All talk. The Cardinals did not practice in the snow this week. On top of lack of preparation, they didn't even play in the snow, how do you get prepped for this kind of situation if you don't practice in it. How are we going to play in the cold in the playoffs if we don't practice in it?

put the snow aside.

This is a repeat of last week against the Vikings at home.

We aren't even prepared to play football, let alone factor in weather conditions.

Coaching is more responsible for things like clock management, late game situational calls, etc...getting housed by 40 is all on the players, IMHO.

:Cards logo: I dont understand why the cards didnt go to flagstaff to practice before the Patriots game if they where that bothered with footing and the cold,, there is plenty of snow and cold up here???

Preparation falls both on coaches and the players.

I remember reading an article about the Colts prior to their Super Bowl win, about how when the main focus during practice time was on the defense, that Manning and Saturday would go off to the side where Manning had a bucket with some footballs in it so that they could practice snapping wet/slick footballs since it could and did rain in South Florida. Grossman/Kreutz flubbed a few snaps while Manning and Saturday were flawless.

During the playoffs it can come down to the little things, and I don't know if we do the little things very well.
