A collection of news from around the Web about our Cardinals and the NFL in general.
Arizona Cardinals News:
Word From the Birds Blog | Nothing new for Miller, and some sack changes
There’s been a lot of talk about the Cardinals adjusting their playcalling to fit with what seems to be a transitioning philosophy on offense — a little more deliberate, sticking with the run, etc. But offensive coordinator Mike Miller said nothing really has changed in what he has been dialing up on game days.
Word From the Birds Blog | Dockett doubtful, Maui’a returns
Four players did not practice at all this week, and all four are doubtful to play Sunday against the Dolphins, including defensive tackle Darnell Dockett. (The other three are running back LaRod Stephens-Howling, tight end Todd Heap and tight end/fullback Jim Dray). Not having Dockett would be a blow to the defense, obviously. Coach Ken Whisenhunt called Dockett, Heap and Hyphen game-day decisions, but realistically, it’s going to be tough. "I’m not a doctor, I don’t think he could play. He hasn’t taken a snap," defensive coordinator Ray Horton said.
Word From the Birds Blog | Friday before the Dolphins
The spotlight will be on the Cards’ running game. The Dolphins are allowing less than three yards a carry and are third in the NFL in run defense. The Cards are averaging less than three yards a carry on offense. Ryan Williams, what say you?
Healthy Again, Kerry Rhodes Is A Hit
After missing eight games last season with a broken foot and another with an injured ankle, it took Rhodes three games this season to feel perfect. His foot is healed and he’s healthy but Rhodes has felt good – not great. Something was just a little bit off until Sunday.
Cardinals' Defense Sees Another Rookie
The Cards started the season against Seattle’s rookie Russell Wilson, who was followed New England’s Tom Brady and Philadelphia’s Michael Vick. Add Miami rookie Ryan Tannehill to that list this weekend. The Cardinals’ 10th-ranked defense won’t mind. It’ll still pressure him all the same.
