Stray observations from the Cardinals first preseason game and a look ahead to the next one

Last week, the Arizona Cardinals delivered a rousing win in Jonathan Gannon’s head coaching debut. Sure, it was only a preseason game, but it’s great to start this new era of Cardinals football with a win—even if it ultimately doesn’t count for anything.

It’s only one (preseason) game, but there’s already a different vibe about this team than the end of the Kliff Kingsbury era. There were of course some hiccups with backups playing most of the game, but the team did most of the little things right (converted third downs, limited penalties and turnovers) and generally looked ready to execute their game plan.
