    Fire Vance Joseph and hire Wade Phillips

    Wow... if we could hire him as an analyst and let him be a resource for VJ, that would be huge...

    OT: Time to fire up the coaching/ F O hot seat

    Um... some guy named Aaron Rodgers... you know, the coach who managed the transition from Favre to Rodgers... Also, I don't think "retread" is the right description, the guy's only HC job was 13 years with the same organization.

    Cards Part Ways With 2 Asst Coaches

    Don't know if this has been discussed elsewhere: -- Kingsbury wasn’t prepared to announce any changes to his coaching staff Monday, although a report came out that the Cards were going to move on from defensive line coach Chris Achuff and special teams assistant Randall McCray.

    Lost my friend over the weekend, huge Browns fan.

    My heart goes out to you in this tough time.

    GM

    I do not think we will find a GM who will be willing to inherit K2 and his staff unless we promote from within... So, unless we are ready to dump the current staff along with SK, the best I could see us doing by moving is promoting someone like Adrian Wilson or Quentin Harris. Which at this...

    Stephen A. Smith SLAMS the Arizona Cardinals as RACIST

    His head will implode when VJ is let go at the end of the season!!! Never mind our track record, don't let facts get in the way of his rant -- afterall, Wilkes has proven his brilliance, he has built a "dominating" defense over in CLE.

    Who are some DCs that you would aim for 2020?

    There are plenty of 4-3 schemes that give the WDE the same edge rush responsibilites as a 3-4 OLB... That was my problem with Wilkes (among many others), he didn't use people where they were best suited to play or capitalized in on their strengths... But since CJ is our only real impact player...

    Who are some DCs that you would aim for 2020?

    Totally agree, but our pieces are getting to be irrelevant, Peters, CJ, and Hicks could play in either scheme and those are the only ones I would be concerned about retaining... But you are correct, and while I think SK had a good draft this year, the last few have been dreadful and speak...

    Who are some DCs that you would aim for 2020?

    The intriguing question to me is, are we still tied to being a 3-4 team? Our transition to a 4-3 base last year was a disaster, we chalked it up to trying to force 3-4 personnel into that scheme...but with a lot of those guys moving on and our dreadful performance on the field, is that still...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    Southpaw, I am talking about rugby football NOT association football (aka soccer)... Please never confuse the two (aka 90 mins of pretending to be injured vs. 80 mins of pretending you are ok). Even if the soccer team in question is symbolic. I am 100% aware of what the Mandela United...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    1. My pleasure, reasonable people can have reasonable discussions. 2. I should have done a better job qualifying my position. 4. I am sure most fans already had taken sides or had preconceived notions. With that, I cannot speak for anyone else, but for me personally, the last thing in the...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    Agreed. FWIW, myopic was a poor choice of a word and fully retract it and apologize. As a football player: Kaepernick was a marginal starter at the end of his stint with the 49ers, despite what would seem a perfect fit in Chip Kelly's zone read option based offense (similar to the pistol that...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    I had the privledge of being in a support roll with an adjacent unit for then MGen Mattis, his fanatical worship is well-earned. As SECDEF, he did a terrific job putting adults (not political appointees) back in charge of the military. I didn't agree with all of his policies within the DoD, but...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    1. Thank you for your service. As I am sure you can attest to, we are not a homogenized group and I have no doubt, there are plenty of servicemen and women who feel the way you do. BTW, I am not the spokesman for the active-duty fans, so I do not speak on behalf of those who serve or have...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    I wrote in a candidate, General Jim Mattis ... Both President Trump and Senator Clinton were highly distasteful. For the record, I am socially libertarian, fiscally conservative, with the exception to the military - we need to be way ahead in size and capability to deter aggression (I know it...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    Please do not conflate my disgust for Kaepernick with his rights to peacefully protest as an American... which he has every right to. For the record, people in uniform (not veterans) protect your rights so the GOVERNMENT does not haul your butt away when you speak against them. We do NOT...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    Appreciate the kind words Solar and for your support of your family as they serve. When Nelson Mandela was elected in 94 he made reconciliation a huge part of his strategy. Besides engraining some white Afrikaners within his ANC government, he specifically used sports as a vehicle for...

    Cardinals to Attend Kaepernick Workout

    If you are a paying fan (aka the customer), YOU get to decide what aspect of the spectacle you assign importance to. The national anthem, flyovers, etc are part of the tradition and tapestry of the game... My personal opinion, Kaepernick is a garbage human... HEAR me out before you make any...

    Cardinals Trade for RB Kenyan Drake

    Even if it's only a 7th, it is something for a meaningful rental that will benefit our team.

    Cardinals Trade for RB Kenyan Drake

    I agree with you Solar WRT the other positions of need...the WR group is a complete disaster for example, but without a complementary running game with a legit back, teams will just pin there ears back and bring the house. I do not think Zenner or Morris are every down backs at this point in...
