each conference compete for the Lombardi Trophy in the Super Bowl. Eligibility for the postseason is determined by the teams record in the regular season. Sadly the Cardinals have never won a Super Bowl trophy. And to be honest I dont know if we will win a trophy for a while because our quarterback is 35 years old, isn't fast and has a relatively strong throwing arm. We have been improving our team vastly through the annual NFL draft, improving on both sides of the ball every year. Our biggest strength- I would say- is our head coach Bruce Arians beacause he led our team all the way to the Wildcard Game on alternating 3rd string quarterbacks in addition to winning Coach of the Year for the 2014-2015 season. At the time of this blog the Cardinals' record is 4-2. This Monday night we are playing against the Baltimore Ravens. Hopefully then we can figure out a solution to our problems on both sides of the ball.
