Cardinal Press Conference

[Chopper0080]

Today I saw what I thought I would never see with this Cardinals organization.

The questions were sharp so Bidwill and Keim cutoff the press conference. What a bunch of pansies. Shame on both of you. Shame.

Meh. They both took responsibility. They chose to not specify what they didn't like about Wilks plan moving forward. They said the search moving forward would not be public. What else is there to say?

Bidwill said the Cards have reached out to a couple of coaches that are out of football right now. But given his plan of keeping plans quiet, declines to put any timeline of hiring a coach.

Bob Stoops?

Obvious Bidwill and Keim not happy with regression of defense

Sounded like 3-4 is back

We are going to disagree on this. They speak to independent media only once a year and they did not have the gall for most of them to get a question in. Now watch them both do infomercials with 98.7 all year long.

What are you really expecting? If they aren't going along with Wilk's plan it's none of our business what it was. To spill the beans on that would be petty, and a bad look to try and attract a quality coach to a very difficult situation.

Bidwill admitted his mistake and is going to have to write a 10 million dollar check. That’s punishment enough

Why do you think it is the only question that will be asked?

Today I saw what I thought I would never see with this Cardinals organization.

I got a lot out of it.

#1. Wilks was Michael's hire as all evidence pointed to.

#2. They were out early on Wilks and just road the year out. Fully healthy sucked. Never adapted to his players. In prior years they sign someone as an injury replacement and they were okay.

#3. I am pretty sure Keim isn't even on the hot seat. That was as emphatic a support for Keim as I could imagine.

#4. Wilks was never their top choice. They missed out on that one and they are still upset by it.

#5. They fully believe Rosen is their franchise QB.

#6. Will be active in waivers with the top priority

 

[Mr.Dibbs]

John Brown was out of Pittsburg St. People (including me) weren't thrilled with his selection in the third round.

Marqui Christian continues to be a core special teamer for the Rams.

I don't mind making unconventional choices with this mid- and late-round picks. It's not like we've gotten far with Michael Floyd, Kevin Minter and D.J. Humphries, either.

You are right about Brown; I guess his productivity made me forget. Floyd was a good pick, IMO, he just fell apart mentally and/or lost the love for the game, and I don't think you can blame that all on the staff.

Oh what if the guy they wanted to look at never took a head coaching job AND is already out of football?

I heard that they really liked Defiippo last year.

#4. Wilks was never their top choice. They missed out on that one and they are still upset by it.

They moved too slow on selecting a coach and staff. Hopefully they learned a hard lesson and make a decisive move and go for it. Bring in quality asst coaches.

What specifically do you want answered, that wasn't covered?

In other words, they were as angry and disgusted as us. And almost equally powerless. Wilks was incompetent and stubborn

My thoughts exactly. The Cardinals were not decisive.

#7. Why Sam Bradford was chosen as starting QB and dropped after 3 games after getting paid 15 million?

#8. Why choose a head coach who you are not certain to begin with?

#9. Was McCoy given to Wilks or was it Wilks choice?

#10. What evaluations led to signing of injured OL to large contracts?

#11. Did Keim's record from last three years and DUI factor in retaining?

#12. Is 2019 a re-building year?

#13. How long does the new head coach has to begin with?

# 14. Why is the team so thin at skill positions like WR

#.....

Nah, Lets not answer sharp questions, push everything on Wilks and run out of conference as soon as you can.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Good question. But it sounds like whoever it was got away from them before they could close the deal.

Seriously? You think the team is going to answer any of those questions? The press conference served it's purpose, officially announce Wilks was gone, the reasons why and they are starting a search right now.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

is there a link to entire press sonference. I've been looking but only found a 2 minute video.

I see your point and hope for these answers to be revealed. But not right after Bidwill got repeated kicks to the crotch and had to pay a fortune to a guy he hired. I am just happy he admitted his mistake and ponied up to rid the organization of Wilks

 

[GuernseyCard]

One of the biggest things I am taking away from that is it is going to take genuine leaks as to who the Cardinals are interviewing, the organization isn't going to announce anything.

Agents will leak.

 

[Zeno]

Agents will leak.

I think most leaks will originate from the teams that we ask permission to interview their assistants. We will hear very little from the Cardinals unless there is some NFL rule that says they have to make their candidates public after their interviews.

 

[Arz101]

Seriously? You think the team is going to answer any of those questions? The press conference served it's purpose, officially announce Wilks was gone, the reasons why and they are starting a search right now.

Whether they chose to answer or not is their choice. to stop the conference before those questions are asked in anticipation is cowardice.

 

[football karma]

I want to know whom they lost out on last year and ended up with Wilks. This keep it close to the vest thing sounds like you didn't last year and it cost you

ding ding ding

me too

so true

more than that when you include the asst coaches too
