There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Cardinals never got to the one that mattered most. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They banked enough surplus on DeJean to cover a lot of smaller sins. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 1 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
