Slingin Sammy's Cardinals Game Review

We barely beat the Cardinals with a brand new QB...put that in historical perspective.

We are still a 7-9 team, but we may be able to push for 9 wins if things stay the same.

Good write-up.
I still don't like our Center's shotgun snaps...but they weren't as bad this week.
Hard to complain really...with an offense that pumps up this sort of yardage. I don't think we'll really know how good we are until we have a good 4 games under our belt...but I really didn't expect to be performing this well yet.

^ This is the second time that someone has mentioned "our center."

Is the name Will Montgomery that hard to learn?

Thanks to all for reading and all the kind words.

Great write up S S. Rak and Kerrigan are the real deal.

Skinsnut, why do we even need to keep predicting how it is going to end this year, lets just let it play out. What ever happens we are still going to be fans. Let's let it ride and enjoy it win or lose. As long as we are moving forward as a team I am happy for now.

I would've kicked the FG, but I'm an 80s Gibbs disciple. I was torn on where to put it, it's a 50/50 call there so I don't fault the decision. I do agree it seemed forced. Good execution on the play, I think there was a coverage breakdown by Peterson, just couldn't see for sure from the TV angles.

I agree with you about if the play doesn't convert...we're having a much different discussion today. But the focus would still be on Rex/KS either way. I think KS can get better with playcall in key situations, I'm not as optimistic on Rex becoming "Good Rex" all the time.I'm about 85% sure that the coverage was 2-man. The scheme and quarterback were responsible for keeping the safety (Wilson) out of the play, but Moss needed to beat Peterson to the edge for that throw to be there.

It's risky because Rex could read the coverage, make a perfect throw on the money, and Peterson could have still been underneath Moss to force a turnover on downs. Fortunately, Moss beat him and everything worked out fine.
