biggie. Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Even before his disastrous playoff debut, I have always maintained my assessment that Kyler Murray has been one of the league's most overrated players. What exactly has he done that makes him stand out as more than just good? I understand head coach Kliff Kingbury is part of the problem, but Murray is ultimately the one with the ball in his hands.

But he hasn't played in many big games and when he has he's put up some "performances you can't forget", in a regrettable use of that term Edited January 19, 2022 by Dome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apparition Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 First of all, what would constitute a disappointment for him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncofan Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Eh Kyler has his limitations but the first guy to go there will be Kingsbury. Way easier to find a HC /OC that can scheme to a QB/WR combo like Kyler / Nuk than find a QB. The Cards will almost certainly take the 5th year option for 2023. If it doesn’t go well in 2022 then they can go 2023 with a 2024 franchise tag option with a new HC / OC and see how things go from there.

You have quotes like that where it implies he doesn’t go the extra mile. And others where he practices three straight days just for a batting practice with the As.

I believe there’s something in his contract where he has to pay back some % of bonus’ if he plays during his rookie deal idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronjon1990 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Overrated is an understatement. People got excited about a super mobile QB, as usual, and par for the course he was ok with some flash until the league figured his tendencies out. Same story, different QB. I don't say this sarcastically, I wouldn't extend him regardless of what he does in 2022. I thought he was always sort of immature (anyone who has their parent as their spokesperson as long as he did just come off as childish to me). Add in the apparent lack of dedication, the sloppy performances, the near absolute reliance on mobility, and his "flop" sacks....dude isn't a franchise QB. I don't think he has the passion to be, and he's far too limited as a passer. If I'm Arizona, I'm looking elsewhere sooner rather than later for a QB.
