at Carolina Panthers

People might call me crazy for saying this but I look forward to this game next season. The last two trips into Charlotte have been anything but kind to the Cardinals.  However those were both playoff games.  There shouldn’t be as much pressure in this regular-season tilt.

It is a chance for Carson Palmer to redeem himself and also gives the Cardinals a chance to prove to doubters that they belong in the same class as the Panthers.  The game still won’t be easy by any stretch as the cast of characters will still basically be the same for both teams.

This game also likely gains some national attention.  I don’t know if it hits Sunday Night Football or not but I think it is Monday Night Football worthy or a national FOX game of the week. Oh, I’m sorry, “America’s Game of the Week”.
