Cards Keeping ST Coach Jeff Rodgers

[az jam]

First member of Arizona coach Kliff Kingsbury’s coaching staff wasn’t hard to find: He was able to convince Jeff Rodgers, who came to the team under Steve Wilks, to stay as special teams coordinator, per source. Rodgers was fielding interest from other teams, but Kliff wants him.

I like the move. Now BA can go after Amos Jones who was let go by the Browns.

 

[TRW]

Good move.

He already got Keith Armstrong, maybe he'll make Amos the Assistant to the Special Teams Coach.

Yeah, I bet he gives him a job.

Solid

Great first move! Bravo!

Good start . Also happy if they bring in KK’s wr coach Buddy. There will be some familiarity there.

Special teams were a bright spot at times in 2018... Keeping him was a good move

 

[Harry]

Good choice. He improved the play and responded by correcting difficiencies.

I think he should hire him as quality control over the whole shebang

 

[KYCardFan]

Good re-hire, special teams were a measured improvement over Less Than Famous Amos.

 

[JeffGollin]

Expected. Good move.

I know Kingsbury hasn't coached in the league but I'm actually floored that he doesn't seem to have any plan of action as far as assistants are concerned. You would think he would have had a handful of contacts that he would have liked to bring with him or interview. I hope the front office is not tying his hands or forcing assistants on him (ala Mike McCoy).

 

[gimpy]

Doesn't sound that way to me.

 

[NeverSayDieFan]

GOOD MOVE!

I am sure he has friends. But I am also sure he was hired with the direction that certain positions had to be filled by guys with substantial NFL experience just like mcVay was.
he seems smart enough to recognize that his chances for success go up dramatically with experienced coordinators around him Vs guys who only coached in college.

This is the way Kingsbury succeeds in the NFL. You don't have to out think the room in some ways. Hire good, smart people who can do the job. Set expectations. Let them do their job.

Kingsbury has a plan that he wants to execute. He doesn't want to leave stones unturned.

I like this signing

Kingsbury has a plan that he wants to execute. He doesn't want to leave bricks in lockers.
