Salisbury drinking the Koolaid

From ESPN Insider

James plus Green equals playoffs

Dennis Green loves running backs and feels they are just as important to his offense as the quarterback position. The signing of Edgerrin James is the type of move that could vault this Cardinals team not just into the playoffs, but deep into the playoffs. They now have three excellent receivers in Bryant Johnson, Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald in addition to James and quarterback Kurt Warner. This is a team that will put up a ton of points, and Warner is probably looking at a return to the Pro Bowl next season.

This was an easy move for James, because he's moving into a similar offensive situation as he had with the Indianapolis Colts. Just like in Indy, James will be the engine that drives the success of the team, but because of the success of the passing game, he won't see many eight-man fronts. Defenses know they'll be shredded if they try to focus just on James. He's going to love playing in the hot weather and will spend all season melting opposing defenses.

Now this team is going to have to make some tweaks on their defense to keep up with its offense, but the current defense isn't going to stop the Cardinals from being successful. They've made moves in the past few years to upgrade its defense, and now Arizona is just a move or two away defensively from being a true Super Bowl contender.

Screw Salisbury. He had a chance to be our QB coach and passed. He can take his weak takes somewhere else.

It's nice to heat that. The only problem is i think Salisbury(along with Irvin) is about the biggest idiot on TV.

c'mon y'all. LOL. I was disappointed when he didn't take the job here also. but, in all fairness, he knows how many hours go into a DG game plan. A week of that or a cush job as espn?
Maybe he didn't think he could cut the cloth.
Whatever, he's got good reason to be drinking it now eh?
