Entering last week’s games against the Colts, Cardinals coaches were concerned with the left side of their offensive line, where two backups were starting because of injuries.
But it was the right side – guard Evan Boehm and tackle Jared Veldheer – that struggled, and coach Bruce Arians and offensive coordinator/line coach Harold Goodwin made it clear this week they expect improvement.
“I’m trying a new approach, I’m not screaming as much, not as many curse words,” Goodwin said this week.
Boehm, a fourth-round pick in 2016, is in his first full season as starter. Veldheer, in his eighth season, is in his first year at right tackle after playing the left side most of his career.
“They’ve got to step up, and Jared knows it,” Goodwin said. “Jared’s been playing right tackle long enough that being over there should not be an issue any more.”
On Saturday, Veldheer said he is still working through technique changes required by the switch.
“It’s kind of humbling when you go to one side from the other and you have this standard of viewing yourself when you’re watching tape,” Veldheer said. “It’s not where I want it to be. There’s no magic potion for it. It just takes a lot of work.”
Veldheer gave up a sack on the second play of last week’s game against the Colts. It was a one-on-one situation with the rusher, and Veldheer needs to win more of those, Goodwin said.
“Either he’s going to whip your butt or you’re going to whip his butt,” he said. “Unfortunately, we lost that and we can’t let that happen this Monday.
“I feel bad for Carson (Palmer), second play of the game and you get sacked. Before he even hits his fifth step. We’ve got to do a better job up front.”
Palmer and Veldheer have been teammates for six years, two with the Raiders and four with the Cardinals, and have a tight bond.
“I love him,” Palmer said. “He was my blind side for a long time, and now he’s on my front side. Like I said, bad plays happen. You miss some guys when they’re open. You throw interceptions. Guys are going to get beat in one-on-one situations sometimes. That’s the game. There are good players on the other side of the ball, too.”
Cardinals receiver John Brown (quadriceps) and left tackle D.J. Humphries (knee) have been ruled out of Monday’s game. Linebacker Deone Bucannon (ankle), tight end Jermaine Gresham (ribs), guard Mike Iupati (triceps) and receiver J.J. Nelson (hamstring) are questionable.
Of that group, Bucannon and Iupati seem the least likely to play.
For the Cowboys, cornerback Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring), cornerback Nolan Carroll (concussion) and linebacker Anthony Hitchens (knee) are out. Carroll and Hitchens are listed as starters.
Receiver Terrance Williams (ankle), defensive tackle Stephen Paea (knee) and receiver Brice Butler (ankle) are questionable.
As soon as he said it, Cardinals defensive coordinator James Bettcher knew it sounded trite. Monday night’s game against the Cowboys will come down to how well the Cardinals tackle.
“Maybe that’s a statement you’d hear from a coach who is coaching in middle school, elementary school,” Bettcher said. “But that’s what it’s going to be about. We’re going to have to tackle well on early downs to put us into position on second and third downs to do some of the things we want to do defensively.”
The main tackling target will be running back Ezekiel Elliott, who led the NFL in rushing last season with 1,631 yards. Elliott gained 104 yards on 24 carries against the Giants in Week 1, but the Broncos held him to eight yards on nine attempts last week.
“You’ve got to wrap, you’ve got to run, and we’ve got to rally when we tackle this guy,” Bettcher said.
There were several personalities on parade at the Cardinals practice on Saturday. HBO is doing a piece on the McDonough brother: Sean, Terry and Ryan. Sean does play-by-play for Monday Night Football on ESPN. Terry is the Cardinals’ vice president of player personal and Ryan is the Suns’ general manager. The piece is scheduled to run on Tuesday night.
ESPN’s Jon Gruden was there as well as comedian Frank Caliendo, a Valley resident and Cardinals fan.
