With the West division separated by 2 games the Arizona Cardinals are making their best attempts to miss the playoffs. After a solid win versus the Niners the week before the Cardinals laid an egg on Offense vs the Chargers at home. Cards only mustered 13 pts in what turned into a defensive struggle. Murray continued to struggle throwing 3 picks in a very winnable game vs a .500 team. New commer at HB Evans is breaking out slowly but surely. By leading the team in rushing on 13 carries, James Conner has taken on the back up roll with grace and humility. The wide receiver group is strong but need help from Murray when they are open to let it rip on time. DeAndre Hopkins picked up another touchdown. On the bright side Murray was able to find seven different receivers to spread the ball around. The defense showed flashed of their early season success but by the 4th quarter were just out of gas, since the offense couldn't put anything together to help them out. Trayvon Mullen put his name in the MVP hat with another 3 interception game. To go with is league leading 14 picks on the season. The Cards secondary is going to have to get it done or it's going to be a long off-season in Arizona. Thompson and Murphy are both approaching double digits in interceptions as well. We shall see what the future holds.
