Isn't the message up to elimination that we still have a chance at this thing, we can turn it all around, but we're out of time?

This group coaches and GM's like putting a mostly respectable performance out there is sufficient for retention. It's the same boring "gotta clean things up" "happy with decisions" every single week.

This regime is 15 - 31 over three seasons. Thats all I need to say.
Even worse - what have they built? Sure there are a few nice pieces, but the previous regime had some nice(r) pieces too. After 3 long years of planned bad, we were all expecting the carrot of a playoff team. By year 3, this thing should be a well oiled machine. We're as far away as the end Keim days, and now the FO somehow has to nail the most important position moving forward. Wheeee!

One of the saddest things about listening to state radio is that they’re still framing this season as “everyone thought coming into this season as one where the Cardinals could challenge for a playoff spot…”

In what pathetic universe is a team only CHALLENGING for a playoff SPOT, not even a demanding a playoff WIN by year 3 of a rebuild?!

my 100% guaranteed plan for Cardinal success:

context: I believe a complete reset is necessary from Monti on down.

Problem: Mike's rep will make hiring a truly competent GM difficult. We know at least one candidate turned him down during the Monti process.

Solution: Hire Les Snead of the Rams as the President / throw a ton of money at him. Snead has the GM title and currently reports to Kevin Demhoff, President of the Rams. A real promotion. Added benefit of poaching from a division rival AND sticking it Stan Kroenke, who didnt thank Mike for flying Rams staff to AZ last year (ha!)

Snead has enough of a reputation that a GM will come work for him. Heck -- Dave Sears already with the Cards is a decent candidate. Futher, Snead will know the McVay tree well enough to pick a winner for HC.

So you want Michael to give up control...


That's a bold move, Cotton

a CEO is still "in control"

he just works on more strategic things: new HQ / practice facility for one

and if they win a SB as a result, he still gets on stage and has it handed to him

This like the 2463793836524 time he has taken ownership for the Cardinals issues. It doesnt mean anything unless things actually change with the team.

The Drew Petzingfication of the NFL continues.

Whoever our next OC is, he's gonna love Tip Reiman. All the top OCs have been switching to use a ton of 12/13 this year.
