Boldin Misses Wednesday's Practice

Pro Bowl wide receiver Anquan Boldin is sitting out his second straight practice Wednesday with a strained left hamstring, working out on the side, and his availability for Saturday night's game in Charlotte, N.C., against the Carolina Panthers remains unclear.

The Cardinals usually don't provide detailed injury information, and Boldin's status probably won't be determined until shortly before Saturday's 6:15 p.m. kickoff.

Boldin was working on agility drills with a team trainer late this morning.

He suffered the injury during a 71-yard touchdown catch in last Saturday's victory over the Falcons. He had missed the previous two games because of a shoulder injury.

Boldin was not available for comment.

100% he will be in the game, plus theres been many other times teams seemed to play up a players chance of not playing, only for them to come out strong. arizona will be running full speed against us, but still won't be able to handle us again.

i just hope the giants or eagles are ready for a big letdown come the title game.

In an interview just a few hours ago, Dansby said that he saw Q in the training room and he looked fine. Not 100% obviously, but I think you guys need to know that Anquan will play. Even if he sneaks by putting on some backup special teamers jersey and running onto the field against orders, he'll play.

I'm just upset that he ain't 100%, because I know we need to bring our A game to Charlotte, and without his versatility, that cuts a chunk out of our playbook.

Dude's gonna play, I know it. And it's no coincidence that the coach doesn't talk about injuries, but this story just happened to slip out. It's a chess move in the mental game that leads up to the real game on Saturday. I'm sure we're gameplanning for him.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
