2016 NFL playoffs: Arizona Cardinals should have 'high anticipation,' not 'high anxiety'

The Arizona Cardinals are in the postseason once again. We almost forget they were a playoff team a season ago, but that is because it was very forgettable when they played, starting Ryan Lindley and finishing the game with a record low for yards in a game.

This year is different. Expectations are higher and the team, for the most part, does not have players with experience with a deep playoff run.

Head coach Bruce Arians explained how the playoffs feel different and the mentality his players -- particularly the young ones -- need to be prepared for the gravity of the games.
