Cardinal Press Conference

[Minski]

Bill Cowher? Out of football?

 

[RON_IN_OC]

I’m not sure this is fair:

“I want to start out by saying I take full responsibility for what you saw out there tonight,” Wilks said during his postgame news conference at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. “It was unacceptable. Not even close.”

“We’ve got to do a much better job and like I said, it all starts with me.”

Why isn't it fair? Blown assignments and bad scheme are all on the HC...

Clear from Bidwill that Keim’s job was never in jeopardy this year.

 

[vince56]

interesting, reached out to some coaches "out of football right now"

If we hire Bill Cowher I'm throwing a party lol

Bidwill says he wasn't confident Wilks' plan for 2019

I hope the press corp follows up on this comments by asking:

"What aspects of the Wilks' 2019 plan weren't you confident in? Why? How might that translate with regard to your new coaching hire?

 

[Zeno]

I wonder what Wilks plan moving forward looked like. Whatever it was it obviously was not convincing.

They asked, he declined to answer

 

[Cardinal]

"Keeping our cards to our vest", most repeated line

Along with Keim saying “At the end of the day..”

 

[Minski]

Probably said “the game plan is fine the players just need to execute and also we will continue with 4-3”

Wilks was planning on doing the same thing

 

[Mr.Dibbs]

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.

It's going to be interesting this off season. If they truly want to win now (which they do or why fire the coach) who do they bring in as a coach and how do they use the cap room and draft. If anything maybe they'll be a bit more focused and stay away from people who are prone to injury. Also, some past draft picks seemed more novel or arrogant (Brandon Williams, Marquis Christian, receivers not named Brown or Kirk) than practical.

 

[Zeno]

Better not be Jeff Fisher

 

[Chris_Sanders]

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

 

[Chris_Sanders]

List of whom was hired last year

• Mike Vrabel, Tennessee. ...
• Pat Shurmur, New York Giants. ...
• Matt Patricia, Detroit. ...
• Steve Wilks, Arizona. ...
• Jon Gruden, Oakland. ...
• Matt Nagy, Chicago. ...
• Frank Reich, Indianapolis.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Seems pretty apparent that Wilkes was MBs choice.

Ding ding.

 

[Arz101]

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.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Might just be me... but Keim's words mean nothing to me. It's time for him to put up & produce, period.

 

[Chopper0080]

This was the issue with Wilks...he didn't know how to adjust. I'm not shocked that Bidwill was not sold on his plan moving forward, because it was probably to continue on the same path. Wilks kept saying that he was looking for answers as the season progressed, and it is not shocking that he never found any.

 

[Cardinal Bob]

Better not be Jeff Fisher

I would also say it better not be Rex Ryan (good DC, bad HC), Bill Cowher (away from coaching too long), Mike McCarthy (predictable, unimaginative offense, and mediocre success level with one of the best QBs ever), Mike Shanahan (too old, too set in his ways), Bowles (See Ryan, Rex), Marvin Lewis (see Shanahan, Mike).

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.

Ding ding.

He dressed well and didn’t curse.
