Cardinals week, thoughts and predictions

Recommended Posts

Cam's out

Time to move onto this week

 

Keys im watching 

 

How we matchup aginst Kingsbury offense.  

Cardinals have one of the worst OL in the league (unfortunately so did Tampa).  And David Johnson is dinged up.  So expecting their Running game to be shut down

The passing game. 

Christian Kirk is solid and quietly put together just as nice of a opening of his career as DJ Moore.  

 

What scares me- Larry Fitzgerald.  He has been working out of the slot a Lot

 Our Nickel CB.has been less than ideal this season.  And if we are not able to generate pressure Fitzgerald is going to be in for a monster game

 

 

Last year the Cardinals were last in the league in run D and didnt go out and bring anyone in to improve 

So expecting a heavy heavy dose of CMC 

 

In the passing game, the Cardinals have given up back to back 100 yards performances from TEs.  So if our OL can hold off Chandler Jones, this could be a big game for Olsen

Another cool storyline

 

Allen vs Murray

 

Allen wa the top QB out of HS went to Texas A&M.  Also 2 years later?  Another highly ranked QB cane to A&M,  that kid was Kyler Murray

 

Allen started and was leading the SEC in efficiency.  When he went down later in the season, Kyler took over and the rest is history.  Allen went to move on from A&M

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
