Just flipped on the Pack-Fins game. Rodgers looking sharp in the 4th quarter. Regardless, after a cocktail this game seems enjoyable.

 

[pemory09]

The lousy Packers would destroy us if we played them today. I suspect the lousy Bucs will likely do the same.

Rasul Douglas again playing well for GB. Good thing we released him last year.

Wow, Tagovailoa is awful.

Typical. Cards release player A, he goes to team ?, plays near pro bowl football. Speaks to coaching and not player…

We are a farm team or retirement home.

This isn’t really defending Kyler as it more so acting as if Tua would’ve been the right pick had we gone Bosa in 2019.

The fact Tua has been really bad recently with the crazy supporting cast he has(Waddle, Hill, Mostert), others, & a crazy talented offensive mind in McDaniel is really bad.

Sadly, the Panthers again played hard and tough for Wilks yesterday. Amazing that we lacked patience for him (yes, I know, his lone season as our HC was the definition of dumpster fire), yet have kept an obviously mediocre KK here for four years and perhaps more. SMH, a lot, even though I’ve witnessed (as we all have) a ton of maddening futility with this team.

Drop the Wilks discussion. He’s not an NFL HC. He’s not even an NFL DC. Did you watch the Panthers last week against the Steelers? They were atrociously awful. Both Wilks and Kliff are examples of the garbage that the Bidwills have predominantly hired over many many decades.

Ahh I’ve been doing it wrong, I need to drink prior to a Cards game to make it enjoyable.

 

[Metcalf Rules]

Broncos suffering the old Cardinal win hangover!

I still like Tua, but he's got some work to do. His mobility from college not translating into the NFL finally caught up to him in McDaniel's scheme.

Rams doing their part to get us a better pick so far…

Rams doing their part to get us a better pick so far…

Nah, we want Denver to win this game.

Why?

Rams win means our division rival Seattle will jump ahead of us. I would much rather see Jalen Carter/Will Anderson go to Detroit instead of in our own division.

We have a stronger SOS(hate that Philly, Minnesota, & SF all have great records this year) than both LAR & DEN so even with tied records, we would finish behind both.


Best case scenario would be a tie between LAR-DEN, but that ain’t gonna happen.

 

[DVontel]

Though there is a small chance that Seattle goes QB if Geno continues to play bad.

How does Seattle jump ahead of us? They have the Broncos pick. We just lost to the Broncos so we pick higher than them with tie-breaker, no? And the Rams winning takes a tie breaker out of draft scenarios for us and the Rams because they’ll have one more win than us.

Doesn't head to head factor here? Denver beat us

Seattles not stupid. 8 good games from a career bust isn’t going to snow them into not taking a QB they can build around for the future.

Doesn't head to head factor here? Denver beat us

That’s what I was thinking.

If Rams win, then they’re a full game better than us and Denver both stuck at 4 wins. And if it’s just the two of us at 4 wins, head to head doesn’t matter?

Which is why I mentioned SOS.

H2H only matters when it comes to playoff positioning, not draft positioning.

Rams winning => Broncos losing => Seattle owns Broncos’ pick => Seattle’s pick stays high.

#KeimTime

We didn't release him.

He was cut by 3 teams in the offseason. He was on our PS for 4 weeks when the Packers signed him off the PS.

 

[DVontel]

Only for playoff positioning, not draft positioning.

Go look at any mock draft after we lost to Denver. There’s a reason Seattle(Denver’s pick) still was ahead of us. SOS factors in before anything when it comes to draft positioning.

 

[BritCard]

That’s what I was thinking.

If Rams win, then they’re a full game better than us and Denver both stuck at 4 wins. And if it’s just the two of us at 4 wins, head to head doesn’t matter?

No its only SOS. I thinks it's 100% Denver will beat us on that front.

 

[DVontel]

Idk, they went about 8 straight years with some awful drafts. Like here, there was a lot of stupid decision-making there.


We’ll see though.

 

[BritCard]

Watching the Wilson and the Broncos is like watching our offense.

Wilson timing all off. Guys open but QB not on schedule. Too long to go through reads. Only moves the ball when quick short passes. Run game sucks.
