Cardinals' Passing Prowess Runs Aground Against a Near-Perfect Plan
Washington Post | September 22, 2008

Cardinals receiver Boldin burns Dolphins for 3 TDs
Orlando Sentinel | September 15, 2008
Run it up: Anquan Boldin had a simple message for his Cardinals teammates before facing the Dolphins: "It's not a crime to blow these teams out." No, but it is a first-degree football felony to pass over a receiver like him. The Dolphins again suffered for the folly of previous regimes Sunday as the Pahokee product caught six passes for 140 yards and three touchdowns. That was the 22nd 100-yard game Boldin has produced since the Dolphins -- specifically, former coach Dave Wannstedt -- chose LB Eddie Moore over Boldin in the second round of the 2003 draft. They did so even though the scouting staff put a late first-round grade on Boldin and a high third-ground grade on Moore, who is out of the NFL. In case that didn't bring back enough bad memories, Boldin created new ones. He capitalized on a miscommunication and a mismatch with LB Akin Akodele for a 79-yard TD. He lulled with "a kind of lazy motion" for his 3-yard score. He capped the day by snatching a pass behind him for an 8-yarder to make it 30-3. "These are the games we're supposed to win, and not just barely win," Boldin said.
