Jurecki says that Fassell is not coming here per his sources.

Jurecki said that Mike Bidwill tipped his hat kinda yesterday saying they wanted to do 2nd interviews and get someone hired possibly this week.

The two other coaches besides Fassell and Green can not be dealt with till after they are eliminated from the playoffs leaving only Green.

Said Green is leary of Raiders. Said Green wants power. He is willing to work with a GM but once he gets his foot in the door watch out!

Jurecki said Fassell is either in Washington or Buffalo probably Buffalo.


Fassell taking the Bills job means possiblity of Green to Washington. If Fassell goes to Washington Green is down to Az or Oak.

Said Oak is the least desirable position out there unless they get rid of the GM then Green would be very interested.

Is everything
There are a lot of conflicting reports on Fassell. Hope Jerecki is wrong. Would prefer him over Green.

....and just whom might Jurecki's "sources" be?

I'll bet it ain't Bill Sr, Michael, Graves, or Fassel.
...and that being the case, he's just floating an opinion like everyone else.


Also...Jurecki's record is not exactly one of flawless predictions.
He's hit a few, but man, he's also been totally off base more than a few times too.

Said he doesnt think JJ will be hired here at all.

Romeo Crenell could fall under the radar to us.

Said that Norv Turner and Jim Mora Jr. have expressed intrest in the Az job and they could be our second tier.

Whatever. He has been very accurate this year.

And his sources are internal. He talked to Mike Bidwill yesterday and thats who tipped hit hat.

Said that internal people liked Fassell better but they dont think they can get him in the desert. I would guess Graves.

He's absolutely more right than wrong.
Each case is unique, but he's usually on the money.

He said he was talking to Michael Bidwill FWIW.........

....and why, if that's the case....would Michael be "leaking" that kind of info at this point of the game???????????

Sorry, but that makes no sense at all.

For us "out of towners". Is the actual interview (edited to add: or article) available somewhere??

From this quote I just get the "sneaking suspicion" that there's some "poetic license" getting applied to exactly whom is saying what.

MJ is the "Cardinal Insider" for Fox Sports. He has daily contact & access to the team, mgmt, locker room stuff, etc....

He made the inital call on Emmit, Kordell going to Chi, & about every other big thing that's happened here the past few years

I actually don't think Jurecki has been wrong since he moved to KDUS and started being closer to the Cardinals. Before he was kind of a mouth piece of the players. Now he gets stuff straight from the organization as well as the players.

Maddog, I know who Jurecki is.

I lived in Phoenix for over 20 years and used to listen to him on the radio.

I'm pretty familiar with his history. Hence, my comments.

I haven't lived out here in the Idaho boonies my whole life.

In fact, Fergie used to get pissed that the players & coaches would talk to Jurecki before they spoke to Fergie.

"Don't go out there and talk to Jurecki...come in here and talk to me!!!"

Tango is griping about Jurecki's insights because they don't fit his Fassel theory. If you took out Green's name and put Fassel there, he'd love it.

I know a lot of you guys would disagree, but Norv Turner might not be a bad choice. I lived in MD during his reign with the Skins & followed the Skins closely. They were far better under Turner than anyone since Joe Gibbs. Turner was a very good X's & O's guy, he just wasn't Snyder's boy. Turner probably learned a lot from that experience & would be better his 2nd time around. Aikman gives Turner all the credit for his development, so a McCown or Reuthlesberger would benefit from a guy like this. Could you imagine how much better the Dolphins O would be if they had a QB & at least 1 decent receiver??

Why not? From what I see he is trying to let the fans know they are working on it without coming right out and saying it.

They have done the same thing with all negotions so far lately. Except for the Raynoch & Big contracts.

Nope, AJ.

That's not the case at all.

Certainly I favor Fassel over Green, that's anything but any big dark secret.

I posted a specific comment that I was referring to:

Jurecki said that Mike Bidwill tipped his hat kinda yesterday saying they wanted to do 2nd interviews and get someone hired possibly this week.

This DOES appear to be and indicator of some "interpretation" by SOMEONE.
Whether it be Jurecki, Endzone (who posted it here), or whomever.

All I asked was .....is there anywhere us out of towner can get access to the original comments EXACTLY verbatum as Jurecki published or spoke them.
