Well, it's just not all Cardinals. Watching N.E. game. Third and 6, Brady throws it short and they get 5. Gronk drops one in the end zone. Kicker misses extra point.

I think the game is just a little bit harder to play than what it looks like at times.

Everybody playing the blame game. I blame the special teams for not scoring a long touchdown. That would've won the game for us.

This team was a game away from .500 meaning we had 6 wins going into today but it only seems like the "we're missing players" excuse only comes out after a loss.

EVERY team is missing players. LOTS of them. The Vikings are down their starting QB, RB, a couple O-Linemen and they have 11 wins.

The Pats are down their all-pro #1 WR, All-Pro LBer Donta Hightower, etc and have 11 wins...

And on and on.

This team stinks. It’s built on a bad o-line who can’t stay healthy and an old QB who can’t stay healthy. It’s time to move on... from everyone sadly.

Including Keim. Trusting him with a crucially important rebuilding draft seems like the height of insanity.

Dude can’t draft. He’s decent at FA/Trades, but clueless with the draft and wasn’t strong enough to make obvious changes on ST coaches when he should have.

Yeah do we really trust them to identify and pick the right QBOF? Honestly?

No. And that decision dictates the next three seasons where we’d have to figure out if whatever QB they took is the goods.

Sucked watching the Niners win again today with Garoppolo (back-to-back 300 ypg for him now), but nice (in a way) to see the Hawks dynasty ending in that evisceration by the Rams.

It could be a blessing in disguise, niners will pay up the ying yang.

Well we’re on our third. The eagles have jay Ajayi and legarrette Blount, not Kerwynn Williams and Elijah penny, and they paid top dollar to bring in lashing Jeffry, but sure. Go watch some more eagles games while they’re still winning lol. Our coaches did a great job getting us prepared for an east coast game at noon and after an opening drive fumble

they played a team that was in a death spiral.

Look... Gabbert sucks. He's been worse in every game, but I'm just finishing the game and are people really giving Niklas a pass on that last drop?! That was a HORRENDOUS drop.

The Cardinals secondary forced the Redskins offense to become a short passing offense. Per @pff Redskins' QB Kirk Cousins only attempted seven passes over ten yards and completed three of them for 52 yards and a 68.8 passer rating.

CB Tyrann Mathieu had a good overall performance on Sunday. Per @PFF Mathieu recorded 3 run stops in run defense. He allowed both passes thrown his way to be caught, but for only 7 yards. He received an 83.5 overall grade.
He’s starting to make some flash plays these last couple of weeks. With a full offseason I’m hoping to see the honey badger back
