    Cardinals reportedly close to deal with Steve Sarkisian to be offensive coordinator

    This is actually a smart choice for the Air Raid install... Sark palyed for LaVell Edwards & Norm Chow @ BYU, it was that playbook that Hal Mumme and Mike Leach used as the basis of the offense. The concepts should be very familiar to Sark and should assist him in blending the CKK's offense...

    Bill Davis is Back as LB Coach

    No, he's not...he is USC's DC...if we took him as well, we might get a visit by OJ Simpson (I kid, I kid)...

    Bill Davis is Back as LB Coach

    First question for coach Davis, so...what is your take on playing Bosa at OLB?

    Vance Joseph is DC

    Is he a fine DC? Once he was back on the market, I didn't see a ground swell of teams running to interview him (despite numerous DC jobs)... The Panthers have been a defensive stalwart for a while.

    Vance Joseph is DC

    With one major distinction...once both were canned, there was a tremendous interest in Joseph, how many jobs has Wilks been connected with? In fact the Panthers are looking at Pagano...

    Vance Joseph is DC

    More importantly, you hire the heir apparent to both coordinator jobs and groom them for a seamless transition.

    Vance Joseph is DC

    Nice hire! The proactivity is paying off with a larger pool of candidates.

    Potential offensive coordinator - my suggestions

    Chudzinski has also worked within the Don Coryell tree as well with Norv Turner...Super sharp guy and would be a smart choice to blend concepts.

    Headcoach Kliff Kingsbury and his assistant coaches

    Thanks for the insight DRM08, I think most staffs have multiple assistants to the position coach, so it should be easy to have two specialists.

    Headcoach Kliff Kingsbury and his assistant coaches

    I know CKK claims he does run a "pure" Air Raid, but one thing I do know about the system is the premium they put on WR development... Not in the physical, measurable sense, but in a mental sense (exploiting zones and sharing mental models with everyone in the route & QB) and specialize to the...

    Greg Williams DC is available - GO GET HIM NOW

    Seriously, ARZCardinals...trust me when I tell you, living here in SD and seeing the Spanos up close and personal, there isn't a worse run organization in the league. You take Phillip Rivers off the team, Anthony Lynn doesn't have a job... You want to talk about bad GMs? Got lucky with Bosa...

    Cards Keeping ST Coach Jeff Rodgers

    Great first move! Bravo!

    Vance Joseph in the building today??

    We need to leverage Gambo to make the league think we are going after Haskins or Murray to get some more value on the #1 pick

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    Once again Gambo is in mid-season form, his reported "candidates" does not include the guy in the building interviewing...

    Vance Joseph in the building today??

    Well, regardless of who we end up with, NOBODY can accuse the FO of not being aggressive.

    Kingsburys Plan...Why the Cardinals hired him!

    Oh I could see how you could miss him...he was the guy running for his life...he was the guy whose mechanics started to change and breakdown because he could not step up in the pocket...he was the guy, who played 3 years in a pro style offense at a major university and was able to show a good...

    Kingsburys Plan...Why the Cardinals hired him!

    I stand corrected.

    Kingsburys Plan...Why the Cardinals hired him!

    So we are using a sound bite compliment about a rival player (on an established top team) in October, the week before they played OU as a leaked plan? Really? I find this highly unlikely and borderline tin foil hat-ish... I am certain the plan he sold MB and SK is the development of the...

    Best #1 pick for 3-4 Defense

    Couldn't be any worse than watching a 43 team drop a DE into the flat or hook to facilitate a zone blitz (common practice for aggressive 43 teams)...

    Not even a DC rumor yet

    BA was CP's coordinator not the other way around...so BA was part of CP's "band"...

    Best #1 pick for 3-4 Defense

    I think KJ Wright is instinctive and gets off blocks enough he could make the transition to one of the ILBs. I would be concerned with both Mayowa and Golden as a 5 tech end, they are both too light and would get swallowed on combo blocks with the guard and tackles. Great point on Joey being...

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    No worries! I hope we just find someone who maximizes our talent!

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    I am sorry but you are mistaken...The Ravens went to a 34 hybrid when Mike Nolan took over as DC after Marvin Lewis went to the Bengals.

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Sorry, but it was clearly a 43...Ray Lewis was a MIKE... https://www.baltimorebeatdown.com/2010/4/9/1412079/football-101-the-ravens-hybrid This was the only link I could find mentioning it... Additionally, Lewis ran a 43 in Washington.

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Marvin Lewis is a 43 DC...not a 34.
