Andre Ellington rushed for 154 yards with a touchdown and the Arizona defense picked off Matt Ryan four times in the Cardinals' 27-13 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Carson Palmer completed 13-of-18 throws for 172 yards with touchdown passes to Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Floyd and one interception for the Cardinals (4-4), who snapped a two-game skid. Source: The Sports Network DaBears22's Take: Matt Ryan was picked of 4 times today and Atlanta is amidst it's worst start since 2007. Meanwhile Arizona used it's defense and ground game in another dominating performance over Atlanta.
If you didn't see it, Palmer threw an INT 6 minutes into the game and the amount of booing was incredible........but apparently what he needed. After that he was money. The Cards' defense totally overwhelmed the Falcons. I think the Falcons had less than 50 yards rushing. Total dominance....for once.
The Falcons continue to befuddle me. This was a must win game for them in my book. I think the Falcons simply aren't as good as we thought they were going to be. Injuries are one thing, but that offensive line is atrocious. Management should be embarrassed with what they put together to protect their most expensive asset.
Yep, the falcons just don't have it all together this season. It looks like they will be golfing in January
