A new beginning doesn’t necessarily bring a new result and yet that’s exactly what the Cardinals will be counting on when they open their 31st season in Arizona on Sunday against the Washington Redskins.
Not only do they have a new head coach in Steve Wilks and a new starting quarterback in Sam Bradford, but the Cardinals will also be unveiling a new 4-3 defense under new coordinator Al Holcomb, introducing a new power running game featuring David Johnson under new coordinator Mike McCoy and they’ll be playing their first home game in their friendly confines since they changed its name to State Farm Stadium.
