If the Cards really want to be the center of attention, they should trade Jacoby for a 7th, start Minshew for 4ish games, then give it to Beck. To anon things up, after trading Jacoby, throw out a 5th in the Supplemental Draft and see if you land Kenny Rogers.
You got to know when to hold 'em
know when to fold em
know when to walk away
know when to run

I'll throw a new theory out there...JB is looking for more money to start...But, in reality, he doesn't want to take all that punishment at his age either, so he wants to be cut to be able to go to another team for the same money he was going to make and sit comfortably on the bench pain free.....Huh? Maybe??
It all came together while I was coloring Miss Piggy LOL

Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur didn’t have much to add about where things stand with quarterback Jacoby Brissett at a Monday press conference.

Brissett skipped the first two phases of the team’s voluntary work this spring as he looks for an adjustment to his contract and he remained away as they began organized team activities on Monday. LaFleur downplayed the impact of Brissett’s absence earlier this month by noting that the veteran has “played a lot of football” and would be able to pick up what the team is doing.

LaFleur did the same on Monday by saying that Brissett has “done probably everything we’ve ever done schematically.” He said everything else is status quo from where it was the last time he discussed Brissett’s absence.

“It’s the same as where we were a few weeks ago. . . . We’ve had contact, I’ll leave it at that,” LaFleur said.

LaFleur said he would be more concerned with a younger player missing time. Third-round pick Carson Beck would fall into that category, but he is seeing plenty of action along with Gardner Minshew while Brissett is away from the team.

The organization acts like they don’t know what is ever coming even though they are the arbiters of what’s next.

It is maddening.
Yeah...the inability to navigate very simple issues is where I can get the most critical of Monti. People on this message board could have navigated this Brissett situation better than Monti has. Some would have just cut him when he didn't report because of his status in the league. Others would have given him the bump he is asking for because it isn't a lot of money. LOssenfort just sits on his thumb.

Meanwhile, Calais Campbell preferred a return to Baltimore than another year with the Cardinals, in a season where he’ll be a defensive lineman at age 40. That like watching Randy Johnson win his 300th game with the Giants, especially if Campbell gave up a starting job for a rotational role with the Ravens. It says more than anyone cares to admit.

Point is, Ossenfort has now drafted 35 players in the NFL Draft. And his Cardinals keep falling further behind, teetering on the brink of irrelevance.

There have been injuries, bad luck and plenty of alibis to go around. But if the Cardinals don’t get enormous returns on investment from their young, homegrown players in 2026, you can’t possibly trust him with the No. 1 pick in the 2027 draft. Which makes the Brissett holdout a matter of clarity and urgency, one way or the other.

if brissett just wants more money for this year i think that's fair

if brissett wants an extension- no dice - we'll talk after the season

my guess is monti guaranteed brissett the starting gig and more money this year - with no extension and that he isn't bluffing

Just uninformed speculation because you can’t believe Monti is this stupid/bad/incompetent?
i've stated several times i don't know - that i'm uninformed

my guess has nothing to do with my faith in monti - im not a monti faithful - my guess is based in logic

again - im guessing monti has no problem with paying brissett more for this year - what gm wouldn't? it's only logical

but i'm also guessing monti won't extend brissett for the numerous reasons i've already posted - and i'm more than good with not extending brissett at this point in time

The result is Monti is off the hook in your mind though?

Interesting it's not done yet and Brissett isn't showing good faith to come knowing we will pay up. 10-12 mil sounds fair? But how long is he the starter?

Maybe we are waiting to see what we have in Beck and have Minshew. Brissett really has no leverage. If this gets into training camp he's done.

If he’s asking for another year with starter money, I think the Cards’ management says no. If the team had gone 7-5 with him under center, it would be a different conversation. No way do you hook your wagon to a QB who went 1-11. The team certainly will have a new QB next year — and maybe this year too. I think his only hope is to take whatever the Cards offer this year, play his butt off while leading the team to an improved record, then ask for more money and years. If Cards had a better option, he wouldn’t even be on the team.

What’s his most iconic song and movie?
I'm sure you are going for The Gambler in both song and movie, but I remember him most as an actor for Six Pack (1982) – A feature film in which he portrays a race car driver who becomes the guardian of six mischievous orphans.

I'm now watching AZ Podcasts comparing why Jacoby and why Carson. And they all talk about how Jacoby did last year. But, what is frustrating is that no one talks about:
* Injuries
* No running game
* Poor offensive line play
