Arizona Cardinals offseason news for the week of Jan 4 2021

[RON_IN_OC]

Bevell makes sense because of his work with Russell Wilson. But, he would have to be ok with Kliff calling plays if that is what he wanted.

Kliff needs someone to either call the plays, OR help him understand the rhythm of the game, because he hasn't show, yet, that he has a feel for consistent play calling.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

I wonder if he would be a good coach? It always seemed like he was a coach on the field, when he was here.

Yes I like him, especially when I watched him on the field says something to p21 about his poor effort

It depends if Kliff feels like he is stretched too thinn on gamedays or during the week. If he wants more time to be able to interact with the defense or other position groups. Kliff knows how he feels things are going. Maybe he recognizes he is missing something in his playcalling or scheme and wants an established NFL mind to bounce ideas off of why.

There are lots of reasons someone may be willing to give up some power. If he feels it is to his benefit, why wouldn't he.

I'm hoping he does because he clearly needs it. But the first thing that springs to mind is that he was brought in for his "offensive mind" and if that offensive mind is going to move away from play calling and play design to some degree and try be a more traditional HC then I'm not sure if there's a valid argument for him remaining HC.

If your bringing in a OC thats going to have play design and play calling duties you may as well rip the band aid off and put in a HC that can actually manage games.

Hmm, then he never should have been hired as a head coach in the first place.

Welp, more of the same crap playcalling:

"I would retire," Kingsbury said. "It's part of the game, I couldn't just sit there and watch it. A lot of people are great at that, managing games, and that's not my strong suit. My strong suit is calling it and interacting with the quarterback. I've got to play to my strengths

That may be the dumbest thing a coach has ever said. What does he think a head coaches main duty is? It's managing the game.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Crazy that KK said that.

His job is to manage the game.

What's he thinking?

Perhaps it's time for Kingsbury to reevaluate his strengths.

Perhaps it's time for Kingsbury to reevaluate his strengths.

Maybe it's time for Keim and Bidwill to reevaluate their decision to hire him.

didnt Arians say pretty much the same thing while here?

KK was hired as an offensive wiz. If he doesnt deliver it next year, he team will be below .500 and i suspect a change is made

 

[Mainstreet]

Maybe it's time for Keim and Bidwill to reevaluate their decision to hire him.

This is where I'm at even though it's probably unlikely to happen.

Actually I think Keim should have been fired in 2018 after the last DUI.

Leadership

I don’t remember that. Was there a story about that?

 

[juza76]

I don’t remember that. Was there a story about that?

I heard it cause Bethea was mic'd up
He says something like "come on Pete u can do better"
Then peterson said something to justify his poor effort

 

[DVontel]

Maybe it's time for Keim and Bidwill to reevaluate their decision to hire him.

And maybe it’s time for Bidwill to reevaluate his decision to not fire Keim yet.

 

[GuernseyCard]

And maybe it’s time for Bidwill to reevaluate his decision to not fire Keim yet.

BIDWILL...

I don't recall that. Do you have an exact quote? BA can manage the game, but even he has given up play calling to concentrate on managing the game.

BA repeatedly said that playcalling was his thing, etc, etc.
