The Cardinals have made a center field position move; will Kyler Murray start in Week 9?
Dobbs had a great start to the season, leading the Cardinals to an unexpected victory over the Dallas Cowboys, but in the last few weeks, he has fallen apart due to a number of errors and an offense that is finding it difficult to play as a unit.
In the Ravens’ defeat on Sunday, Dobbs threw two more interceptions, raising his total to five in just the last four games. He has lost four fumbles in eight games and has fumbled the ball in each of Arizona’s last five games. These errors have been made worse by the absence of a workhorse like the injured James Conner to go after him.
When the Cardinals host the Browns in Week 9, Gannon will probably relinquish the keys to Clayton Tune due to the team’s increasing turnover issues. Although Tune, a fifth-round draft choice this year, hasn’t played a snap in the NFL yet, he will get his opportunity against Cleveland’s top defense as Murray gets closer to game shape.After months of arduous rehabilitation from his knee injury, the two-time Pro Bowler Murray has resumed active practice participation. Murray could play in as many as eight games—the whole second half of the season—should he be selected as Arizona’s starter against Atlanta while the team decides on its quarterback strategy moving forward.
The Cardinals might actively shop the #1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft if Murray does well under a new coaching staff and they end up with the worst record in the league. The rumors about Caleb Williams in the desert will spread if Murray finds it difficult to get over his rust.
