No one thought the Cardinals could be in this place of upsetting what was thought to be one of the top teams in football in Gannon’s first year, but here they are.
#Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said he was looking for "F–king Killers" and his players are playing hard for him.

Many believed the Cardinals could be tanking for Murray’s replacement in Caleb Williams this year, but today’s win was very convincing of what the team can do.
Murray is still recovering from his ACL tear suffered last season. Last week, Murray shared a post that he was “itching” to get back to playing.
#Cardinals QB Kyler Murray says that he is “itching” to get back on the field and that he’s never missed football this much before in his life.
Cardinals have actually been playing decent football, wouldn’t be surprised if they win games when Kyler Murray does eventually come… pic.twitter.com/UTf1xjNGM5

Following this video, Gannon was questioned on Murray’s return date.
Who knows when Murray will return, but it is clear he and Gannon are living in the present and enjoying today’s huge victory.
