Bickley Blast: Kyler Murray isn't the Arizona Cardinals' only problem

[@THEENERGYINHALER]

Jarrid says we still do not know if Kyler can play at an MVP level for an entire season... YES WE DO KNOW.. HE CANT

[@taf_motorsports]

I'm a fan of K1, but I'm starting to realize that he may have reached his ceiling. Additionally, it seems there’s a disconnect between Petzing and K1. The offensive play-calling and schemes, particularly in the passing game, lack quality, which falls on Petzing. There also appears to be a lack of true leadership in the locker room-while there’s plenty of good character, the team seems to lack genuine fire and accountability.

[@mbmd1625]

His ceiling was the Rams game and that’s a top 3 QB in the league type performance. His problem will always be his wavering confidence/consistency.

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

Murray doesn't understand the position of the Qb...can't read defenses so of course he doesn't know how to call audibles

[@tgingras1]

​@@johndoe-cb5ckjust stop....

[@Brian-fk8zr]

Kyler is inconsistent at times, but the Cardinals' biggest issues are that they do not have a pass rush, their OC is uncreative, and MHJ is a bust!

[@Chris.Young.]

I've also been a fan of Kyler since the beginning. He can do things no one else can do. He definitely has needed to grow as a player and a leader and I think he has definitely grown from his rookie season. The problem is he just isn't growing fast enough (insert obvious height joke). By the time he could become the player we all hoped we would be, he'll be past his prime and it will be too late.

[@ki2726]

He might not be the only problem but he’s definitely the biggest one. The guy is 13-29 during the second half of seasons for a reason it is because he is miniature sized and wears down around week 7-8 every year and as soon as you remove James Conner from him he looked like the worst QB in the league but now this team not only has defensive deficiencies but their QB looks to be regressing and the WR they took 4th overall looks to be extremely soft in the way he attacks the game of football as well as now huge questions involving the coaching staff.

[@seancue2803]

The game was as close as it was because of whom? Kyler has issues, but eff that nonsense. He didn't give up 36. He ain't the biggest problem. Loser ass Cards fans are pathetic.

[@gabriellemaudlin9145]

Kyler isn’t the answer. 5 quarters and barely 200 yards passing. He’s never thrown for 4k yards and 30 tds. He has like a 13-29 record in second half of years. He limits what the offense can run due to his height. He will never be a consistent winner and that’s what you need in nfl consistency. He’s too erratic and not a great leader. At the most important position in the game you need a force multiplier and he’s not that. He rubbed Larry legend the wrong way in their 1 year together and started to have problems with Hopkins. Keim went and did an awful trade for his guy Hollywood and they sucked together.

[@MHHustle]

Love the honest critique here. Will DB be bold enough to bring this fire to the Monday press conference with JG? Someone needs to confront the team’s leadership with this level of questioning. Watching thes press conferences with JG ‘palling” it up with reporters who ask lame questions about players “state of mind” is so frustrating. Bidwell is obviously controlling the media, using his ability to yank their access once they step out of line. Way to be bold in your oped, Dan, now let’s see you conjure up some Trevor, a la Ted Lasso, and ask these questions face to face with Gannon and crew.

[@trimethicon2719]

Its always the coaches, the players or the GM. Maybe we need to look at the top of the pyramid, Bidwill is a loser, the Bidwills are losers, until they're gone this culture will never change, and the Cardinals will always be losers. Nothing changes, when nothing changes.

Kyler Murray has to go!

[@fAnaticZpodcast]

It’s like we weren’t told we were still rebuilding at the start of the year the way people are acting. Yes, Kyler has been a slug lately but he’s also extending plays when he can.. it’s been more on Ky but not about the defense collapsing against Minnesota or the defense basically giving Chubba Hubbard a secret service pass to the endzone.. we shit the bed as a team. Kudos to Ryland for at least getting us into OT.

[@theglove602]

Amen 🙏 it's yr#2 and truth is Harrison was not True #1 ready wr and they use rely on Conner and Mcbride. Zay Jones and Wilson can't get separation. They played over their heads at 6-4 and then couldn't win vs vikes gm or seattle. They need more playmakers plain and simple on both sides. Thought the coachescplayers outplayed their abilities for most part. 25' is make it or break it year for everyone and K1

[@fAnaticZpodcast]

@, winning comment. Good insight. I still believe Murray is going to pop off next year but we need a young receiver who can go up and get the ball to pair with McBride and MHJ.

[@thaThRONe]

Don't forget about some huge penalties that killed drives for PHX and kept drives alive for Carolina.

[@fAnaticZpodcast]

@@thaThRONe, the biggest piece people are missing - we didn’t have Mack Wilson arguably our best backer - AND Paris Johnson was out. Key spots leaving big holes.

[@mdmcfp]

If Kyler was like Josh Allen over the previous seasons, throwing a lot of TDs and making plays but still had the mistakes, it would be much easier to overlook. I personally do not think it's the mistakes, but the lack of high level production mixed with the mistakes. He's only averaging 220 yards passing and about 1 passing TD per game.

[@thaThRONe]

You have an OC that wants a ground and pound offense.

[@Brian-fk8zr]

That's because of Drew Petzing's offense along with the fact that there's only 1 player in the system who can get YAC (McBride)...Our front office got rid of all the speed (Hollywood and Rondale)

[@CheckBallUp]

D-Hop made so many crucial catches that MHJ is just dropping as well. It’s a shame Kliff couldn’t figure it out because that team was best shaped around Murray. Had weapons on O, burners WR’s, had a reliable guy in Hop. Had a solid defense, a decent pass rush. He’s better off with a fresh start elsewhere imo. I don’t believe he’s reached his ceiling yet. Dak for Kyler swap incoming

[@MH55YT]

@@eorozco7 Maybe a 4th rounder after the 2025 season. He is untradeable until his crazy-high payroll is no longer guaranteed. Still, I'd trade him before next year. We would probably have to pay most of his 2025 salary, but the sooner we get rid of him, the sooner our rebuild begins. I've said he was worthless since the day he got on our team.

Bro it’s not kyler’s fault that Marv dropped idk like 10 TD,s 50/50 balls. It’s not on him that the defense gave up 36 points to one of the worst teams in the nfl.

[@Sillysoft]

Was it his fault throwing ridiculous picks week after week? You act like Kyler is in his first year, he has made the same mistakes from year 1 to now year 6. He has been a QB in 2 different systems, 2 different coaches and making the same errors. You can't blame a defense that was setup on a shoe string budget and no legit playmakers in top of all the injuries. But Kyler with a contract bigger than anyone else in the team has more responsibility... Going into this season everyone knew the defense was going to suck. The great equalizer was Kyler running the offense with a full off season

[@merlemccabe1393]

6 years... We know what kind of QB Murray is and he's not a winner.

[@ezjimmyj1]

No mention of the defense giving up 36 points, that is hard to overcome... For any quarter back. Saying we had a playoff run with Palmer is laughable! We went to the playoffs twice and won 1 game, which we had to win in OT against a wild card team. The two Palmer playoff losses were bad losses. You had it right when you started to criticize ownership/management. However you backed off that real quick. We don't want to upset Uncle Mikey Bidwill now do we...

He is an above average qb but not a qb to get you to the next level. Remember when we thought it was Kingsbury and not kyler?

Rookie QBs are playing better than Kyler is, another rookie I think is playing well is, "Bo Nix' and even Russel Wilson is winning games right now. He didn't play well last year with the Broncos, everyone thought he was done but Mike Tomlin has him playing winning football. I think we should get another look into another QB1 and let Kyler be QB2 🤔 Over all the whole team hasn't played well, too many mistakes and penalties!
