I admit that I was not on the Murray train going into the draft. I was proven wrong. The kid is phenomenal.

The Hopkins trade on day one of FA was astounding. That kind of trade does not happen...ever!
I love the additions to the defense. I think Campbell was the best pick up of the three. The guy is a baller. I like Phillips and I think a healthy Allen will be a nice starting front three.

Anyway, here to eat a little crow(although I was excited by game one last year)


GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CARDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I would put this up there with the Hop trade if Cooper had a bloated and supposedly unmovable contract like DJ, but that definitely wasn't the steal that the Hop trade appears to be.

Murray more or less met my expectations for his rookie season and I think he demonstrated that he can be a top 5-10 passer over the length of his career.

I'm mostly excited about that because since I have watched the team, the Cardinals have never had a young QB that you should realistically get excited about.

Sure most of us were excited about Plummer and Leinart, but neither showed the ability to be a dominate QB like Murray has.

In the short term, the Cardinals have a top pass rusher, a good #1 CB, an All Pro WR, and a decent young LT. The Cardinals have all the building blocks of a good team, and I expect that they should be able to win 9+ games starting this year.

I wouldn't get too excited yet. I personally think it's more likely than not at the moment that there's no pro sports all year. Unless something drastic changes.
I’m still hearing the NFL intends to play a restricted season. Likely starting in the fall. 1 or 2 game preseason, no fans & pregame testing. Likely heavy reliance on local geography. Use only chartered flights. Thinking 3 tier playoffs. TV offering big money. A few owners want an entire season.

Good. We need the season to be played in one form or another.
