Gamethread Highlights: Slapped By Todd Haley Edition

Like last time, I am only going to post comments that either made me laugh, or were filled with rage. We also got a few nice nicknames for Derek Anderson that I'm going to post.

So, lets get this thing going.

If they did, it didn't work

Skii: Today, in the locker room, for motivation, they should put up a sign that says:

"We’re playing Todd Haley. Enough said".

That happened several times during the game

Scott Howard: DA deciding that Doucet needs to die today

Good question

Scott Howard: If you get no pressure on the passer and a Pro Bowl reciever runs through the secondary untouched....

What are you defending?

This happened several times during the gamethread. And it is part of why I use a mouse with the little wheel on it to scroll through the pages.

Skii: Everytime I click on the side of the site on accident

It takes me to Facebook. Getting annoying…

Is it really that predictable?

Redbird Nation #1: Cardinal offense:

throw on 1st, run on 2nd, throw on 3rd

True

Scott Howard: The 2010 Arizona Cardinals: Hey, We Were Close A Few Times

Very very bad.

Skii: It's hard for me to admit that one of my team's is bad

Even when the Dbacks were playing, I made excuses for them.

But now, I’m starting to truly believe we’re one of the worst.

Something that was heard quite often

JohMa: Bill Davis fail

When asked for an update on how the game was going, the response.

Sir Whirly: we suck

Following a pass that got Early Doucet knocked out of the game

Skii: Die in a hole, DA

Die in a hole, Chiefs.

JoeCB1991: People said that Leinart would injure the receivers too much with high passes

And Anderson would not do that.

What the **** do you people have to day about DA now?

BIGRED CARDINAL: Holy ****

doucet has a concussion for sure

CardsFan08: That's what Anderson does!

He throws it so high that the player has to go up and get killed!

Skii: That's what happens when you throw it so hard and high

DA, you really aren’t a QB, are you?

Redbird Nation #1: **** it, put hall in
CardsFan08: Thank God Doucet is looking like he can move

An accurate statement

CardsFan08: As the announcer said..."He's been working on his fundamentals"

Fundamentally, he’s a piece of crap

Someone Rec'd this comment, and I am sure there are a few people here willing to do this to DA.

BIGRED CARDINAL: he was open

man i hate DA if i ever have the chance i am going to kick him in the nuts

The answer? They weren't.

Skii: I want to personally ask the FO

What they were thinking when they picked up DA.

Just because the horse has turned into dust doesn't mean that we can't keep beating it.

Redbird Nation #1: Im gonna beat the dead horse till its a bloody pulp

This is Whisenhunts fault for getting rid of Leinart. Leinart makes these throws. Not all of them like Warner, but not none of them like Anderson either

Scott Howard: Not only is that horse dead....

It’s been reincarnated…then died again. Then been turned into glue. Then the glue has been used and thrown away.

I miss Leinart

JoeCB1991: Like I have said before

I would rather have a guy who can dink and dunk, make the safe play, and not turn the ball over than the guy who can make more big plays, but more overthrows and turnovers.

It just lands in random spots

CardsFan08: Life is like a throw from Derek Anderson

You never know what you’re gonna get.

Please no...

KholdStare88: Anderson has his swagger on now

Which means an endzone pass attempt soon.

JoeCB1991: Some of his overthrows landed close to the endzone.
Sir Whirly: O.O Oh, based god no...
Scott Howard: Worst case scenario is that it functions like a long punt

Why not.

The first nickname

az78true: Yeah that was just awful by Don't Attempt.

There's so many ways to insult him that's the only good thing about him.

Good question, the ground game looked alright before this play.

BIGRED CARDINAL: WHY ARE WE THROWING ON THIRD AND ONE THIRD AND ONE!!!
Scott Howard: Because when you have a QB like Kurt Warner you put the ball in his hands

And let him make plays….wait…what?

Even when a checkdown is your best option

Redbird Nation #1: Anderson the anti-Leinart

never checks down

Everyone knows its coming

Sir Whirly: 3 and 1

PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS PASS

9 of 19 for 106 yards

az78true: So what's Donor Arm's stats at the half?

Another new nickname

AlaskanCard: I remember the days when I had hope when we were down.

