    Not to be a negative Nancy but that was a horrible pass by Carson Palmer to Larry Fitzgerald. LF made a great play buy Palmer is rolling right then throws the football left across his body to LF. Those kinds of poor throws often turn into pick sixes.
    Obviously the standard is the standard.

      Judging by your post count you may not have been on this board for the days when the pitchforks were out en masse to run BA out of town, myself included if I recall. Those were the days. Well, now many want our head coach gone so not much has really changed.

        Man of Steel: I respectfully disagree on the Palmer pass to Fitzgerald in OT. Yes, throwing back across the field, especially that distance, is usually a no-no, but in this case, the whole Packer secondary had come across the field, leaving Fitz wide open. Even with ball in the air all that time, there was nobody near him when he caught it. You can't say Palmer "threw across the grain" because there was no grain. Great play and one of those times when you can go against the book because the play is sitting there on a silver platter.

          The non-call on PI at the end of the game was Morelli-esque.

            That is the defense Bryant weaved through to clinch a W

              Its only a horrible pass if its intercepted or almost intercepted. There was no one within 10 yards of Fitz when he caught it and it was a pretty impressive play by Palmer. I thought he would fold under the pressure but he played big in OT.

              and I thought Fitz was interfered with on that 2nd down pass play.

                That "catch" by Janis on the Hail Mary did not seem like a catch to me -- it didn't look like he had control of the ball ???
