    Time to trade David Johnson

    Do you think Kiem reads the public scouting reports before he drafts players? http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/david-johnson?id=2552377

    Maybe, DJ is a ...

    Read his combine scouting profile and tell me it doesn't read like it was written after the last couple pro seasons. It seems like the rookie year may have been an aberation. http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/david-johnson?id=2552377

    Carson Palmer: No ‘major areas of concern’ for Cardinals’ Kyler Murray

    What was Carson suppose to say? It wouldn't surprise me if he said similar things about Rosen early in the year. With that said, I'm not concerned with KM yet. If the bad things he does continue later in the season I will be. I wasn't a fan of the pick but he has done well enough that I don't...

    If Keim gets fired this season, who would you want as GM?

    The guy who does my taxes has a subscription to PFF. Anyone might be an upgrade at this point.

    When's the last time we had a franchise Tight End?

    I assume you mean a joker, aka F (flex), aka U tight end instead of a traditional Y (mostly blocking) TE? Gresham was OK (not great, but had some production ) in that role in Cinci. Once we got him we didn't use him as much and when we did it seemed like he would make drops at key times...

    It's a KK problem....Not a KM problem.

    I never mentioned 29 pts. I said unless the offense can score 24 pts or more you can't blame it all on the D whether the D gives up 24 pts or 44 in a game. The avg offense scores 24 pts. Bottom line is if our offense can't score 24 PPG avg then we don't have a good offense. If we had a bears...

    Franchise took a big step back today

    We were only down by 8 and KM threw a pick at the end of the 3rd that let them start at our 22 yard line and resulted in a TD. That was why we were down by double digits early in the 4th. 75% of D's gave up 21 PPG or more in 2018, so expecting anything less than that with our D is unrealistic...

    It's a KK problem....Not a KM problem.

    21 PPG is a game is a 1 TD improvement from last year, but it would be hard not to see improvement over last year, the bar was the lowest it could be. 21 PPG would make us as good as the Jets and 49ers were last year. 21 PPG is still a fairly impotent offense and without a top 5 D won't get you...

    The Official “Revolutionize The Game” Thread

    Positive: Despite all the sacks Murray doesn't have the most. Mariota has 17 compared to 16 for KM.

    The Official “Revolutionize The Game” Thread

    Too early to tell much. For every positive there is a negative. But I think the NFL will revolutionize his offense as opposed to the other way around. Once we figure out how to bring more balance (run) and complexity (personnel groupings, formations) to keep the D off balance I think it could be...

    Fire Steve Keim

    I'd love to know what goes on behind the scenes. Do our scouts give us good info and SK goes with his gut instead, or are our scouts bad and SK keeps them around anyways. Or is MB going Jerry Jones on us and pulling all the strings? I don't know much about our operations to have any clue why SK...

    I found a picture of Kiem's bathroom office.

    Polarized Thinking Has Taken Over this Board and I'm Sick of It

    Did anyone expect anything different unless it was a success out of the gate? The most controversial HC hire that I can recall, well ever. Followed by a controversial #1 overall selection. When you follow conventional wisdom HC hires and #1 picks most of the fans are closer to neutral about it...

    Defense sucked the life out of team

    The defense did their job in the first half excluding that long TD 30 seconds before it ended. Before that they had limited to them 7 points and had a TO. I wouldn't call that being awful all game. The TD at the end of the 3rd they gave up to McCaffrey was bad, but even then it was a one score...

    Comments by the Whiners on this Board have become Nauseating

    Bitching about the cards is a rite of passage. Is nothing sacred anymore? I haven't seen very much whining here. I've seen plenty of criticism but that's what happens when you aren't winning, especially coming off a 3 win season. Pro tip: There is an ignore option for people who want a safe...

    Defense sucked the life out of team

    I don't buy our D is terrible. The D fell apart late yesterday, but 10 of the points were gifted on INTs. They also held the Ravens to less points than the Chiefs. We also held the Lions to less than Eagles. Not saying those are world beater D's but they rack up wins.

    Crabtree has been cut

    At this rate we may just have to start fielding PS players for league minimum to keep the lights on.

    It's a KK problem....Not a KM problem.

    We share the same hope. The problem is turning around your scheme in the NFL is like trying to turn a cargo ship. It is a slow process and I think part of what will keep him from starting sooner than later in earnest is that I don't think we have the right players to be able to emulate something...

    It's a KK problem....Not a KM problem.

    True, but Air Raid in this day in age is almost a philosophy as opposed to unique plays that only exist in the Air Raid. Any offense that is using clearouts with rub or crossing routes is technically using Air Raid concepts even though they aren't routes exclusive to Air Raid. Same with using...

    It's a KK problem....Not a KM problem.

    YES! Thank you! OU has a power run game and uses 12 personnel quite often. They are closer to those modern NFL offenses that everyone likes to point to than they are to KKs offense. Where can I find stats on personnel and formation groupings? I feel like I can count on one hand the number of 2...

    Defense sucked the life out of team

    Let's boil it down... Do we have enough a talent on the D to function as a serviceable D for 80% of the games? If so, blame the players and coaches for not executing and scheming. If not, blame SK. I think when we get Pat P and Alford back it really changes things for us because it will make...

    Defense sucked the life out of team

    I agree. But drops are part of the game also. Sometimes the QB misses a throw, sometimes a receiver misses the catch, such is life. The defense can lose the game for us for sure, but they don't prevent the offense from being able to score points when the time of possession is equal. Offense is...

    Stop it

    I don't think KM has been near universally praised. There is plenty of a criticism everywhere. I don't see people calling him bum, but I don't see much of that here either. The problem is KM was sold as a turnkey elite QB you would sell the farm for if you had to. We knew that wasn't the case...
