Larry Fitzgerald gets touchdown number 101

Last week Fitz got touchdown number 99 and 100.  Today he will go over the century mark with his 101st touchdown reception.

Fitz was a huge part of the Cardinals offense last week against the Patriots.  He caught eight passes for 81 yards including those two touchdowns.

Fitz caught pretty much everything thrown his way.  He was targeted 10 times, meaning two balls didn’t hit the target.  I’m still trying to figure out how?

While the Cardinals do need to get other receivers more involved on Sunday, Fitz should continue to shine.  It would be nice to see more game from John Brown, Michael Floyd, and Jaron Brown but seeing Fitz continue to shine is just a true pleasure for any Cardinals fan.

Fitz was still nursing his injured knee during the week, being a limited participant at practice.  That has certainly seemed to help him come Sunday though.  In Fitz we trust.
