    Official Cardinals Flight Plan Video Thread - 2021

    Starting with Golden, Gardeck, Budda and Watt on one side of the ball and Hopkins, our new center and the Pitt RB on the other - you've got to be impressed wth the Cardinal locker room. Now let's translate this to on-the-field production.

    PFT on Kliff

    No hard and fast rules: In most cases, poorly run franchises pull the trigger too rapidly. But there are cases (& KK isn't one of them) when tactically and culturally, the team is up against a brick wall and a change should be made (Perfect example: Wilkes). We're still watching KK grow as a...

    Cardinals GM: If Larry Fitzgerald is ready to play, ‘we’ll have a spot for him’

    Bank on it - The day after Larry leaves the roster, our receiving corps will fall victim to the Injury Curse. Find a (legit) role for Larry and be thankful we have him.

    Kyler utilizing the middle of the field

    Think of te passing attack as a multi-facteted "passng machine" that includes passer, receivers blockers and fakers - all meshing together to create a potent attack. Whatever the reasons - Isabella's short arms, too many OL penalties etc etc. - if it ain't working, it ain't working, and changes...

    Budda Baker has COVId

    Whether or not vaxx's work, don't work, allow post-injection infection yada yada...it will be somewhat of a crap shoot where you get to roll the dice and take your chances - & let fate determine the outcome. Only sticky wicket is - not getting injected and injecting others because - oops! - you...

    5 Things Needed to Win 11 Games

    I'm looking for an upgrade in the Football IQ dept. i.e. Consistently making better decisions and winning the majorty of physical battles. Conversely - not being outsmarted by opposing QB's and our defense left on the field on a majority of 3rd downs.

    Day 3 of Mini Camp June 10, 2021

    Who stands out positively? Negatvely? What about position battles - especially CB? How are the high-profile FA's fitting in? Trying to find out how the Cards are doing is like staring at a brick wall. Waiting for Card news on NFLNet is lke following a League with 31 teasms in it. Doesn't the...

    The Cards Seem Confused About the Passing Game

    I'm not so sure our problems stem from the calling or execution of any single play because I suspect that - more than most offenses - Kingsbury's plays are designed to contain several options. The problem has more to do with Kyler either choosing the wrong option or executing that option...

    Cards sign CB Darqueze Dennard

    Granted, the bar between this year's CB's and those from previous years is set low...and the potential for improvement is certainly there... But it doesn't mean that this group will be a lock to improve. I think Keim & Co. is in full "Mud Against the Wall" mode (not that this is necessarily a...

    Zaven Collins vs Isaiah Simmons

    We're too hung up on stuff that worked 3 years ago and what stuff didn't work a year later Each situation is unique. If not, threr would be no changes in team performance/results from year to year.

    OTAs ??

    It would be nice if PFF or some other source posted a 32-team cmparison of how they handle OTA's - i.e. do any of the teams have a "secret" sauce" for the way they handle drill-length & number of sessions, how they teach the rooks the playbook, how much work tyey give vets vs. rooks etc. What...

    Arizona Cardinals sign QB Cole McDonald to future contract

    They released him - wonder whether it's to set the stage for a more seasoned backup.

    Bigger impact in 2021: Isaiah Simmons or Zaven Collins

    They're the Bobbsey Twins - How well one does, so will the other.

    AZ Cardinals sign CB Tae Hayes

    Could you play a guy like that spotted in man-coverage vs. short,speedy waterbug type receivers?

    Draft Grade

    I don't grade drafts - too many variables like injuries or faulty scouting input in a COVID environment. That said - I like that, in a fairly "flat" year talentwise, SK favored players with high athletic or leadership intangibles (presumably because high-potential prospects represented better...

    Draft Grade

    Four ways to grade a draft: 1. Value of each player as projected & based on how they looked on paper. 2. Value of each player based on how he does in ensuing action. 3. How each pick compares to other possible picks value-wise in terms of how they looked on paper. 4. Comparisons based on...

    State Of The Team

    On paper, we should be in the thick of it. But there are too many variables to be sure of anything. To me, the biggest variable lies in which players maintain solid attitudes/work ethic and which players decide to back off (This aspect of life as a pro is far from predictable - home cooking...
