    What a difference a year makes.

    Cards have 13 picks this draft, no?

    Understood, but, you had experienced a 4-13 team, unfortunately!

    Super Bowl XLIII Voted 'Worst Ever' By Arizona Fans (Satire)

    Somehow I missed this back in the day, but just found it while searching for something else. :lol: Slate: "The Cardinals’ presence in the Super Bowl is fluky and disgraceful."

    Cards Pick 4th

    Harry - Washington, New England, and Arizona all finished 4-13... so I believe the Cards pick 2nd in round 3.

    Seahawks at Cardinals gameday thread 1-7-24

    I can't remember a play that should've been challenged or would've been overturned in the Cards' favor all season!

    Cards Hire Jonathan Gannon as New HC

    It's odd that you "randomly" picked 2011, but as I'm sure you know there's been a shift toward offensive HC's in the last decade - especially when you consider the proportion who, as of today, would have their teams in the playoffs (bold) or in the hunt (*): OFF (17; 10 would be in playoffs if...

    2024 Draft Countdown/NFL Prospects thread

    I have no idea whether to interpret this as "WRs who are great at contested catches" or "WRs who can't get separation at the college level". :shrug:

    Humphries tore his ACL

    I wonder whether the Cardinals would put Johnson at LT and Beachum at RT vs. the Seahawks this week? Would that give any insight into Johnson's future viability as an NFL LT, or would it be counter-productive without Johnson having practiced at LT for an entire off-season and training camp?

    Bears Current Posture

    I don't usually keep track of who said what unless I'm replying to someone's post... but a number of people have said that the Bears would be crazy to take Harrison Jr., and that instead they need to take a QB because Fields will never be better than mediocre. (You yourself said Fields is a...

    Bears Current Posture

    That is what the tweet posited... but if Washington and New England both lose, and Atlanta wins, the strength of schedule tie-breaker would flip, the head-to-head tie-breaker would come into play, and New England would move ahead of Washington in the draft order - thus the outcome could be the...

    Bears Current Posture

    I agree, and probably "fumbles / 2" is a more accurate representation of a player's performance than "fumbles lost", but since @Krangodnzr brought up turnover ratio & turnovers per game, that's the metric I posted. Having said that - I reviewed the numbers in the part of my post that you quoted...

    Bears Current Posture

    In Fields' recent stretch of 9 games where his improvement has been noticeable, 210 yards per game. In Murray's 7 games since returning from injury, 220 yards per game. :shrug:

    Bears Current Posture

    Not sure what "stretch" you're referencing for Fields. I think when people talk about Fields' notable recent improvement, they're referring to this season, especially after the first few games. Since then (with four games lost to injury), Fields has 16 TDs (13 passing, 3 rushing) and 5 8...

    2024 Texans pick watch thread

    That article is incorrect / poorly written. It says BOTH Houston and Jacksonville clinch the AFC South with a win.

    OT -- NFL.com is garbage now

    Literally one click via the "Scores" button at the bottom of the screen in the app, or the Scores link at the top of the page on the website. :shrug: EDIT: Not to mention the "ticker" of live scores during the games (or scheduled games mid-week). Here are screenshots of the app & web UIs:

    Cardinals at Eagles gameday thread 12-31-23

    Coming into the season, the Cardinals were 20th youngest, but I think they've skewed younger as the season has gone on.

    Cardinals at Eagles gameday thread 12-31-23

    Per Darren Urban: "It's the first time the Cardinals didn't punt in a game since Nov. 26, 2006 in Minnesota – a day in which Matt Leinart threw for 405 yards. The Cardinals lost that game, however."

    Is Kyler Murray the answer at QB for next year and beyond?

    HUH?! This is a deranged statement. Stafford 2021 was 12-5 and had a 102.9 passer rating and 63.8 QBR. Purdy this year is is 11-4 and has a 112.2 passer rating and 71.7 QBR. :doi:

    CBS Projecting Murray Trade

    Now here, I disagree. Trading back for a 2025 1st only makes sense to me if they're STILL hedging the bet on Murray. If they're all in on him, they should make maximum use of their assets in 2024 draft which seems to be loaded at high-value positions of need for the Cards.

    CBS Projecting Murray Trade

    My thoughts exactly... for a while now. But I also love the idea of taking MHJ. And I could also see trading Murray this off-season & taking a QB! None of the options would surprise me and I can understand the reasoning behind all of them! Should be one of the most interesting off-seasons ever!

    CBS Projecting Murray Trade

    But, look at the relationship in the other direction. Of all top 5 QBs drafted in the last x years, what percentage were successful? What's the percentage of successful 1st rounders? And day 2 picks? Pretty sure the odds of finding a franchise QB decrease the farther back in the draft you pick.

    CBS Projecting Murray Trade

    I'm not happy about it, but I think 90% of us see it now. The question, as others have pointed out, is whether the Cards are better off (a)moving on this off-season and drafting Murray's replacement, or (b) building the rest of the team this off-season, giving Murray one more chance with better...

    CBS Projecting Murray Trade

    Not to beat a dead horse, but Murray is only a bargain in 3 years if he's playing at a top-10 level... and not only has he not shown evidence of his ability to do so for the last 2.5 years (!), but if he DOES start playing at that level, HE TOO will be expecting an extension in the same...
