    Anyone use NFL Game Pass?

    I've been a DirecTV and Sunday ticket subscriber for 15 or so years. I've got a couple of very active teens in the house, which means the last few years, I've had to DVR the Cardinal games, and watch them later in the day, so I can attend kids activities. Seems I should be able to save a few...

    Gresham Fight after the Game.

    Anyone at the game catch Gresham and some Jags player [Malik Jackson-DT] fighting after the game ended? Don't know what it was about, but they were definitely throwing haymakers. It'd be just like Gresham to get himself suspended for a key matchup with the Rams.

    Snap Counts: Colts Game

    A few notes I spotted while tracking week 2 snap counts: Offense: 1. QB - Palmer obviously was on the field for all 66 plays this week, nine fewer than last week. 2. OL - the five "starters" played in all snaps. In addition, Will Holden took part in 23% of offensive snaps, ostensibly as a...

    AZ Cards Snap Counts - Week 1

    Wanted to get this out yesterday but work life has been busy. It's a bit early to spot any trends, but a few notes that struck me: Offense - 75 plays 1. OLine: Of course everyone know that Humphries only played in 8 snaps, and was spelled by J.Wetzel. What I don't recall seeing was Iupati...

    Week 3 Snap Counts: Buffalo

    Offense: 1. On the OLine, Mathis was inactive for this game, Watford took all 82 of his snaps. 2. There should be no doubt that this is now David Johnson's team. He was on the field for 79 of 82 offensive plays. CJ and Andre combined for only 4 plays. I am stunned at CJ's lack of...

    Week 2 Snap Counts

    Offense: 66 Plays 1. Some of the spread are a bit off this week as we played a few back-ups late in the game. Most notably, Stanton was in for 12 plays, along with a few plays by Boehm & and Wetzel. Though it would be awesome to have all backups get lots of play-time due to blow-out...

    Week 1 Snap Counts

    Hard to gleam much from week 1, but here is my analysis of week 1 player snap-counts. Offense: 1. No surprises on OL. We all know that Watford spelled Mathis due to injury. Mathis played 29 of 61 snaps. I seem to recall he came back into the game, but I don't recall if he finished it...

    League Pass vs Sunday Ticket

    Does anyone use League pass to watch Cardinal games? Seems like I'd have to watch the games on delay, vs live, which I usually have to do anyway because of my kids schedules. Sunday Ticket is really the only reason I'm still with DirecTV. I'm thinking of picking up an HD antenna along with...

    2016 Starters

    Well, time to start looking for the next season. Pass Rush was our achilles heel all year, so that has to be priority #1. As for the rest of our starters, this is where I see us heading into camp: I think our offense is close. Palmer, DG, the left side of the OL, and our big three WR's are...

    Snap Counts: 49ers eddition

    Late on doing this as it's been a busy work week... Per usual, these are some of the items I found interesting. 1. Obviously Ellington and CJ were limited on touches due to injury. DJ steps in to pick up the slack with his most active day since the last Rams game. Kulabafi (sp?) even...

    Snap Counts: Bengals edition

    We ran 61 plays on Offense and 76 on Defense, with Cinci holding a very modest edget in TOP, 31:15 - 28:45. Some insight I noticed from snap-count charts: 1. RB rotation has been set for several weeks now. CJ gets a little more than half of the carries, with Ellington holding firm at about...

    AZ Cardinals Snap Counts vs Seattle

    Offense and Defense ran similar number of plays against Seattle as they did against the Browns, 89 for the O and 61 for the D. Some items that I found interesting: 1. John Brown was on the field for 59 of 89 plays. I think this may have been his most invisible game of his young career...

    Snap Counts: Week 7

    Seems players have settled into their roles at this point in the season. Really the only fluctuations noted from this weeks snap-counts are: 1. Both Niklas and Gresham split the plays that would normally gone to Fells, as both players put in their heaviest workload this season. 2...

    Week 6 Snap Counts: Pittsburgh edition

    72 plays on Offense 57 plays on Defense 1. Ellington only 9 plays. Only 4 fewer than he saw in Detroit, despite 26 additional plays run. It's actually David Johnson that got the biggest increase in workload this week. I'd rather see Ellington get the most snaps. IMO, he is the best...

    BA Halftime message

    If it's in here on another thread, I'm sorry for duplicating; but, I thought this was awesome. I know most of you were at the game and didn't see the broadcast, but they asked BA what he told the team at half time. BA: If I see anyone letting up in the second half, I'll have you replaced...

    NFC West Draft Thoughts-2015

    Thought I'd start a thread on how y'all think our division rivals are doing with this draft. I'll start by saying I hate the thought of having to face Todd Gurley twice a year. On the plus side, I think the Rams OL is still a dumpster fire, so I question how effective Gurley will be...

    If Todd Bowles Leaves....

    I've seen a few posts where people are throwing out names of replacement coaches for Todd Bowles, if he ends up taking a HC position elsewhere. What I haven't seen is anyone mentioning who, on the current staff, could be promoted to DC - a move I think is much more likely to occur than brining...

    What team coaches the Senior Bowl

    It used to be that the team with the best record to miss the playoffs got to coach the Senior Bowl. I think Joe Bugel and his staff did it one year. That should be us for the NFC this year, unless this rule/tradition has changed. Does anyone know?
