Wish I had this kind of in, but...
My question here is, in the past you have talked about Grimm having a lot of sway in personnel decisions, and then at other stages you have said that he did not even meet Snyder before he signed.
That seems very strange.
Bottom line for me. We need to build through top 100 picks on the offensive line and until such time as we have a good enough OL we need to adjust our playcalling to a style that will allow us to have success without a good OL. |
I have been specific in that it was related to the draft room. Grimm wanted Massie was what I was told specifically. I'm glad you bring it up though because that seems to have waned some what. My buddy told me point blank that Grimm was in the draft room adamantly lobbying for the team to select Jah Reid of UCF in the 3rd round in 2011 when we instead went with Rob Housler. |

Yeah exactly. Scheduling flaw for the team for sure. I am not surprised the team lost at all. Next week will tell me much more about where this team is at this point. They should do the Thursday night games for teams coming off the bye. The Cardinals are 11-3 in the last 14 games and all of a sudden the team is gonna lose out? Highly unlikely. But a loss like that humbles a team and maybe that's what was needed. Good teams bounce back. This will be a good test this week coming up to see if this team is mentally ready or not. |

That's the only benefit of this debacle, that we have some time to rest and people out there actually want Whiz going full pads 2 days after a game. SMH.... |
I don't have that site and don't go to any other Cardinals site on the WWW. I cannot stand listening and arguing with fairweather fans who don't even know watch the games. |

I know I was a little heated yesterday and Thursday and went a little far with some comments on what the team needs to do but really? Full padded practice over the weekend? That's ridiculous. |

I know. It's cool. Like the rest of us. You care how well the team does. We have been here through the lean years. I like what we are talking about now compared to then. |

We might not be favored for the rest of the season, maybe the Rams game... 4-12 looks like a good bet right now. _________________

I don't believe that. All of our losses have been fairly close. We lost to the Rams by 14 but it was a closer game than that. We lost to the Bills by 3 and the Vikings by 7. We'll find a way to win at least a couple game. My playoff hopes are pretty much gone though and that's all that matters. _________________ Favorite 2015 Prospects: Tyler Lockett WR, Tevin Coleman RB, Laken Tomlinson OG, Shaq Thompson LB, Nate Orchard OLB |

It's going to get worse when the teams gives up on Whiz and the blowouts start |

Trollol, you know.. because the team totally quit on Whiz last year after the 1-6 start.
But with Skelton starting I dont see us winning many more |

Me too. Champ called it. A missed field goal against Buffalo and nothing close since then. |
