Cardinals fans title hopes increased after a 13-3 season last year which ended with them in the NFC Championship Game, and a 27-point jump in these standings soon followed. But their 34 wins in three years had more to do with coach Bruce Arians than anything else.Whats goodThere are few offensive minds in the history of the NFL that are or were as good as that of Cardinals coach Bruce Arians -- so no surprise that he was named the fourth-best coach in all of sports, tied with Pete Carroll and behind only Bill Belichick among NFL coaches. He has become known as a quarterback whisperer for his work with Peyton Manning, Ben Roethlisberger and Andrew Luck. But where he has worked his true magic is with Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer, who had the best season of his career in 2015 at age 35 (which helped Arizonas players ranking jump to 10th). Arians took over a franchise that was mired in mediocrity and turned it into one of the leagues best while leading the Cardinals to the NFC title game in his third season.Whats badThough this generation of Cardinals fans has the highest of hopes, this franchise still hasnt won a title, reflected by a Title Track ranking of 43, Arizonas lowest score. The closest Arizona has come to a championship was a berth in Super Bowl XLIII, where it lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers (on a last-minute play called by none other than Arians). Arizona came within a game of reaching the Super Bowl a year ago, and it has the roster to get that far again, despite a 1-3 start to 2016. As long as Arians is at the helm, the Cardinals title drought has a good chance of coming to an end.Whats newOver the last two years, the Cardinals ranking in fan relations ranking has improved from 85th place to eighth. Theyre clearly doing something right. The Cardinals digital outreach has increased dramatically over the last few years, and fans rated the team second-best in the NFL in engaging with the fan base on social media. Holding training camp at University of Phoenix Stadium has also been a major factor. It allows the average fan to attend training camp in Glendale instead of driving to Flagstaff, and adds post-practice autograph sessions to boot.Next: Seattle Seahawks?| Full rankingsKurt Warner Womens Jersey .

Patrick Peterson Cardinals Jersey .Y. -- Canadas Kaillie Humphries and Heather Moyse have another World Cup gold medal after winning the two-women bobsled race on Saturday in Lake Placid, N.Friday night was another case of close but not close enough for Western Sydney, held to a 1-1 A-League draw by Brisbane thanks to their own wastefulness and Michael Theos safe hands.If A-League points were awarded for promise, then the Wanderers wouldnt still be seventh on the table, with a fifth draw in eight games and yet to triumph at Spotless Stadium in four.Their second half at their temporary home ground, led by marquee playmaker Nicolas Martinez, would likely rate as their strongest yet except for a late 10-minute spell from Brisbane.Yet the Roar, despite ceding copious amounts of territory and possession, claimed a valuable point to remain third, courtesy of striker-in-the-headlines Jamie Maclaren.Maclaren put this weeks contractual impasse to one side to earn and then convert a first-half penalty, before Japanese import Jumpei Kusukami settled the score on 56 minutes with his first A-League goal off a teasing Jack Clisby volley.But despite the abundant chances - the Wanderers had 18 shots to the Roars seven - this contest was far removed from the goal-happy affair of last seasons epic 5-4 extra-time thriller.Holding the lions share of the ball and territory, the hosts again showed elements of real quality but were regularly let down by one too many a touch or misplaced pass.Gilt-edged chances came and went for Kerem Bulut and Brendon Santalab among others, while Martinez, who played raider alongside Mitch Nichols, drew a superb save from a busy Theo.ddddddddddddAt the other end, No.2 gloveman Jerrad Tyson pressed his case as Andrew Redmaynes replacement by denying Brett Holman with skill.Moments later, he botched it by lunging at Maclaren in the box, an error of judgement that was perhaps a symptom of nearly three years on the sidelines.Maclaren capitalised, sending Tyson the wrong way from the spot.They could have crumbled, but Tony Popovics men sprang into life after the break.Scott Neville was a blistering outlet on the right flank but, unsurprisingly, Martinez orchestrated the equaliser, playing an intelligent ball into the path of an onrushing Clisby, whose subsequent cross presented a straightforward tap-in for Jumpei.Popovic couldnt help but wonder how a second win of the campaign had evaded his side.Weve wondered that a few times this year - more than a few - but thats football, he said.Again, we showed how good we are without the result.Roar coach John Aloisi admitted there was a lot left wanting from his teams performance.We ended up inviting pressure by sitting so deep, Aloisi said.It wasnt our plan but the Wanderers pinned us back and we couldnt get out, then - when we did get the ball - we didnt keep it for long enough.But when youre not playing well, you need to somehow grind out a result, and we did do that so thats a positive.
