But Sunday in Oakland, the Arizona Cardinals' second-team might see the field before halftime, coach Bruce Arians said.
"We’ll just see how it goes," Arians said. "I was very pleased with the number of reps that we ran in a row this week in practice to get that game-type condition, and we seemed (to be) in very good shape. We’ll play it by ear."
On Monday, Arians said that, at this point in his career, starting quarterbackCarson Palmer doesn’t need to play the entire first half. If he doesn’t on Sunday, backup quarterback Drew Stanton will finish the second quarter. The plan is for fourth-string quarterback Phillip Sims to play the third quarter with third-stringLogan Thomas to play the fourth, in order to get him a two-minute drill.
As you can see by that plan the Raiders should have an advantage at quarterback with Carr playing a full half and then Ponder and Mcgloin each playing a quarter and each of them are very capable of taking advantage of another teams second and third stringers and ofcourse it sound like the Raiders starters will get some action against the Cardinals second stringers during the second quarter of this game but even if the Raiders follow the Cardinal cue of exiting starters early there is still an advantage at the quarterback position once Palmer leaves because the Cardinals backups are just so awful imo. This all provides an advantage for the home squad who are young, hungry and eager to chomp into any kind of winning they can get, it's all about building blocks of success in Oakland right now. This is enough to make this a play for me and I feel equal to it as I did about the Bengals play.
