1. This was bad. It's hard to see the Cards being a playoff team. I feel like I should be writing, "It's the way they lost," even tough they won.
2. I'd run more no huddle. Palmer seems better in a hurry up offense. Weird!
3. I don't know if Palmer's done but if this is all he has, he's not a playoff QB.
4. Long runs will be rare.
5. Worse O-line since Warner quit to save his life.
6. The receivers need to run better routes.
7. They should have kept last year's safeties. That's the biggest D problem. A good anchor DT would help
8. Bethel is starting to get it; Williams isn't. Cut Williams!
9. Iupati & Veldheer can no longer handle speed rushers
10. Baker needs to play though he'll make mistakes. He's got a big future.
11. The Cards had too many players get too old at the same time.
I think the coaching staff kept believing, stating last season, that these older guys would return to form. As futurist Joel Barker says, "A major planning failure often results from believing the future will merely be an extension of the past." Things change!
