Envious of Cardinals and Arians

[moklerman]

Man, was that game fun to watch and Arians really impressed me with how he calls a game. Didn't go into a frickin' prevent defense at the end of the game, was aggressive on offense and attacked the secondary all night long and pulled out a tough win.

He made a couple of poor decisions(the direct snap on the first 2-point try and the lack of targets to Fitzgerald) but his overall philosophy and approach are what I'd really like the Rams to adopt. Maybe it's too high risk but it was exactly how I like a team to approach things.

Have to be honest I love watching good football, when it's done right it's a thing of beauty, I can't wait until the rams show me the money shot - Britt, please don't take that literally and post something online!!!

Arians is a very solid coach and reminds me some of Martz. I am also jealous of the fact that the three other teams in our division have found successful coaching staffs with good offensive playcalling and coaching. We seriously haven't had that since Martz. How sad is that...

Fisher is Martz, but without the passing game and worthless play challenges.

That Cardinal D is legit. Chargers have an excellent offense.

I have to disagree with the Card's offense though. I wasn't all that impressed with it, at least their o-line. Palmer should have been dropped for big time sacks at least 2-3 other times that game by Freeny who absolutely missed the QB or didn't wrap up correctly and resulted in 1st downs. Chargers got some good pressure and couldn't finish.

Did like the playcalling though and Floyd is a beast.

Hell right now I am envious of Gus Bradley and Khan's Jaguars!

 

[tahoe]

sadly our rams are already in last place in the division with the divisions worst offense and worst defense. no where to go but up

I don't know that I'm in the camp of envious, but man did the Cardinals look impressive on defense last night. I guess I am more in the camp of *even sadder that the Rams have an even smaller window to win the NFC west, especially with their #4 QB entering camp!*

Go Rams!

Palmer looked pretty good. Many on this board love to discount the Cardinals QB, but the man can play football. 24/37 for 304 2TDs 0 INT. One observer would look at it and say "Palmer should have been dropped for big time sacks" while another would say "Palmer showed some unexpected escape-ability under pressure".

I think Palmer's going to have a big year. Even rivaling his salad days in Cincinnati before he hurt his knee type of good. He was really moving well in the pocket and for a statuesque QB, managed to avoid sacks and even rush for 30 yards on the night.

He'll throw some picks this year because the offense he's in is so aggressive but I think if that defense can stay healthy, they should pass SF in the division.

Foote was a beast by the way.
