How we feeling about big Suge White, right now?

How we feeling about big Suge White, right now?

His moral turpitude and horrific draft selections make him a dead man walking. I have feeling that he will stay but be nothing but a guy sitting next to Bidwill while Bidwill makes the decisions. He costs too much money to fire and bringing in a new GM who might not mesh with K1 and K2 is a non-starter. Bidwill is the owner/GM

 

[SoonerLou]

I feel we'd be 5-2 right now if Keim was better at his job.

 

[SoonerLou]

We need WRs.

However, do you trust Keim to get em?

Even a guy like Christian Kirk....hate to say it, but DJ Chark and Michael Gallup are much better.

 

[Timm Rosenbach]

I feel we'd be 5-2 right now if Keim was better at his job.

The dead cap money is what really is hamstringing the franchise

 

[WisconsinCard]

None of the above. He'll get at least another year to right the ship. The teams is much more fun to watch this year, so there's that...

 

[StreetTruckinTitan]

I feel we'd be 5-2 right now if Keim was better at his job.

If PP wasn't suspended we might have been?

 

[ReasonableMan]

He should be fired but won’t he’s like Bidwills right hand man.

I also don’t want him fired because I like KK and don’t want to blow it up like a new GM might want to do

 

[Finito]

not all comes off at the end of the year the Cards are going to have ton of money to spend this off season

 

[JeffGollin]

Of the various Card-related things on my mind, Keim ranks somehere in the mid-twenties.

Near the top of my list were the 10 penalties (at least two by #74).

 

[GatorAZ]

We’re stuck with him for eternity.

Am I the only one that sees Keim was listening to the fans and made a radical shift in approach this year? Hiring Kingsbury and drafting Kyler was a major risk. He knew something had to change and they were not going to win with Wilks & Rosen, or Rosen and another retread HC. This year was Keim saying, I've made some mistakes and I'm not going to sit here on my hands and let it continue just because we've sunk money and draft picks into a series of mistakes.

So far, Kingsbury and Murray have been great additions. We're winning in spite of our lack of talent at several positions. We're in a rebuilding year and I'm excited to watch Keim and Kingsbury rebuild a team in the next 2-3 years. I'm by no means a Keim apologist, but everybody seems to miss the point that these decisions this year came from Keim and we're in a better place right now and in the future for it.

Who was the person that drafted #74?

 

[Timm Rosenbach]

Who was the person that drafted #74?

Of the first round picks made by Keim in the last 6 years who are still on the roster, I have more of a problem with #43 than #74

 

[dscher]

If MB believed that BA was a major influence to keim and was a hindrance in the process of building his roster, then he will get more time no question regardless of how the season ends..

 

[bojack]

The bar is so low because of our blind squirrel. Just because we look way better than last year doesn't mean Keim did way better.

 

[Evil Ash]

We won 3 games in a row. Clearly it is time to fire everyone.

Can't we just enjoy victories anymore?

 

[Krangodnzr]

His moves are kind of working out though.

K1 and KK.

Byron Murphy.

Even the offensive line looks like his moves have worked.

Chase Edmonds.

 

[PACardsFan]

WOW! We win 3 games in a row & we have our QBOF & this is the poll we see?? Whether we like it or not, Keim has this year AND next year before MB even remotely thinks of replacing him. The only way that timetable changes is if SK gets himself into trouble again with the law. The way the team is playing right now, he may get extended a few more years at seasons end.

 

[iLLmatiC]

I'm interested to see how he'll draft without Arians. So far he drafted at least 4 decent guys this past draft.

True. But still not a good look for a gm who presumably got walked all over by his buddy/head coach. Who knows all the particulars... But he will get a huge mulligan if he can rebuild over the next year or two and we should have our answer.

 

[Solar7]

I'm in such a greater spot with how I feel about this team compared to a few months ago, and I used to love Keim, so I feel like I'm trying to date an ex girlfriend.

I can't tell if my heart or my mind wants to keep him.

you basically confirmed why i made the poll in the first place. The mood surrounding the team now is much different than before the three-game winning streak.

 

[Buckybird]

He’s not going anywhere after this season so deal with it. That’s reality

 

[CRC83]

I’m not a fan of Keim. I lean towards moving on, but I would be interested to see if the Kyler and KK decisions were all him. If they were I might give him one more year as they appear to have been the right decisions.

However, his inability to improve the WRs, LB, Oline can’t be overlooked. Although Oline has looked better recently.
