We already know about the issues the New York Jets are having with Mark Sanchez and their possible desire to go after Peyton Manning. But, we couldn’t possibly think that they would be the only team interested in one of the best QB’s in NFL history should be become available. And ESPN‘s Adam Schefter and [...]
Remember former Arizona Cardinal, Miami Dolphin and San Diego Charger David Boston? He was a first-round pick out of Ohio State and a damn good player for several years. Some speculated that he was a juicer, which would dovetail with him being a beast who eventually couldn’t run a fly pattern without coming out of [...]
This past offseason, the Philadelphia Eagles had two “starting caliber” quarterbacks in theory. They had former second-round pick Kevin Kolb, and guy who was Superman for much last year, Michael Vick. Both on the final year of their contracts, one of them had to go. After careful and thoughtful deliberation for all of about three, [...]
There was a decent amount of hype building up this pre-season around Arizona Cardinals rookie RB Ryan Williams. But, it looks like that hype is going to have to wait another year. According to head coach Ken Whisenhunt, Williams “probably” has a torn patellar tendon. For a coach to say that, it is probably definite. [...]
A source tells Mike Jurecki of XTRA 910 that the Arizona Cardinals have interest in Buffalo Bills WR Lee Evans. After Larry Fitzgerald, it’s awfully slim pickins out in the desert so it would make sense. It could also make sense for the Bills, who have a logjam (sort of) at wide receiver. They already [...]
Free agency is not over. There are still several players available that can come in and help the Philadelphia Eagles. However, as I sit here on Friday morning, I can’t help but feel the Eagles have misplayed their hand. In poker, you can slow play pocket kings through the entire hand and probably come out [...]
Yes, let’s talk more about the potential trade of Philadelphia Eagles QB Kevin Kolb to the Arizona Cardinals. We’ve written so much about this now, that if it doesn’t happen, we’re going to tap Joe Banner’s chin when we see him. It’s not a punch, just a little underneath chin tap to click the teeth [...]
When it comes to rumors and speculation regarding the Arizona Cardinals, there is usually one place I go to check to see if they are total BS or not. And that place is Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic. He is as plugged in to that team as anyone. So when he comments on the [...]
Yes, let us again preface this post with “We’re sick of writing about these damn Kevin Kolb rumors.” There is no league right now and no one can do anything. Couple that with the fact that the Philadelphia Eagles, Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals all have very good reasons for putting out smokescreens, and it [...]
Hey, guess who is friggin’ sick of writing about Kevin Kolb rumors? In fact, I’m hoping that the lockout ends soon so we can stop hearing about “sources” saying the Arizona Cardinals are interested in Kevin Kolb! There was a report that surfaced earlier today that the Cardinals’ coaching staff was a little hesitant about [...]
Arizona Republic columnist Dan Bickley is hearing that Matt Leinart may have done a lot more to hasten his release from the Cardinals than just play like crap. He’s hearing that after the final preseason game, Leinart might have sunken some ships with his loose lips. Specifically, Bickley heard that after that game, Leinart was [...]
Mike Jurecki of XTRA 910 out in Arizona looks to have been right all along. He has been saying that the Cardinals will hire Pittsburgh Steelers DB coach Ray Horton to be the next defensive coordinator. And now, Kent Somers from the Arizona Republic has confirmed what Jurecki has been saying. “Source says Horton coming [...]
The San Francisco 49ers may have won the game Monday night against the Arizona Cardinals, but they lost something a lot more valuable. Specifically, Frank Gore left the game with a fracture hip. While nothing is official yet, we don’t see how he could avoid landing on injured reserve. “49ers will further evaluate Frank Gore [...]
Since you aren’t going to go back and actually check, you’ll have to take my word for it when I tell you I am 100% spot on in my NFL picks this season. This week, I yet again will pick the games that JA and Perry were afraid to. They like to pick “low hanging [...]
Well, the Jason Campbell era didn’t last long in Oakland, did it? Benched at the half last week and apparently will sit this week against the Arizona Cardinals. According to Jason La Canfora of NFL Network, Gradkowski will get the start this week. “Raiders will start Bruce Gradkowski at QB this week, I’m told. More [...]
Arizona Cardinals RB Beanie Wells is off to a slow start this season because of injuries. And that doesn’t seem to be changing this week. Wells was again limited in Thursday’s practice because of a bum knee. And beat writer Kent Somers doesn’t seem to think he’s going to play this week against the Atlanta [...]
The Arizona Cardinals and DE/DT Darnell Dockett have agreed to a contract extension. According to Mike Jurecki of Xtra 910, it’s a four-year deal for $47-$50 million with $31 million guaranteed. “Dockett deal is worth 47 to 50 million w/ 31 GTD… he got PD!,” he tweets. Yes he did get paid. And he deserves [...]
Earlier today, PFT reported that the Arizona Cardinals locker room was buzzing with the news that Matt Leinart had been traded to the New York Giants. Florio acknowledged that he didn’t know if there was any truth to the rumor. Well, Jay Glazer says that there isn’t any truth to it. “Giants are not interested [...]
If you haven’t been following the Matt Leinart saga, let me catch you up to speed. The Arizona Cardinals and former USC quarterback can’t play football, so the Cardinals are trying to trade him because two rookies are going to make the football squad over him, John Skelton and Max Hall. Lucky for Matt, it [...]
This is a huge shocker. According to Jay Glazer of Foxsports.com, the Arizona Cardinals are actively shopping dud QB Matt Leinart. Leinart has been absolute garbage this preseason and we can’t imagine why anyone would want to trade for him. “Cards have been contacting teams today shopping qb matt leinart, according to several sources. Unclear [...]
Why do we have a feeling that Kurt Warner put Ken Whisenhunt’s phone number and contact info in his iPhone under “Do Not Answer?” He must be getting called morning, noon and night from the Arizona Cardinals head coach, absolutely begging him to play another year. Why do I say this? Because right now, Derek [...]
NFL Network’s Mike Lombardi is reporting that there is a real chance Matt Leinart will be released by the Arizona Cardinals during final cuts. I’m not lying, seriously. PHOTO CAPTION: Who needs CPR more? The dummy or Matt Leinart’s career? Better question: Which one is the dummy? I mean, what can you say, but wow. [...]
It was pretty clear to everyone in the free world that the Arizona Cardinals didn’t want Kurt Warner to retire. It wasn’t just that he played so well for them, it’s that the alternative was Matt Leinart, and he’s not very good at football. It would seem that the Cardinals don’t think he’s very good [...]
The Arizona Cardinals have lost a boatload of players during this past offseason. Gone are Kurt Warner, Anquan Boldin, Antrel Rolle and Karlos Dansby. Now, the team is praying that they won’t be without superstar WR Larry Fitzgerald for any significant period of time. Last night, Fitzgerald was seen icing his knee, and according to [...]
As if the Arizona Cardinals didn’t lose enough important players this offseason, now they have to deal with a banged up running back. During Monday’s practice, Beanie Wells got popped by safety Hamza Abdullah. He went down and had to be carted off the field. “I just tried to to be in good tackling position [...]
