Arizona Cardinal of the Week: Week 15

by Andrew602 on Dec 16, 2008 10:53 AM MST in Arizona Cardinals Player of the Week

Well folks another game is in the books and as usual, we have some nominees for Arizona Cardinal of the week. Even the worst defeats feature a few bright spots. This week there are some new faces that are up for the award. Maybe an offensive player might win. Unfortunately, the lack of offense in the game may keep a player from actually winning it. As always, if you feel someone should be nominated, drop a comment with who and why.

Hood

Not really a great game aside from the fumble recovery, and DRC should get most of the credit on that play anyway. I guess we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel this week.

yea Hood had terrible game outside of a fumble recovery

the vikes were openly picking on him and he was the guy in coverage on three of the four TJ touchdown passes.

Hoods play felt like the Giants vs Greenbay playoff game..

Did you watch last year when Plexico Burress was openly flaunting his ability over Al Harris last year. GB didn’t give him any help because he’s a pro bowler and Plexico kept making play after play as they exploited that weakness.

Wow, history repeats itself.

DRC

DRC blocked the kick and had at least one pass break up that I remember. They weren’t throwing his way much either. So he definitely deserves to be in front of Hood who out ran a punter!

Not sure after that weak attempt...

…at an arm tackle of AP.

I love the smell of commerce in the morning

Yeah he didn't look too interested in making that tackle!

Got DRC added. He was even listed in the Box Score though so blocked punt is the only stat I got.

yea he put up nothing but goose eggs outside of the block

he sure did show some speed getting around the corner though.

Gotta go with Urban

For a “marginal” receiver when he first was added to the roster (Practice Squad originally if memory serves me) he’s proven to be a consistent option. Considering how the Vikes shut down Fitz & Q, it another receiver had to step up. Besides, his jukes and breaking tackles for a 50 yard TD on a short pass is totally unexpected.

We all leave footprints in the sands of time, just watch out for the discarded fish hooks!
