    Rookie QB Comparison

    Some people were thinking that and didn't post it because it wasn't worth the inevitable reaction but the term "rookie" to me means the same thing as a redshirt freshman. So true freshman, redshirted, not the same thing but..... the same thing.

    OT: Todd Haley fired

    Some people you like, some you don't. I think this guy will be good somewhere usually have to bottom out first, in fact his father in law had that problem I think. In today's NFL you really don't control much, who the players are, their attitudes, all you can control is you. I think he's...

    The Curtain Falls

    Harry is awesome! We all can agree to disagree and I can't count how many times I've wanted to quit on the Caridnals, football in general. I'm also a baseball Cardinal fan and if you want finiky fans there's a bunch of fans that would never tolerate the levels of ineptitude that all us...

    Left-Wich was the Right-Switch

    The players decided to win the game which I'm ok with it's their team, they can do what they want. In terms of draft choices hell we tend to screw those up anyhow, drafting number one is hard, probably not a good year to trade down either so it's simply not the Cardinal way to leverage a sucky...

    Steve Keim - Is he a bad GM?

    No I don't think he is at all. I think anyone who learns a new position for the first time is going to make mistakes. He's got to learn the landscape of the entirety of his position which is freaking huge let's just admit that. It's not just players, it's getting deals signed and managing the...

    Excited for Leftwich

    It was a very low bar but he ended up barely beating, at home, the one other team his predecessor beat on the road. It proves approximately nothing because other teams have no film on him or anything to go by but this will be celebrated until the next beat down by a competent team.

    Niners at the Cardinals gameday thread 10-28-18

    Glad I didn't watch the game I just pull it up on my phone with the little football icon being who has the ball, the score etc. Honestly that's more time than I should even devote to it....

    Niners at the Cardinals gameday thread 10-28-18

    I am not watching, won't pay to watch or bother with wasting my day. I feel sorry for those who watch this but I appreicate your dedication.

    What does Keim do at the end of season?

    I would bet big money this has got more to do with an organization which is poorly structured more than any one person being the problem. They need someone to create a killer process by which great organizational decisions are made. I'd be happy to offer my services for a fee and if I'm so...

    Who's your pick for GM 2019?

    I think this is a function of how they approach decision making in my opinion which is why I posted what I posted. As a GM maybe I'm nails at the positions you just listed he was good at but suck at several others. That's ok, hire someone on staff who's nails at those and trust them, most...

    Who's your pick for GM 2019?

    I dunno would have to research it. http://insidethepylon.com/nfl/front-office/2017/12/28/2018-nfl-general-manager-candidate-study/ There's a good start. Actually if I were Michael I'd start with a legit sit down and honest evaluation of Mr. Keim and it would go something like this. I want...

    Draft order if the season ended today...

    What's the tie breaker between us and the giants? Strength of schedule? Division record? Something else? I am confident when the season ends we will not get the first draft choice just because historically we never do.

    I Think I Understand Why Marvin Lewis Keeps His Job

    Well you know you can fool some of the people all of the time or ....er.... someone said something like that sometime.

    Patrick Peterson wants out

    Trades are more rare in the NFL because picks are so valuable. By the way drafting players is highly unamerican in my humble opinion. They should be allowed to be free agents as we all mostly are in life. Funny how this is agreed to in this case but if you did this to most people they'd be...

    I Think I Understand Why Marvin Lewis Keeps His Job

    It's hard to build something that is the best, only one team by definition gets there every year so your chances are always 1/32 but given differences in talent both management and players it's not really even that good for most teams. So just winning in the regular season is valued more than...

    What can we expect with Leftwich as OC?

    You would think however not necessarily fact.

    Great year to hire defensive minded coach

    The new rules make this into Arena League football. I like defense but the posters who say it's too late for all that are right. At best you can have a dominant player or two on defense. Two stud rushers, two stud CB's and on stud LBer with the rest average would be a great defense. More...

    Rosen - foot injury - he says he's okay?

    The problem has always been ownership because they don't have the money they need to throw it away like most of their billionaire competitors do. It shows up exactly like this. Extending Keim, hiring Wilks, then you fire one OC to fix it all? Guy had fall guy written on his forehead. I'm a...

    Excited for Leftwich

    That would be awesome. I want like at least four SB that would be a nice round number, not going to get greedier than that, will take just one, but 4 would be nice.

    My final take on today

    Rosen could get permanently ruined by this fiasco. Sure he's still cocky now but give him 9 more games of this and he could be a broken shell of himself.

    Excited for Leftwich

    Me too which is why I keep watching despite all evidence to the contrary that some day we will have our Patriots run or something like that. I'm not knowledgeable about all fanbases but this fanbase is as due as any in my book for that. I keep hoping one day a great leader will rise up out...

    Breaking - McCoy Fired - 10.19.18

    I haven't seen all the games but from what I have seen it's highly possible this offense was giving off tells, we've been over this a bunch but back in the days of Mac and co, there were a few things about how a play developed so that I could just tell run, pass, run, pass etc. Now me knowing...

    Rosen is in a walking boot

    Turf toe is generally like 80% caused by artificial turf, you can get it on natural turf it's just more rare that you would. It's not a small thing for a QB either, it can throw off all their balance and mechanics depends on the player how bad it is, what toe it is etc.

    Excited for Leftwich

    I think at 1 and 6 you can put away any hopes of the playoffs. It'd take something heroic and optimistic to want more than that. If he comes in and does great I guess i'll be happy drafting lower but the worst thing would be moderate improvement, enough to win say two games, cost us the...

    Received a "Gameday Experience Survey" from the Cards....

    If it's postage paid, tape it to a concrete block or better yet am actual dumpster that has been through an obvious fire and mail that to them. /sarc. Just kidding, don't mail a dumpster to them, or I didn't tell you to do that.
