The Cardinals offensive line is like last season except we still have two healthy QBs. Something needs to change before we lose a QB.

but u know what kind of player is,and u still putting him on the field
if sowell takes other snaps,we seriously risk a qb injury

Sowell is like the Ryan Limdley of OTs. We knew how bad Lindley was just like we know how bad Sowell is.

A couple positives are the two runs by David Johnson where the offensive line didn't collapse on him and the play of Okafor. Also the badger looked good.

People really don't understand what we ask Peterson to do. We blitz more than anyone on passing downs. We pretty much put him out there by himself no help. Fans really have no idea how much worse it can be. Especially with all the new rules

I swear to hear some fans talk about him you would swear he's the worst pick in the history of the franchise.

What happened to the ol? Seemed OK the first 2 games and are not even showing up today. They just not in the mood to play? This is crazy.

This first half is giving me bad flashbacks... oline getting beat, Carson throwing picks and other ill advised passes and holding on too long, Peterson getting spanked... and this is against the Raiders.

I know, "its only preseason" but disappointing after the limited reps in games 1 and 2 were looking pretty good.

It's actually worse!!! Massie is much better than Sowell & are we really better at center?

Remember this OL lead the NFC with the fewest sacks allowed

He's highly overrated & highly overpaid for his production. Hasn't PP allowed like 24 TD passes the last 3 seasons? Wow

That TD stat is highly overinflated. Granted, Peterson has allowed a number of TDs, a number of those were on pick plays and botched assignments by others. I distinctly remember one last season when Foote was supposed to drop back in coverage and didn't.

That half of football totally changed the perspective. I'm really hoping the Cardinals mailed it in against a motivated Raiders squad.

This is OT, but the Isabel segment they just showed on tv was pretty funny.

I think it's great that the NFL is highlighting their stars like that - as real people with interesting personalities. :thumbup:

This is very discouraging put this way.

I think the offensive might be better served by playing the 1st quarter of the game 4 instead of having it off. We can't expect the D to carry all the weight this year and get very far.

Maybe slightly but come on TJ, you've watched every Cards game the last 2 years!!!
Teams attack PP almost every game with pretty good success. What I see from #21 almost every week isn't a mirage or me drinking to much, he's highly overated by most Cards fans & the media. Be real man.
