The drumbeat keeps getting louder.

Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum,
What might be right for you, may not be right for some.

Let everyone unload on this twosome and organization. Open the dam and tear down the levies.

 

[dscher]

Not the worst idea.

And even when healthy it would have still been one of the worse Olines in the league

Kliff is what he is & he's never gonna change & that's fine but Steve Keim is a terrible GM that's only good at one thing, trades. He's horrible at drafting & signing players & that's the main problem with this team. A competent GM would have this team competing for a playoff spot right now, regardless of Kliff. That being said, Kent Somers is 100% right, they both need to go now.

Nothing really new that most of us haven't spoken about.

Both Keim and Kingsbury need to go and let the new GM reshape the future.

Kiems awful, but Kliffys done literally nothing to keep his job.

I think roster is 85% of winning in the NFL

a good coach can squeeze a few more games out of a bad roster, but thats it.

so Keim has to go. His roster building is upside down -- and his teams are so brittle.

Kliff has to go -- not because of his scheme (which is fine) or his play calling.

The biggest reason he has to go is the standards he sets for the team.

Example 1: Two first down plays vs NE were negated due to illegal shift penalties from Hop and then Hollywood.

That is a pure lack of attention to detail -- from two of your best players.

Example 2: Points were lost on a good drive vs Sea game 1 when Kyler fumbled on a first down scramble because he was carrying the ball loosely. Ok -- bummer, things happen and THATS A COACHING POINT.

But then it happened again in SEA game 2 (two weeks later!), also costing the team points.

Change trades from "is" to "was". His trades for the last year have sucked. It doesn't help that he was making them as panic moves to fill in holes at the last minute due to his poor drafting and FA.

I’m conflicted on Kingsbury. He hasn’t acquired the talent, only plays who the GM makes available to him. The Cards have a terrible O-line, terrible D-line, terrible defensive backfield. I’m not sold on the quarterback, running back and some of the wideouts. So I don’t know if Kliff is doing the best he can with what he has. But, I’m convinced the GM must go. He’s the architect of the franchise and it’s falling apart. He has to be held accountable.

Kliff is maybe even safer not with Keim out for “health” reasons?

Perhaps, but I think a new GM would want to select his own coach.
