00:02 When the Falcons also lost yesterday on the road in the desert against
00:07 the Arizona Cardinals.
00:08 Welcome back Kyler Murray.
00:11 One of those five games where the game-winning score happened as time
00:15 expires.
00:15 Matt Prater a chip shot gives the Cardinals the victory 25-23 over
00:21 the Dirty Birds.
00:22 Kyler Murray making play after play Donnie in his first football game
00:25 in nearly 340 days.
00:28 Taylor Heineke was injured, but then benched Desmond Ritter came in
00:33 regardless the Falcons two games below 500 the Cardinals get their second
00:37 win of the year.
00:38 Donnie outright as a two and a half point underdog at home in the desert.
00:41 Yeah, my team total yesterday.
00:43 My favorite one of the day was the Atlanta Falcons go over 21 and a half
00:47 and it looks like it was going to be in the bank in the first half as they
00:49 scored two touchdowns in the second quarter.
00:51 Then things got a little dicey late when you saw an injury to Taylor
00:54 Heineke on a hamstring injury, which brought in Desmond Ritter, which
00:57 looked okay for a while until he just fell down on a quarterback sneak
01:00 on fourth and one and didn't get it.
01:02 I was losing my mind, but he came back and took the lead which again
01:05 the Falcons you took the lead against the Cardinals.
01:07 You couldn't close them down.
01:09 Now, let's take a look forget about the land of Falcons.
01:11 They're going nowhere this year and you're right.
01:12 The Northern Saints are catching a break from the division that they
01:14 play in.
01:15 Let's focus on the Arizona Cardinals here.
01:17 You take a look James Connor comes back to the game 16 carries 73 yards
01:21 Trey McBride, who's an absolute superstar, which you've heard on this
01:24 show a couple weeks back when his totals were like, hey, see if he can
01:27 get 25 yards receiving.
01:29 Yeah, he went for eight for 131 with a real quarterback.
01:31 He is a legitimate threat and a dominant tight end waiting to happen
01:35 in the NFL.
01:36 But if you are an Arizona fan, let's just say or even the front office
01:40 you loved what you saw to Kyler Murray.
01:41 He wasn't all that efficient overall with just a passer rating of 71
01:45 through a bad interception 19 of 32 no touchdown passes, but you saw
01:50 what makes his bread and butter out there.
01:51 Ben, he is fast as all get out and looks just as fast as before the
01:56 knee injury, which is huge.
01:57 But tell me there wasn't a part of some people at the end of that
01:59 football game.
02:00 Like yes, Atlanta scored to take that lead.
02:02 Fantastic Arizona got what they wanted.
02:05 Mary is healthy, but you lost the game and you continue to stack those
02:08 chips come draft time here because yes, it's great.
02:11 The coaching staff always wants to win because it's their name on that
02:14 bottom line there.
02:15 But I got to tell you looking at that game overall, it would have been
02:18 so much better if the Cardinals had that same performance and lost it
02:21 would have been a win-win for me both ways, but I know coaches and
02:24 players actively are going to throw the game on the field.
02:27 It's up to the general manager to sort of slow those trails down and
02:30 say look, here's who's playing here's not but Kyler Murray's back and
02:33 he's healthy.
02:34 Yeah.
02:35 (upbeat music)
