seattle kings county washington deaths 1910 - 1920

Arizona vs. Buffalo
Cardinals - 1 vs Bills

While most people look forward to exiting the desert, the Arizona Cardinals are looking forward to returning to it. It has been a long time since the Cardinals have been at the University of Phoenix Stadium and they have certainly taken their lumps along the way.

In Week 3, the Cardinals ( 2 - 2 ) were riding high after their victories over San Francisco and Miami to start out the year. Most people assumed that the Cardinals would continue their assault and start the season 3 - 0 for the first time since they were in St. Louis. Of course, the Cardinals being the Cardinals, this did not happen. They ran into a Washington Redskins team with a large chip on their shoulder and ran into their first loss. Coach Ken Whisenhunt took the unorthodox approach of remaining on the East Coast following the Washington loss because of last Sunday ' s matchup against the New York Jets in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Saving a cross country trip home and back again would make sense, especially in these economically depressed times, but apparently Whisenhunt ' s players did not appreciate the gesture as they allowed an amazing 6 touchdown passes to a previously uninspired Brett Favre in a 56 - 35 loss to the Jets.
