Most of you (if not all) probably watched the Cardinals broadcast with Dave Pasch and Ron Wolfley. I have the NFL Gamepass Europe (since I live in Europe) which means that I have to watch the broadcast from the home team. So you guys most likely have some inside info and perspective that I don’t. Sorry in advance about that.
1 – Man, the Saints' starting offensive line is extraordinary. They completely dominated the Cardinals’ first team defense. In the words of Steve Wilks: Starts up front! Starts up front!
2 – Nobody doubts that Sam Bradford is the starting quarterback presently, right?
3 – Nobody doubts that Josh Rosen is a great prospect for the future, right?
4 – Did you see the blocking from Mason Cole? I really believe in him. Yeah, he was involved in a couple of (what looked like) communication issues, but I don’t think that’s really blocking. That’s assignment- and cohesion stuff.
5 – Did Gerald Hodges just call out the defensive plays all the time he was on the field?
6 – Maybe it’s down to Christian Kirk and Chad Williams for those secondary receiver spots now. I thought both stepped up, while Greg Little did not do much other than making a good block in the third quarter, and Brice Butler didn’t even play. J. J. Nelson did get an important pass interference call against him, but I thought it encapsulated perfectly what he brings on the field: he can go deep but he won’t catch the ball.
7 – I doubt that safey Zeke Turner will make the final cut, but he seems to always be around the ball.
8 – Good thing the Cardinals is such a disciplined team that doesn’t get a lot of penalties. Come on, man!
9 – I really like cornerback Deatrick Nichols. I hope he makes the team.
10 – Well, I must say that Cap Capi is fun to watch. Superstar against third stringers. I would very much like to see him against better players.
