Coach bradley days in seattle look like its rubbing off on the jags! I wanna see more of the first half effort become more consistent! Go jags!!!
They are looking better, although with Poz out yesterday, there were times when the tackling left much to be desired.  They sold out to stop the run, and they did a good job.  If not for the one blown coverage, and then a slew of missed tackles, there was always the possibility the boys could have nabbed a home win.
The effort looked like a good defence! But the offence stalled as usuall! But also blackmon is out so no help Sad
Our offense is a struggle to watch.  

No offense doesn't help.but our pass protection was shocking yesterday and a bit iffy last week

We made palmer and Fitzpatrick look like studs

I know its rookies and journeymen but I would like to see further improvement soon


Kudos to Roy miller had a big game yesterday
That tackling though

Don't look now, but Branch is playing good football. 

Big issue remains pass rush.  I was irritated watching the jags call a soft zone coverage time and time again  only rushing 4.  Palmer had all day on 3rd down.

He had a really nice game.  First time in forever I can recall him making a play.  He made a couple of them.

This.. I thought I was alone. I gotta give branch props.
419 yards passing against. 71% completion rate. Not getting too excited about defense yet.

i was excited when they played well against the broncos, then the other games happened. i hope theyre more consistent this time.

Lol. Palmer had a career day and some of y'all think that the defense has gotten better.


I'll repeat Carson friggin Palmer had a career day...


I think he's only passed for over 400 yards like 5 times in his entire time in the league. 71% completion rating is abysmal.
Correction: Run defense is good. Our pass rush gets almost no push which leaves our very young secondary high and dry. If we get a pass rusher and depth at d tackle our D could be good. I'm very hopeful that Bradley can get our D on par with Seattle. That D is fun to watch. With a QB and Joeckle back, we could be in the running for a Wild Card spot in '15.
The rushing defense was awesome, and shut the Cards down.  However, the passing defense was horrible, and gave up massive yards.  I am hoping the Jags are able to find a pass rusher or two this next off season.

The Cards have nobody to rush the ball...of course the run d looked alright. Now the pass d on the other hand...

LOL,  I know, right??....

 

Even if you take out most of that YAC on Floyds TD with all of the mis-tackles, its still 300+ yards passing. Floyd was open on the play.

Yep, this ^^^

 

Sometimes you wonder what in the world people are looking at. 

 

I guess because they got an INT by a LB, people are getting all giddy like a school girl about the D, now...

 

The Cardinals haven't been able to run the ball consistently all season. 

Our Defense played well enough to keep us in the game.  They kept the Cards offense pinned inside their own 20 for what seemed like an entire quarter.  Our offense did absolutely nothing after the two early scores.

This game proved we need a real pass rush.

 

Caldwell im hoping is keeping an eye on any news of top tier pass rushers to sign in this offseason or the next. Im tired of drafting duds. Im willing to give Caldwell and Bradley a chance with this draft to find a Qb and take on the D-line / O-line like they did in the secondary this past draft but i really want us to supplement it and make the job easier by signing a proven pass rusher.

 

We will have the cap space and i always think a new regime should find 1 or 2 studs in the 2nd -  3rd years of a rebuild in FA to sign for long term success. Maybe not the first as the team is still shaping up but i think Bridgewater + 3 O-lineman + Drafted DE + Proven FA DE on a big deal would be a monster improvement for the team and would accelerate the rebuild process. Basically adding a little spice to the recipe and cooking at a higher temp. Just gotta be careful not to burn it.
