Here in Philadelphia, we’re all pumped up for Sunday’s game against the Eagles.

Long gone are the memories of a team that at one point was 5-5-1.

That’s why I always like to check on the national writers for their take on the game. Here’s a hint: This does not seem like a lock. Writers are evenly split. Here’s a look at who’s picking whom:

Jay Novaceck, MSNBC: Cardinals
Dave Goldberg, Associated Press: Eagles

You might want to skip over Sports Illustrated.com. Their NFL writer, Adam Duerson, likes the Cardinals, big time. He sees them laying a 30-014 whipping on the Birds. Ouch!

Here’s how the panel at CBS Sports.com sees the game:
The Harmon Forecast: Cardinals
Pete Prisco: Cardinals
Clark Judge: Eagles
Peter Madden: Eagles
Dave Richard: Eagles

Here’s the rundown from the gang at ESPN.com:
Mike Ditka: Eagles
Keyshawn Johnson: Cardinals
Cris Carter: Cardinals
Tom Jackson: Eagles

Me? You’ll have to wait until tomorrow for “The Dreaded Saturday Eagles Pick.”
