Horrible move. I don't like the Arians hiring.

Well partner, I reckon that really chaps my hide.

 

[Darkside]

Jurecki saying the same. Horton out. Saying he and Keim had a heated exchange. Not sure what to think.

he did a great job with the eagles last year lol jk

 

[desertdawg]

Arians Bowels better blitz hardcore and not just poop all over the place.

Keep it coming, laughter is all that can save Cardinal nation from the hateful responses that are about to ensue.

 

[JeffGollin]

Not happy. dumb move.

Wikipedia akready updated must be true. The guts resume is good as far as NFL credentials go. Isnt he a 4-3 cosch? Coukd be swithching(i hope so)

 

[New Mexico]

Knew it. Terrible move. Bowles was absolutely awful with the Eagles.

 

[FArting]

Good move

We have better players on defense that the rest of those teams he coached.

 

[Darkside]

Hope he brings in Tom Moore as OC and Tice for Oline.

Ridiculous. I'm calling it right now, Horton to Seattle as DC. Way to shine Cards.

Horton has turned out to be a primadonna and a baby. No one wanted you as their head coach pal. No one. The Cardinals weren't outside of the norm on that question. Cut your hair and show some humility and you can potentially get a chance to run a franchise.

And I hope that we finally move away from the 3-4 that has been forced on this team. Every year the team tried to bring in a massive Nose Tackle along the pittsburgh lines and has failed to do so. And after all that, we still get the ball run down our throats.

Good luck Horton, you will need it with your attitude

No problem letting Horton go. Sounds like he was pissed and felt like a jilted bride. Everyone has to be on the same page in order to be a successful team.

My question about Todd Bowles, is what's his connection to Arians?

Seattle has already named a new DC.

 

[Jetstream Green]

I still say that I would rather have a great offense in possibly a few years and a decent defense...than a great defense now and poor offense. It is an offensive driven league for the most part. I will still miss Horton and I wish him a ton of success

 

[juza76]

He did replace castillo that was fired during the season

 

[slanidrac16]

Well, as Duckjake always says...5-11 with him....5-11 without him.

Might be that way. Would that put 9-0 in more of a spot light roll?

 

[PDXChris]

Knew it. Terrible move. Bowles was absolutely awful with the Eagles.

To be fair, he took over halfway through the season with a team that had given up.

 

[Stout]

I don't mind the hire. He has almost always been a 3-4 coach, until he took over with the Iggles last season, so we won't have to transition to a 4-3. And for those blaming him for the Iggles disaster, he took over in November.

Well, if they hired Ray, then the Cards might put up 58 on them next year.
