Why the heck would Edgerrin James sign... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

...with one of the worst teams in the history of the NFL, the Arizona Cardinals? I understand it was a lot of money, but couldn't he get money elsewhere and still be a contender? I hope James is going to enjoy rushing for over 1,000 yards and have it not mean a thing. lol

Its a great question we ALL would like to know. lol

Mr. Television · 03-13-2006, 12:23 AM

I can't believe he did that. We'll never hear of him again. The Cardinals are the worst run NFL franchise in the history of the NFL.

It's all about the Benjamins guys. If you were offered $50 million, you'd be an Arizona Cardinal too.

He's going to be a millionaire where ever he signs though. You'd think he'd want to win a championship too.

Exactly, free agency just started, it wasn't like he was shopping himself around for a couple of weeks. Maybe Arizona did give him the most money, but doesn't winning a Super Bowl mean anything to him? His career is over.

His reasons were the Cardinals having the #1 passing game in the NFL last year, and the worst rushing game. Their offense is going to be top notch this year. Dennis Green also runs the same offense that Dungy does with Indy.

Their defense is a whole other story.

And with a top-caliber RB, and the pass-game already well-entrenched this now allows Arizona to focus solely the rest of the postseason on finding quality defensive players.

They are going to need a QB because Kurt Warner isn't the answer.

I see it's no longer about the rings, it's all about the monay-lol

Nobody did.

What is fact is that the Cards have won exactly one playoff game since 1947. It sickens me that the Cowboys were the team they beat.

Yeah. Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin are two of the more talented receivers in the game.

Warner is no long-term answer by any means, but I think he can get the job done for at least next year.
