Offense:
Plusses:
- RB David Johnson rushed for 25/137/5.5. As was suggested last week, Johnson needed to mix his speeds and not be so deliberate in hitting the holes. He did just that this week.
- The makeshift offensive line paved the way for 154 yards rushing and only gave up one sack. Credit OLC Ray Brown for the week’s preparation. Rookie LT Korey Cunningham and newly signed RG Oday Aboushi were solid.
- QB Josh Rosen’s 3 TDs—-(1) his patented freeze the safety, turn and fire a tight-spiraled dime on the skinny post to Larry Fitzgerald was a Rembrandt; (2) the hitch screen to Christian Kirk was a superb audible, that was sprung by two outstanding seal blocks by TE Ricky Seals-Jones and Kirks’ outstanding burst of speed; (3) Rosen’s roll right pass in the red zone late in the game to Larry Fitzgerald on a fake slant, peel back toward the pylon route was executed to picture perfection.
