Cardinals Hiring Kliff Kingsbury as HC

[Denali]

Outside the box?

 

What's next?  I mean if you're going to do some dumb shit and hire someone ridiculous, why not hire a hot porn star to be HC?  At least she'd be hot to look at.

He was never lower than #16 in total offense while being an offensive coach/HC.  While having a pretty modest level of talent at Tech.  That's what Arizona is looking at.  Defense won't be his problem, the talent field will be even.  Those were obviously his biggest issues.

 

If I were a fan of the team, I wouldn't like the hire.  But as a fan of the NFL, I am definitely intrigued.  In front of a microphone, and in front of his players, he looks the part.  They will respect and play hard for him.  If he hires a quality coaching staff, I wouldn't bet against him at all.

You can make a case for him as an OC but never as a head coach. 

 

Other than his cup of coffee in the NFL as a player and some NFL camps he has no experience there. 

 

As far as the talent deficit I showed you what other coaches did at that school. It is a good program not some perennial loser. His best season out of 6 was his first when he had Tuberville's recruits. Once he established his system and recruited his own players a couple of seasons the program declined. He should have been canned the year they went 5-7. 

 

A HC is responsible for the entire team not just the offense. His teams at Tech were super soft. Why would you assume they will play hard for him and why would you assume he will hire a crack staff?

FYI the Cards finished dead last in the NFL in rushing offense and defense. How is this moron going to improve on that?

 

He went 5-7 with Pat Mahomes at QB in 2016. Let that sink in for a moment. You know where the defense was ranked that year? 128th! Last in the entire fucking country! With Pat Mahomes at QB he coached them up to 5-7 and 3-6 in that conference. That is Derek Dooley level of coaching!

 

His track record of organization and  motivating was terrible. He was lucky enough to have Johnny Manziel as an OC and Mahomes as a HC so that makes him an offensive genius?

 

In the NFL you have to have some balance. His 2016 team only averaged 103 yards a game rushing and get this 3.2 yards a rush attempt. 3.2 ypc in college!

Vance Joseph is horrific.  This hire is looking like a huge dud already.

So what is wrong with Joseph as the DC?

Weren't the Dolphins almost dead last in yards allowed when he was DC, if not dead last?  And he ran a top scoring defense into the ground in Denver the following year.  He's awful at anything football related.  Kingsbury clearly doesn't know what he's doing.

You are right.  Not dead last but not real impressive.  Thought he was a little better than that since he became a HC.

I could see Joseph becoming the new Mike McCoy.  He gets jobs for no other reason than having a familiar name due to being a former HC.  I wouldn't be surprised if he's fired during the season as well.

The Cardinals might not go 0-16 in 2019, but they're giving their best effort to do so.
