It was totally the team. Look at the number of targets per game Ertz got compared to McBride up to the time he got hurt.
Agree. But the kid had to earn it. Targets don't come free and guys who play soft get less opportunities...up until a couple games back Trey played mostly soft. We been seeing him ramp up the effort to make the most of his opportunities the past couple games and it resulted in a game where he was trusted enough to get his number called a lot... I imagine if he keeps getting after it like this we will see lots more games where he has great stats.

He’s already earned it. Plus being the first TE on the cardinals to surpass 100 yards since 1989 is no small feat.

That was easy to call when he had 98 yards. Lol.
Nah, it was before that, and I thought he had like 50. Looking back it was 82 at the time but it was bam bam bam. He did get about 50 more from the spot he had at the time since he ended up with 131. I was starting to pull that comment out at the first of the three.

And, as the only Murray fan through thick and thin on this board, I deserved it too. LOL

lol, hey there are a few of us in that club PA! :)

I thought Murray played very well today, and I'm super excited to see MO build around him! Also for JG/NR to build a defense that will get the offense a few short fields every now and then!
