Hey guys, here's a story that I wrote, better go grab some popcorn or something because this is a long blog, hope you like it: "Hi, my name is Kayd Nissen, and this is the Hall of Fame Game! Tonight the Arizona Cardinals will host the Atlanta Falcons. We're in the dome so we won't have to worry about the weather tonight. Breaking news has just come in, it seems as if that Matt Leinart the Cardinal's QB has done something, lets go to Tom for more information, Tom"? "Yeah Kayd, it seems that Matt Leinart has suffered a hamstring injury and will be out 6-14 weeks, so you'll see either Derek Anderson or Max Hall tonight, Kayd"? "For the truth I do not really think they need him because he can barely hand the ball off! Now lets go down to the field for the opening kickoff. The Cardinals will get the ball first. The kicker for the Falcons (M.Bryant #3) will kick off. It's a bomb down the field, the kick returner (L.Stephens-Howling #29) will make a move and will be brought down, no he's going the 40-50-40-30-20-10 and will be tackled at the 7 yard line! Now Max Hall will come on to the field for the 1st time tonight. They'll line up in the eye formation, gets the snap, QB (M.Hall #6) will pitch it to the HB (J.Wright #31) running... TOUCHDOWN!!! When you look at this replay again you can see the FB (R.Mauia #45) come up and just nail the beepin out of the LB ( C.Lofton #50) to get him in to the end zone for the score! The kicker (J.Feely #4) will make the extra point. Now the score is, the Cardinals 7 Falcons 0. Now the kicker (J.Feely #4) will kickoff to either (J.Norwood # 32, E.Weems # 14) for the kick return. The kick returner (J.Norwood #32) will return the ball from inside the end zone, and will be tackled at the 17 yard line by a LB (J.Porter #55). The QB ( J.Wilson #4) will be in the shotgun alone. Gets the snap, looks deep into the hands of the safety's hands (A.Wilson # 24) but the wide receiver (H.Douglas #83) knocks it out of his hands. Well it's 2nd and 10. There's one back. Hands it up the middle to the HB(G.Johnson #27) for a gain of 2. They'll hand it to the HB (M.Turner #33) along the outside who hands it to the wide receiver (E.Weems #14) wait, it's a fake but the Cardinal defense didn't buy it and only got 3 yards. That will bring up 4th down. The punter (M.Koenen #9) really got a good punt there. The punt returner (S.Breaston#15) will return it to the 30 yard line. Now the QB (D.Anderson #3) will come on to the field for his 1st time but the offenses 2nd time tonight. The HB (B.Wells #26) will run it up the middle, running room, and will get tackled at the 48 yard line. The wide receiver (S.Breaston #15) will be in the shot gun, did you know that Steve Breaston was a QB in high school! He motions MAX HALL to the right, throws it to the QB (M.Hall #6), looks deep, throws to the wide receiver (L.Fitzgerald #11)! There are 2 people to beat, breaks 1 tackle, the other safety (E.Coleman #26) is waiting for him at the goal line, he jumps over him! What a play, oh my gosh, I've never seen anything like that! The kicker (J.Feely #4) will make the extra point. The score is Arizona 14 Atlanta 0. Now lets look at the drive chart: Plays:2 Yards:70 Main Player: #11 Larry Fitzgerald. The kick will be returned from the 2 yard line, he makes a move and will be brought down at the 22 yard line. The QB (J.Wilson #4) is in the shot gun next to HB (G.Johnson # 27). He hands it to the HB (G.Johnson #27), he hands it to the WR (B.Finneran #86), acts like he's running it, but he actually throws it to the QB (J.Wilson #4), but it's over thrown! That Arizona defense got a huge break there! It looks like the QB (C.Redman #8) is in the wide-out possession, and the HB (M.Turner #34) is in the wild cat! He passes it to a WR (R.White #84) who reverses direction and hands it to the QB (C.Redman #8) then he throws it to a WR (M.Jenkins #12) into Arizona territory at the 29 yard line! The QB(J.Wilson #4) is in the shot gun alone. He gets the snap throws a quick strike to the TE (M.Palmer #81) it slips threw his hands and into the safety's (A.Wilson #24), he is running 30-40-50-40-30-20-10-5 TOUCHDOWN ARIZONA!!! That was a 64 yard return for that awesome touchdown! Last year this defense could barely stop a team on 1st down, and now they're returning 64 yard touchdowns? That's crazy! The kicker (J.Feely #4) makes the extra point. Now the score is the Cardinals 21 the Falcons 0. There is 6:13 left to go in the 1st quarter. I feel this game is starting to become a blowout. The kicker (J.Feely #4) kicks it into the end zone, but the kick returner (E.Weems #14) returns and will get 6 more yards in front of a touch back. They'll start at the 26 yard line, they better get something going on offense or this is going to be a long night. A late flag comes in now, here's the referee"."Illegal block in the back, on the receiving team, 10 yard penalty, 1st down"." So that will bring up 1st and 20 on the 16 yard line. That doesn't help at all. For the 1st time in this game the Atlanta starting QB (M.Ryan #2) will be int the game. The starting QB (M.Ryan #2)will be in the shot gun alone, he gets the snap, a lot of pressure, and the NT (B.Robinson #96) got to him, and brought him down for a 8 yard loss! That will bring up 2nd & 28 on the 8 yard line. There is 2:12 remaining in the 1st quarter. The QB (M.Ryan #2) will pitch it to the HB (M.Turner #33) who fakes the hand off to a WR (R.White #84) and is running down the side line. He breaks a tackle, but the safety (A.Wilson #24) is using everything he has, and it seems he will bring him down, and he will at the Arizona 48 yard line! What a run, but what a way of never giving up by the safety (A.Wilson #24)!The QB (M.Ryan #2) is in the shot gun alone, it looks like the 2 wide receivers (H.Douglas #83, B.Finneran #86) are running a crossing rout, and the WR (H.Douglas #83) is wide open! Well, that's a 20 yard gain. Now they're in the eye formation, they hand it to the FB (J.Snelling #44) who takes all the way to the 16 yard line! Not a bad run for a FB there. That's a 7 yard gain, and that will bring up 2nd & 3. The QB (C.Redman #8) is in the shot gun, gets the snap, looks for the end zone, did he have 2 feet in? It looks like he had 2 feet in, but when he hit the ground the ball kind of bounced, but the call it a touchdown. There gos the red flag from the Cardinals head coach. He looked at the play for a couple minutes and said","over the review of the play the player had 2 feet in, but when he hit the ground the ball bounced, there for the call is reversed"."I thought he bobbled the ball a little. That will bring up 3rd & 3. The HB (M.Turner #33) is the only back. They're going off tackle this run, but he bounces to the outside, but the Cardinals defense didn't buy it and the HB only gained a yard. Now the kicker (M.Bryant #3) will get and easy chip shot here. It splits the uprights. That's the end of the 1st quarter. Here are some stats:
Atlanta Falcon's Running:70 yards
Atlanta Falcon's Receiving:91 yards
Arizona Cardinal's Running:25 yards
Arizona Cardinal's Receiving:52 yards
Not bad for the 1st quarter. Now the kicker (M.Bryant #3) will kickoff for Atlanta. The kick returner (M.Komar #18) will take it from the 2, and gets brought down at the 27 yard line. It looks like a new QB (J.Skelton #19) is playing now. He hands it to the HB (L.Stephens-Howling #36) who carries it for 7 yards. Nice block by the left guard (R.Hadnot #70). The QB (J.Skelton #19) is in the shot gun with dime backs (T.Hightower #34, J.Wright #31). There is 12:44 left to go in the 2nd quarter. He hands it to the HB (T.Hightower #34) for 4 yards. 1st down CARDINALS!
