The Arizona Cardinals 2020 team will be known for its shortcomings but that still doesn’t mean there were some very good performances

The loss to the Los Angeles Rams still stings for Arizona Cardinals fans. It will be hard to shake how the last couple of weeks went down in missing the playoffs.

That doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate the successes this season. At one point the Cardinals were 6-3 and in contention for the NFC West title.

Sure, things didn’t go their way but it was still a lot of fun at times to watch players on both sides of the ball do some great things.  Some of the performances will keep us talking all offseason and yearn for more in the 2021 season.

That said, there are a number of awards that should be given out as we reflect on some of the successes. Even at 8-8, 2020 was an improvement over 2019.  If they improve as much as they did from 2019 to 2020, maybe we’ll be giving out awards later in January 2022.
