You didn't really believe in a win, did you??

[82CardsGrad]

Tonight was the official unveiling of all that is wrong with this team...

- Age showed up... Bethea, Williams, Dansby, Frostee... That catch by Baldwin on Wilson's scramble was a pathetic display of athleticism by Bethea. Embarrassing really...

- Badger is no Badger no more...

- The loss of Calais has killed this team. And is it concerning that Olson Pierre appears to have more upside than Diche??

- O-Line... They suck as much as any other oline this team has fielded under BASK...

- No QBoF...

- No legit threat at WR after Larry.

Also, was I the only one who was frustrated to see the Hawks field a very promising CB opposite of Sherman> When we've struggled to find anything at CB opposite of PP21?? Ugh....

 

[Broseph]

No, but I thought it would be close.

 

[82CardsGrad]

But it was!

 

[NJCardFan]

No but as the game dragged on it was painfully obvious that a healthy Cardinals team wins this game easily.

Ahh... the classic Cardinal trap. Perhaps Carson could've pulled out the W.. maybe. But he wouldn't have stopped Bethea from pathetically flopping. And he couldn't block for AP...
Nonetheless, Carson would've likely completed more passes and placed more pressure on the Hawks. But the odds are pretty good he would've tossed a key interception as well...
And the Hawks could play the "what if" game as well, as they had a ton of guys out, including Earl Thomas and Clif Avril!

We win this game with CP Or Wr's that can catch hard but catchable balls.

I'd say the later. WRs dropped several drive killing catches.

It was painfully obvious that a healthy Seahawk team would have won by about 90 to 14. That is what was obvious.

They're better but not that good. They're as done as we are if they don't fix a lot.

 

[82CardsGrad]

They're better. But not that good. They're as done as we are if they don't fix a lot.

Dude, they have Wilson... and Baldwin. And Lockett. And Graham. And Richardson. And Sherman. And Avril. And Wagner. And Clark. And Bennett. And Chancellor. And Earl Thomas. And KJ Wright. And a CB opposite of Sherman (Justin Coleman).

We got DJ... And PP21...

They certainly are not what they used to be. I said that to a Seattle fan behind me and he agreed. He said if they make the playoffs they would be lucky to win one game.

They’re one or two additions to their o-line away from being a Super Bowl contender...

Super Bowl? No way IMO, but we will see. Ain't going to argue about THAT now.

I️ didn’t say this season... I️ said one or two additions to their oline. Which they’ll have to address somehow in the offseason.
That said, I️ wouldn’t be surprised at all if they are playing in the NFC Championship game this season - though, the loss of Sherman makes that extremely more improbable...

All of that gets beat tonight with some grabs or just an OK QB.

 

[pmacLean]

Much as I hate their guts, I almost agree with this. If they had a better line and could run at all... well that score tonight would have been embarrassing ... bad enough to cause BA to retire right there on the field ? We are just not that lucky.

 

[82CardsGrad]

That’s because “all of that” wasn’t on the field tonight...

If Palmer is healthy, He get's strip-sacked twice and it's not even close.


JFC.... I'm defending Stanton now.

Good for you. Like him or not Palmer has taken a beating and still produced. He has taken more hits than anyone and has continued to perform.

 

[SoCal Cardfan]

There are a half dozen QB's I could name, who take a bigger beating, that consistently play 16+ every season.

Palmer needs to learn how to fricking move. or maybe.... stay with me now:


BA needs to get a better O-line..... or draft a mobile QB.


Or..... call plays that don't ask a statue.... to hold the ball for an eternity on 3rd and short.

 

[Stout]

But it was!

No. Not really. Not as close as the score.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Well, if Andre Ellington could run and chew gum at the same time, there's a six point swing prior to halftime. I don't know if they'd have won though. Stanton missed too many wide open throws but that's not a surprise. I think it was 2 very mediocre teams out there playing. Seattle is not even close to a SB contender in my eyes.

 

[Cardsfanstl]

This was a winnable game if the Cards executed on Offense. Too many bad throws and dropped passes.

 

[cardpa]

What the hell was Arians thinking with less than a minute to go in the first half? Have Lee punt and pin Seattle down near their own goal line and they simply run out the clock, even a touchback would have sufficed. No, instead he tries on 4th down fails, and give Seattle the ball almost at the 40 yd. line. They were lucky Seattle didn't get a TD.

 

[82CardsGrad]

No. Not really. Not as close as the score.

It’s all relative... I️ expected worse...
