This is a case again where the bar has been set so low over the years that people go nuts when the QB simply doesn't lose the game for them.
The Cardinals, and other teams, are stacking the box daring Keenum to beat them. He can't, but at least he hasn't been the reason they've lost yet. It's the reason Gurley hasn't been able to break lose, as in at all, yet.
Yeah, he's tough and gritty, and that's the stuff I like about him. But if this offense is going to actual help win some games, rather than just avoid screwing it up for the defense, they need more out of that position.
Couldn't agree more. They were still out gained 420-288 I believe...and a 1/4 of that was on one play that Quick made a great catch and run on...which came after a drive saving 5 yard defensive holding penalty call that negated another sack Keenum took that he shouldn't have coincidentally IIRC. I have yet to see him make a single throw any 2nd/3rd string level QB in the league shouldn't/couldn't make most every time. Conversely he continues to miss throws that said QB's likely don't and still doesn't show the awareness/ability to get out of a play/audible etc... that is obviously sniffed out/stacked against.
