From the article

He's mostly functional, not overly impressive, but can operate an offense. He's exactly what the Cardinals want right now- be functional so it doesn't look like we are openly tanking, but don't be good enough to put the team on your shoulders and actually win games.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Brissett's functional role fits Cardinals' tank-adjacent strategy perfectly.

Brissett is having a typical year—mostly functional and not overly impressive, but capable of operating an offense. He's exactly what the Cardinals want: functional enough to avoid looking like they're openly tanking, but not good enough to put the team on his shoulders and actually win games.
