And then there were two (Poll)

Unfortunately, you'll never convince anyone on here that the new HC picked Vance, even if they truly did.

Agreed. The trust in Cardinals ownership is nonexistent. We all should be in 'prove it' mode based on their record.

 

[Stout]

If the next coach wants VJ as DC that is his choice and I'm OK with it because he has to live with results. If VJ is in any way forced on the coach or if the choice is based on who keeps VJ it is the same old Cardinals.

Except it'll be all company speak and "I welcome VJ as my DC" nonsense. There is a chance a new coach would welcome him on the staff, but there is no way to prove it. It is much more likely, IMO, that he would be forced and the coach would swallow it just to get the job.

I'm going nuclear if we retain VJ.

I wish there was a clue as to what these interviews are like. Do the candidates just go in with a plan and present it to the team or are there very specific questions the Cards ask of all the candidates? How much film of the team do they expect these guys to study prior to, are they supposed to be familiar with the roster (including pending free agents etc)? Do they go in to their potential choices for staff?

“He’s a very intelligent, great human being,” Reid said, via Paul Schwartz of the New York Post. “The quarterback will love him. He’ll challenge him to be better than he even is now. But he’ll do a great job.”

Prepare yourself. Please view my post “ question about VJ”. I’d like your views.

I think it's fair to say that interview one is a get-to-know-you session, and the second involves a more detailed analysis of the team and a strategic plan going forward.

It feels fait accompli at this point

Could not possibly agree more.

Probably right although it depends on how you define “get to know you session”.

I've been on both sides of this process, and it's generally getting a sense of whether the person fits the culture and a review of their background.

You interviewed for head coaching jobs? Nice

I kid of course. First interview for HC is likely fairly in depth including strategic stuff

Live look at Mike B's "get to know you sessions".

I'll never forget his rookie debut against the Cowboys, he lit them up on the ground & in the return game.

I remember the commentators saying he ended with the rookie rushing record after that game He was the Greatest Cardinals runner I can remember wasnt happy when he left but glad he did end up with a ring

Right, if we want Kafka, why not hire Colt McCoy who is also 'football smart'... that seems like the same approach to me

I don't know precisely how an NFL team would approach the process. I do know how multi-billion dollar corporations approach the process of hiring at the higher levels.

It is kinda funny, if we do hire him, Colt's two years older than him, haha.

Sat with Terry Bradshaw for a bit. Interesting comments on Sean Payton, his co-worker for the past year at FOX. Said Payton didn't want to go to Arizona bc of the QB. Also said he didn't want to go to Denver bc of the QB! Ultimately he took that job in spite of Russ.

Andy Reid says he endorsed Mike Kafka to Michael Bidwill

On Monday, Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill said he wasn't going to answer questions about his team's search for a head coach after appearing at the kickoff press conference for Super Bowl week in Phoenix.

Andy Reid can go gouge burgers for all I care. Anything he says or Mahomes is just to help a friend and based on no factual support that Kafka is ready yet. I know, hire Anna Muro (have no time to check his spelling but I can darn sure spell Bidwill right) which can shut his patty melt down along with Josh Allen