With Devils Ass**** we can’t move the ball at all. Can we put in Breaston at QB? or maybe Calais? That would be an upgrade because at least he wouldn’t fall over when someone breathes on him.

Another one

az78true: Doubt Ability is a franchise quarterback - I hope we extend him through 2020.

Optimist

Scott Howard: Good thing we're not covering Bowe.

Is the idea that he may be so wide open he’ll get confused and drop it?

The Howling Beantower is yawning on the sidelines.

Redbird Nation #1: Isnt the Definition of Insanity something like continuing to do the same thing over and over and expecting different results?

How much you wanna bet Cards come out throwing? And dont give me the "were down a lot" crap. Theve been down a lot in most games and throwing hasnt gotten them back into the game.

Word of the day: Overthrown

JoeCB1991: Breaston was wide open

But DA’s favorite word (the overthrow) showed up again.

This is actually pretty accurate.

Redbird Nation #1: When hes making a bullet pass hes actually allright

its when he has to put any air under it that he is an inept chump

Do it!

AlaskanCard: I have a knife.

I’m going to cut DA’s penis off.

More high passes

BIGRED CARDINAL: Seriously DA wants to kill all our receivers

Good idea

BIGRED CARDINAL: I say

on one play we have breaston be qb and have DA be a receiver have DA run across the middle through it high to him have him go up and get it and get killed. A taste of his own medicine and revenge for breaston

Has a nice ring to it...

JoeCB1991: What the **** DA?
Skii: That should be the Cards slogan

These refs are awful

Scott Howard: So the refs can't keep their DE from throwing our QB down after the play....

But they throw the flag against DA. That’s a bunch of ****ing bull****

Don't we all...

Redbird Nation #1: I feel like I went back in time 10 years watching this team

I don't want to

AlaskanCard: Anyone thinking about that 90 year old man from last week yet???

That won't happen with DA...

Redbird Nation #1: Its like hes expecting his ugly catepillar to transform into a beautiful butterfly
Skii: To me

It seems like DA does decent in the beginning of the game, then dies.

The guy who was once benched for Walter Payton? He would be an upgrade at this point...

JoeCB1991: Is Rusty Lisch available to play QB?

Overthrowed a wide open screen pass to Andre Roberts that I could have made too...

JoeCB1991: DA even overthrows the checkdowns

True

Skii: DA

All arm, nothing else.

Anyone have some Forget-Me-Now's? (Cookie to anyone who gets that reference)

JoeCB1991: Anderson is drinking some water

Anyone know how to slip a roofie in his drink?

No!!!

Redbird nation #1: Ill tell ya how bad it is

Im turning the game off early to go do yardwork

Your preference?

Skii: DA

Death to Arizona.

Or

Disaster for Arizona.

Make your pick.

Did he say that yet?

Skii: Watch Coach Whiz say:

"Guys, let’s all calm down. We’re still trying to find ourselves as a team, and this early in the season, we’ve still got time. DA’s the man. DA’s the guy."

Never

KholdStare88: When the **** will DA stop being a DumbAss?
Skii: When he retires

Even that’s questionable.

Get it out of my head!!!!!!!!

AlaskanCard: 90 year old man, 90 year old man, 90 year old man...

Truth

KholdStare88: What?

If Fitz is wide open and he can’t catch something, protip: It’s not Fitz’s fault.

Seems accurate...

Redbird Nation #1: Whisenhunt in the post game

"I thought we excuted well, We just made some mistakes that we can fix"

Don't worry, they aren't

Skii: Todd Haley's probably thinking:

"They better not pin this offense on me".

True

KholdStare88: HIGH?

HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?
HIGH?

HIGH?

DA is officially very consistent this game.

It would explain a lot

Skii: I'm wondering if DA himself is high

Why not?

CaliCardsFan: Next Year

It’s obvious that DA is not going to get the job done, unless that job is to kill our WR’s. Were not going to the playoffs, we may only win one more game this year. I say get DA out of there and split the reps between Hall and Skelton. Find out who we keep as back-up for next year, or starter and look foward to a better 2011. Cards fan for 30+ years and don’t want to be the SAME OLD CARDS we were used to! Go Cards!!
