Penny for the TD... if he doesn't make our team then he's got a chance to play somewhere this season.

Penny candy!!

He won't make the team, probably the practice squad. He isn't as good as he looks tonight, it is mostly the blocking.

He missed 5 out of 58... which was the 2nd most attempted in the NFL. Carolina attempted 59, missing 2 & getting 1 blocked. Other teams missed 4+ in less attempts. Catanzaro ended up at 91.4%.... which puts him about 8th worst % wise, but who knows how many other kickers would've missed if their teams scored more TDs.

Penny's from heaven.

Damned near 10%. Yikes

Cut David Johnson, start Elijah Penny

Cut Carson Palmer, start Matt Barkley.

Am I doing this right, guys?

It usually is.

The Buffalo kicker and Jaguar kicker are the 'yikes' kings... they did not even score as much as the Cards, meaning their percentages meant more for points too lol

Lamar Lewis with a great tackle on the kickoff return. Tackled them at the 14 yd line.

Sir, you have a job in the NFL

Nkemdiche with another great penetration & then Gabe Martin intercepts the ball & returns it for a TD.

2nd time Nkemdiche actually got too much penetration & pushed his guy behind the QB, but then couldn't shed the block to make the play.

 

[NJCardFan]

Wow. Great seeing #32 dressed.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Papa John's Maximum Effort player of the game - Penny.

 

[jbeecham]

Nkemdiche with the sack

 

[Seandonic]

I sure hope Kareem Martin is ok! I think he's really going to contribute this year if healthy.

 

[jbeecham]

K. Martin & Okpalaugo going down might open the door for someone like Shaq Riddick to make the 53. Hopefully Martin isn't injured too badly. Okpalaugo was a longshot to make the 53 anyways.

Well, no need to worry about being able to win the Super Bowl after going 0-4 in the preseason!

 

[Scooby-Doo]

What else matters?

Nothing.

However that play seems to not work more than it works and on 4th down its a risky play. Regardless, the point is moot because it was a TD.

 

[jbeecham]

Top performers:
Matt Barkley
Elijah Penny
Kerwynn Williams
Robert Nkemdiche
Chandler Catanzaro
Gabe Martin (1 standout play on the INT for a TD)

Poor performances:
Cariel Brooks - abused all night & gave up a TD. Might've played his way off the team tonight.
Drew Butler - 3 punts with a 38.7 yard average.
Olsen Pierre - had good push, but ruined it with dumb penalties.

So can we all relax now? We won a pre-season game.

I was already relaxed

#35 was terrible, it is very hard to play man to man defense when you are 5 yards off your man. #25 bailed him multiple times otherwise they would have been all long TD completions.

It was nice for #90 to get some reps.

I really hope MB could turn out to be our QOTF in the next few seasons, he's only 26.

Shipley seems like He would make a solid slot receiver. He's shifty and runs good routs. I know he's a long shot, but he just seems to make plays. If we practice squad him, I bet another team picks him up.
