Cards at Chickens 10-23-14 Official Game Thread

[TJ]

Actually a classy move by Seattle not punching it in

 

[Jetstream Green]

I'm in total shock that they kneelt down, I am stunned by Petey lol

 

[BillsCarnage]

Surprised he didn't go for points

Me too

Quite the circle jerk going on for Seattle right now by the announcers.

That happens when the opposing offense doesn't show up for four quarters.

 

[Zeno]

I have a lot of confidence in this team, not so much in Stanton though.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Time to go back to the drawing board

 

[AZ Sports Native]

That's 7 straight quarters of nothing, nada, bupkis, zero, nil, zip, zilch from this offense. Brutal.

 

[Finito]

Defense just dead tired at the end of that game

 

[Buckybird]

Be careful what you say dude. I brought that up last week & it didn't go over well. Don't you know that we're 9-1? I mean 9-2.

I hear ya! Everyone thinks we've locked up a playoff berth at 9-1, which is the farthest thing from the truth!!! Now we're 9-2 & a murderous schedule the rest of the way that began today.

I hate to be Debbie downer but with a suspect QB & a stacked NFC, I think it's reasonable seeing us sitting at home. :-( I'll make this prediction...IMO just like us last year, someone at 10-6 is home for the playoffs.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Hope we learned some lessons from this game

 

[AZ Native]

Cmon now! No Dockett, no DWaste, no Dansby, no Abraham, no Palmer, no Fitzgerald, a banged up Campbell, a banged up Ellington...
Man o man... When the Cards grab their 10th win, what will everyone say then!!!!

We are going to the playoffs:

 

[NJCardFan]

Meh. No one thought we'd go 15-1. Still the best record in the league. Still 2 games up in the division. As was said, we need to go 3-3 down the stretch and Seattle and SF needs to win out to even have a chance. We'll be fine as long as BA gets a better offensive gameplan.

True, but they tried to the play before.

Lesson 1: our offense is inept.

 

[nashman]

Arians needs to address the O in a major way!!! No excuses your calling the plays!

 

[Chopper0080]

Lynch still in the game

Why wouldn't he be? He took a break and asked to go back in.

 

[Broseph]

Seattle still has a really tough road to get to the playoffs, but they absolutely took care of business today so hats off to them. I think we will play much better against them at home though.

This is what upsets me the most. Who had the better record coming into today's game. The announcers want to crown them champions after the Cardinals second loss.

Yep. That's a very good team that took care of business and beat us at home. They did what was expected. Let's see how our boys respond.

 

[NYCARDS]

Settle down. This was a game none of us thought we would win. Defending champs playing for their lives, in their building with a backup QB, no Fitz. Teams grow and learn from these experiences. Let's take a derp breath and come back next week

Actually since the start of the current PO format every team that started 9-1 has made the PO's

 

[SoCal Cardfan]

Massie looked like crap all day.

Even with time, Stanton can't seem to come off his first read.

 

[GatorAZ]

True, but they tried to the play before.

They had to.

5-Bruce Arians has been developing gameplans, and calling plays longer than some folks on this board have been alive. His playcalls are solid, he rarely makes mistakes, and a lack of execution is not his fault. He isn't perfect, but no one is. Calling out his playcalling is stupid.

 

[Phrazbit]

I'm really surprised to see so many people ripping Arians for the play calling. As though he didn't want to be aggressive? What is he supposed to do if his QB is running into pressure and can't complete anything? I suspect that when the film is looked at it was the same types of plays we've been running all year, but Stanton was rattled from the beginning and was not finding his targets.
