The Arizona Cardinals need any help they can get to have a chance at staying competitive with the Philadelphia Eagles. They got some good news Sunday morning with word coming from Philly that Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson has been suspended for the game because he missed a team meeting on Saturday.
