Demercado busts one for a TD!

 

[urs]

So you just don't understand football and blame the QB by default

A lot of that around here. Kyler's definitely not playing his best today but he's getting zero help outside of TM

 

[AZfaninMN]

It’s really not. It’s more of a comment on the reality that if he can’t come close to matching the play that contract is worth, you have to move on because that contract kills the cap and the ability to get better.

The contract kills the cap whether he’s here or not. It’s ok to be frustrated with his play, but the contract isn’t his fault. Every player wants to be paid highly to play this game. He happened to get paid higher than his worth. He’s still only 26 and has a chance to be better. Hopefully the GM has a plan to get him better playmakers.

TD Demercado!!!

 

[BirdGangThing]

Demercardo was Demergone-oh

 

[Harry]

I’ve been watching but I wanted to post about replay on the board. Read it after the game and see what you think. Nice run by De!

 

[GatorAZ]

Targeting Dortch and good things happen.

 

[Mainstreet]

Always good to get the touchdown no matter the score.

 

[Crimson Warrior]

wow

 

[kerouac9]

Let’s Gooooooo Cards +21.5!!!!

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Going for 2 and it's no good

We've gone for 2 the most in the NFL this year

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

Nice TD, now Purdy gets another opportunity to throw to a guy with nobody within 20 yards and continue his "MVP" season

 

[Crimson Warrior]

This oline can obviously run block.

 

[Proteus]

Wow. DeMercado with a 49 yard touchdown run!

2 point try is intercepted. Oh well.

 

[dscher]

This passing game is pretty horrid

 

[unseenaz]

Wow. DeMercado with a 49 yard touchdown run!

2 point try is intercepted. Oh well.

Shoulda ran the 2pt conversion too.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Horrible decision to go for 2.

 

[ajcardfan]

I would not have bet on us scoring over 20 today.

 

[MaoTosiFanClub]

terrible pass. But again odd playcall with McBride being only guy on the roster that can win 50/50 balls

 

[jf-08]

Demercado showed a great burst on that touchdown run.

 

[AZfaninMN]

Okay. Where does he rank among the NFL’s week one starters? Can we hold him to the same standard we hold 2022 Mr Irrelevant Brock Purdy?

You mean the MVP candidate with playmakers such as CMC, Aiyuk, Samuel, and kittle? With Trent Williams, the best LT in the game, blocking for him? Get him better playmakers in the league then sure why mot

 

[Russ Smith]

This

Why isn't he looking down field?

If you mean the screen to conner it was clearly a called screen we had 2 OL releasing if he'd tried to go downfield it would have been a penalty.

 

[Evil Ash]

This passing game is pretty horrid

That tends to happen when your wrs suck

[CardsFan88]

Two receivers near the 2pt pass and the defender is allowed to have it come to him like a pass.

 

[Russ Smith]

terrible pass. But again odd playcall with McBride being only guy on the roster that can win 50/50 balls

I actually think he was throwing to Wilson but missed him?
