18. Drake rushes for 150+ yards
With all of the injuries at running back, the Arizona Cardinals knew they had nothing to lose by acquiring Kenyan Drake from the Miami Dolphins before the trade deadline.
Even more exciting for the Cardinals, Drake wasted no time making an impact for his new team last week against the San Francisco 49ers by rushing for 110 yards to go along with a trip into the end zone, although it would have been great to see Arizona earn the win.
Still, the fact that Drake played this well against one of the top defenses in the league should give the Cardinals all sorts of confidence heading into their next game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who don’t exactly have the best best defense in the league.
Kyler Murray has received most of the attention when it comes to the success from Arizona’s offense so far in 2019, but Drake is worth keeping an eye on for the rest of the way.
Do the Cardinals have what it takes to make a strong enough run in the second half of the regular season to fight for a playoff spot in the NFC?
Long shot to happen or not, Drake will at least put Arizona in better position, and should be in for another strong performance in Tampa Bay on Sunday.
