These days, it's called recency bias, the tendency to believe whatever is happening now is better, or worse, than anything that’s come before.
Not that long ago, it was called having a bad memory.
Either way, it applies to the 2018 Cardinals, whose 3-10 record has prompted the question: Is this the franchise’s worst team since moving to Arizona in 1988?
It’s impossible to say with three weeks left in the season, but this team is in the running for the dubious honor.
Unfortunately for the Cardinals, there is stiff competition. This is the 16th time in the past 31 years the team has lost at least 10 games in a season, so losing is nothing new for the franchise.
