Cardinals need to create a competition at QB

At this point, after seeing Kyler Murray fade yet again in the months of November and December, the Cardinals should at least create a QB competition for 2025.

For a couple of weeks now, on the Red Rain Podcast, Kyle Ledbetter and I have been discussing whether Kyler Murray is the right kind of fit in Drew Petzing’s style of offense —- and whether Drew Petzing’s style of offense is one to maximize Kyler’s strengths —-

Here are some “best fit” recaps of my arguments:

Best fits for Petzing and Kyler:

Drew Petzing’s smashmouth style of offense requires a strong-armed QB who (1) holds up well making throws from the pocket and (2) who is a play-action ace, particularly for exploiting the middle of the field, like Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff.
