As a huge criticizer of most of the moves that are made here with our team, I must admit that if we hire Andy Reid, it would be a GREAT move. I was sold on Horton getting the job here, no doubt. I never thought that Andy Reid would even be an option for us. Reasons why this works,
1.Andy Reid plays to his players strengths.
As a west coast offense coach, this is a dream come true for Cardinals fans. If Kolb can stay healthy, I think Reid gives him the best chance to succeed. If not, I like his QB development skills. This is where Ken Whisenhunt failed. You all know as well as I do that Whis never played to his players strengths. It was HIS system and if you couldn't run it, you paid the price.
2.Andy Reid is well respected around the league.
When free agency comes, who do you think that players would rather play for? Whisenhunt or Reid? That's a no-brainer. In fact, not many players would choose any other coach to play for than Reid. Just look at all the free agent signings he has brought in. Of course, many of them didn't work out as well as they planned but the point is that players know they can win with Reid. His credibility is bigger than ANY coach who has walked through the doors here in Arizona. Look at Philly. He drew the interest of top free agents.
3.Andy Reid is a great offensive mind
There is no doubt that Andy Reid is an offensive coach. With the worst offense in the NFL, he will make us better. It's the Cardinals biggest need. Yes, I applaud a Bidwill for once for his consideration of Reid.
Overall, if Horton leaves, it's not like our defensive players are leaving with him. The Cardinals need an offensive mind. There is not many better than Andy Reid. Mike Bidwill, I applaud you. This is a move that I never would of thought that the Cardinals organization would have a chance at. Get er dun!!!!!
