Preparing for Arizona

So the line on the Bills vs. Cardinals games is 1.  Really…1?  I see this as a battle of upstart teams, the Bills have the youth, the identity and the drive, if they can keep it together they might get a string of four to five years of great football out of this group.

The Cardinals are a team seeking their identity.  The Cardinals are reeling from a point happy game in which the Jets beat them 56 to 35.  They are going to ramp it up a notch in front of the home crowd in order to prevent that from happening.  Yet, considering the St. Louis Rams attempted to hype the game against the Bills, the Bills were able to come from behind, and control the momentum in the second half.  If the Bills play a team game, can weather the storm that Arizona brings in the first half, and take the momentum in the second half, the Bills will dance into the bye week 5-0.

I think the energy the Bills have – being the best team in Buffalo since the 1992 team – trumps everything the Cardinals can bring to the table.  I predict another close game, with the Bills winning in the final minutes of the game again, 31-28.
