I think a lot of people don't realize we're not all that similar to Baltimore. People who don't watch us every week have a misconception about the way we play on offense. We're in this spot because of our aggressive passing in the first half of games more than anything else. 

 

I love that the roof is going to be open. Something about open atmospheres in big games just feels way better. Still not completely open like a normal stadium, but better than totally closed dome.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's only taking the interview as a courtesy knowing they're tied to Murray for at least one more year.  Get to know them a bit for future reference.  In that case they'd have to blow him away with guaranteed years and money to actually land him.

Yeah, even if you can’t move on this year just have it clear that year 1 is a total demolition year and like you said have enough GTD where they have to give you 3-4 years to turn it around.

And when the aggressive passing doesn’t work. They switch to aggressively running the ball with QB/RBs down the other teams throats no matter what rank the run defense is.

The cardinals aren’t guaranteed to keep him longer than a year. They fired wilks after a season and drafting rosen at 10 cause they wanted murray and then hired kingsbury as he was a "better candidate” than wilks the year prior in their eyes. Flores removed his name from the job consideration for a reason (heard we was definitely being considered and not just a name out there). That 2024 cardinals job looks great if they are awful in 2023 and stumble into the 1st overall pick 

Baltimore's receiving core the last 5 years. Mark Andrews and a bunch of stiffs.

Lamar Jackson the last 2 years, hurt or mediocre. (88.9 rating)

 

If you find that a previous version of your team that had way more talent was able to stop Baltimore, its really not going to help you in today's annihilation.

Cool story though 🤣

Definitely. They're just not like Baltimore in that they're not a team built entirely on the running game and the read option. That's just a part of what we do.

Vegas does not let you make money on certainties. There is probably an NFL or Pepsi person or group responsible for randomly picking colors and passing them to the teams. Then the colors are different for each team so even knowing a color can still lose if that team loses.

Thinking you can win money because Tik Tok said so is very PT Barnum.

Who had "Gatorade Color Conspiracy Theory Shot Down by Australian Crab Spiders"...

No one, probably...we've been Yellow since forever under Nick...

Dawkins on NFL Network right now sitting with Eisen and the crew. 

Damn. Was hoping he'd be with the team, in the locker room, getting those dudes fired up.

Here it is. @TorontoEagle

37-17. The good guys.

Mahomes doesn't finish the game and they will all be crying, how they coulda shoulda woulda if he was healthy.

 

Bonus: Hurts with 2 TDs and is calm as a cucumber as your franchise QB should be.

Rachel Bonnetta on the NFL network is pretty easy on the eye. Never saw her before.

Lamar is an entirely different runner than Hurts. We both have lots of QBs runs, but the types of runs are not similar at all.

How does everyone feel about Kevin Burkhardt? He’s a solid announcer, but he’s never had that "big game feel” to me. FOX desperately needs to snag some new PBP talent. They were weak there to begin with and lost their best man to espn.

I think KC matches up better against us up front than maybe most realize. OL is probably second best behind ours, and the DL is very underrated. 

Their RT gave up the third most sacks and their LT struggled against JAX. Don't buy into the hype

Definitely. Lamar is in a different stratosphere as a runner compared to Hurts.

She is also very funny from time to time. She's been on lots of pregame and weekend stuff. Sometimes she hosts the analytics show.

Some rando asked to marry her or date her or something at one of the drafts. She rolled with it pretty well.

I think we gave up twice as many sacks as they have. It's not about hype, the proof is in the pudding. They're good.
