The core issue with the addendum isn't mandating independent study, it's what the mandate intimates. The particularity of the clause would lead anyone to the one result: "Mut 23 Coins doesn't study so we're making him to." It's in contradiction to what the Cardinals had to do under the contract in question, which was to instill faith, place their faith in Murray and advance.

Murray's relationship and relationship with fans needs fixing. The fans were hurt, driven by rumors of possible trades and wanting out of Arizona. In addition, there was the anger at how he refused to go back to the field after losing a playoff game to the Rams. In a time when there was a need for even and trust built for all sides, the Cardinals included this clause and ruined it all. Perception is now reset and the perception that Murray isn't working hard enough -- or should be forced to "love" football (a lengthy pre-draft stipulation because of his love for baseball) remains in place.

The Arizona Cardinals made Kyler Murray one of the top-paid quarterbacks of Madden NFL 23 on Thursday signing a 5-year 230-million contract that includes $160 million in guarantees. But what do you know? He's worth it. Murray inspires angst when it comes to Madden NFL 23 fans. There were plenty of angered responses to Murray when I announced that he was one of the Top 5 quarterbacks of the NFL on my 2022 rankings. The ratings considered physical ability, intangibles, and the other factors that surround the quarterback to assess their potential for success in the upcoming season.

To that end Murray can pass each test. The major criticism about Murray stems from the claim the quarterback "quit" as a player in protest of his decision not to play in a playoff match against the Rams with 1:05 left on the clock, with a score of 34-11. in an event where he was subjected to pressure on 29.7 percent dropbacks. It's not uncommon to praise quarterbacks for their smarts and that was certainly an intelligent decision. It's not going to go well with the exaggerated football slur regarding "Cheap Mut 23 Coins," but nothing Murray could have done would have turned this game around in the face of one of the final Super Bowl champions, and getting hurt would have been disastrous.
