For a rookie, especially our top Draft pick and the player who is supposed to replace D-Rob as the starter at one of the all-important CB positions, this game is very important but still it's just preseason. However I've got to wonder what Jackson would do if this was the season opener against Peyton/Colts in Reliant ? He might need to make a different decision ?

He has had a hammy issue this week, so I am guessing he would have been limited in the game. So not a huge deal.

Go here for a 2-page, printer-ready list of the roster sorted by jersey number. Comes in handy when keeping up with the new guys.....

I did a Madden 11 sim of this pre season game and we won 24-17. The first group defense did give up a long TD pass on the Cards' first drive though. Let's see what happens.

It's a funeral. I wouldn't expect him to play.

"gameday thread" are two beautiful words!

Here's a list of things to watch tonight with some attention focused on the Cardinals' personnel and their strengths/weaknesses:

Well, this is odd.

On the Time Warner System in Austin, the Texans-Cardinals game is not going to be available on the basic tier, but it is available on the HD tier on Channel 1525. Apparently, KXAN has the rights to the game but they are not showing it instead of the regular Saturday night programming on their main channel. Instead, they are showing it on one of their secondary HD channels.

I suspect, if you have one of those boxes to convert over-the-air HD signals, you can also get it that way. I have no idea about satellite customers but I would suggest you look in the extra channels for local stations. It appears NFL Network will have a replay of the game in the wee hours of Monday morning.

San Antonio viewers will find the game on KMYS, Channel 35.
