I feel like a lot of us would love the idea of having Todd Bowles back as the def coordinator. With Bruce Arians probably getting the Tampa job that is looking more and more like a pipe dream. Why not look to him as our head coach ?

The Cards should at the least interview him for the HC opening and see who he would bring with him if hired. We need a creative OC and QB coach.

I know his current OC was Jeremy Bates, who prior to last year was another up and comer type offensive mind as far as I can remember.

I guess I really did not pay atention to what was going on with the Jets, but wow, Bowles had to play the following QBs for the last four years:

Geno Smith
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Josh McCown
Sam Darnold

That is crazy, they finally draft a franchise QB and send him packing?

Jeremy Bates did a good job developing Darnold through his rookie ups and downs.

Hopefully we take a look at both coaches.

I aint against Bowles with the right staff. always felt like he was only a couple pieces away in NY....I was actually surprised they fired him.

Exhibit #1 why:

Exhibit No. 2 why:

26-41 as a head coach.

I think he’s pretty much proven at this point that he’s not a very good one. Still can’t believe all the people even recommending it.

It was his defense that got him fired IMO. The offense was just as bad though.

That is a fair point and true. But we know what a Todd Bowles defense is capable of. When you have no balance as a team and the defense spends a majority of the time on the field you are going to look like that...Which can absolutely be applied to Wilks as well.
