the Arizona Cardinals have a problem.Since 2013, the http://www.authenticsarizonacardinals.com/cheap-antoine-bethea-jersey Arizona Cardinals have finished in the following places in a major defensive stat:2013 - 12014 - 62015 - 22016 - 72017 - 1This year, the Cardinals rank 31st.That stat is Football Outsiders defensive rankings against the run.That’s right, the Cardinals are the second worst team in the NFL against the run.This is a combination of a couple of things.First Black Gabe Holmes Jersey , the Cardinals linebacking unit is high key awful. Outside of Josh Bynes, no linebacker this year has played well until this weekend when Haason Reddick was pretty okay and had a nice statistical game.Secondly, the Cardinals defensive line is one gapping and that means the linebackers have to make plays.When you put two and two together, you get the worst Youth David Johnson Jersey , or second worst technically, run defense in the NFL.Then, when you add to that situation an offense that runs less than five plays per offensive possession, and you have a recipe for disaster.You have a perfect storm of a terrible run defense.Can the Cardinals fix it? That’s one of the many questions Steve Wilks and his staff have to answer now.Arizona Cardinals at Los Angeles Rams second half thread Well... there was some improvement.Against the Washington Redskins Larry Fitzgerald Jersey , the Cardinals gave up 21 points and only gained 36 yards of total offense.In week two on the road, the Arizona Cardinals “held” the Los Angeles Rams to 19 first half points, while gaining 60 yards on offense.That’s right, through two games Authentic Patrick Peterson Jersey , the Cardinals have less than 100 total yards of offense in the first half of their games... combined.Sam Bradford’s arm doesn’t look great.The Cardinals defense doesn’t look great.Meanwhile, the Cardinals offense cannot get into any sort of rhythm offensively, as they have only two first downs in the first half.Bradford is 5/10 for 48 yards.David Johnson has seven carries for 19 yards.Christian Kirk has two catches for 21 yards and Larry Fitzgerald has two catches for 19 yards.It has been another abysmal first half offensively.Let’s hope the Cardinals can find a way to get on track in the second half.Go Cardinals!
