CARSON, Calif. – Back in August, Cardinals coach Steve Wilks chose to practice his team outdoors several times during training camp, reasoning that working in 100-degree heat would build a “callus” that would serve the team well later.
Three months later, the only calluses the Cardinals have are the ones on their backsides that have formed from absorbing beating after beating.
It’s hard to say if their 45-10 loss Sunday to the Chargers at the StubHub Center was the Cardinals’ most embarrassing of the season. Worse than losing the opener at home to Washington by 18 points?
