I wonder why I was able to immediately see that J.
Zach Miller would be a real nice fit!!Fitz as we all know is a warrior that will always bleed Cardinal red!!He is exactly what every coach across this country should teach the kids to be like.I know this staff and ownership will do the right thing for this team,fans,franchise,and Fitz.He is a big part of the little bit of respect we get.I really like the composure of Skelton and would love for him to break out against the winers on sun.Mark my words (This kid will be an all pro QB)and hopefully it is with the Cards.I will also be the first to state he will end up being better than Bradford!Let’s go Skelton!!!Go out this week and give all of us something good to think about this offseason.Then study your butt off,work out and come out next year and win your job.Real Cardinal fans believe in you doesn’t matter where you are from or what pick you were drafted just stay humble and do your job.Looks like a young faster Big Ben to me.I know it is early but watch this kid is special.ROCK N ROLL REDBIRDS!!!! To be able to move up in the pocket, make the throw, put it where he had to put it … it’s a good sign.”
Having the lead the whole game, losing it, and then all of a sudden you’re at fourth-and-15 and you know if you don’t convert the game is over. “It’s a tough situation, just about as tough a situation as you can be in. “We shouldn’t have gotten to fourth-and-15,” coach Ken Whisenhunt said. After the Cowboys had clamped down the first three plays, Skelton hit Fitz, scrambled for five yards, tossed a six-yard completion to Tim Hightower and after a spike, maybe made the most impressive throw of the drive, a laser off his back foot on the move under pressure to fellow rookie Max Komar for 19 yards. Indeed, the Cards moved the ball every play after that (save for two spikes to stop the clock). Larry found a soft spot (in the zone coverage) and I think that one completion got the ball rolling for the rest of the drive.” Quarterback John Skelton just remembered the fourth-down play as “do or die.” “It’s really your last chance … but we had a good play dialed up. “That’s pretty much all I remember, honestly.” “I knew I had to run up the seam and I saw the ball and I just tried to make a play,” Fitzgerald said, breaking into a chuckle. A couple plays later, rookie Andre Roberts was the one telling Fitz where to go on fourth-and-15, one of the most important plays of the Cardinals’ season. (Side comment in today’s concussion-concerned NFL: Yikes.)įitz never came out of the game. “I took a shot and I was a little bit out of it.” “I don’t remember much from the end of the game, to be honest with you,” Fitzgerald said. Originally, I thought Fitz had made a catch, but he dropped it, and the video showed him shaking his head and blinking his eyes after the hit. Converting 4th with “out of it” Fitz Posted byĪs I noted late Saturday night (Sunday morning) while writing my “aftermath” and watching the tape of the just completed Cards-Cowboys game, it looked like Larry Fitzgerald had taken a head shot (maybe helmet-to-helmet) on the first down play of that last drive.
