Sherman gets Cardinals job

Multiple league sources tell us that the Arizona Cardinals have selected Texans assistant Mike Sherman to be their next head coach.

More to come.

Multiple league sources tell us that the Arizona Cardinals have selected Texans assistant Mike Sherman to be their next head coach. It's not known whether a contract has been finalized, but the word is that Sherman is getting the job.

We'd previously heard that the Cardinals were planning to go with an offensive coach, and that Sherman was the favorite.

The Cardinals were primarily attracted by his experience. He coached the Packers from 2000 through 2005, and also was the General Manager for several seasons.

No coach has been with the franchise for more than six seasons, and the team has won only one postseason game since the Truman administration.

Sherman is the third straight Cardinals coach having recent experience with an NFC team. His predecessor, Dennis Green, coached the Vikings for more than nine seasons, and the guy before Green, Dave McGinnis, had been the defensive coordinator in Chicago.

The Cardinals' latest string of hires doesn't include a former Lions coach, since even the Cardinals aren't that desperate.

Well, if it's true I'm not jumping up and down, but I am cautiously optimistic and hopeful he can find success here. He was my third or fourth choice, so I am not pumped up, nor am I despairing.

Profootballtalk = Zero Credibility.

They're more reliable than they used to be. But there was the Brett Favre is retiring rumor earlier this year that turned out be egg on the face.

D-Dog, please just accept it. You'll feel so much better. :D

I'll accept it and wish him well once he signs a contract.

Until then I will yell and scream and pray this doesn't happen.

IF he's hired, I hope to start the Welcome Mike Sherman thread.

Once hired, I'll be fully behind him. Until then, I'm dead set against him with far more attractive candidates on the table.

Believe me, there is no 'short list' - he's it.

Only because it's the Cardinals do I believe they've hired him.
With all of the exciting, fresh-perspective coaches available this year, only the Cardinals would hire Sherman.

I'm seriously depressed about this. I need psychiatric help.:(

Does the above paragraph, especially bolded segment, give any indication of the integrity of PFT???
