Kyler Murray & Kliff Kingsbury Heated Sideline Exchange: “We had a difference of opinion”
Following the Arizona Cardinals’ 42-34 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday night, which ended an eight-game home losing streak, Kyler Murray & Kliff Kingsbury played down an animated exchange that cameras captured in the second quarter.
With 2:32 remaining in the second quarter, cameras saw Murray strolling to the sideline and repeatedly mouthing to Kingsbury, “Calm the f—- down,” after Arizona had called a timeout to reset its next play.
Murray spoke about his NSFW interaction with Kingsbury following the Cardinals’ 42-34 triumph. He basically accepted responsibility for what occurred.

Kyler Murray & Kliff Kingsbury Heated Sideline Exchange: “We had a difference of opinion.”
Murray stated, “The clock was going down, and we couldn’t have finished the play we were trying to run. “Therefore, I suppose it is my fault. I’ll accept.”
Kingsbury, on the other hand, played down the possibility that there is a problem in the background.
Kingsbury told reporters, “He said I didn’t look good on TV behaving so aggressive. “I suppose it’s a Gen Z thing, and I don’t know. I enjoy displaying emotion. “You’re on TV, so calm down.”

Hopkins was back, and the Cardinals won at State Farm Stadium for the first time since Week 7 of the previous season. This may have given the victory a familial feel. Fortunately for the Cardinals, success solves all problems. And in spite of all of their difficulties this year, they were able to deliver a strong performance against the Saints at a crucial moment.
Kingsbury explained, “I mean, it’s good. “I believe that we are figuring out where we want to go and what we want to do as an offensive. I believe that having opponents with that level of vigour will keep us moving forward.”

All’s well that ends well: Murray would play well, completing 20 of his 29 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown in addition to another 30 rushing yards. After serving a suspension for a failed drug test, Hopkins had 103 receiving yards in his first game back.
