If you know only one thing about Bruce Arians, know that we pulled this little league shit, and he made a jerk off motion and said fuck off.

as he should have

interesting the organization would put appearing to have a clue (via press conference ability) over actually having a clue (wins on the field) ... that is truly some sad shit

I don’t remember Trestman being a particularly interesting listen on the podium. So that was a failure all around.

Wow. What an underwhelming turn of events.

I heard that Shurmur is going to the Giants. Wow. I was pretty sure the consensus on this board was that he was headed for the Cardinals. So who goes to AZ? McDaniels?

Just another reason why Pace was so awesome in grabbing his guy right away.

shurmur to the giants has been a done deal for a couple of days now. mcdaniels is supposedly going to the colts, patricia to the lions. cards are the only mystery.

The Cardinals are expected to seek permission for second interviews with at least two assistants coaching in Super Bowl LII on Feb. 4.

Team President Michael Bidwill and General Manager Steve Keim want second interviews with Patriots linebackers coach Brian Flores and Eagles quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo, according to sources. The Cardinals interviewed Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz during the first week of their search, but he doesn’t appear to be in the Cardinals’ plans now.

So Flip to AZ maybe? I don't see that as working out...that team is kind of in shambles. Reminds me of when Trestman came to the Bears. An aged team like the Bears, except in cap hell.

or steve wilks apparently?

The Cardinals may have their next head coach in place pretty soon.

Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic reports that the Cardinals are “closing in” on a deal with Panthers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks. Wilks has interviewed with the team twice since Bruce Arians announced his retirement and Bill Voth of the Panthers’ website suggested things were moving toward a deal earlier on Monday.

Good for him. OC is a natural progression for him, so I wish him luck (except against the Bears).

That's an Adam Gase signing. Assuming the Vikes offense continues an upward trend, he'll be a HC next January.
