Man…
I feel like the staff ran a more wide-open offense under the Passtronaut/when there were no expectations
Same. I also remember them going for it on fourth down a lot more that first season and people touting how aggressive Gannon was… and then shouting me down when I said it’s easy to be aggressive when there’s zero expectation and let’s see what’s what when games matter.

Well, we’ve seen the last couple years how his teams freeze on both offense and defense when it matters most, and his coaches’ balls shrivel to the size of peanuts.

On what play did Kyler hurt his foot?
He didn’t even try to recover his own facemask fumble for fear of being hit!
It couldn’t have been that play but that was the last play before he left.

idk how but he does get up favoring his left leg/foot - he gets up - looks disappointmented - realizes he's hurt and puts his head down

When you think about it, what would we be talking about if Emari hadn't fumbled and scored in a Cardinals blow out win. Reminds me of that English battle, where the loss of a shoe (horse) and the battle was lost and then the war was lost. Put it in the "What might have been" column.

Nah, Richard was unhorsed, sure, but he still almost killed the pretender (later King Henry VII). It was Lord Stanley's betrayal and charge that ended that battle, war, Richard's life, and kingdom.

Now getting off my history nerd hobby horse. I'll see myself out.

I’d watch this game if Brissett starts against his former Colts. He could be an October Surprise, Cards have nothing to lose at this point.

You’ll get positive odds betting the cards to score 21 point or more this week

To go deeper, Richard III got so close he killed Henry's standard bearer. That's how close he got. And that guy he killed turned out to be Sir William Brandon (I did have to look up his first name), whose son was Duke of Suffolk Charles Brandon, who became Henry VIII's closest friend.

Any chance we have, imo, will depend upon two players, and it won't be their on-the-field performance, but rather what they do in the clubhouse during the week. And, naturally I'm talking about Budda Baker and Calais Campbell. Two of the best leaders in football. Not sure if even they can pull it off, but if anybody.........
Rallis to his credit elsewhere, has been playing Budda out of position and out of the area where he can make the most impact. (away from the line of scrimmage)

I have almost zero hope that Budda can pull it off...
