The Arizona Cardinals, going back to early November of 2011 have now gone 9-2 straight up. Who knew?

Maybe the NFC West is much stronger than anyone has expected.

San Francisco, by almost any account, is as good as anyone, if they are not the top team in the NFL. Arizona, as pointed out earlier, is now 9-2 in their last 11. Seattle is 1-1 w/a pounding of Dallas and a tough loss at Arizona in the opener. St Louis isn't far from 2-0, having pushed Detroit to the final minute in their building and rebounding by beating RGIII and Washington.

The division has been rightfully maligned for years but the public is always a step late to recognizing turnarounds.

Even more amazing is during this 11 game, the Cardinals have only won the turnover battle once, and are minus 10 in turnovers for that span. So they haven't been doing it w/luck. No luck and weak QB. How are they doing it? Defense and special teams. I don't think the linemaker has caught up with them.

Now 10-2 in their last 12.
