Ah, 2011. I remember it like it was just last year. The powerfully frisky Cardinals clawed and pecked their way to 8-8 with a 7-2 finish. They beat the Eagles in Philly. They beat the Cowboys.

Michael Irvin Brought Out The PDA For Bills Running Back C.J. Spiller

Ben Roethlisberger Criticizes Todd Haley's Offense, Public Gleefully Awaits Vesuvian-Level Meltdown
The Todd Haley and Ben Roethlisberger relationship did not get off to the best of starts.
