SK is fantastic trading (Hopkins, Jones, Palmer, etc.)

He is ok signing FA’s especially this past off season on defense.

But SK needs to do better than going 1/7 every draft. Just watched Metcalf catch the go ahead TD for the Seahawks. Wirfs is looking good for the Bucs.

Despite KM’s play today he is still a stud and I know he will grow from this.

Just saying look at our last 5 drafts. That’s what’s holding back the Cardinals.

Yup. It is no longer 'coincidence'. Yes.. coaching can always be better.... especially around here. But you put the best young talent out there nowadays and they can make a coach. Doesn't work the other way around imo.

The best talent today (Hopkins aside) was Isabella and Kliff blanked him the whole second half in favor of giving KeeSean Johnson the snaps. Coaching matters.

I noticed this and I’ll be honest I don’t pay attention to things like this traditionally. It seemed to me Isabella and/or Hopkins could do whatever they wanted to and Kyler tried forcing it to other guys.

I also didn’t understand that I saw at least once where there was 1 WR on the field and it was Johnson. Why not Isabella or Hopkins? Johnson scares nobody and for good reason

Johnson should not make the active roster. How is he better than JoJo Ward?

This is where Kyler needs to wake up and trust something that seems counterintuitive to him. Attack the weakness and keep attacking. This was any matchup on Dhop today. I really hope he lights up Kyler a bit about these things. I want to see defenses break up multiple passes before I turn away from it... Then again, this is where coaching comes in. KK gets lost in his own creative mind at times, I believe.

KeeSean isn’t that bad. He just shouldn’t be getting targets over Fitz

What does he do well? He's not fast, doesn't have great hands, and doesn't get open. He is sherfield without the ST ability.

We should have activated Ward to fill in for Kirk. At least he brings speed.

You’re railing on the fifth WR on the roster. What do you know about Ward aside from he runs in a straight line fast?

I know that his straight line speed makes him more valuable than Johnson.

Why did the 5th WR on the roster play 70% of Snaps today while Isabella played 39%

It's not KeeSean's fault he was put in that situation. It's Kliff's.

Kyler is the only one with superstar potential in the last three drafts. He happens to be #1 overall pick. No other player in the last three drafts will start for any of the 31 NFL teams.

But sure keep sending those 'Thank You, Keim" notes.
