The Cardinals did not shut down the run.

I'm tired of hearing this....

Coaching staff and Jake shut down our run. Williams was averaging over 5 yards a carry, and Stewart was averaging over 4.

They did not stop our run. We did!!!!

We got away from the run way too early, then tried to force the passing game when it wasn't there. Terrible performance by our QB, and terrible playcalling by the coaching staff to keep trying to force it. There wasn't even that much pressure.

Stewart and Williams had only 15 combined carries..... 15!!!

yeah if you would have told me we would run the ball 16times, ALL GAME i would have told you that you were crazy. Our game plan stunk. why didn't we play panther football? instead we decided to be pass happy after the first drive(where we did whatever we wanted). but too late to complain but damn who was coaching that game? didn't seem like fox or coordinators had an interest

Agreed 100 percent!!!

pete

we made the same mistake that atlanta made last week. there was no reason to totally abandon the running game like that.

i agree 100%

we stopped ourselves and embarrassed the hell out of the organization doing it.

sad......

After the 1st drive, we had 6 carries for 9 yards for the rest of the 1st half. Sorry, but that is shutting down the run. By the time the half was over we were down 27-7 and couldn't afford to keep running the ball. 6 carries in the 2nd half for 25 yards, but the first run was a 15 yard carry, followed by negative yards on each of the next 2 carries. After that first 2nd half run, it was only 5 carries for 10 yards or 2 ypc. The run was shut down hard.

The YPC stats are nice, but way overinflated by the 31 yard run on the 1st drive.

When your QB throws a a pick almost everytime you have the ball its not hard to shut down a offense. I like Jake but this has been one of his worst years ever. He has not been consistent at all. Most years he gets better around playoff time but this year he was just off all season.

I agree the Cards didn't shut down our running game. We just didn't run at all after the TD from Stewart. Jake should have let Williams & Stewart do some run more than throwing it. Hopefully this game will be a wakeup call to stop doing this poo & run the ball more when you're at 1st or 3rd down when the field goal is too far to risk throwing the ball.
