As exciting as the Cardinals game against the Packers was last week, there has to be one very big area of concern for Arizona – pass defense. The Packers torched the Arizona secondary, Drew Brees and his army of weapons have been planning their attack all week. If Sean Payton needs any helpers about what to do, he should turn to Revenge Of The Birds, they nailed down the problem. Cornerback Bryant McFadden and the right-side of the secondary were a disaster.
Revenge Of The Birds: Right Side Is The Wrong Side
I wanted to get a better idea of where Aaron Rodgers had success throwing the Ball, so I created a passing chart. It shows his comp/att, yards, TDs/INTs, and the percentage of yards thrown to that area.
As you can see, the Cardinals relinquished 253 yards and all four touchdowns to the right side of the field – the primary area that Bryant McFadden was assigned. If this tells us anything, it’s that McFadden needs help. If the Cardinals leave him on an island, Marques Colston or Robert Meachem will have a field day.
