Please, Larry, give us one last dance before you retire

If you know nothing about Larry Fitzgerald, two plays from the Cardinals victory over the Eagles last Sunday provide insight about who the Cardinals receiver is as a player.

The first came late in the second quarter when quarterback Kyler Murray, flushed from the pocket, rolled left and threw to Fitzgerald in the corner of the end zone. Eagles cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman stood in front of Fitzgerald, but Cardinals quarterbacks learn early on the concept of "covered” should not keep them from throwing the ball to Fitzgerald.

And Murray did.

Somehow, Fitzgerald, vision a bit obscured by Robey-Coleman, caught the ball with his hands extended, bobbled it a bit, then fell backward with the most famous rear end in Arizona landing in the end zone for a touchdown.
