No knock on Dobbs…(2) weeks of prep…best you can expect…but not one pass play attempt down field more then 25 yards will not win in the NFL. Got to believe that Tune would have been able to stretch the field with having worked with the offense all training camp. Just saying. These type of loony Tune takes are so typical of our fan base. Tune would have been eaten alive today.

Silver lining, the three teams that will define our first three rounds of the draft…Texans, Titans, and of course Cardinals…are 0-3. And another team in the race for #1 draft pick - the Buccaneers actually won today vs. Vikings on the road.

Nick Ralis deserves a game ball. He called his first game beautifully on the road against a sell out crowd. Bad penalties in the 1st half gave the Commanders great field position. Cards tackled, sacked Howell 6 times. Had 3 takeaways to put the offense in position to do something. Unfortunately we saw too much Matt Prater. I'd rather see Matt the 'PAT' rather than Matt the field goal guy unless it's a game winning attempt. Somewhat encouraged by this first game. Go Cardinals.

I'm with ya, the Cards would have had a chance to win this game if they'd had a semblance of a quarterback on the field. Dobbs ain't it. I'd like to have seen their rookie play today...👍 He had two weeks with the team my man. Dobbs is a back up for sure but what were people expecting from the guy. We had a shot at a win and didn’t do it. Also our WR core is a joke. Yeah, yeah, yeah...2 weeks AND he was supposedly already familiar w/ the plays and the scheme, etc....yeah. 👎👎🙄

No matter how much I tell myself this team is going to be bad this year, I just cant help but still root for them to win. Losing just down right sucks, but I will never stop rooting for them. See everyone next week. Go Cardinals!

Tune would have been eaten alive today. Really??? Well Boss there’s really nothing more “Loony Tune” then picking up a guy (2) weeks before your first game and plugging him into your starting line up as your staring QB…the only other thing more “loony” would be picking a guy off the streets like you or me to play. Just saying. And that’s not talking like a “typical fan” base poster. If your looking for cohesive play…the offense did not have it. Tune might have been “eaten” up as you say…but not from the conservative play calling you were locked into by bringing Dobbs in. I counted (5) screen plays…numerous (10) yard curls…a few out routes…and no pass plays over 25 yards. That’s not a nock on Dobbs…but what do you expect. I guess you and I could come in and just hand the ball off, right? Play the guy that’s run your offense with your players. Seems reasonable and not so “looney”…as you put it.

Here's my 'woulda' 'coulda' 'shoulda' take on this one play in the first half. Dobbs to Ertz in the end zone has to be a Cardinal touchdown. That was an awful throw to Ertz. We might have a different result if that pass is completed for the touchdown.

Your opinion will never be the final say in any discussion. No team in modern NFL has started a 5th round rookie the first week of the season. Purdy was the 3rd option last season before his start. Monti crapped the bed not having a legitimate QB going into camp. Minshew, Brisset, or even Bridgewater would have won that game today. Coach G did a great job of getting this team prepared today. I’m encouraged. Can’t wait till K1 is back.

So yeah, besides the day 1 trade...he has a series of "issues".
