Cardinals Head Coaching Candidates 2023

[Harry]

So if I understand, it was clear about half way through the season Kingsbury was likely enough to go. A wise man would have started considering his options. When the season neared the end he would have narrowed his options to 5 or so candidates dumped Kingsbury about game 15. On Black Monday he would have set his 5 interviews immediately unless one was delayed by the playoffs, then reset ASAP. Do 5 interviews, no need for a second round. Pick your man and make him an offer he can’t refuse; don’t let him leave unsigned. If you picked right, how do you overpay a guy who changes the future of the franchise. With Bidwill in charge, why am I not surprised it didn’t go down that way?

Sometimes that gets a little tricky when one of the top coaching candidates is still coaching in the playoffs or there's a 3rd party involved (like with Payton and the Saints). Otherwise, I agree with you

All but four candidates, if I'm correct, were with playoff teams, and access was limited.

One of the four, Reich, decided to go home, so to speak. A second, Flores, recently interviewed for a D-C job - a third, Payton, was money whipped, I suspect, by Denver. The fourth is a young D-C, Evero, who is a longshot at best.

Fail to see the failure you outlined, and the first step in the process was hiring a GM.

Because we needed to land a GM first?

 

[Garthshort]

Everyone talks about MB and the coach search. And I'm wondering if MO is involved?

Harry: any chance you could buy the team from MB? We’d be in much better shape if you did.

 

[sdscard4]

You think Monti now trys to get MB to hire a coach connected with Tenn or NE?

 

[PDXChris]

Give me Kafka and a legit DC. If we can land Ejiro Evero to he DC, I'd be estic with these hires.

[Proteus]

Well this is depressing.

Do we have any idea who the defensive-minded head coach candidates want as their offensive coordinator? These defensive-minded head coach candidates will almost certainly not succeed as a head coach without a good offensive coordinator.

 

[Krangodnzr]

I want Kafka now. Screw it.

Next up is Flores.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Harbaugh like Az?

Yes, I am certain that Brett Kavanaugh bestie Michael Bidwill and Black Lives Matter Jim Harbaugh are a match made

 

[RON_IN_OC]

HC: Flores
OC: Caldwell
DC: Evero
QB Coach/Passing Game: Garrett Riley (TCU)

Jim Harbaugh is also extremely anti-choice.

A study in contrasts.

Screw it bring in Kiffin!

 

[Chopper0080]

LOL McNair is ass and Tepper has been playing "I own an NFL toy" and cycling through about 6 QBs, gave a massive long term deal to an unproven college coach and has a losing record.

There was obvious interest between Payton and the Cards but they were obviously right not to give up a 1st and 2nd round pick.

Carolina hired a winning college coach that failed. We hired a losing college coach who failed. Carolina has a solid roster missing a QB. We have a meh roster and a QB who we take about moving on from in two years. Don’t know where you feel we are in a position to take junk to Carolina.

Matt Rhule makes Kliff look like Vince Lombardi.

All that's left is scraps from the dinner plate...

 

[Chopper0080]

Would you have preferred one of these coaches or with the costs involved if it's Payton? Ryans is an unknown at head coach with a limited time coaching at any level & Reich seems like a mediocre choice so to speak. I don't think they've lost out on anyone so far other than Payton & I agree with not paying a 1st & 2nd round pick for him.

Reich is a experienced HC with a winning record. Payton was had for a late first and second and at least brings competence. Ryans was pursued by several teams, knows the division, and has ties to one of the better offensive schemes in football. We pursued them all and they all said no.

I am extremely pro gun and pro death penalty and also extremely pro choice and 100% against all infringements on the 4th amendment.

Most people don't fit in a box

Out of those 3, the only one to factually say no is Ryans...he also said no to Denver.

Was it reported Reich was offered the job?

All three chose other situations over ours. Maybe we weren’t as interested but I have zero faith in the Cardinals.
