Good luck Andy

Andy, you aren’t exactly in a situation of any port in a storm. The last Cardinals coach that had a winning record is? Were any of us born when that happened?

If this is the best head coaching gig you can get this year than enjoy the paid year off courtesy of Mr. Lurie and wait for a better gig.

Even if the choice is the Cardinals or like the Farmington, Maine expansion team in the UFL. Take the UFL it will be less toxic to your career.

Who cares, starting next year the Dolphins will begin their ten year run of dominance in the AFC and definitely in Florida. They have tons of cap space, five picks in the first 100 and good pieces already in place. Mark my words going into year three with Philbin the dolphins will be super bowl contenders every year for awhile, and I’ve been down on the fins as much as anyone recently but it’s about to turn around, finally.

Andy Reid is a great coach who built the Eagles up from the garbage pits that Rhoads left into a consistent winner.If he gets the job and builds the O-line up this team could win a Super Bowl in a very short time.

Reid -> cardinals
Smith -> chargers or bills
Turner -> oc / c’boyz

Whiz -> ?? (Probably oc somewhere)

Crennel -> out of NFL
Grampa from buffalo -> out of NFL
Shurmur -> who cares

Bank it.

Memo to the clowns who keep calling the Cardinals cheap:
YOU ARE CLUELESS! Do you watch the league? Do you pay attention to contracts? If you say the Cardinals are still tight wads you have a football IQ of 5.

Calais Campbell just signed a huge deal worth 55 million, 31 million guaranteed
Daryl Washington re-signed to a big contract this year
Larry Fitzgerald, 100 million dollar plus deal.
Ken Whisenhunt. 5 million a year, one of the highest paid coaches
Yeah, real cheap….idiots.
By the way, old man Bidwill hasn’t called the shots in years. His sin Michael runs the show. Next time you make want to know the facts about the Cardinals before all of you make asses out of yourselves

If you’re a Cards fan, the bright side of this is that Reid works wonders with bad quarterbacks.

AZ hiring Reid makes to much sense. That means Bidwill will never hire him.

DRC was pretty useless for the Eagles , I’m not sure if the Kolb trade was a fleecing or not.

Wouldn’t Ray Horton fulfill the rule? He’d be more than a (pardon the expression) token candidate, too.

While Reid is a good coach I think he needs to take the year off. He looked like a beaten man since week one and really phoned it in the rest of the way. Circumstances considered.

The only coaching job Andy’s getting is at Vick’s dog fighting team

Bidwell is trying to get the most out of the $63 million invested in Kolb… It could be good for both sides. As a Seahawks fan, I think Reid will make the Cardinals a better team in the long run and help make the NFC West more competitive.

Whereever Reid goes he will have success….just so long as you don’t let him pick the QB that starts.

Makes sense with Kolb

Im sure Andy appreciates everyones input on what they think is best for him to do in life but The only way Reid takes a year off is if he doesn’t get a job… He’s said it plenty of times which is why he is interviewing and looking for a job.

Reid was a good coach for quite a long time, though not a great one as his horrible clock management and other issues hurt the Eagles many times.

But he seems awfully burnt out from the last couple years and the trouble in his family. I think he needs a year off in which he doesn’t do any job to recharge.

Cardinals fans are the most delusional. This is a great chance for Reid. Kolb did great with his system and that team would be so solid

Reid may be the only coaching candidate that thinks the Cards have a franchise QB on the roster.

Reid nor Shottenheimer are losers. They both have done great with what they have had!

By: phreakin

I’d love the Reid hire but it won’t happen. They are gonna hire a first time GM and Reid wants more control than he’d get with the Cardinals. The VERY hot rumor around here is they want Todd Haley. Why they want him I have no idea but the rumor is hiring Haley as HC and keeping Horton as the DC. Haley would come cheap in comparison so look for them to go HARD after Norv Turner for the OC.

It will never happen, Bidwells’ will never spend the $ it takes to build a consistent winner.

Short of signing Warner as what everyone viewed a washed up back up at the time, have they ever landed a top tier FA? Warner was a fluke signing who won inspire of them, not because.

Nice area, decent fans, jack (x) in a bow tie unwilling to loosen the purse strings and change the perception of his team.

I’d like to see Wiz in SD or somewhere similar and see how he does.

The Cardinals were not fleeced for Kolb. The team needed a QB or Fitz would walk the next year in free agency. Who was available? Kolb. Sure, Bellicheck might cut Tom Brady in a drunken fit after a whiskey bender, but unless that happened, they needed to trade for someone. That someone was Kolb.

DRC is a head case and refused to tackle. He wouldn’t fit in Horton’s scheme and, frankly, he aint setting the world on fire in Philadelphia either. The second round pick hurt, but hey, trading for a QB is not cheap. That doesn’t mean they got fleeced. Especially considering it enabled them to keep Fitz long term.

Andy needs to take a year off… he’ll be hired in 2014 easy. With all that family sadness, the disaster of Vick and the dream team..etc. Recharge, recoup, and return in ’14.

By: fishfiletkray

fishfiletkray — Mon, 31 Dec 2012 23:26:28 +0000

Well considering they drafted Nate Allen with that second round pick, I wouldn’t consider it fleecing.
