They've been playing better recently, and the new offense seems to be gelling a bit. They haven't beaten anyone worthwhile, but wins are wins and they are confidence builders for a young QB.
I'm not overly worried about Murray running. He's not really a "running QB" in that he looks to throw the ball and uses the run mostly as a backup plan. And our DLine is absurdly good, disciplined and well-coached.
The biggest concern for me is the spread vs. our now depleted secondary. The Cardinals run 3 or 4 WR sets on 66% of their plays (https://www.sharpfootballstats.com/personnel-grouping-frequency.html). So we're going to have 5 and 6 DBs out there most of the game. Kingsbury will try to exploit that.
I'm expecting a tougher game than most probably are.
But if I'm being honest I mostly just wanted to post this:
