Kyler Murray stats vs Ravens

[Crimson Warrior]

Murray's stat line today

25/40 (62.5%) 349 Yards 0 TDs 0 Ints - did convert another 2 pt play


That's now 94 attempts without a pick. I thought he played a great game today. Took care of the ball, and kept his team within striking distance.

 

[Goldfield]

No doubt dude can play. We need to get a solid Oline in front of him and shore up the D

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

He had a pick last game. Though he hasn't thrown one in like his last 88 or so passes.

He played even better than the 4th quarter last week imo.

Thanks man. 88 and counting....

 

[WildBB]

Some throws he's a bit lucky on, imo.

But for the time he's had, pretty impressive for a game 1 starting rookie QB.

The whole offense looked really shaky on the last two possessions, don't you think? I think K2, Murray and the Oline were all struggling to get on the same page.

That can be fixed though.

This is the first game where I haven't felt like I was gonna throw up in a while.

Thought Kyler and the team as a whole looked a lot more prepared this game than the last one. Our o-line is definitely my biggest concern.

 

[TheCardFan]

He has looked really good.

I am surprised he isn't running more though. I don't want him to get hurt but look how much pressure Lamar puts on a defense. Kyler can be even better.

Agree. Our O line looked over-matched today.

Until we prove we can run the ball with some effectiveness Murray will be under duress.

Even if we just line up in a “ power” formation once in a while it would help.

That was the atmosphere/crowd noise in the end zone. We will get that fixed. Is #11 not an absolute beast or what lol?

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

When Kyler has the ball in his hand I feel confident that hes going to do something positive and not throw a boneheaded pick. I trust him.

Haven't felt that way in years and years.

Even the Palmer years were full of cringing when he threw the ball because he often threw into double or triple coverage and got picked.

This is only his 2nd NFL game after only 1 season of college ball. The kid is a natural.

It is curious about the lack of rushing yards. He's always been a past first QB, and he's always looking downfield.

Still, I agree that to maximize his effectiveness, he needs to, like you said, put pressure on the defense with his legs.

I'm so happy for Larry. Back to back 100 yards games, with big big plays. Getting rewarded for all his hard work. It's a great story.

he played good.He needed to get TDs instead of FGS.At some point he has to start converting
3rd downs better .That could come with experience.

 

[Jetstream Green]

I think it might take the fifth or sixth game till Kyler can turn the corner in the red zone, along with Kiff, on a consistent basis

Averaging 108.5 yds/game so far. I just did that math in my head lol.

Yeah those last two possessions were disappointing but all in all not too bad a game two.

 

[Chopper0080]

For a guy with his size and starting experience, you have to be happy with where he is at in his development. He has not looked as dynamic as I thought he would. The Cardinals had a chance to win both of their first two games and despite not being able to, it is better than last year by a mile.

I agree. But, to preserve our own sanity (& shot at the playoffs) I hope the light bulbs go on by Game #4.

Part of our offensive improvement this year has to be credited to the coaching staff. We're seeing WRs running wide open, and play calls that are creating mismatches (like that nifty little outlet pass to Krik that set up our only TD).

Also, IMO, our offensive line is playing a little better vs. last year. A little. Today was tough, but if we can start the same five next week, I think we'll it will help get us our first win.

And, then yes, K1 has productive his first two games.

So, like you mention, we've been competitive, which is a good start. Let's see if next week we can improve our red zone offense a little, and pick up our first win.

Very gracious of you to post some accolades for young Kyler BW52, and agree that our red zone offense is a concern.

Let's see if that's something they can improve on next week.

I think I’m most surprised that he doesn’t pull it down and run more often. It might be a good thing that he doesn’t rely on his legs too much. But establishing that as a threat, a REAL threat, would create more offense imo.

That said, even when he does run he doesn’t look nearly as fast as I expected. He’s quick. Has a good ability to move around to gain throwing angles. But I haven’t seen the fast that allowed him to rush for 1,000 yards last year.

I wonder if he isn't compensating for being called a running QB all off season?
