Did you guys notice him and Haley get into it big time during the last drive? Haley was yelling at Boldin don't call me that or something like that and I don't think Q was in either on the last few posessions?

The only thing I care about Q is two more weeks to get himself close to 100%.

He was pissed cause he wasnt on the field and we had Pope spread out wide instead.

yeah the yelling on the sidelines was a little weird to see. he knows the offensive coordinator needs to be calling the game, not dealing with players. I don't know if he was just jealous that Larry was the man or what. He oughta be happy he is going to the bowl. if the steelers/ravens lock in on Larry, he'll have his shot to be the man on an even bigger stage. Hopefully the rift is settled before the big game.

I can't believe anyone would defend Boldin. His team is driving for the lead and game clinching score and he's yelling with the offensive coordinator?

Yep, what everyone is saying above.

Q just wanted to be in there. But I imagine that they were still keying him on blitzes like they were all game.

NOBODY saw a screen to Pope coming. Nobody.

Can't blame Q for wanting the ball. It doesn't matter Anquan had a big role in this game, yeah it was a catch here and there but once he proved that he was healthy you could see the Eagles keeping two guys on him in blitz situations.

Q was the best decoy we could have had. A lot of things would not have been open if Q didn't play.

We do this together.

Q may have threatened to sock him or something because it looked like Haley was repeating "Go ahead!"

No big deal though. Just the heat of the game...

I'd be upset if he didn't want to get in there and play!

I am stoked about the game but let's not act like Boldin screaming at Haley was a positive. It is good that he wanted to be in there but he acted like a complete idiot.

Boston Red Sox were called idiots and they won the WS!
Arizona Cardinals are called idiots, and they will win the SB! ;)

If Boldin hadn't been yelling the Cardinals might not have won! Everything happened perfectly!

Q wanted the ball. Typical of star players. No problem. He will be ready and able for the Super Bowl.

I feel that Boldin was wrong. You don't publically lash at out you OC in front of everyone, the rest of the team sees that and could have been a distraction. Cool that he wants to be out there but that's the coaches call not the player, Haley felt comfortable with who he had out there, wait for your number to be called.

But other than that great win and performance especially from Larry.

While it was poor judgment by Q, it is a non issue now. I have a feeling Q will be our x factor in the SB (Pitt/Bal will do everything in their power to stop Fitz after the last 2 weeks).

Exactly! Stuff happens in the heat of battle. Q contributed to the win by his clutch reception just before the Rackers FG to end the first half.

He's an emotional guy, who let his emotions get the best of him. He has two weeks to cool off and PLAY IN A SUPER BOWL. Somehow I think that will be what he remembers about this season. :)

This is not the first time that has happened with Q.

I have done the same thing in rugby. It is the heat of battle. Nothing more, nothing less.

To make a big deal out it would be absolutely ridiculous. Is that any worse than Warner and Haley getting into it after the first series?

Try as some may to make something out of nothing....it is nothing. If you don't like it I would understand. But it is a part of sports.

That was as stessful a situation as you can have in sports. That final drive was not just against the Eagles, that was against the stigma of "The Same ol' Cardinals"

My advice to all, stop nitpicking at meaningless details and enjoy the win.

I am sorry, but I would much rather see Q upset about not being involved, than having him just sit on the sidelines, not caring at all. I can see Q being a big difference maker in the SB.

This is normal. Top players always want to be in there and get the ball. Happens on every team. No big deal.

Apparently Q left the locker room and the stadium quickly after the game. In Fitz's presser they asked him about it but he just said the company line.

Not good.

Can the mods merge these two threads???????
