    Takeaways on SF Game

    Had to DVR the game to do the trick or treat thing. Just finished watching it and it was a much better game than I expected. 1) P2 is washed up or his heart isn't in it. In hindsight think we probably should have dealt him when he was demanding a trade. It was tough to fathom at the time as we...

    Setting the Wrong Kind of Records

    Kyler Murray had 173 passing yards on 30 completions, an NFL record for the fewest pass yards by a QB with at least 30 completions in the Super Bowl era. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27680731/cards-murray-struggles-get-yards-attempts 4 yards per attempt :(

    If you had to put $1,000 on Over/Under

    As of today Vegas has Cards at 5 wins for 2019. You are forced to put $1,000 on it... Are you taking the over or under?

    Poll: How many wins needed next season...

    How many wins will it take next season to redeem Keim and Bidwill for the decisions that put the team in chaos for over a year and prove the KK/KM decisions wise? Don't vote on what on what you expect the win total could be, just the minimum wins it will take to regain or reinforce your...

    SI on What Stopped a Rosen Deal

    According SI, Keim didn't start trying to move Rosen in earnest until just before the draft and wanted a 1st round pick. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.si.com/nfl/2019/04/26/arizona-cardinals-josh-rosen-no-draft-night-trade-first-round Miami Herald is reporting they wanted a top 16 pick for...

    Anyone Catch The 98.7 Coverage...

    ... when we drafted Murray. They played the Mel Kiper analysis and then I think they were having a background (off air) convo that got picked up after the analysis ended and broke back into coverage. I think it was Gambo who was talking and said players in the locker room were telling him they...

    Cards, can you at least delete the tweet now?

    Goff was a Bust Too

    ...in his rookie year. 7 games, QBR 19, only 5 TDs to 7 INT. IIRC he never won a game he started and he looked like as bad or worse as Rosen doing it. Then McVay comes in the next year and the guy is their franchise QB. Goff has probably the most parallels to Rosen as any QB in recent history...

    NFL Network Reporting We Are Deciding Today

    NFL Network reported this morning that Cards will make their final decision on #1 overall today and they have not had legit offers on trades so the assumption is the #1 will not be dealt. I inferred the latter part means they hadn't received an actual offer put on the table on trade down or...

    Murray Scores Lowest on Wonderlic

    Yes, the Wonderlic is not a strong indicator in NFL QB performance, at least not linearly but it is still something you want to avoid being be last on. It seems like the sweet spot for the last couple years is right around 25 which is where Baker, Mahomes and Trubisky scored (Lock and Haskins...

    The Myth That Mobile QBs Don't Take Sacks/Hits

    I already had to bust the myth that the game has totally gone offense friendly and defense is second fiddle, so let's keep busting more of these intuitions. I keep hearing this argument as a counterpoint to Murray's size - he won't get touched because he is so mobile, being compared to Wilson...

    Overthrosen

    Still waiting for Rosen's progress to begin. Anyone else starting to feel like it may not happen? Coaching is one thing, but hitting your man and making easy reads and seeing wide open receivers is on him.

    Anyone else thinking we should draft a QB?

    I will preface this with I'm putting a very low chance of using an early round pick on a QB, but if it were my team to run I would be exploring it. Even though I have been putting all of my hope on Rosen to hit the ground running and making the case for him being a franchise level QB, I did...

    What does Keim do at the end of season?

    I'm curious if people think(not what you would do, or want him to do), if this season continues on it's current trajectory will he cut bait on Wilks or stay the course? In terms of trajectory I mean around a 3 win team with a not a lot of hope in sight and players likely not believing their...

    SK Needs To Own This Terrible Offense

    I'm with a lot of you... McCoy is not a great a OC. I have not been a fan of his play calling and scheming at all. What I saw today though is that he seemed to be taking steps in the right direction. We saw more deep and mid range shots, some screens, but more importantly less of the *face...

    Apologists, please explain why this is OK in a "rebuild year"

    I've been hearing a lot of people around the net giving SK and the coaching staff a pass, essentially saying this was what we should have expected - that this is what every fan has to settle for during a "rebuild year" in the the NFL. I don't buy that one bit, but I'm willing to hear the...

    Am I the only one optimistic thru PS Game 2?

    I know it's only preseason, and game 2 at that, but... based on a lot of the comments you would think this team is just in shambles, but from what I am seeing I am very optimistic strictly based on the limited preseason sample size. That isn't saying much, I admit, but is all we have to go on so...

    BASK is Wearing Thin with Me

    I get that is just one game, but this team just doesn't look like the teams of pre-2016 that made you feel excited about the season. If this were just one bad game I would do my best to ignore it, but all of the issues seem like a continuation of a theme that slowly started emerging even prior...

    Larry Fitzgerald interviewed by Larry King tomorrow

    I just got forwarded this... There is online show broadcasting Wednesday where Larry King is interviewing Larry Fitzgerald. It's at 5PM (AZ / Pacific) It looks like it is going to be around an hour and about Larry's life and struggles and how he became a star on and off the field. It should be...

    David Johnson (Plinko) is Fantastic

    Call him whatever you want, but around here we have started calling him Plinko because no one bounces through holes and cuts back and forth while moving downhill better than him right now. This guy is just outstanding and if we can get him at least 25 touches a game it will give us a much...

    Tonight I Learned...

    ... Well what most of all already knew, but confirmed nonetheless. Running the ball is good. DJ is a huge asset. A guy cut from multiple practice squads looks like a all pro compared to Butler and when we don't gift the opposition with great field position each punt out defense has a chance...

    Palmer Offcially Out

    Not surprised but my level of confidence has waned in winning this game. Hopefully Stanton will surprise us with good play.

    Watching 2015 Highlights

    I needed a lift so I was watching some 2015 highlights on YouTube. What a difference a season makes. Don't get me wrong, some of the writing was on the wall last year so it is surprising that it wasn't a point to iron that out for this year. We had some of the same problems with many slow...

    Delusions

    Trust me, what I am going rant about is not the only problem and in the scheme of things is probably one of the smaller problems, but I feel like it is a pattern that is related to the bigger problems. BA said he had no major concerns. Really? Special teams is not a concern? We are not even...

    Does "Cool Uncle" have anything to do with it?

    Part of what makes me a huge fan of BA is that he is the "cool uncle" and a player's coach... but at the same time part of me can't help but think it could be a weakness. I know this is a question that can really never be answered, but the idea has been rattling around in my head a bit; so take...
