He could be the brothel master like Littlefinger on GOT.

Note to self: Don't piss off anyone named Arya.

uh oh

Your 2023 Arizona Cardinals Head Coach.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

I think Gambo is full of Georgia Dawg crap! I can’t see anyway Michael would’ve fully guaranteed 5 more years of a mediocre HC who struggled to 1 win in his last 7.

So what's the intent from the Cards of this being leaked ahead of black Monday?

What leak?

 

[Redsz]

What leak?

That the contract is fully guaranteed.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

That the contract is fully guaranteed.

It isn't a leak. Coaches and GM contracts are fully guaranteed. That is why the NFL sent out that memo about teams spending 800M dollars on non players in the past 5 years that are no longer working for their teams.

Sources: NFL reminds owners of costly firings

NFL officials have informed the owners of the league's 32 franchises that teams have spent $800 million on fired coaches and front-office executives over the past five years, league sources told ESPN.

That the contract is fully guaranteed.

That's common knowledge, ignored by some, it seems.

 

[GatorAZ]

Mikey deserves to lose $30m for that idiotic decision.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

So, the only situation remotely similar, that I can think of is way back when Shottenheimer got fired in Kansas City and Gunther Cunningham, who was the DC took over as HC for 2 years. It was obvious he wasn't a good replacement for Marty and was fired after the 2000 season. Now he did leave and go to the Titans for a couple of years, but then he did return to KC to be Defensive Coordinator again during Vermeil's and Herm Edwards' reigns.

He got fired after he was like 14-2 that season.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

You would be wrong. I know it happened with colt and I can’t remember if it was blough or mcsorely but we had to do it twice in one of the last two games. It wasn’t as demonstrative as when kyler did it, but it happened.

Definitely has happened.

Who? Cunningham never went 14-2. Shottenheimer did, but that was later in San Diego.

He got fired after he was like 14-2 that season.

There was a lot of behind the scenes stuff with that. I think he was pushing his son with more power and ownership said no. There was a huge falling out and the whole thing was blown up essentially. I'm briefly paraphrasing here but that's what I remember on the top of my head.

Wait… when did it get announced VJ also got extended?

I saw a similar blurb about VJ yesterday:

so when the Cardinals first signed Kliff to a five year contract, with the fifth year being a team option -

is that a fully guaranteed contract?

i would say no -- its a four year guaranteed contract with a contingent fifth year

i suspect that the Kliff extension has a something similar

Weird that it wasn't publicized at the time, along with Keim and Kingsbury's extensions, and that no one in the media thought to ask him about it until now!

Yep, Schottenheimer was fired after going 14-2 in 2006.

His teams made the playoffs 2 out of 4 years but lost by 3 in the first round each time.

Okay… that is just BIZARRE that wasn’t mentioned back when the other extensions got done.

Monty might be next man up after kliffy boy walks away

Ugh sad times welp

I was rather thrown off by it too. It went under the radar for whatever reason it seems during the time Keim and Kliff got extended and apparently there was never an announcement by the Cardinals

Just further boggles the mind as to the decisions made to reward everyone after a second consecutive meltdown to end the season.

And now makes me worry Vance/AW might be the duo moving forward into the lamest of lame duck seasons next year which will be just as disastrous as this one.

Please, please, PLEASE let me be wrong there.

U mustn't be surprised
Its the worst ownership in sports combined with the softest local media coverage and great part of their fans...Disinterested
