The Cardinals are highly confident in Colt McCoy as the starting quarterback after Kyler Murray was deemed out for the season.
Before Monday night, the last time Cardinals fans saw a lot of Colt McCoy was on another Monday night, Week 11's loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Mexico City last month.
"I’ve played for a long time and you’ve always got to be ready. You never want to see the guy in front of you go down. You just don’t," McCoy said."I’ve had a lot of opportunities in my career, I’ve gotten injured, so I’m thankful to be on this team and on this squad. I love the guys that we have. We’ve battled injuries all year long and the guys that are going to go in there, they’re going to fight until the very end.
" had some tough breaks. I think with a week of preparation when he gets the reps, he's really confident. He's played at a high level and not easy to come in there and play the game and try to execute like that but I thought he gave us a chance,"Kingsbury said."We just weren't able to make some plays there in some critical situations."
In the present, McCoy's job will be to build a stronger rapport with players he hasn't thrown to much, namely starting tight end Trey McBride and wide receivers Hollywood Brown and Robbie Anderson, and keep the offense from stagnating and not executing consistently. Outside of football work, McCoy is trying to be there for his friend Murray. The two have become close and share a common experience of playing college football in Texas: Murray in high school and at Texas A&M before moving to Oklahoma, and McCoy at Texas.
