I agree with the firing but isn't now a penalty if you run over the center? I saw it called earlier today.

Btw it also happened on the blocked XP

Sadly it's still being coached to eye the holder after the snap, & not engage anyone threatening the A gaps...sickening...

The thing that bothered me the most was twice I saw PP yelling over to the bench like WTF prior to receiving a punt. It's like he had no clue what was going on and that's on the coaching.

Horrible special teams play yet again. Honestly the differene between Amos and a decent ST coach may have cost us a wildcard spot this season, let alone last season where we could've easily taken the division with solid ST play. Unfortunately I think neither Keim, Arians or Bidwill have the stones to let him go just now.

If Arians is back he'll more than likely be a lame duck coach and I don't see Amos gone. Who would want to come coach special teams for one year? Unless it's somebody who's out of a job already.

Jurecki just said on the radio that Amos contract is up after the season.. that's one of the coaching changes coming this offseason that he keeps alluding to, I am sure.

There's no way Amos can be back next year. If he is, that should tell all of us a lot.

Who would be your choice to replace BA? I doubt you get a better coach than him.

Anyone that holds coaches, players, and themselves to a higher standard. One that my wife can't tell what play we are about to run why walking by the TV with a quick look. I would go young with new ideas. I don't have a name but I would start with some young up and comers.

Worked for the Rams. If they hire a young defensive guy, get an old proven veteran offensive guy or vice versa. But, it’s hard to find the “Wade Phillips’” of the world.

I don't know one seems to get fired every year.

Gabbert's early picks dug the hole but special teams killed the comeback. Something has to be done.

Amos can't be back next year.

All HCs are hired to be fired! Coaches lose it at some point & run their course...Landry, Wiz, Coryell, etc.

It's time Jim! This team is regressing in all phases due to coaching & age! A new QB is coming. There's not a better time to blow it up including the coaching staff! The Cards are a dumpster fire

1) David Shaw
2) Todd Haley
3) Doug Peterson
4) the Texan DC
5) Lincoln Riley (if we get Mayfield) lol
6) Darrell Bevell
