The Cards

My take on Arizona. Have watched a lot of red zone. And watched the game today against eagles. So not an expert but I have seen enough to know a little about how they operate.

Overall this year I have noticed that they get scoring from the big play more than being a team that puts together sustained drives.

Today they had 14 points off an 80 yd pass to fitz. And a long ball to another wr on 3rd and 5.

Palmer isn't the turnover machine he was in the recent past. His o line is ok. He has a great touch on the deep ball. But sometimes I wonder what he is looking at when reading the field. Today he was throwing short to guys who are well covered. And dumping off to rb for a loss when he wasn't really pressured.

It would appear that he wants to go to a certain guy at the start of the play and if that is not there immediately check down.

Their run game is ok but theyvare notvgoing to control a game with the run.

The run defense did a good job today against McCoy.

Pass rush seemed pathetic until they blitzed.

Eagles o line is pretty good in pass protection. Eagles passed for a lot of yards. The cards pass defense is ranked near last. In today's game I can see why. Foles had all day to throw.

They're very good

The cards are in our favor

We're a better team than they are but you never know how the Cowboys will take care of the football or kill themselves with penalties.

We should beat them though.

I think they ate over achieving. I credit that to the coach. I think in the second half if the season they are going to falter a bit.

They were fortunate to get that win today

Their offense is terrible. They might be without Patrick Peterson as well. I like our chances.

Our offense is better

Agreed. Palmer looked very off on many off his passes. It's like he has only one read in mind and throws it there no matter if they are open or not. Seems to overthrow a lot of deep balls. Did he even complete 50 percent of his passes?

Watching the game today, I came to one conclusion. I wouldn't go as far and say both Cards or Eagirls are frauds. I will, however, say that neither team impressed me and don't scare me at all.

They seem to just hang around and grind games out. I watch them and think they suck but they keep finding ways to win.

we can as long as we dont turn the ball over,the red zone TOs killed the eagles.

Palmer's deep ball was friggin amazing, he hit those receivers in FULL stride.

Ummmmm Commanders anyone?

As long as Jake "the snake" Plummer isn't coming back, I like our chances.

Arians is a fantastic coach!

I really like Arians too. And Palmer does have a nice touch for the deep ball. And they have speed.

They have not been turning the ball over much. Remember Palmer was a turnover machine. Gotta give some credit to Arians for the change there.

I think they'll be really tough. They remind me of the Cowboys in that they always seem to hang around and then make winning plays. Did it to the Chargers, the Giants and now the Eagles. Calais Campbell is the key to their defense and he didn't play all that much from what I saw. I think it will be a big, competitive game that'll'come down to who makes the big plays at the end. Good news is the Cowboys have stepped up to those type of challenges really well so far.

I also think it makes Indigenous Peoples game really important.. Not in the sense of actually needing to win for seeding or anything, but in the sense of the type of game that you've got to go out and take care of business in if you're going to really go places this year. With AZ looming, you have to avoid the potential 2 game skid here if you want to keep this thing going. Plus, with the Eagles losing today you've got a chance to make some hay in the division race and you don't want to drop that with a loss to a 3rd string QB.

Nope...20 for 42...won't cut it against teams with quarterbacks that are around 70%

LOL...the Indigenous Peoples game. Took a few seconds to register that one. Funny!

I'm just thinking Commanders at the moment.
