    It wasn’t effective because we couldn’t run the ball. And Chandler Jones blew Tannehill up on the play action roll out.

    He was lights out. Of course it’s overshadowed by the poor performance as a whole but he’s off to a good start in year 2.

    I turned the game off in the 3Q.

    To be fair, Julio botched his opportunity’s. AJ was great but just didn’t throw his way enough.

    I can guarantee you that Jones wouldn't have had 2 sacks against us with Art Smith as our OC.

    No runs towards Jones, no TE to help block Jones, no screens in Jones direction. Just an all around terrible job by Downing.

    Both tackles were awful. OC was awful and tanney was bad. That kicker should be cut in the morning. Not playing in preseason showed. Why the hell we did not double team chandler jones makes no since. Taylor Lewan is way way over paid he got used! For all this first round early offensive line draft picks we sure do not have much to show for it

    Yes he was basically a tall Taywan Taylor but that's besides the point. The defense would be thinking a little more about Julio Jones than whoever the 3rd string string TE is.

    Figured all the networks would be on the Cardinals nuts after this game.

    So going back to the defensive side of the ball. Some common denominators to today's defense looking like last year's: Byard, Evans, and the large cushions on 3rd down. Evans looked defeated in the 3rd and Byard had that INT but beyond that is as average as you can get. They need to go ahead and put Rice in there early instead of waiting until the game is out of hand.

    No way to know that, but Tannehill had his games last year where he was sacked often. Art was not a popular OC for a lot of the same reasons people are complaining about Downing today.

    Some days you’re the bug. Some days you’re the windshield.

    I just think it’s short sighted to say we didn’t try and get the ball to him. He lead the team in targets and drops.
