Re: Don't look now but
I think if the hawks did not want to win this game, with the cardinals, all they would have to do is sit Wilson & other starters. And you're right. Carroll's ego would not allow him to do that.

Also our money play... the screen out of the backfield, has been defended very well in the past two games.
Right now after losing three out of four games, and splitting out last ten, arguably we are not a strong playoff team, and I don't see how this team can go on the road and get a win even in Philly, Dallas, or whichever team from the central you want to throw in there. |
