These five players didn’t do much to impress for the Arizona Cardinals on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Chargers

As mentioned earlier, the Arizona Cardinals 24-17 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday night wasn’t exactly a documentary on good football. There was entertainment but there was also some poor play.

As much as we like to focus on the good and the positives, Saturday night’s game also showed us some of the guys that are going to likely struggle to make this team. A few of these guys should come as no shock to Cardinals fans.

Both sides of the ball had players that struggled. As good as the defense played at times on Saturday night, a couple of the players stood out and not for good reasons.

There are only 53 players who will make the final roster come September. All of these guys did nothing to help themselves on Saturday night. In some cases these guys hurt themselves big time.

The first preseason game is the time to show first impressions. For some veterans it is time to show once and for all they truly belong. That’s didn’t happen for these guys against the Chargers.
