The Arizona Cardinals couldn't quite get it done in Indy.
ARIZONA -- The Arizona Cardinals walked out of Lucas Oil Stadium with a loss to the Indianapolis Colts, dropping their preseason record to 0-2 with one week left before the regular season is here.
Ridder played the second half and completed six of ten passes for 71 yards. Though he struggled to find open receivers, Ridder was stringing together a nice potential game-tying drive before a silly offensive false start penalty on OL Dennis Daley ended the game. At least in Indianapolis, Benson showed that he was trending in the right direction despite previous concerns he wouldn't be a strong complementary back to James Conner.We won't spend too much time on this, but for a second straight week the Cardinals were dominated at the line of scrimmage by the opposing defense.
We haven't seen the Cardinals' starting line at any point - so don't fret - though the second unit has been woeful for two weeks in a row.The Cardinals have preached the importance of rushing as a unit, ensuring the pocket collapses correctly. For a team that netted 33 sacks last year and lost their top edge rusher in BJ Ojulari, guys across the board need to step up.Cameron Thomas ended the day with two sacks and another pressure that resulted in a third sack.
