Let’s Take a Moment to Overreact to Kyler’s IG Page

[Dan H]

DeAndre Hopkins has a theory about Kyler Murray's social media scrub

At some point after the Pro Bowl on Sunday, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray deleted almost all his posts on Instagram, leading to a dizzying debate about what it could mean. Is he unhappy with the team? Is he sending a message that he wants to get his…

“The only thing I can think was because he wanted to show off some new outfits for the upcoming season and he didn’t want you guys looking at the old ones,” he told Bruce Murray and Rich Gannon."

I'm telling you guys, we're getting new uniforms.

In my view, this whole story is exactly not what, Kyler had to do.

If Kyler wants to win a SB, he has to go the Brady way. He has to buckl up, study as much as possible, go out and get veteran WR,OL and so on to help him win it, and mostly play like a top 10 QB get paid a bit below average.

That is nowadays, with cap parity, a good solution to win. Also tell the others to get a pay cut like him since "we want to win as much as possible" and so on.

For the rest, if he doesn't trust Keim, Kliff, talk with Bidwill and tell him that he signs a 5 year 20 mio $ contract if Keim and Kliff are removed and he gets a better GM and HC.

But what he did now, isn't really what you want. Now he has more Cards fans against him, he didn't show that he has it when it counts (in the later part of the season), it seems he can't win on the big stages, he can't win without Hop, he plays down to the competition. So now he is in a hard place, looking at an unstoppable force that he triggert himself and an unmovable object.

And some here are right, now this whole story is overblown, problematic, trade talks came up and so on. And in my eyes, if now Philly comes, with Minshew 3 #1 round picks and another 1-2 young player, than Bidwill and Keim will listen to this and talk with Kliff.

If Kyler really is somehow the problem on some reads, on some plays and with work ethic, we will see a trade if one is offered.

nah,...18mil per tops

I say the Cards just cut Kyler Murray. Don't even trade him. Just cut him. If he thinks he can get more money or find a team willing to take him then good luck to him SMH...
He's not even close to being as good as the long legacy of the Great Phoenix Cardinals and Arizona Cardinals QB's that have come before him. SMH...

Had to include that this is total sarcasm...

Told you guys. New unis incoming.

 

[AZCrazy]

Removing references to your own team on your social media is S.O.P. for contract negotiation season. These guys try to create as strong an incentive for the team to pay them as possible, by implying an "I'll walk" posture. It happens every year to every team.

So the Cardinals are cutting everyone but Kyler?

That’s hilarious by the cards social team

Wait......Wait........are you trying to tell me that all this speculation about Kyler's Instagram, followed incessantly by adult men on a forum, is going to turn out to be nonsense? What? Are you telling me that Kyler isn't a petulant child who would delete his entire SM to "show the ownership?"

[end sarcasm]

This has been, quite literally, the dumbest thread to have ever existed. It also shows what flimsy pretext some of you have for spending days bashing Kyler's character.

Pretext? Give me a freaking break. The kid has earned criticism on his own the way he handles things poorly with the media and the fans. If there's bashing going on it isn't because fans really have some other reason for hating on him. He created this mess all on his own.

I will laugh hysterically if this is all about new uniforms.

same.. but if that's what it is, Kyler handled this poorly. he's being eviscerated in the media. say something

 

[Weenus O'Baggins]

I get we all have issues with the FO but the nonsense about "We should have started talks with Kyler already and they probably haven't" or "Keim sucks and probably low balled Kyler" is garbage.

Lamar Jackson had a 30-7 record through 3 years. An MVP, 1st team All Pro and Pro Bowl in his 1st 2 seasons and 3 post season trips in his first 3 years. And didn't get a 3rd year extension and didn't cry like a whiny bitch about it.

Kyler Murray is Baker Mayfield through 3 season without the wheels. Here's how Baker compares to Kyler through his first 3 seasons.

Win record practically the same. Yards, barely anything in it. Passer rating, barely anything in it. TD's barely anything in it. Y/A practically the same.

As a passer they are practically identical. The only significant difference is Baker's 43 INT's vs Kyler's 34 and comp %.

And Baker didn't get a 3rd year extension either.

There is nothing "Practically identical" about the completion percentage difference between the two players.

K1 should be like by the way Im removing photos from Instagram so team can surprise you with new uniforms lol

 

[TRW]

His buddy is giving him a “save face” way to explain his action when he gets paid. IMO

he coulda said "stay tuned" or teased it in a way.

rappaport just said on the pat mcafee show "he's definitely not happy about something"

His Til Tok is way more important than IG, these days. It's what they are all moving to now. He fully shows who he's with.

Kyler’s proportions are SO WEIRD.

 

[BritCard]

There is nothing "Practically identical" about the completion percentage difference between the two players.

That's why it says

"The only significant difference is Baker's 43 INT's vs Kyler's 34 and comp %."

 

[DVontel]

That's why it says

"The only significant difference is Baker's 43 INT's vs Kyler's 34 and comp %."

So he’s not Baker Mayfield.

 

[BritCard]

Told you guys. New unis incoming.

Dude. This is just the Cards social media team copying Kyler for lols.

 

[BritCard]

I highly doubt this is anything to do with new Unis.

For one, Hopkins never mentioned new Unis. He said "outfits".

New Unis are a dirty word to our FO it seems and why now? From what I can see every team that's announced new unis in the past decade did so from April to August. Mostly April and May post draft and as camp is starting when fans pre season spending is kicking off.

Teams don't announce new unis in Feb unless you're the Commanders having a whole new brand launch.
