Cardinals vs Rams last night vs Panthers

The game last night between the Cardinals and Rams was a tremendously enjoyable game 

Two quality  NFL teams and two young HC coaches who also called offensive plays 

there hasn’t been a Panthers  game in years that looked like that 

I asked myself if a Rhule team could ever look like that and the answer is ‘no’  

yes, I know both of those coaches made mistakes in their early tenure, but they got better, not worse 

if Tepper does not show  Matt Rhule the door come Jan 10, then that tells me the problem is the owner  

The owner won’t change.  

it’s his club and he can do what he wantS

it may well be ‘lipstick on a pig’ with Rhule but it’s Tepper’s pig.

The Cards weren’t afraid to can their first round QB after a year or so and it’s been tremendous for their team. Kliff has gotten away from the cutesy calls and running more NFL schemes to the success of Kyler.

 

One thing to remember is that Kliff and Rhule met a couple times in the Big 12 and that’s why I think we’re 2-0 vs. the Cards with Rhule. He’s just a better college coach and deserves to do well in the NCAA where he can recruit and do things that appeal to 18 year olds rather than grown men with families.

Both of those coaches went out and got the QB that they wanted. Murray looks like the real deal, and McVay decided Goff was garbage and shipped him off to the football wasteland known as Detroit, and managed to get Stafford in the process. A great QB is everything.

Most of this fan base would have a fit if they spent a #1 pick on a QB a year after spending a top 10 pick on a QB.  They would start whining some gibberish about needing to protect him or give him weapons.

I'm curious why Pittsburgh let the Conner go? He looked like a legit player and can catch out of the back field. Between him, Kirk and Hopkins at WR, what more does Arizona need? 

Granted, the end of the game was horrible- everything about Arizona's clock management when they recovered the on-side kick was brutally inept.

It’s a QB driven league 

draft your guy, pair him with a QB guru, have a former head coach run your defense

amazing how arguably the most unsuccessful franchise in sports figured that out but we couldnt

Also, Arizona didn't waste precious time with a incompetent head coach, they fired him after one year.

Tepper needs to take note.

I was surprised as well. Connor is legit. He stepped up well for Pittsburgh when Bell was the starter and went down. Now he is flourishing with Arizona. To think he was a FA back that we could have picked up!!

Hell some people are wanting to roll with Darnold next year because our line is terrible. You have to have a QB to compete. If there is one we like we need to try to obtain him. Best case scenario is new coach and new QB next year.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing as I was watching the Bills and Bucs play on Sunday.  We aren't even close to being in the same league.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
