Thursday, January 8, 2009 -- On Saturday, January 10, 2009 at 8:15 PM, the Wild-Card winning and NFC West championship Arizona Cardinals will meet the Panthers of Carolina in a NFC Divisional Playoff soccer jerseys
game. The Carolina Panthers, who won the NFC South, are coming off a bye week and should certainly be rested..
Team Stats
Against the Falcons, the Cardinals fielded a decent running game and a fine defense—neither of Soccer jerseys
which was very consistent in the regular season. This is a team that scored an average of 27 PPG and also allowed 27 PPG. Versus Atlanta, the Cards scored 30 but limited QB Matt Ryan’s team to 24. The passing game is still the predominant aspect of the Cardinal offense.
The Panthers averaged 26 PPG in the regular-season and limited opponents to 21 PPG. When these two teams met in NBA Jerseys
the regular season this year, Carolina won 27- 23, almost notching its averages exactly. This is primarily a ground attack team.
Personnel
It all starts and ends with veteran QB Kurt Warner. In the Wild-Card game, Warner was solid, hitting 59% of NBA jerseys his throws and tossing two touchdowns and one interception. Wide receivers Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin had one score each. There’s concern in this contest as Boldin may not play due to injury. Edgerrin James helped establish the ground game versus Atlanta and the Card “D” showed up and played well.
Panther QB Jake Delhomme had a good season after coming off of Tommy John surgery. He’s not great but he is stable and productive. He’ll be passing to Ugg Boots
Steve Smith and Mushin Muhammad; between them, they had 11 touchdown grabs and over 2,300 yards. Three-year vet DeAngelo Williams, with 18 rushing TDs, is a dynamic force. The defense must stop Warner.
Keys to the Game
Arizona

Carolina
