Skelton starts week 1

[WildBB]

Right choice?

No, it's not the right choice, it's the ONLY choice now, there's a difference.

The right choice would of been to get a better QB in here in the first place, anyone who signed off on the Kolb contract, anyone who didn't spin around in circles and froth at the mouth saying please God no, should be fired today.

Should of been last year really.

Instead we will see this staff again field a team with an elite WR and a bunch of scrubs as QB's.

That's just plain stupid.

I am never going to make the mistake of giving a crap about a QB again until they are worthy of it. I've admitted how wrong I was on Warner, still personally don't like the man as a player but as a QB for this team he was the only bright spot since Neil Lomax.

Since then we've been HORRID at getting any decent QB's other than Warner.

You still think Gabbart would have been a good pick for us? This year should say a lot about him.

I don't think so; Skelton has also done well in hurry-up mode (last season). But I actually like the idea. Have a completely different package worked up for Kolb and insert him when the offense needs a change of pace...

It'll happen. Kolb finally found good rytham to the offense in pre-season running it. They probably want to see him do it again soon.

FEED THE BEAN-

Everything good the Cardinals can do this year starts and ends with Beanie Wells- Skeltons health and growth depends on it- Fitz's records depends on it- the defenses rest depends on it - ST field position depends on it- RWILL is good but he will not make defenses cower- He will break their heart and spirit after The Bean breaks them down.

Now everybody talks about the time a QB gets to pass- but we need to reduce the time a defense gets to react to a quicker handoff occasionally- yea the slower developing draws and plays belong but We need to put the pressure on them not Our oline in the run game.

That will open up the WR's - give Skelton a full second more time in the pocket later in the halves- that is tried that is true- that is the way you become consistant in all phases of each game- We have to eliminate the run/screen game penalties- fundementally we pass practice way more than we run practice.

44% runs is the NFL average- Don't fan out of fear of injury we have a great back ups this time! at all 3 skilled positions! Seattle specifically has a better defense- don't test their 2ndary- rule it! Running on 3rd down is much better than a 5 receiver no protection turnover- again and again-
NFL defense will not stand for it! bust em in their chops with Beanie and RWILL- Punt is a good play with our defense.

I agree with you. And even if the run is ineffective early, keep running it. It takes more energy to play D-Line than O-Line. Eventually the opposition defense wears down, especially with a punishing running back. Too many teams abandon the run too early.
