Let's see how they look this week vs Atlanta.  While the Falcons haven't been good this year, they have always been good against us.  And those receivers are pretty darn good.  At 6'1" and 6'3" those are not good matchups for Donte.

Fair enough, but even as a decoy we limited Murray to less than 200 yds.  

Injuries are part of the game and adapting to them are another part of it.   If he was on the field than he's is an asset for the offense.  

He was targeted 9 times with 7 catches.  Seems we bottled him up.  

As far at the catch that didn't count.  That was great defense.

he also still nearly managed the greatest catch in nfl history but the ball was thrown out of bounds

But Marvin McNutt doesn't play for the Cardinals...

Throwback reference to 2013 for the uninitiated.

The Cardinals were playing the short game as demonstrated by Murray's passing chart. He got catches but they weren't pushing it downfield 

They were playing the short game because our secondary took away the long game, thus, the OP’s point.

      Interesting that people are calling for our DC'S head, when we never would have been in the game if it wasn't for the defense.  Never should have gotten to OT.

      Philly's defense is great and they run the ball a lot and control the TOP (and they certainly will vs us - this is a big mismatch), so even if Bryce is at his best, I doubt he would have a chance to crack 300 passing yards.  Be damn impressive if he does though, but it all just depends on volume, efficiency, and most importantly... not turning the ball over.

      Even with Cam I don't think it would have been a hard sell. He always loomed larger than life, but most people that understand football understand the reality of the game. One wrong hit, one wrong step, and a career can be over. It's the thing I've been frustrated about most with every GM we've ever had, including Morgan to this point. We never really developed the QB room. We relied on our starters and when Jake and Cam fell apart, so did the franchise. That's the one position that you can't really afford not to develop a plan B, but we do it with regularity. Dalton wasn't supposed to be a serious threat to Bryce's job and Jack was never a threat to be anything at all. JMO, but we should always have a young guy we're trying to keep on the bench with at least 2 years in the system. If they're not getting it, move on, but always keep rotating guys through. It seems like 2-3 years really is the magic point for QBs to either get a handle or not. It's probably not going to happen, but I'd really like to see that 3rd QB emergency slot become a permanent place to work on developing young QBs. I think it could benefit every team in the league because it's so hard to carry 3 QBs on the roster with all the turn over during the season due to injuries.
