I get that it would be fantastic to have millions of dollars but Kyler Murray is nothing more that an immature little boy on one of the worst contracts in the history of the universe. He should feel nothing but shame.
I think the shame belongs more on the Cards front office for thinking it was a good idea to pay an immature diminutive QB at the top of the QB market.

As bad as the Cards are - and they are bad - Don’t forget that even a really good team like the Cowboys can take the opponent lightly and get a bigger fight than expected.

Remember the Hou Texans game last year? We barely beat the second worst team in the league 27-23 and we were playing at home. Remember Texans QB Davis Mills somehow looked good for 3 qtrs and lame Texans WR Chris Moore had 10 receptions for 124 yards and a TD? We were lucky to win that game.

You cannot take ANY NFL team lightly. Ever.

I know the Cardinals have been in every game this season vs NFCE Rivals, I mean they gave the Commodes n Gnats all they could handle. So, it means this team plays hard, no matter the outside perception. Dallas has to go in there and take care of business early and smother that team.

You are 100% correct. But this year is different. This defense is different

Cardinals QB will be running for his life

Mentioned this elsewhere. But I see absolutely zero point is playing Tyron Smith in this game. We don’t need him this week and he needs to be preserved. Why not sit him out?
I would

James Conner has been running hard for them. It'll be important to jump out to a lead so they have to abandon the run. Hollywood Brown is an explosive deep threat so have to be careful to not let him get behind our secondary. Other than that, not much to worry about.

On defense they have some ugly, stringy-haired guy named Gardeck who I'd never heard of before this year who's been on fire vs. Washington and the Giants. He seriously looks like a caveman, but he's got 3 sacks already and has been their most disruptive defensive player in their first two games.

They were executing well in the first half, QB was running and throwing well, was taking care of NYG just like the Cowboys did until the second half. Almost like they figured the game was over and went into conservative prevent.
Not exactly like the Cowboys did against the Giants . . . The Cowboys took the Giants Soul

Their QB will not be throwing any where. He will be running . . . For His life and into the Jaws of Micah and the Boys

Quinn got them licking their chops

He is not even a leader and everyone knows that his the only attribute that really matters to fans

Total team let up and key injuries .... my only concerns with Cowboys vs Arizona .

This team has gradually dismantled its team talent and they seem poised to being one of the worst records in NFL.

They're tanking. Their 21 point blown lead vs NYG was laughable, and my suspicion is that it was ordered from the owner's box.

If the game is somehow close, Arizona will roll over and let us win. There's no risk of losing here, only a risk of injuries.

Do any players stand out to you, that we need to really focus on? How's their defense/offense, what are your biggest concerns????
Stand out? No. They have James Conner, Zach Ertz and Marquise Brown. Randall Moore can sneak out of nowhere from time to time with a big game. Mostly though, stop Conner and they are dead in the water. Shouldn't be a big ask considering we already have shut down better running games

The Cards have a ton of injuries and have lost some of their better players to FA.

OFFENSE
  • Kyler Murray is still recovering from last year’s knee injury and on the PUP list. Cards seem to have given up on him long term but he has that big contract so will be hard to trade.
  • They currently start Josh Dobbs at QB. A veteran of 8 NFL teams and not very good.
  • Their first round pick this year was Paris Johnson who starts at RT.
  • They have Marquis “Hollywood” Brown from a trade with Balt, and that’s about it for skill position people.
DEFENSE
  • They used to have a really good D. Not anymore
  • All Pro S Budda Baker is on IR.
  • Former Cowboys castoff DL Carlos Watkins starts at DE.
  • Their two Safeties are former eagles picked up on waivers.
Bottom line: This is not a good team. They had a 21 point lead at home vs the midgets last week and lost. They are banged up at several positions and have lost a lot of talent since Kingsbury was their coach.
Watkins is out, so it will be an even worse player starting.
