As the days go on in
training camp the expectations rise for Arizona Cardinals rookie quarterback
Kyler Murray. His grasp of Coach Kliff Kingsbury’s
new offense and his ability to already show leadership has the coaches,
teammates and fans expecting him to turn around a team that went 3-13 last
season to a playoff contender.
The expectations don’t
seem legitimate to most, especially the USA today who predicts to Cardinals to
go 3-13 again this season. If you really
put some though into it it’s not all that impossible for the Cardinals to make
the playoffs.
But how do they do it? The short answer is Kyler Murray. Murray understands the offense and is as good
in the pocket as he is out of the pocket.
We will soon see if his college success will roll over to the NFL.
Murray is capable of
being a star QB. He confidence and
humbleness combined show he is ready to take his team to the promise land of
NFL greatness.
What is going to be the
key piece that helps Murray lift the Cardinals to playoff contention? Vance Joseph.
Yes you read it write,
it says Vance Joseph, the Cardinals Defensive Coordinator!
Kyler Murray is smart,
quick and understands what it will take for him to be successful in this
league. The Cardinals are going to throw
the ball a lot, running back David Johnson will help keep defenses honest when
it comes to the run game which will allow Murray to get his stats, both in the
air and on the ground.
The secret to Murray
being successful will be Joseph’s defense.
If he is able to force opponents to go 3 and out Murray and the high
powered offense will put points on the board.
The Cardinals will be more successful if they are beating opponents by
at least 2 scores rather than the game coming down to one possession.
Joseph is a defensive
mastermind and already had key pieces in place when he was hired. He has a secondary that can be one of the
best in the league. If his defense is
successful we will see it with the success of Kyler Murray.
