I don’t want Kyler gone. But they have a right to criticize their highly paid player when he does not perform. Everyone wants him to succeed (who is a Cardinal’s fan). But his play and body language leave a lot to be desired. I know I will be in the stands on MNF and want him to lead us to victory.
Is it time to move on from Kyler Murray

I am not quite there. I think the longer this goes the less those teams are. They could have gotten the house last off season.
The oldest NFL team has 7 total QBs with over 10,000 passing yards. 7...in some 130 years.

Lol… I texted a couple of my buddies that the only teams dumb enough to trade for Kyler as their elixir are probably the Raiders, Dolphins and Cowboys. Only question is which of them could Monty get the most draft picks from… that he would then inevitably squander.
People didn't ride Jake like this but there is the Jake / Leinart / Kolb group that is in the orbit
What other "body language" players are you aware of on the team?
Good lord 602. Most of us do not believe Kyler belongs in sucksville. Most think he is average that can win games with his athletic ability. The athletic ability is not enough to be a top tier qb.
He isn't paid like a top tier QB anymore.
We have cap space to spare anyway. Kyler's contract isn't stopping this team from adding talent

He is not average he plays for a below average team and today was big time proof.
yeah I wouldn't trade any high end draft picks. I would trade players.
Congrats. You have now earned the ASFN “Kyler Murray’s Biggest Fan” award. That’s okay. Some just don’t agree.
While this list does prove your point, I think about a third I would eliminate based on team construction and cap

I think you’re misremembering.
I am not comparing him to the players on our team. Just the other QBs who are team leaders. The difference is remarkable.
See this is why we find all this so frustrating. Absent of a salary cap, he is basically stating Murray is QB 15, which seems reasonable.
And he gets just attacked for it.
I was asked about my mental health today because I find this divisiveness so tiresome.

I can’t disagree with that plus a lot of those teams are also terrible franchises like the Cards.
I love Jake so maybe.

We picked apart Kurt Warner vs Matt Leinart
Warner's character was never attacked on this board
Leinart's character was but not his intelligence.

The 49ers?! LOL!
Denver? Their Head Coach had a chance to coach Kyler and rather took a team that was going to have to commit cap suicide for a year or two instead.
Tampa?! With one of the best offenses in the league and a resurgent Baker on a manageable contract?
Pittsburg? Why pay Kyler 50 million when you’ve already got just as good if not better offensive production with Fields at MUCH CHEAPER cost?
Falcons?! With Kurt playing the best ball of his life AND having just drafted a QBOTF?
Those suggestions make very little sense.
Panthers/Browns/jags/Indy/Raiders/Miami/Dallas/Jets would probably be happy with Kyler. Then again, those are some of the worst organizations in the league, so of course they’d salivate over his inconsistency.
Seattle could be a place he could flourish though with the right coaching. Any of those other spots and I think we’re looking at the same questions being asked.
Absent of salary cap? That’s like saying “other than that Mrs Lincoln, how did you like the play”?

Don’t remind me.
They would bring Kurt in and the offense would sing and I would be like why is Leinart playing?
Then Kurt retired and I couldn’t believe Wizenhunt cut Leinart and went with Anderson right before the season started.
That’s probably when I became radicalized. LOL
Okay....

Yeah sorry if he said that Kyler was a top 15 QB I don’t think there’d be much debate. Kyler is a mid-tier QB right now playing on a bad team.
What happens is he gets criticized. This game wasn’t really his fault, but he also didn’t life anyone up.
If you get plaudits for a middling passing performance like last weeks’s against San Fran, you’re gonna get criticized for a similar performance with a worse result.

This distorts arguments. No one questions Kyler’s “intelligence”. They question his football intelligence/acumen. That’s totally different than what you’re implying.
