3rd & 29 ?

[tnmike]

And still allowed a 1st down ? Remarkable

Screens all day long and we still get burned. VJ needs to go period

Everybody in the building except for Vance Joseph knew what was going to be called

Unreal how unprepared this D is.

 

[TRW]

It is the way.

 

[Hoodhero]

It is the way.

100% this

Yep. If you've been a fan for any decent amount of time, these things just kinda become the norm.

I wanted to throw my phone but I needed it to watch the game cause of being at work lol. I just knew they were gonna get a first down on 4th & 6. 3rd down defense was absolutely horrible today. Lots of situations to bring more pressure on 3rd & long all day but VJ didn't at key times. Game was a hell of a lot closer than it needed to be. Our red zone turnovers caused that.

 

[WisconsinCard]

That's cardinal football. I mean I watch a lot of football and I have never seen it happen to other teams so often. I mean even bad teams can get off the field in those circumstances.

 

[ajcardfan]

We gave up 6 points in the 2nd half. We won. VJ has this defense overachieving.

Yes, the 3rd and 29 scenario was a ******.

It is refreshing to see a Cards team win in spite of mistakes. Our history does not show a whole lot of that.

 

[Russ Smith]

Also remember teh 4th and 6 was the blatant hold of Golden that wasn't called.

 

[PJ1]

I am conditioned to not count on the D. The situation doesn't matter and never really has. They will bring you down quickly if you are feeling good watching the game.

 

[ReasonableMan]

Not defending Vance but Kirkpatrick got owned on that play. Our secondary looked bad all game

 

[Arz101]

I trust the offense more than defense. The D scheme and players are meh. Next year also D will be super meh as I fully expect VJ to be back.

How, KK is a playcalling idiot that never does anything right.

 

[BritCard]

The defense has been better, except on 3rd down. Which is kinda crucial.

If we could play as well on 3rd down as we do on others we might be good.

Is it just me or do Cardinals’ defenses do this a lot? It seems like I see this every year we play Wilson and the Seahawks.

It’s so frustrating seeing the opponent convert on 3rd and long.

KK has flaws. The man has #4 offense in the league.

i would love for someone with some expertise break down the all-22 on WR screens for the AZ defense and explain whats breaking down

i watch a lot of NFL football, and I see WR screens go for 3, 7, 10 yards. Yet the Cards give up 20 yarders with some regularity

i suspect it might have to do with PP and Dre not being the most physical corners at the point of attack, but there has to be more to this

Too much time is required to do that but I can tell you they constantly fail to turn the ball carrier inside. On any outside play you want to force the play back towards the majority of the defense. Instead opposing teams wall off the sideline and defenders have trouble getting to the ball.

Simmons showed his inexperience as a LB by failing to do that on the TD. Growing pains but he did a good job later in the game holding the edge so he is learning.

Dre showed his inexperience by not forcing him back inside on the 3rd and 29 play so that they could have gained 24 instead of about 8-10.
