The Arizona Cardinals made the hirings of three new assistants official on Monday.

Bruce Arians has brought Todd Bowles on as the team's new defensive coordinator, Harold Goodwin as offensive coordinator and Tom Moore as assistant head coach/offense coordinator.

Bowles has 13 years of coaching experience and most recently served as the Philadelphia Eagles secondary coach before being promoted to defensive coordinator midseason. He was also team captain under Arians at Temple University in 1985.

Goodwin worked with Arians last season in Indianapolis as the team's offensive line coach, where helped the Colts offense finish 10th in NFL with 362.4 yards per game. Goodwin also teamed up with Arians in Pittsburgh and spent five seasons as the Steelers offensive assistant from 2007-2011.

The veteran Moore has 34 years of coaching experience in the NFL. He spent 13 years with the Colts and worked with Peyton Manning for 12 years as offensive coordinator. He also served one year as a senior offensive coordinator. Most recently, he served as the Tennessee Titans offensive consultant for the final five weeks of the 2012 season.

Moore has also coached with the Saints, Lions, Vikings, Steelers and Jets.

    Offense
    If you're not excited to see the offense next season, you're crazy. I'm more excited about this new regime than I was with the Whisenhunt hire all those years ago

    You got to like who is coming in & this is just the staff, the beginning. Trust me Skelton will be gone & if Kolb does not restructure he'll be gone too. We have to have a QB regardless of age or experience that can play the stinkin position & Arians will get after it. He holds back nothing!

    Defense!
    Sure let's take the defensive backs coach who started with out with unequivocally the best the defensive back tandem in the NFL but ended with one of the worst, while managing to keep all the same players. Then let's make him Defensive coordinator of a 3-4 team when he runs a 4-3 scheme. Will the cards ever just have a good offense and defense at the same time?

    going to need to make some changes
    Arians is the same guy that had Rothlisberger holding the ball waiting for deep routes to develop that ultimately led to the Steelers qb being injured frequently. He did the same thing with the Colts last year with Luck averaging the the farthest downfield yards per attempt. With the Cards horrible offensive line, this could mean real trouble.

    As exciting as the offensive moves sound it's the defense and how they respond now to Bowles that concerns me

    If Beanie is on his way out, who do the Cards get for this offense?

    Who would have thought the day would come when we as Valley fans have more faith in the Cardinals and their FO than the Suns?

    Beanie
    Dont really think Beanie is out. This will be a contract year for him, so he should be doing everything he can to play his best football. He was in the doghouse of the old regime. I would think the new regime will give him the opportunity to prove himself.
