Let’s chalk it up to excitement. The game ended in a win, but Arizona Sports had a mixed report on Rosen’s performance.
The Jewish athlete was strong in the first half, according to Arizona Sports, proving to be a “critical piece in keeping drives alive for the Cardinals.” The second half was another story: “The rookie and much of the offense were non-existent,” it reported.
Ultimately, the Cardinals were victorious 28-18. Mazel tov!

But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
