Have to agree.
A 25% conversion rate on third down is not going to win you a lot of games. Winning this game was nice and not expected. There were some timely plays and fortunate bounces.
This defense plays too sporadically to expect the kind of performance they turned in Sunday every game. There are games to come where the offense is going to need to play much better than it did Sunday.
Nice win but nowhere near convinced this team is there yet. Are we getting lucky? So far yes however even luck runs out after awhile and good solid consistent play needs to rise to the top sooner than later.
Good post. The Cards have five returns for TDs this season. 3 fumbles, one kickoff, one INT that account for 40% of our total points.
Other than Brown's return the Offense has scored only 5 TDs.
Let's hope the bye week gives the Cards the time they need to get that offense on track.
