Is there a single Cardinals fan here that can actually credit an opponent for a well played game?

dude you got a turnover for a td
A missed fg that was short!!!
You got a drive that was half on penalties. Don’t say we got a lot of calls we did. We out gained you by 100 yards
You got a 4th down stop.
You got a wr run backwards!! To give you the ball back.
Then you have a coach who went for the tie from 49 yards out!
And you want FN credit! Get the hell out of here

I hated that call, too. Kyler has missed that throw at least a couple times this season. I also didn't like the FG attempt on 4th and one. If we make the FG, our defense probably would have let the 'Fins march down for a winning FG. Take a gamble and chew some more clock.
I agree with everything you said here

I can give credit to both teams on this one. But we are fans and I'll be critical when the coach doesn't have any situational awareness at the end of an important ballgame. That last 4th and 1 just got me is all. Lol. I was fine the whole game win or lose...

For everyone mad about the last play call, it would have worked if Kyler had thrown a decent ball.

We got out coached

fourth down... we got a hot young QB... the best WR in the game and a guy with legendary hands....

what we don’t have is a big running back...

so yeah... run into the teeth of one of the best defenses in the nfl

Penalties, fumble by K1, poor crunch time play calls by KK and no answer for Miami offense. This entire weekend has sucked

Agreed I'm just saying at that point in the game I'm going to Hop or Fitz, or frankly fake a handoff and hit one of the TEs.

A good throw gets it and Kirk had a great game, but at that point in the game I'm going to the guys with the great hands, or to the guy they don't expect us to throw to.

not having Drake was key there and on the stop on 4th down, Kyler was tired from running so on the 4th down they knew he wouldn't run it and stopped chase. On the 3rd down play KK didn't trust the OL to run it having not got any movement on the 4th down play, so he ran that pass play and Kyler made a bad throw.

Again, kyler throws much better running left than he does right.

I think Zane was not happy with the hold the way he was looking at the punter but it seemed like a good hold I think he just didn't get all of it

It is SO frustrating. The game was ours to win, he took the ball out of Kylers hands


So much for not being conservative. Half yard to gain run it twice for gods sake and send a message to the OL to get it done

he shows his true colours again. It almost seems like whenever his ass is on the line he buys more time with a decent game, then it’s straight back to the bad game plans
It is really a thing with him, 1-2 good games, 2-4 bad ones, than another 1 or two good ones and so on. It is the same since 2016. If you look back was like that back then with the Dolphins and with Broncos. He isn't a great DC he is the "my system Works DC" that you need to get in reality check every week. But KK doesn't do that yet. We did stop them once or twice the whole game and they aren't that great on Offense and scoring 31 points ... if you lose a shoot out playing against refs and your D on some point, it is bad.

Not having faith in beating bills now....
why did you have faith to begin with, the Bills are a good team. Great D, Great running the ball and Allen can sling it deep with his fast WR. This was a toss up from begin...

I still think Murray got his bell rung on that 3rd down scramble. He took a big hit and they went super conservative with him after that. Not making excuses just trying to make myself feel better.

This has to be it was the D players had against his head... Normally you see flags if a RB gets hit so ... but today Miami could do that to the Franchise QB...

Sometimes I wish we had that nasty Headhunter DC ... exactly for that kind of teams that see that they aren't called for most of the stuff and then take shots at your players...

I mean .500 is about where most on this board had us.

Count me in on that prediction. All the injuries to the Whiners have taken them out. I thought we would be fighting it out with the Rams for third-place in our division. With the Whiners all in the hospital ward, we are suddenly in a position to contend.

I think we have a chance to go 5-3 in our last 8 games. That gives us 10-6 which should be good-to-go for a playoff spot.

Our D cannot keep giving up 30+ points. One thing to have the happen with RW---but Tua played in just his second NFL game--with no preseason work. We're one and done in the playoffs against a balanced team

Losing big games like this one is the Cards MO since Methuselah. They had a chance to take over first place in the Division---but laid another big rotten Cardinal egg in the nest.

Kliff has sucked on his play calling.

Is it my memory, or did we ever throw over the middle much? What happened to Hopkins? And why go away from what worked earlier when we needed 1 yard and ran that option that Murray kept for 3 yds. How do they stop that play if we run it again? And that last 3 and 1 yd out pass can't work when the whole miami team is playing up close to stop the 1 yd play. On both of those last 2 why not fake a run and hit Hopkins or Isabella long for a TD or Fitz over the middle for a quick turn around which always seems to work.

Did Miami just have a perfect D game plan that took all those plays away?

We got to gamble some on those 3 or 4 and 1 plays, by taking a shot down field. That is how great teams play, like Big Ben and the Steelers, the Saints, Falcons, etc. You can't play with fear on those type of plays, especially when we don't have a bruising back who can instantly move the pile for a couple yards. Which, by the way, is what I have been saying we need to draft next. I am tired of us getting stopped on short yardage plays. It's sickening. Just draft a bruiser, or at least teach one of your DTs to slam it down their throats on short yardage. It isn't that hard to do, if you just do it.

And one more thing, chew the hell out of our Dbacks for not tackling properly. These swing your arm at them as they run by and close your eyes and dive at their feet BS is just that, BS. I think a couple of our guys are just plain gutless when it comes to tackling. If our S can make tackles all over the field, why the hell can't our DBs?

Their D coach beat the hell out of our D coach today. And with them having a QB starting in only his 2nd game, it should have been the other way around for sure.
