Arizona’s story is fit for in-season HBO viewing — and the 49ers game was highlighted as a potential turning point in the season.
The debut episode of the HBO series “Hard Knocks In Season: The Arizona Cardinals” shows quarterback Kyler Murray walking off the field in defeat following a 34-26 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 8.
As it turned out, the Cardinals lost to Seattle 31-21 to plunge further into desperation, a game in which Murray tweaked a hamstring just before halftime. Safety Budda Baker, portrayed as the beating heart of the Arizona defense, was hobbling at the finish with an ankle sprain. The Cardinals remain in contention but can’t afford many more losses, particularly against a formidable division opponent. The hope is the win over the fading Rams provided the necessary spark.
“We felt like the program we could set up here for all the altitude training was really good and wouldn’t disrupt our routine, so they’ve been at it for the last two or three weeks,” Kingsbury said. Well, there was rookie wide receiver Danny Gray rolling an ankle during warmups. But Gray has been a non-factor anyway as he learns to add nuance to his pure speed and potential. The torn Achillesby Jason Verrett was heartbreaking but anything from him was going to be a welcome bonus, not something the 49ers were counting on.
