Greg Dortch, not Michael Wilson (or any of our defensive players like Stills), pegged to be Arizona's most likely break-out player this year by one SI journalist:


He also made their most-underrated list they published a couple of weeks ago.

Interesting.

I think he's underrated by most. Lamb was the only stud skill player on their team last year, they had a bad running game, and he still threw for 4,516.

His main issue is he's on the Cowboys and they will always suck.

There's shades of Kyler about him. He's inconsistent. He can have spells where he's on fire, and spells where he sucks balls.

A bad Cardinals defense that was still learning the scheme limited him to 16 points last year.

Interesting: one of the guys noted that he thought the Cardinals' lack of pre-snap motion was a "Kliff thing", but now thinks it's a "Kyler thing". The Cardinals were last in the league in pre-snap motion from week 10 onward. Clip starts here:

He goes on to say that some QBs prefer that as they can identify the post-snap picture better vs. a static O rather than against motion. "A lot of Air Raid QBs are like that. Aaron Rodgers was like that for a while in GB."

Yeah that was the biggest takeaway for me. But you would think by year 6 he would be past that. Let's see.
