1 – I am not giving up on the Kyler Murray-Kliff Kingsbury tandem.
2 – I don’t understand why Kylie Fitts get more playing time than Dennis Gardeck on defense. Yes, as I have been a Gardeck-fan from the time he got on the team, I might be a bit subjective, but it is a completely objective point that Gardeck is more productive than Fitts.
3 – Did you see the new edition of Flightplan during the week? What stroke me the most was how quiet it was in the few stadiums that were in the episode. You don’t sense that on the broadcasts with the fake noise and from the announcers always “talking close to you.”
4 – Well, the first time the offensive line held up, Murray threw 40.2 air yards on a throw that ended going 59 yards for a touchdown. The longest touchdown the Rams have given up this season. In a horrible game, that matters to me.
5 – Interesting that you could see a marked improvement with the defensive line with Leki Fotu back (no, I did not confuse him with Domata Peko. I did look at the numbers).
6 – That’s it. Fire Zane Gonzalez. Enough is enough.
7 – It confuses me that I can see that the limited Jared Goff is always beating the Cards with rollouts, yet apparently no defensive coordinator can see it. Yes, I am aware that stopping it is easier said than done, but COME ON, MAN!
8 – Some say the season does not start before Thanksgiving. Oh boy, are the Cards screwed then?
9 – For the second game in a row Kingsbury showed really good clock management at the end of the first half.
10 – Have you noticed any pass rush from Devon Kennard during the season? No, me neither and then suddenly in the first half he looks like Chandler Jones (okay okay okay, but you get the point).
11 – I cringe every time I hear someone (like, for example, the announcers in this game) say “oh, the Cards are only a Hail Mary from having an 0-5 stretch” as if there was something wrong with that victory. I must inform everyone that a Hail Mary is part of a football game. It is an allowed play. You can score on it, just as it can be intercepted, go incomplete or result in a fumble if caught away from the end zone. It is a legal play, in other words, and the six points count equally as much as any other touchdown.
(They are also a few field goals and yards from having a very different record, but nothing can ruin arguments like facts, so no reason to bring it up anymore)
12 – I am not saying that Chris Banjo is suddenly All World, but it was easily his best game as a Cardinal.
13 – Byron Murphy certainly don’t miss many tackles, huh? Of course, having to make the tackle means you have let the receiver catch the ball in the first place, but still…
14 – Man, that was an embarrassing performance by D.J. Humphries. He must feel violated today.
15 – The entire season, the Rams had given up two touchdowns in the second half, and the Cards scored three.
