Arizona Cardinals cut three players with local college ties

The Arizona Cardinals trimmed their preseason roster from 90 players down to 75 Friday, and three Arizona collegiate products were among those who didn’t make the cut. Arizona State safety Eddie Elder joins University of Arizona wide receiver Gino Crump and linebacker Paul Vassallo as the local casualties. Elder, who went undrafted in April, made […]

Arizona Cardinals coach has no decision on quarterbacks

Ken Whisenhunt was not surprised the first question he was asked Friday was about his quarterbacks. The Cardinals coach, roughly 12 hours after his team arrived in the Valley following a preseason tilt with the Titans, gave no indication that anything has been decided. “I don’t really know right now,” he said when asked if […]

Kevin Kolb is just a bad fit for the Arizona Cardinals

If the Arizona Cardinals learned one thing from their preseason game Thursday in Tennessee it’s that their QB competition is far from finished. If the Arizona Cardinals learned a second thing from their preseason game Thursday in Tennessee it’s that while Kevin Kolb may have had his best effort of 2012 (which in itself isn’t […]

Five things I learned watching the Cardinals and Titans

1) Kevin Kolb will be the starting quarterback. Kolb led nine drives against Oakland and Tennessee. Skelton led six. Kolb led two long touchdown drives in the two games. Skelton led one short touchdown drive. With Kolb getting more opportunities, the focus of the coaching staff was clear. Kolb would have to lose the job […]

Titans coach calls out Arizona Cardinals offensive line

BREAKING NEWS: the Arizona Cardinals offensive line is bad. OK, not so much breaking, and not really even news. The group’s struggles are well documented, and the loss of Levi Brown to injury has not helped things. However, things have gotten so bad that other teams are almost feeling bad for Arizona’s QBs. At least, […]

Arizona Cardinals walking in a giant circle

The Cardinals quarterback competition is like getting lost in the woods. We’ve come all this way only to find we’ve been walking in a giant circle. John Skelton (not Jonathon Trent Dilfer) was the night’s biggest letdown. He completed 4-of-10 passes for 41 yards, tossed a pick on an overthrow and has a QB rating […]

Arizona Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt still undecided on QBs

After watching his two quarterbacks struggle against the Tennessee Titans Thursday night, Arizona Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt isn’t ready to make a decision on the team’s starter. “I got to look at this game and I’ve got to evaluate this and we’ll see,” Whisenhunt said. “We still have another game, another week of practice […]

Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb fails to impress against Titans

The Arizona Cardinals needed Kevin Kolb or John Skelton to step up and win the quarterback competition Thursday night against the Titans. But Kolb, like his counterpart, failed to stand out and take control of the Cardinals’ offense in the latest episode of this ongoing quarterback saga. The 27-year-old finished the night completing 17-of-22 passes […]

John Skelton struggles for Arizona Cardinals against Titans

Well that didn’t go according to plan. Making his second start of the preseason, Cardinals QB John Skelton was sacked on his first pass attempt and picked off on his second. He finished the night completing 4-of-10 passes for 41 yards with the interception. To be fair, Skelton did appear to settle down some after […]

Arizona Cardinals, Whisenhunt need a QB to step up

Under most other circumstances the idea of the 24-year-old QB with the size, mobility and arm to succeed would be a good thing. After all, what team doesn’t want to see a young signal caller take the reins and lead? The Arizona Cardinals. At least, they didn’t. We all know the hope was for Kevin […]

Report: Skelton’s job, but Arizona Cardinals could still be shopping for QB

Many people are viewing the Cardinals’ preseason game with the Tennesee Titans Thursday as the one that will ultimately determine the QB competition. After all, by the time the night is over both Kevin Kolb and John Skelton will have each started two games, and at that point should have given the coaching staff a […]

ESPN: Cardinals QB duo at bottom of NFL

The saying is a team with two quarterbacks really doesn’t have one, and many believe that’s the case with the Arizona Cardinals. Because while they’ve had a QB battle all training camp between Kevin Kolb and John Skelton, it’s fair to say neither has truly emerged as a great option. According to John Clayton in […]

ESPN insider: Arizona Cardinals may be out of luck with left tackles

The Arizona Cardinals are in a bit of a bind in trying to replace starting left tackle Levi Brown. Brown, who suffered a torn pectoral muscle in Friday’s preseason tilt with the Oakland Raiders, has been a stalwart on the team’s offensive line for years, playing one of the most important positions in the game.

Cardinals OC looking for QBs to show improvement

For all intents and purposes it can be assumed that Thursday’s game against the Tennessee Titans will be the final chance for both Kevin Kolb and John Skelton to audition for the role of Arizona Cardinals starting quarterback. It’s John Skelton’s turn to start, so he’ll get the first shot at impressing the coaches. Kevin […]

Cards end camp with big question mark

August 21, 2012: QB position still unsettled FLAGSTAFF — Following the 20th* and final practice, head coach Ken Whisenhunt declared it a “good camp”. Likely keeping their stay at NAU from being an excellent camp was the potential season-ending injury to left tackle Levi Brown and still-unresolved quarterback competition. Many hoped a starter would be […]

The Arizona Cardinals have spent a lot of time in Flagstaff since reporting to training camp at Northern Arizona University July 24. And now that time has come to an end.

Larry Fitzgerald not concerned about Cardinals starting QB

If Larry Fitzgerald has a rooting interest in the Cardinals QB competition, he’s sure not letting on who he’s backing.

Arizona Cardinal Larry Fitzgerald is no diva

There are many adjectives one could use to describe Arizona Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald. Great, outstanding, clutch, amazing and ridiculous come to mind. One word that will not be used, though, is “diva”. And, in a time when some of the game’s best past catchers have had a “me-first” attitude, it’s refreshing to have a […]

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — Head coach Ken Whisenhunt said Saturday it was a “safe bet” there would be a spot on the 53-man roster for Justin Bethel. The sixth-round pick, however, refuses to go all in. “He hasn’t told me personally,” Bethel said following the team’s walk-through Monday morning. “And I prefer him not to.” Bethel, […]

Time for Arizona Cardinals to cut ties with Kevin Kolb

It’s time for the Cardinals to cut their losses. I’m sorry they wasted over $20 million dollars on Kevin Kolb and I certainly don’t blame them for trying to get a franchise signal caller after the Derek Anderson disaster, but it’s time for Kolb to go and I’m not talking about to the bench; I’m […]

Arizona Cardinals turn to D.J. Young at left tackle

The Arizona Cardinals re-signed Levi Brown in the offseason because they felt it would be better to keep him around than try to replace him. Unfortunately, both possibilities have come true.
