The team won. Stanton sucked.

This, so much this. People who cite Stanton's win/loss record while avoiding his career completion and INT/TD stats are kidding themselves. There are 60 guys on this planet at least who win the games he won with the defense and supporting cast he had. I'm disappointed he's our backup, if only because we know what he is, and that's a below average backup. Oh well.

Definitely lame to hear about Nkemdiche.

Back to the Stanton subject though, if we do keep three, I would imagine that Drew would be the starter in the short term for Carson, and if there was a really long term injury (knock on wood), Gabbert would get more time than Drew.

Darren Urban @Cardschatter

Bruce Arians, on @ArizonaSports, asked about the No. 2 QB spot: "Oh, the decision is made." Stanton is the guy. Gabbert improving.

you know -- does it really matter?

if Palmer goes down for a signficant part of the season -- the Cards are toast (like nearly every other NFL team)

if Palmer goes down for 3-4 games -- im not sure how anyone can be that much more confident in Blaine Gabbert vs Drew Stanton

neither has fared well in regular season action

Cherry picking stats. When called upon to play significant time as the starter in 2014 he was 5-3 with a rating of 78.7 and 7 TD's to 5 ints. Then the ONE game he started he started in 2016, he won and threw 2 TD to 0 int with a rating of 77.1.

I'll take that out of the backup QB any day. He doesn't cost the Cards games when he starts and that's what you want out of your backup QB.

You know who was also decent in 2014? Peyton Manning. Times change and people's ability changes. Stanton has done nothing but suck for the past 2 years.

Google Drew Stanton stats. What do you see on the front page? Same stats I posted. Should I look deeper to find some that says he sucks less? Bottom line is he has been terrible for the past 2 years.

I'm not going to put in any effort on this except to say, What has BG's record been?

I still think Stanton deserves to be here, although Blaine has looked good. I hope we carry 3 QBs.

Every time I hear Blaine, I picture this in my head.

He started 1 game last year and threw 2 Td's to 0 int and they won. That's what I base a backup's performance on and not the random series here and there. He doesn't make the plays that costs the team wins when he's been put in they starting role.

For crying out loud, he's 6-3 as a starter, what do you want from your backup QB? I don't know what the league average record is for backup QB's in a starting role but I do know it's far below .500. No, he's not a superstar. If he was, he'd be starting for another NFL team. He's exactly what you want in your backup QB.

we won even with his poor peformances
i didnt mean just stanton but especially amos, the special team coach

You got that right.

The pass on special teams is a definite risk for this year. Amos either has his redemption or becomes Arians' albatross.

If you read Arian's book, Amos isn't going anywhere. Bruce won't fire any of his coaches.
For whatever reason, ST play dipped significantly since BA came to town. Most everything else has improved though, so I'll live with it.

Go Cards!!!

He could be reassigned though :)

Quality control?
