Lots of reasons. McBride is just difficult to cover, LB's and Safeties can't really cover him. MHJ is still on the way up in the NFL and as we saw repeatedly last year he goes against the best CB's and they frankly didn't have a ton of problems covering him. He'll be better this year and hopefully so will Kyler.

Will say again we need someone to take the top off deep to really open this offense up. Really hoping someone cuts a guy who can really fly but seems unlikely.

I guess we have to hope Jones or Weaver fills that role.
Or, we line Benson up in the slot then jet motion him to the opposite side, get him a moment uncovered so he can hit that 4.3
That'll make the defense respect the deep threat

Yeah, no one, from the OC to the QB, is doing anything to ease the pressure off in coverage. Add to that MHJ's own struggles, and it's a bad combo. Plenty of blame to go all around.

So what are the goals for tonight? Guess we're deciding on the last few roster spots.

Tune going to stink up the field for three + quarters? That's hard to watch. :)

Will try to focus on some of the defensive guys I guess.

wow... I bet we beat the crap out of the saints.
its gonna be Rattler... they already know he is shot...they will take some time to develop the other guy a bit in hopes he can be coached up before getting his confidence destroyed...but a starting NFL defense will ruin Shough before he gets a chance to learn

Now guys, you forgot the Cardinals rule about backup QBs

They always have the best game of their career against us

Can the D stop this terrible streak?
