We Need More Talent On Offense

[ajcardfan]

Interesting comment on the telecast today. McBride said he doesn’t run precise routes. I take that is he finds the soft spot of the route.

Then he has very good instincts. Because he gets open more than anyone else.

bless Sam Howells little heart, but I’ll go ahead and say it l.

SEA has no shot next week in MIN if geno doesn’t start.

Except the game is in Seattle. Still not much chance they win, agreed.

Our oline is still garbage and our WR room is below average.

Yeah, they were sooo garbage this week! Dude, stop trying to be the hyperbole king. You're wrong, and also, you're stealing my schtick

What amazes me is Josh Allen. Maybe I’m remembering incorrectly, but I seem to remember hearing how he wasn’t accurate in college and the Bills were nuts for drafting him so high. KM is light years from the QB Allen is.

I also remember articles about how obsessed Allen was to improve and become a better QB. Allen was willing to put in the work to become a top notch QB. Our guy on the other hand thought he was already there coming out of college.

What is fascinating is that it worked. Inaccurate QBs usually cannot become accurate no matter how hard they try and how much work they put in. The gains are usually minimal. And Allen had this problem big time in his first few seasons. Yet he managed to turn it around. He worked with a QB whisperer and changed his mechanics, and managed to become the player he is today. An amazing story.

I searched for pre draft rankings of that draft. Only found maybe 3 or 4 rankings and one of them didn't have Allen in their top 25 rankings and another had Rosen as top QB at like #3 ranked in the draft order. Shocked me!

I remember it stunned me Allen was taken in the top ten that year. The write ups at the time said he was a huge risk.

Yeah, he had something like 53% completion in college I believe. I was thrilled they took him so we could get Rosen. Yeah....

The only think I'd look to add to the skill positions this offseason is some speed to replace Dortch. A low round WR that can punt return and handle the gadget crap and I'd add a starting calibre Vet WR that Kyler can lean on to replace Pascal.

I'd love Kyler to have an Adam Thielen type player. I can't really see much in FA. Maybe JuJu? Maybe Brandin Cooks if he takes a massive pay cut.

As someone who is originally from Chicago and was a life-long Chicago Cubs fan, I just don't vibe with the negativity, impatience and pessimism of like 1/4 of our fanbase.

Was???

When we watch games my wife says "no negativity" when they suck (which they do....A LOT!). Makes it hard to watch a Cardinals football game.....

The Cardinals would never admit it, nor should they, but I’m sure they thought they would have gotten more production out of MHJ’s rookie season. That being said, he’ll make a major jump in year 2. As he gets stronger, he’ll become a major force in the red zone, and that will free up McBride to score touchdowns. We need to continue to bring in and develop young linemen, especially on the interior, so Murray has more time for chunk plays to develop. And adding speed to the WR room is an absolute must. We need some quick strike potential, as it’s too hard to continue to have 13 play drives all the time. NFL defenses are too good at disguising their schemes for those long drives to go error free.
