With how there’s bound to be reaction and overreaction, I’ll keep this intro brief.
The Cardinals started the season 5-2 and finished the season with an 8-8 record...with how 9-7 would have gotten them into the playoffs it was a brutal finish after a promising start.
Here’s what we learned:
#1. Kyler Murray’s legs are a phenomenal weapon...but not one you can build an entire offense around long-term
Murray came close to being the first player to pass for 4,000 yards and run for 1,000. But after a big hit in the second Seahawks game and playing some tougher defenses, running and scrambling room became rare, and the Cardinals started dropping games.
