How good can the Arizona Cardinals offense and quarterback Kyler Murray be in 2020? They could be one of the more exciting teams to watch this coming season.
After all, Murray enters his second season, a year where young quarterbacks often see a big jump in production. We have seen it in Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Mitchell Trubisky, Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson in recent years.
J.R. Sweezy, the Cardinals’ starting right guard, has nothing but hyperbole to say about his quarterback.
“He’s taken a huge step,” he told reporters this week. “He was great last year. This year, he’s going to be elite.”
Those are big expectations.
Offensively, Sweezy sees the Cardinals as being very difficult to handle.
“We’re going to be able to do some special things as an offense,” he said. “I think we’re going to be dynamic.”
He noted they will use every weapon they have. They have one of the best receivers in the game today in DeAndre Hopkins, one of the greatest ever in Larry Fitzgerald, a running back who was dynamic for the second half of the season in Kenyan Drake and other players who will be productive.
“People are going to have a really tough time finding a way to stop that,” he said.
Cardinals fans hope that is the case.
