NFL Week 4, 2018: 20 bold predictions to consider
By Dan Parzych
20. Rosen tosses three interceptions in first start
How sad is it to see the Arizona Cardinals already replace Sam Bradford with Josh Rosen after just three games? While football fans knew this would be a strong possibility since Bradford has struggled to stay healthy, and was always viewed as the quarterback that made more money than he deserved, but seeing the Cardinals give up before the end of September is a whole new level of sad.
With three losses in three games along with taking until last Sunday to toss his first touchdown of the 2018 season, it’s easy to understand why Arizona is willing to give Rosen an opportunity to prove himself since they seem to have nothing to lose. Talent wise, there’s no excuse for Bradford to play like he did since most quarterbacks would love to have players like David Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald to work with on offense.
Facing a rebuilding defense in the Seattle Seahawks seems like a perfect opportunity for Rosen in his first start, but also the unit is feeling confident following a strong outing in Week 3 against the Dallas Cowboys. By receiving an opportunity to face a rookie quarterback in Rosen making his first start, the Seahawks’ defense will do everything in their power to take advantage.
