Washington Commanders Vs Arizona Cardinals Live Score And Stats - September 29 2024 Gametracker - Cbssportscom - GLENDALE Ariz. AP Kliff Kingsbury and his nice college offense are looking pretty good these days for the Washington Commanders. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is quite familiar with the highs and lows Kingsburys leadership can bring. Kingsbury - now the offensive coordinator in Washington - was Murrays mentor and head coach with the Cardinals from 2019-22. The Commanders 2-1 travel to face the Cardinals 1-2 on Sunday for a reunion. Murray isnt letting the moment get too big. To be honest Ive done it before Murray said. Ive competed against him before and many other coaches that Ive been coached by. It doesnt really affect me. My goal is to go out and win the game. Kingsbury was hired as the Cardinals head coach in 2019 largely because the team wanted an offensive mind to guide Murray who was taken with the No. 1 pick out of Oklahoma. The coach lasted four up-and-down seasons before being fired following a 4-13 record in 2022. But there were some highlights. The Cardinals had an 11-win season in 2021 making the playoffs before losing to the Rams in the wild-card round. Murray was selected to two Pro Bowls under Kingsburys tutelage. The coachs Air Raid-inspired offense - at least at times - worked very well. Kingsbury said it has been fun watching Murray improve from afar. At the end of last year you could see the confidence getting back in his knee Kingsbury said. He made a bunch of big plays and played really well. Hes played great this season. They are a couple plays away from being undefeated. You see the speed the quickness the competitive nature is there. Hes a guy that I basically banked my entire career on what he would be. I still believe in it. Its cool to see him playing well. The Murray-Kingsbury partnership eventually fizzled but there doesnt appear to be much animosity. Murray is thriving under new head coach Jonathan Gannon and offensive coordinator Drew Petzing. Kingsbury is doing well too leading a Washington offense thats thriving under rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. Murray declined to say which coaching staffs offense was superior. Two different systems Murray said. One is more reliant on certain things and the other one is more reliant on other things. Washingtons longest-tenured player is punter Tress Way and for years of organizational struggles he may have been the teams best player on the field many days over the past decade. Not the past two games. The Commanders have not needed Way to punt since Week 1 scoring on all their possessions except for kneel downs. He is handling it just fine even if selfishly he would like to be able to do his job. I am having a lot of fun just out there holding and the leg feels pretty fresh so its been a lot of fun Way said. Its pretty cool. James Conner had one of this worst games as a member of the Cardinals last weekend running for just 17 yards on nine carries against the Lions....
