One of the most notable aspects of the Cardinals’ pre-season success was the improved play of the “Big Nasties” on both sides of the line. Thus, I wrote Part I about this improvement during the pre-season.
After what we witnessed during the Cardinals’ historic 29-23 comeback overtime win in Las Vegas on Sunday, a great deal of the team’s success can be attributed to the impressive ways in which both the defensive and offensive lines stepped up just when the team need them to the most.
During the prep-season, it was a rarity of sorts to see multiple defensive and offensive linemen head the lists of the top PFF game grades.
