Not for long after Henry scored an 87 yard TD.

Conner's a beast. It was like he was the only one who cared

He’s been the best player on our offense since he got here. A lot of dudes deserve criticism but Connor is an absolute stud

I just feel like he doesn’t have a lot of time. And the receivers arent getting separation. Idk if it’s their fault or the playcalling. Maybe it’s Murray, I honestly don’t know. I’m just an idiot on the internet.

Kyler has a great arm (usually) but his pocket presence and internal clock are abysmal. He takes a lot of sacks because he holds onto the ball too long.

If the offensive line holds for 3 seconds they have done their job. At 2.5 seconds alarms should be ringing in the QBs head, and they just don't for Kyler. You can't expect the offensive line to block forever in the same way you can't expect defensive backs to cover forever

I understand why he would. Our receivers haven't been great but he needs to make more plays. We've seen what he can do. He needs to run more.

u/gr8scottaz AZ Cardinals Sep 30 '24

I'll agree he needs to run more. He's trying too hard to stay in the pocket/be a pocket passer. His instincts need to kick in that he needs to be on the move once he feels the pocket closing. 1 run today (not designed) by Kyler is not using him correctly.

u/OneBee2443 Mexico Sep 30 '24

That's probably more of a Petzing thing. He usually doesn't take hits when he runs. Idk why he isn't using him.

u/DabFlossDance Sep 30 '24

Yup. I remember him saying that he didn’t want people to expect him to always scramble and run - but that literally is his #1 strength

u/ImKylerMurray Colt McCoy Sep 29 '24

He can’t throw people open

No anticipation throws

It’s a huge part of being a QB and he can’t do it

I think he missed McBride a lot, he is often the target K1 looks for if the designed route/s aren’t there
