The Texas Tech University extremely successful Kingsbury came in 2019 with large advance laurels as Headcoach to the Arizona Cardinals and has indicated its offensive as well as skills as a whole - but not more. With a balance sheet of 5:10 and 8: 8 In his first two NFL years, the play-offs have been clearly missed.
But now the knot could be burst, although a game has been survived in the new season. But that's exactly this a game has taught the Cardinals fans dreaming and let the neutral football trailers share their eyes ...
Chandler high five
At 38:13, the team originating from Glendale, Arizona, no one overruns, lower than the Tennessee Titans - and outlines in all matters. First of all, on the defensive side of the ball: Although the opposing quarterback Ryan Tannehill reach two Total Touchdowns, but the rest was forgotten. An interception and two fumbles went to the account of the Titan's playmaker, who also had six sacks had to plug in - five alone from the outstanding pass Rusher Chandler Jones.
In addition, Tennessee's run wonders Derrick Henry was thrown in the spokes, the rolling machine of the last two NFL years came in the end only on 58 yards room gain.
Magician Murray
However, what made headlines beyond the boundaries of the Grand Canyon States, Kyler Murray was. The just 24-year-old quarterback, who had decided against this sport and for American football in 2019, despite an already fixed baseball draft pick, and finally moved as a first-overall pick at that time by the Cardinals, conjured over the total gameplay quite big. Four touchdown passports, a touchdown rush and 289 yards at just one interception were a house number of the extra class. Especially since Murray in many of his actions the opposing defender Schier to the white lug drove with cheeky hooks, agile solvents or incredible throws, which also arrived perfectly, from impossible layers.
Boy, he won the game, he was looking forward to his top receiver Deandre Hopkins. He had five touchdowns - and he had prepared for this game to have five touchdowns. And it does not surprise me. I expected that from him because I've seen how intensively he has prepared. In addition, the top quarterback motivated the whole team to continue playing.
Of course, that should, at best, lead to the brachially heavy NFC West with Seahawks, Rams and 49ers (all in Week 1 successful) in the end as a winner and more than just playing in the play-offs. The fact that Arizona is thrown directly in the raffle manner after this start of many US media, surprised something - many experts had given the Cardinals little opportunities here. Wide Receiver Christian Kirk still had a message for this opinion maker in parat: We all hear from it ... but we do not stop it, how do you just want to do our thing and play great. That's definitely the cards.
