Cam is pretty murderous against the blitz, I hope teams keep blitzing him. He seriously had 5 TDs against the blitz in ONE GAME and people still think they should blitz him?

He is but...

Arizona is extremely good at generating interior pressure with the blitz, which a few years ago forced cam to throw off his back foot more often than he does now.  That was how they kicked our butts in... 2013? I think?

It's not so much that they blitz a lot that concerns me, its the type of blitzes they have success with.  However, this was before Norwell and Trai.  I'm a heck of a lot more comfortable about the interior of our pocket with those guys.

With Chris Johnson done for the year, the Cardinals are arguably the most one-dimensional team in the league. David Johnson has shown flashes of being a good RB but is still a rookie and very uneven. Their backup is Andre Ellington, who is injured for a undisclosed amount of time and has a long injury history. Put Norman on John Brown and Bene on Fitzgerald and have a healthy blitz gameplanned. The Bengals have a similar defense to ours and they successfully pressured Palmer up the middle all day in Arizona. 

 

Moving onto the other side of the field, the Cardinals have a solid defense. However, Patrick Peterson is arguably the most overrated CB in the game, and they gave up 300+ yards to BLAINE GABBERT. They allowed no-names Vance McDonald to get 71 yards and a TD, and Blake Bell (who?) get 67 yards. Shaun Draughn (he's still around?) also got 5 receptions for 35 yards. We have better weapons than the 49ers do, especially in the rushing game. We match up decently with Arizona, at least better than people seem to think.

    • I don't have a dog in this fight (I use an antenna and almost never miss the game), but I don't read tukafan21's post as defending the corporation. He just laid out the math.
    • Because it's not that bad, it is literally saving people money if they don't live near the team they root for and are able to get them on local TV every week. Do I wish it was cheaper? Sure, of course. But I can also objectively look at it and say it's saving me money compared to needing to go watch it at a bar ever weekend.   And before anyone says to just stream it, I did it for a while once Covid hit, partially because we were so bad so I didn't care about the problems with it, but it was just awful.  To begin with, sometimes they just flat out didn't work, sometimes the quality sucked, sometimes it would just buffer every 30 seconds and be nearly unwatchable. The $450 this costs for the season is a significantly better deal than the $180 I have to spend to watch Wrexham matches for the season.  That pass, you have to sign up for an individual team and you only get their games (and not even all of them sometimes).  At least with Sunday Ticket, you get every single non national or local game, which again, is amazing for fantasy football junkies.
    • I honestly don't think that was as true as most believed. Cam was a very efficient passer in Norv's system and again in his year in NE. I think we hurt him in his development and as an overall QB trying to tailor TOO much to his unique talents. The read option should've always remained a staple, but after year two the passing game should've evolved into a more typical modern day NFL passing offense vs. an obsession with chunk play deep ball setups.
