Game Thread: Arizona Cardinals @ Seattle Seahawks

[Cloud]

After giving up another big play... they just stifling this offense right now.

Hah yup it is one of those games.

Mr. Sherman. Plz dougie

You realize that these people don't watch this team 1/10th the amount that Seahawks fans do. They see highlights, maybe look at the stats and go on with their day. They really don't give a crap.

First of all are you saying that fans know more than anyone who played/coached the game if they see more if it? And second, you do know that both of them work for KJR and not only watch every single minute of it, but break down game film. Millen watches every play of every game multiple times.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't disagree with what you said more. Just flat out wrong.

 

[Doublejive]

What maybe five or more today,wouldnt that be something.

 

[Cloud]

We gonna eventually capitalize on these INTs right? Gotta?

I'm shocked this game is still 0-0.

STEP UP OFFENSE.

Hard to call plays when your team isn't creating lanes for your running game and isn't doing a good job of pass protecting. I'm not always happy with his calls either, but how many offensive plays do they have a game? I'd probably complain about maybe 5-10 of them.

Occasionally some of his calls work (I.e. on first down he ran a QB draw with a 5 wide set for a 5 or so yard gain) but when you have an offense built around a power run game I think the offense would be more effective with a more vanilla play calling.

Plus with the offensive line as bad as it is I think the Seahawks would benefit from more play action. With a threat like Lynch in the backfield, I don't think the Seahawks should ever go with an empty shotgun set. When you don't have a running back in the backfield, the defense does not really have to keep on its toes for a run.

Wow. He looked like the intended target on that play. Guess being a slot receiver most of your career kind of helps reading that type of route. Fitz doesn't look the same though. He's clearly lost a step and isn't as aggressive as he was a couple of years ago.

SHERMAN!!!

Sherman really making his case for DPOY!

Kuechly with 20 some tackles today though. It's gonna be Sherman, Earl, Kuechly and possibly Quinn

 

[Cloud]

Yet.. another HIGH throw from Wilson.

What is going on?

 

[Cloud]

Holy shit what a catch...

 

[Judge Fudge]

No, I'm saying when you have guys like that talking about teams then chances are they have no idea what they're talking about. Troy Aikman knows a hell of a lot more about football than I do. Then last week he says "that's surprising that Gore was able to get those yards against this Seattle defense".

1. Our strong suit on defense is the pass.
2. Gore's been gashing us for his entire career.

The point is they don't have the bandwidth to follow all the teams and most of the crap they say is the standard shit that some staffer probably told them to say. The local guys know a hell of a lot more about the team than they do and you can tell that a few of them aren't too hot with Bevell.

I didn't like it when they called two straight running plays when they were in scoring position in that game a few weeks back when we were not having success running it all day. There are times I question things, but the plays you speak of have other factors in play. Again, if the line isn't protecting him and he is scrambling and creating his own plays because of it more than half the time you have to fix that before any play caller will find great success. That's just how I see it. The problem with this offense is the front line period. Play calling isn't their biggest concern. But I know I'm in the minority so I'll leave it at that. Back to the game.

Great call.. great play. What a throw.

 

[Doublejive]

Man this has intensity like a playoff game.

 

[Doublejive]

The Cards are blitzing like mad on us.
