That's followed by the season finale at Seattle.Prospects do not seem good. Arizona could well be headed to a 3-13 season, matching the Cardinals' worst since the franchise moved from St. Louis 30 years ago.With a dissatisfied fan base and a team showing little or no improvement through the season, team President Michael Bidwill ?who takes great pride in making the franchise relevant after years of losing ?could decide that he can't afford to give Wilks a second season to prove his worth."I really don't listen to the outside noise," Wilks said Monday of speculation about his job status.

"I don't know about humbling. I didn't really have any expectations coming in. I just wanted to get better every day and play good football. I have good days. I have bad days. I'd like to be a little more consistent on the good days. This was a step back, and we'll climb over the hurdle like we always do."This Cardinals team has crashed into hurdles more often than cleared them.Arizona has eight losses of at least 10 points and four by at least 20. No other team in the NFL has that record of futility.The offense has statistically been the worst in the NFL, but the defense hasn't been so great either.
