The top candidates are going to NY and Chicago respectively first Because of a higher pic, Eli and Trubisky to build around. I’d take Chicago over here because of a qb already drafted in Trubisky. Someone young would have to start completely from scratch and there is little glamor in this job. But it’s still better then the Browns lol

Didn't we steal Arians from Chicago during the process?

No. The Bears chose Marc Trestman over BA, which made BA available. He fell into the Cardinals' laps.

Funny how MB is touting his and SK's patience "with the process" back in 2013 (by waiting to hire hire a HC when several others had been hired in front of them) when basically they got out-hustled by every other team and could not close the deal on their top choices.

But it worked out, at least for 3 years.

Bettcher deserves a chance to interview. His Defense has been consistently good over 3 years.

Man, if that's a "consistently good" defense we are never ever going to get close to winning a Super Bowl. This consistently good defense this year got outscored 159-72 in 1 PM EDT games. 65-16 by the Rams. 50-33 in both home losses on MNF, TNF. 31 points to Tom Savage.

If cardinals had any kind of offense would not defense rank close to 2015-2016?

Another name to add to the Cardinals’ coaching search is Falcons special teams coordinator Keith Armstrong. His interview will take have to take place after Atlanta’s Wild Card game, which is Saturday.

Jurecki is reporting Todd Haley wants an interview with cardinals but the team likely will not grant one. Also reported that Haley with Steelers bears watching/monitoring.

And this now: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/01/02/todd-haley-injured-in-a-fall-will-return-this-week/

Kinda fishy. Doubt he will get an interview with cardinals.
Which team will not grant an interview permission ? Steelers or Cardinals?

He is still in playoffs and his contract does not expire until the end of the season.

Per Jurecki, Cards don't want to interview Haley. Haley would like an interview with Cardinals. Tells me he is on the outs with Steelers.

Sounds like it, but the list of suspects is probably huge. LOL

On the Chicago thing, years ago didn’t they tell everyone they were hiring Dave McGinnis..except Dave McGinnis?
IIRC, he had agreed in principle, but wanted to sleep on it...but that night it was reported he had been hired, prematurely, and he bailed out of town the next day because of it.
