Meanwhile, Stanton comes in, looks relatively calm and posts points.

(I'm not sayin'...)

Just makes me wonder: Should Josh be playing better? Should Josh be improving faster? Is it the play calling? Is it Atlanta playing scrubs in the 4Q? Did a certain D-Lineman - with a jersey # in the 90's - quit on Coleman's 2 long rambles late in the game?

There is very little about this team that makes me feel remotely pleased (Well, maybe the name "Cardinals" but that's about it).

Plummer is the only QB i have ever seen try a pass behind the back. And, it might not have been his worst decision ever. The problem with Rosen is, we were led to believe he would take care of the ball. Increasingly, he is doing very risky plays. He isnt as reckless as Plummer was, but he is getting close.

When were we led to believe that Rosen would take care of the ball? At UCLA, he was reckless at times with the ball. He was tall, agile, and could through any pass needed in the NFL. But, he has always been prone to turnovers.

2nd Biggest mistake this year was dropping Sam Bradford - biggest was Wilkes

Plummer was a more natural runner. Everytime I see Rosen run I think he's going to fall over. Just seems a bit uncoordinated at running. He's not slow, but he does look awkward when doing it.

In fact, it would be wise for him to work on all aspects of his footwork in the offseason. In the pocket, rolling out, running for his life, and going for the first down. Hopefully that third aspect won't be much of a problem next year, but he should train as if was going to be.

Rosen is nothing like Plummer..... Jake made a lot of bone-headed plays, but generally pulled his head out to make the 4th quarter watchable.

Rosen has made almost every game he's played unwatchable start to finish.

I know it was garbage time... But maybe Glennon showed him that there are options in the passing game, if you get rid of it fast enough.

Jake was a freaking fighter he could blow the whole game and at the end would start his magic. He was clutch and one of my favorite QBs...good memories and good times
