Surgery for Prescott. Bad news for the Boys.
the way he played tonight it looks like good news. I'd like to think he would play better next week, but this is a lingering concern with Prescott not being accurate and on time with the ball. not saying I want him to be hurt though.

I’ve seen some fans say we should’ve drafted Lamb over Simmons. Funny thing is, Lamb has been a bit of a disappointment as well. Better than Simmons? Sure, that’s not hard, but he wouldn’t have been worth the 8th overall pick either.

Jefferson is obviously the guy we should have picked if it's a WR but at the time we were deciding between Lamb and Jeudy but then we made the D Hop trade. We should have probably taken Wirfs. 2000 yards 11 TD's in his first 2 seasons I don't think was all that disappointing given they had other weapons. Is he 8th overall good I don't know but definitely as you said better than Simmons.

If you redo that draft we should be deciding between Jefferson and Wirfs although obviously Jonathan Taylor in the 2nd round wound up being an incredible player who should have gone much higher but he was a Wisconsin RB so doubts.

It just sucks usually missed picks are we need this position, this missed pick was Keim trying to be clever and take a guy who can do it all and he wound up with a guy who doesn't play any one position well enough.

Seattle going to get an unsportsmanlike penalty soon for taunting. They are yapping a LOT.

That’s what good(albeit annoying) head coaches do.
Yup. It’s crazy to see an inspired home team step up against a supposedly superior team and QB.
Again, it’s a little disheartening when my 10 year old says this Geno Smith guy looks way better than Kyler. It’s hard for me to argue with him.

So true. Pete Carroll & Co. always manage to make average players look and perform better, while #BIRDCITY always looks as though no one has any idea what they’re doing.

I recall someone on the board once said that our WR coach Shawn Jefferson was really high on Justin Jefferson and suggested Keim get him but Keim preferred Lamb.

Perhaps the Cards should go with a George Costanza approach to Keim’s draft picks: do the opposite. I’m certain it would be an improvement.

Is this gonna be yet another game where Wilson is so so all game, yet gets the ball back and has a game winning drive in Seattle like he so often did when they were good… only for wearing the opponent’s jersey?
