Mike LaFleur new head coach 2-1-26

[Brian in Mesa]

Who wrote it for Michael Bidwill?

Nicole Bidwill.

 

[QuebecCard]

I’m right there with you. He’s not even the OC on his team. McVay is the brains behind the innovation.

Who did the game prep for McVay week in, week out?

 

[PACardsFan]

I can get behind Ron Rivera as the DC. Experienced and he can help the transition for a new young HC. For OC, go Josh McGown. He is liked my Bidwill and he can sharpen his skills while implementing LaFleur’s offense. I’d be okay with Webb too! I just don’t the other OC’s suggested and too lazy to look them up.

No on Rivera!

If it's all McVay then why have all of his other OCs been so successful as head coaches? Good lord, at least give the guy a chance.

 

[Shane]

No on Rivera!

Why every year he was a defensive coordinator in the league his defenses were generally elite top five in most cases….

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I’m good with this. Hoping we got someone who turn the laughing stock around. Big job.

Because it was back in the 70’s when he was a DC LOL. I really don’t care who they bring in as DC/OC.

This is not true

 

[Goldfield]

So the reason we interviewed Kubiak was to push the Raiders to hire him so we get LaFleur and both the Seahawks and Rams lose their OC's?

Cards playing chess

Who wrote it for Michael Bidwill?

AI Bidwill

 

[Denny Green Fan]

I don’t think the five days matters

Obviously it don’t know…, just saying if he would of backed out it would have

 

[Denny Green Fan]

Curious to see who he brings in for staff. Offensive coordinator defensive coordinator will be keys to success

Does this mean offensive tackle at 3?

 

[FB94]

Could you imagine if LaFluer publicly turned the cards down today. No amount of MB/MO spin could take the stink off of the hiring process they went with. We are lucky there were just two openings left.

 

[Denny Green Fan]

i asked for a inner divisional oc when this all started - wanted kubiak but im good with lafleur

only question now is where does lafleur land on the qb debate - other than that crucial tidbit lfg

Would be curious what he thinks about Simpson

 

[AZ Native]

There's always that 1 a-hole who hates a move everyone else loves, right? Guess today that's me.

Gotta feel good for the people who really wanted Mike LaFleur. I just don’t see it.

He didn’t call plays with the Rams, and the last time he did call plays was with the Jets and that offense was brutal. He was only the Rams’ OC for two years, you don’t just “download McVay’s brain” in that time. Before that, he spent four years in San Francisco as the “passing game coordinator,” and the Niners went 29–35 during that stretch(Did make it to 1 Superbowl in that timeframe). I think people see the names “LaFleur” and “Rams” and get excited.

To me this feels like Bidwill chasing the next McVay again. I don’t think this is it. I will have a very open mind about this, and hope he can change my opinion. Welcome to AZ coach.

Neither did Matt Laflauer, Kevin O'Connell, and Liam Cohen were the OC's under Mcvay and all have been successful.

 

[Shane]

This is not true

Actually you’re right but none the less…. His defenses showed pretty well and got better each. You could certainly do worse.

Why are you guys living in fantasyland? Because that didn’t happen so we don’t need to imagine it.

Coen left for the Buccaneers to be a play caller. It’s an impressive list tho no doubt.

Rallis has remained on staff and not sought other employment for a reason, I think.

Now it's a question of whether the new H-C approves.

 

[Mainstreet]

This was probably the best direction for the Cardinals, to hire a young head coach with a good background.

 

[jf-08]

Giddy up and let's assemble a posse!!!

 

[slanidrac16]

You can make an argument that they did.

Yes… but it makes you wonder if we chose Lafuer or was it because Kubiak turn us down.

 

[Garthshort]

Yes… but it makes you wonder if we chose Lafuer or was it because Kubiak turn us down.

That's why it was a win-win for Schefty/ IMO.

 

[some dumb guy]

I wonder if LaFleur will read the Kyler thread here.

Well, he's only got a 5 year contract....so, he better get started..LOL
