2020 Quotables – Week 8 (Results) & Arizona Cardinals Bye Week Update

Lot of eyes on my previous and current home states of Arizona and Nevada. As a conservative, it’s really despicable seeing what the Republican Party is today. Say what you will of the party and their elites policies and actions, seeing men and women who claim to have my values shouting down public speakers and openly threatening other Americans for having the audacity to cast a ballot is sickening. But I find that I am often on an island with my opinions so…


 

 

That Pierce cat stands alone right there. 

ANYWAYS….

The 2020 Arizona Cardinals are the first exciting Cardinals team since about ’16. As I wrote in my preview, the Cardinals front office sucks and it should never be mentioned without noting fatherless team owner, Mike Bidwill, is a Brett Kavanaugh supporter/classmate and supported the “sports should stay out of politics” mantra until his pal, Rapey Brett, was up for the Supreme Court and then, as is always the case with sub-humans and judges, history went out the window. So fuck Mike Bidwill and I look forward to his death.

Now, the team, behind second year QB Kyler Murray and Koach Kliff Kingsbury, have shot out to a 5-2 record (2nd in the division) and are operating the top ranked offense in the NFL at 419.1 yards per game. Part of this is the result of dodging the injury bug that is crippling teams like Dallas and San Francisco but, they, that’s part of the game. The Air Raide offense, as we discussed last year, has been a ground assault on opposing teams led in yardage by Kenyan Drake but, really, it’s the Kyler Murray show as he has 7 of the teams 12 rushing TDs and averages 62 yards a game on the ground. Also,  DeAndre Hopkins has shown up as the stud everyone expected, averaging 100.6 yards per game right now. The defense is ranked 22nd in the league in yards per game but, by points per game, they are 9th (20.0 points/game).

That all said, the easy part of the schedule is over. Arizona caught Dallas post-DAK and snuck an overtime win against Seattle before the bye. There is a potential six wins remaining for the team but I could see four as a more realistic option. New England and the Giants are both trash but Arizona has to face RAMMIT 2x still, Seattle again, and exits the bye against Miami’s #1 scoring defense (huh?) and the Bills. Last season the Cardinals were absolutely embarrassed after bye, getting blown out 34-7 at home to the less-than-stellar 2019 RAMMIT squad. I’m not sure if it’s a coaching thing or what but if time off is a Kingbury weakness, that won’t be good.

Stats folks (of 2016 and 2020 election fame, please note) give the Cardinals a 66% chance of making the playoffs. I don’t know and I don’t care. I kind of hope LA wins the Super Bowl so they can have all major sports titles this year without a single parade. 

Alright so, that’s that. Submissions are here and your Week 8 Quotables results are below.

I sat on a jury years ago, 2nd degree attempted murder case. One day the defendant wore sneakers with his suit to court. It was that day I knew he was guilty.

Let’s be real with the image: Otto and Twister would never wear football gear.

Trump Supporters, for five fucking years now:
“Fuck your feelings, you libtard snowflake!”

Yeah, I’ll be sure to be nice to Trump supporters. Gonna get right on that. Right after I finish drinking this cup of “Trumptard Tears”

Unsurprised

Pierce must have a nice view from the liberals’ ivory tower to throw that kind of bullshit around.

Col. Duke LaCross

That’s McSally with two “L’s.”

Great work this week by all, and the Duchess one especially made me laugh and made me sad.

There is no way a LA team wins the Super Bowl this year. I don’t think the Rams are that good and I think the wheels are falling off the 9ers.

I say Arizona gets 2nd in the division and has a good shot of advancing depending on which trash team they play in the first round. If they can get the NFC East champ, they could make the conference championship.

SonOfSpam

When did LA get the Niners?

Also, really enjoy your not even mentioning the Chargers, either because they suck or because you totally forgot they’re in LA.

TheRevanchist

They aren’t in LA. They are in San Diego Way-Way-WAY North.
