Cardinals at Bills gameday thread 9-8-24

[Cardsfan77]

Two positives - we beat the -6.5 spread and we’re not Panthers fans

James Conner getting as many run plays as he did has to stop. That really made me mad more than anything today.

Agree. Especially the stretches.
freaking Petzing is buying in to the internet hype

 

[602 Native]

Defense and 2nd half play calling lost this game.

 

[Russ Smith]

Strange that K1 would go to the guys that have been dependable all game.

Which is why I said I hope it's a 1 off for Marvin.

He was open for a TD on the last drive Kyler just didn't see him. I hope this is the only time he's not the primary guy for Kyler to look at.

 

[oaken1]

If you said we would go to the Bills and have a chance to drive to win the game down 6 in Q4 I'd snatch your hand off.

No game of football is perfect. No team stops every QB run or gets off the field every 3rd down. The game probably comes down to a few moment.

Zaven's sack being ruled a foul. Letting them get that long 3rd down to James cook. Not getting PI calls at the end. Kyler missing MHJ wide open.

I'd argue they looked rusty in crucial spots and probably comes down to most players not getting a competitive snap in preseason.

But lots here to be positive about. We scored 30 on the road at a SB contender.

Truth.
That ******** call on Collins was a game changer. Turned a punt into points.

James Conner getting as many run plays as he did has to stop. That really made me mad more than anything today.

My big issue was the MHJ usage. I know Buffalo was bracketing him but still needs more than three targets.

 

[Mainstreet]

Then why did we draft MHJ in the first round?

It's a good question. I thought he was an elite talent and then not use him.

 

[SECTION 11]

I was at a swim meet all morning and missed everything. How did MHJ have one catch for four yards???

 

[Evil Ash]

So playing and getting your timing down in PS games is looming large between KM and MHJ

No timing at all today

He was double-teamed for most of the game with safety help (except for the one play were the inexplicably left him WIDE OPEN)

The playcalling in the 2nd half was downright bizarre at times and the D was Swiss cheese throughout. It really shouldn't have been as close as it was

 

[BirdGangThing]

you adjust your playcall during the 2 minute drill - priorities being not running out of downs or time

A) leave a blocking back in there to pick up blitz
B) empty backfield spread with kyler able to run
C) run conner up the middle as buffalo blitzes
D) C really isn't usually the correct answer on these

 

[DaHilg]

I guess Petzing doesn’t believe in rollouts for the fastest QB w in 10 yard in the league - I’m absolutely disgusted

 

[cardcrazy]

Cardinals should have won this one on the last drive. We gotta be smarter. Wilson’s drop didn’t help either. Designed passes to McBride and at least give Harrison a shot. That being said Dortch was interfered with on 2 passes.
Defense wasn’t good especially against the run although Josh Allen is damn good and will hang 34 on a lot of defenses.
I’m not completely disappointed in today’s performance because anyway you look at it this was supposed to be a loss.

He could have ran it over and handed it to him.

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Umm the Bills are good have been for awhile in case yo just started watching football lol. Anyone who had this marked as an opening win was lying to themselves!

Bills are good but he ain’t wrong in terms that we are going to need to score 35 points a game because the defense is a mess.

 

[BirdGangThing]

I was at a swim meet all morning and missed everything. How did MHJ have one catch for four yards???

they kept safety help over the top for the first 3 quarters

How in the actual F does he not see him???

 

[BullheadCardFan]

I waited almost 8 months to get kicked in the gonads

Really? You must have a really low opinion of the team if you were encouraged by this game.

We couldn’t stop them all game.

 

[DVontel]

And we still should’ve won smh

I don’t know.

Knowing our defense, Josh probably would have drove Buffalo down for a FG. They would’ve had 30 seconds left.

For all the Kyler excusers

 

[Proximo]

It's a good question. I thought he was an elite talent and then not use him.

Well, I think we need to see more than 2 targets before we call him a bust.

 

[CardsFan88]

Offense is not as good as advertised
Defense just as bad as advertised

 

[Dback Jon]

Two ******** non calls and a ******** 3rd down call.

Damn.

Both were more PI than those called on Bunting
