1. Antonio Cromartie, CB. From the first snap, to the last Cromartie played like he was auditioning for 31 other teams. He may get a big deal from his opponent this week come March.

2. Justin Bethel, CB. While Bethel missed an importnt sack opportunity early in the game he was nails on the punt return units, forcing fair catches and recovering muffed punts.

3. Ryan Lindley, QB. FWIW, Lindley never put his head down, never looked disinterested or bigger than the moment. He's just not good enough tondo this job, and is stealing from any future NFL employer.

1. Bruce Arians, HC. Just a head-scratching game plan. After coming out throwing the last two weeks against superior pass defenses, you come out and run the ball over and over when the Panthers have one legit NFL defensive back?!

2. Drew Butler, P. I'm sure Drew is getting his share elsewhere on the board. It was never clear that conditions were especially bad for punting. It just seemed an odd time to get an epic case of the yips.

3. Tony Jefferson, S. It's hilarious to me that people thought that TJT was an MVP of the defense halfway through the year. Wasn't put in the best positon to be successful sometimes, but he also may have endangered his employment in 2015 with his play in the last 6 games.

2. Darnell Dockett's hair. Just an instant classic look that I feel bad we haven't heard more from this year. It should have its own Instagram and Twitter feed, surely it has some opinions on the honey shots for the upcoming NCAA championship game.

Cro getting a big deal? He was just as mediocre as last year and got a one year deal.

Hard to pick just three goats... But, with best sharpest hindsight glasses on... I think BASK have to be called to the carpet for taking a shot on Lindley and not bringing in a more seasoned vet as our 3rd string QB. Case Keenum was available and IMHO, offered a more credible shot at producing some type of professional offense...

Even without the forced fumble, Acho had one of his better games in my opinion... not saying he is starter material because you really want more of a consistent playmaker at that position on a 3-4 but he is solid depth :)

How does Lindley get hero this week after 80 yards and 2.9 ypa and last week gets goat with 300 yards and 8+ ypa.

CRO,,,honorable mention > flag

WTH was BA thinking......every first down run went nowhere :bang:

Goats:
1. Tie: Butler - was his jockstrap too tight?
Lindley - in over his ability level
2. Ginn - needs a new home next year
3. Peterson - lots of trash talk, but didn't tackle = exposed

What was DD's hair like? I saw when they put a picture of Cooper? up with Dockett across the screen.

Didn't see a hero. Goats have already been mentioned. Game plan especially baffling to me.

Lindley?

The guy that BA told after the turnover that gave us the ball at the 8 yards line not to throw in the middle if they were in a zone and he did it anyways?

Ginn and Butler have to be the top 2 goats. Ginn better not be back next year.

In the starting defense intro pictures- they also had Dan Williams wrong. Not sure who they showed, but it wasn't Dan.

Adjusted heroes for Dockett not being himself last night. Also, I'll be doing heroes and goats for the season tomorrow.

K9 doesn't want to see Cooper's face and neither do I. He's a bum and he's stealing.

As we say here in New Mexico... bueno bye

.

I seen that during the game & thought these guys don't even know who is who on this team. SMH
