Columnist Kent Somers takes a look at what we learned in the Cardinals' 24-6 season-opening loss to the Redskins on Sunday:
Offense
All preseason, the Cardinals' passing game was short, quick and pretty boring. That didn’t change in the season opener. The Cardinals didn’t look far downfield until they were way behind. Sam Bradford had 8 passing yards in the first quarter and just 11 at halftime. His longest completion in the first half was 4 yards. He finally hit Larry Fitzgerald for 27 yards in the third quarter, but the Cardinals were trailing by 21 points at the time.
