Kyler did OK (until he repeatedly lost his footing in the 2H).

It was our defense that allowed Kyle Allen to look All Pro...and their defense that put pressure on Murray.

Kyler will continue on an upward flight path marred by an occasional speed bump, but will learn from his mistakes and emerge successful.

Meanwhile young guys like Allen or Jones will look better than Kyler on some occasions.

PS Will someone (with time on their hands) scan the League rosters and tally up the number of QB's namd "Kyle"?

KM was the 2nd-best QB on the field today. Heck, KM was the second-best former Texas A&M QB on the field today :(

Not giving up on him, but certainly not feeling a lot of confidence in him either. The dude sacks HIMSELF.
I am going to go ahead and say he was more like the 4th best. I think the backups are better.

I will admit that I do not feel like Kyler is the type of guy who will hang around the league if it doesn't work in AZ. Scariest part, and this probably should be on the dark-side thread, is that we are getting to the point where Kyler would only have to pay back 12 mil of his signing bonus if he bailed to baseball after this year and only 6 mil the year after. I apologize for this extreme negative mindset but being a Cardinals fan has made me mentally prepare for these types of scenarios.

I watched Larry Fitzgerald win us a Super Bowl...until he didn't. I have watched the Cardinals snatch defeat from the jaws of victory more times than I can count. I have seen us absolutely screw up the easiest things in the most epic ways possible. I am pretty sure there is a callused part of my heart that no amount of winning will ever rejuvenate.

Kyler is never walking away from an extension if it’s on the table and as long as Keim is the GM it will always be on the table.
