Arizona Cardinals reflect on disappointing 1997 season as opener approaches

With 97 days until the Arizona Cardinals' season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers on September 13, the team recalls its struggles from the 1997 season. That year marked the beginning of the Jake Plummer era, but the Cardinals finished with a disappointing 4-12 record, ranking 25th in both offense and defense. Plummer started midseason and recorded noteworthy stats, finishing with 2,203 passing yards, 15 touchdowns, and leading the team in various categories. As the team prepares for the upcoming season, the focus will be on improving from past performances.
