    Our own FA's---anyone invited back?

    Get real MT, you read the word 'dog' and think of 'vodka.'

    Arizona Cardinals have made a decision on QB Jacoby Brissett

    I believe both misguided attempts at a compliment will earn a severe backhand across the lips: "You hit really hard for a girl."

    Our own FA's---anyone invited back?

    Kevin Beachum is much more than a 'football player.' He is an all-around good guy and deserves the best in whatever path he takes. He seized the day after his pick in the 7th round back in 2012 by the Steelers. Wonder if he has the desire to become a coach...

    Our own FA's---anyone invited back?

    Here's the list of FA's from last year's roster who are still out there in Free Agent Land (or purgatory if you are the player). See anyone on the list for an invite back to the party? RT Jonah Williams DL Justin Jones DL Bilal Nichols OT Kelvin Beachum WR Zay Jones RG Will Hernandez LS Aaron...

    Arizona Cardinals have made a decision on QB Jacoby Brissett

    A backhanded compliment is telling a woman that she doesn't sweat much for a fat girl.

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    As to CBK and his relationship with his teammates. Judge for yourself if he threw his teammate 'under the bus.' https://collegefootballnetwork.com/carson-beck-teammate-louisville-loss/ (This is painfully familiar with a former QB who demanded that DHOP 'take the blame' for an INT.) More...

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    I looked at some of his games over on Youtube. When he first came back from his elbow, he was pretty inaccurate. Saw the same thing when Kurt Warner was with the Rams---he injured his hand/pinky finger (get a look at the mangled mess when you next see him on TV). When he got back on the...

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    Any reason(s) for that evaluation?

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    Winning will smooth over any 'personality' issues and losing will certainly accentuate them. The Cardinal fan base is so starved for a winning season, we are prepared to accept pretty much any personality flaws in our QB as long as he puts up more 'W's' than 'L's.' That's probably the basis...

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    Thanks for the correction. My comments were meant to be about KM and how he alienated his teammates. I wanted to make a contrast to CBK. That intro sentence that it was about KM got lost from my word processor program to the post.

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    That's the challenge for Introverts. They are not the gung-ho guys who appeal to the majority of extroverts in the locker room. The social hesitation (to the point of being shy) can be misread as being a stand-offish jerk. Alpha males look up to a 'super alpha male' as the leader of the pack...

    JC/Benson trade rumor to Cowboys?

    I thought Benson was a good pick where we took he in his draft. Saw him as a #2 and potential JC replacement when JC aged out/retired. Injury has certainly stifled any evidence to bolster his roster spot. Only minor flashes when he did get on the field. So much for his pre-draft rating. He...

    JC/Benson trade rumor to Cowboys?

    A rumor that would address our crowded RB room: https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/cowboys-linked-to-former-pro-bowl-rb-james-conner-in-potential-trade/ar-AA22MERh?ocid=msedgntp&pc=LCTS&cvid=6a00c8e0897f4d24a25f89c8ea892751&ei=21&cvpid=6a00cdf7e3c44f4b8891a2b95122eb7f

    Why the hostility toward Carson Beck?

    On several threads there has been some outright hostility towards Carson Beck---statements that are pretty direct---"i don't like Beck,' etc. What is it about CBK (the K added so that we don't confuse him with cornerbacks) that is triggering this kind of animosity? His play and concern...

    So do we start Beck?

    Has Beck completely rehabbed that gruesome arm injury? Perhaps physically---but the mental side of seeing bone and shredded skin is another matter. It might be wise to ease him into the pro-game...

    Who Starts at QB Game One

    The author doesn't have much confidence in JB (he's 31 on his list) and has KM at #22 (with the blame on the Cards for not surrounding him with 'talent.') Another dude who probably never watched a Cardinal game last year...

    Who Starts at QB Game One

    It is not as simple as selecting which QB to start. The question is ‘which QB can survive a new playbook, a rebuilt OL, and two new RB? Which QB will mentor that process along?” At this point, we have two vet QB in JB and Minshew with both having gone through the challenge of a new PRO system...

    Arizona Cardinals have made a decision on QB Jacoby Brissett

    The Cards FO (meaning MB and the next-up GM) are clueless and/or ignorant as to team chemistry and building trust with the players. JB answered the bell as our starter even as the team's starting roster disintegrated around him. He took the field with a pre-season mix of players, 4th-5th...

    Arizona Cardinals have made a decision on QB Jacoby Brissett

    Some time ago I looked up the issue in the league CBA. The answer then was that the league does not prohibit incentives that include 'wins' but it is a rare situation for contract language---you get enough guys with that incentive clause and you can blow the salary cap situation to heck. I...

    My body is ready

    Sorry D-Dogg. In the overcrowded lifeboat after the Titanic went down, you'd be one of those elected to take off your life jacket and give it to a true believer. He who doubts, is already lost. Wave to us as you slip away. Be like Jack.

    You have a good memory. I can remember going to a party with my father and leaving with my mother. She also argued about it, briefly.

    So do we start Beck?

    On on the same page PACardsfan. Coaching and Personnel departments that have been in place for a few years have a better handle on the available talent pool over a newbie staff. When it comes to finding someone to ‘plug-and-play’ those mature O and D’s pro-coaches know who to bring in. A...
