OT: Kyler Murray Debacle Thread

[Dan H]

Did you know a "little girl" struck out Babe Ruth Lou Gehrig in a exhibition, 17 year old Jackie Mitchell. Don't be sexist, it's gross.

Ehh ... nuance. It's a thing.

Of all the strange baseball exploits of the Depression era, none was more surprising than Jackie Mitchell’s supposed feat

For the first time in his football life, abject failure is staring K1 right in the face.

I'd say the embarrassing loss to the Rams in the playoffs had to be his first abject failure that didn't just stare him in the face, it punched his lights out!

and then he came back the next season, and was pretty bad after that humiliation before tearing up his knee.

It’s K1s fault

Possibly. But he could have rationalized that as a team loss.

Here, we’re talking about him losing his starting job to a journeyman back up player.

If that happens, there will be no rationalizing that away. There will be no laying that at the feet of his teammates.

I'm saying he’s a couple of interceptions away from getting benched for the first time in his life.

How will he respond to that kind of pressure?

I think you need to re-watch that game... Kyler literally tapped-out. Worse, when the heart of the team got knocked out stone-cold while still giving it all, even when the game was lost, Kyler sat alone on the bench while the rest of the team went to the side of our fallen hero (Budda).

Yea, the team lost... but it was far from a team loss.

What's this got to do with anything?

Did our defense make Kyler play bad? Did it make him throw under 6 YPA or dance around and throw ridiculous grounding penalties?

Just for context though this year our defensive EPA is just a tad behind the Eagles, Bucs and Chiefs. Better than Green Bay. Better than the Chargers, Steelers and Bills.

Kyle is a Cardinal hating, K1 sycophant. I have actually wondered if you're his burner.

 

[BritCard]

Well, considering he's one of the least clutch QB's in the league I'd imagine not terribly well.

Men said she didn't, she said she did. Sexism wins again! Still doesn't make sexism any less gross.

[Proteus]

So when might Murray be benched if he keeps on checking the ball down and the offense is sputtering like it did most of the time before he was out with an injury?

 

[some dumb guy]

Men said she didn't, she said she did. Sexism wins again! Still doesn't make sexism any less gross.

saying he throws like a girl is actually a derogatory idiom
sexism is saying women are not equal to men
just ballparking the definitions but I think your point is understood

THAT'S IT!! 602 SAID IT........END OF THREAD.

Meet you all at the bar....he's buying.....woo woo

Should Kyler Murray start for the Arizona Cardinals in their Monday Night Football meeting vs. Cowboys?

Luke Lapinski and guest host Jody Jackson debate if Kyler Murray should be the starting quarterback when the Arizona Cardinals take on the Dallas Cowboys in next week's Monday Night Football matchup.

Yes it's Kyler's fault.

the 2025 season, Jacoby Brissett has 599 passing yards, 4 passing touchdowns, and 1 interception, with a completion percentage of 64.2%. He has also recorded 67 rushing yards on 24 attempts and has a passer rating of 97.7.

 

[GeorgiaCard88]

I think if Kyler, fresh off a two week bye against a terrible defense looks sub par again on the national stage- that’s it, no coming back from that

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

kyler has no choice now - he either stands in the pocket or he falls into the quality back up qb category (where he'd be just under brissett)

kyler better make a point of taking hits against dallas - while delivering the ball - can he do it? the answer is not at all but we'll still trot him on out there acting like he's the better option

ddoggstradomis could be right - murray just might get benched infront of his friends and family - damn that would some humiliating ish

 

[602 Native]

Anyone but K1

Yall Kyler has to play like a middle-third QB or HE will be the bridge to the next guy.

We cannot cut him; we can only trade him.

It would be funny though if the Rams win the Super Bowl, Stafford retires, McVay trades the 64th pick for Kyler and turns him into a superstar

 

[Shane]

McVay trades the 64th pick for Kyler and turns him into a superstar

Never happen. Hes no superstar. Shellshocked and scared.

 

[DVontel]

I mean if that did happen, I wonder what would be the point of continuing to root for this franchise owned by Bidwill

I already don’t know what the point is other than my heart won’t let me switch…. And I absolutely hate it for that.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I mean, even if it didn’t, there’s really no point of continuing to root for this franchise owned by Bidwill… but this is an addiction, not a choice!

Its almost masochistic with me. Before Phx had a franchise, I LOVED the Steve DeBerg led Patriots, The Jim Zorn Seahawks, and at the time perpetually bad Washington Redskins. I just love a good kick to the groin, apparently.

I was going to comment but didn't want to be mean to @Crimson Warrior.
