The Arizona Cardinals shuffled a couple of positions on their coaching staff Wednesday, bumping up John McNulty to coach quarterbacks while hiring Frank Reich to oversee wide receivers. McNulty has coached Arizona’s wide receivers three seasons with the Cardinals, and had been mentioned as a target of new Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano. […]
Money tends to play an important role with deals, trades and contract offers. But if money isn’t the driving force for Peyton Manning if he is released from the Colts, it could make it easier for the Cardinals to go after him. ESPN NFL insider John Clayton told Arizona Sports 620’s Doug and Wolf that […]
Kurt Warner’s last game as an NFL quarterback saw him get knocked out of the game due to an injury suffered during the return of an interception, with many thinking that hit was one of the reasons he walked away from the game a couple weeks later. Not true. Warner, who was a guest on […]
Sorry Cardinals fans, your last great QB doesn’t think your team is a good fit for Peyton Manning. A guest on Arizona Sports 620’s Burns and Gambo Tuesday, Warner said he thinks Miami is a likely destination for Manning. “Although I still make the contention that I think the perfect spot for him would be […]
Arizona Cardinals fans think Peyton Manning would be a great fit for their team. However, does the QB feel the same way about the Cardinals? That could be the determining factor for where the future Hall of Famer plays next season, according to former Cardinal Kurt Warner, and as of now he’s unsure of where […]
Another day, and there’s more talk about the possibility of Peyton Manning wearing Arizona Cardinals’ red in 2012. However, Tuesday ESPN NFL insider John Clayton appeared on ESPN Radio’s Mike and Mike (mornings 5 to 9 a.m. on Arizona Sports 620) and went “against the grain” and doubted whether the Manning-Arizona marriage will ever happen. […]
On October 2, 2011, the Arizona Cardinals lost a game they should have won. Leading 27-17 with just more than five minutes left, they had the New York Giants on the ropes, staring a 2-2 record – as well as legitimacy – in the face. Of course, we all know what happened from there. The […]
The Arizona Cardinals are one of many teams expected to pursue Colts QB Peyton Manning once he’s released by the team. Manning would be an instant upgrade over their current QBs, and if healthy would make the Cardinals immediate Super Bowl contenders. Still, they’ll have to compete with everyone else for future Hall of Famer’s […]
The Arizona Cardinals already have three quarterbacks on the roster. Kevin Kolb, John Skelton and Richard Bartel all played last season, and each one figures to be part of the team next season. That is, unless the Cardinals add a new QB. With a new Peyton Manning rumor popping up about every half hour, you’d […]
Giants vs. Patriots, part two. Super Bowl XLVI has arrived, and the game, while a rematch of the one played in Glendale four years ago, is set to be a good one. Our staff is fairly divided on who is going to win this game because, frankly, it’s a really tough one to call. But […]
I hate speculation. It seems like a massive waste of time to pontificate about things that may or may not happen. Contingency plans based on a speculative premise seem like a logical fallacy. Speculating as to whether or not Peyton Manning is going to be a free agent and where he might play if he […]
For Cardinals fans, if Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts part ways, it could be as early as March 17 when they know how serious the team is willing to go after Manning. That is the deadline for the Cardinals to decide if they want to give Kevin Kolb the $7 million option that is […]
Peyton Manning expects to play in 2012. The Colts QB (for now) missed the entire 2011 season after having neck surgery, but has recently said his recovery is right on schedule. So much, in fact, that he’s looking forward to playing next season. “Peyton certainly expects to return to play,” Manning’s agent Tom Condon told […]
The Peyton Manning-to-Arizona rumor mill has been churning almost ad nauseum the past few weeks with seemingly endless speculation, blind faith and unabashed hope. And while the topic of Manning’s future — and talk of him possibly ending up in the Valley — may seem tired, the news of his medical clearance to play football […]
Last summer, as the Cardinals searched for a quarterback, Larry Fitzgerald’s name came up often. The team’s best player, it was thought (true or not) Fitz had some say in who the team was targeting. At the very least, the hope to sign the Pro Bowler to a contract extension had to have played a […]
The only quarterback to ever lead the Arizona Cardinals to a Super Bowl appearance is making the rounds at radio row in Indianapolis at this year’s Super Bowl, and he’s got some interesting thoughts on his former team’s quarterback position. Kurt Warner joined ESPN Radio’s Mike and Mike (mornings 5 to 9 a.m on Arizona […]
Cardinals fans who don’t want to get too excited about the possibility of Peyton Manning wearing a red jersey next season should probably stop reading now. Manning, who is expected to be released by the Indianapolis Colts in the near future, is recovering from multiple neck surgeries. Should he be able to play next season, […]
Most Arizona Cardinals fans wrote off the team when the season looked bleak with a 1-6 start. As coach Ken Whisenhunt looked back on the season for evaluations, he noticed that’s when the team started to get stronger. “I think the thing that we learned about our football team from sitting here a couple weeks […]
Your eyes did not deceive you last season: Cardinals QBs faced a significant amount of pressure. However, both Kevin Kolb and John Skelton fared differently under duress, and ProFootballFocus.com broke it all down. According to the site, Skelton was actually better at avoiding sacks than his teammate, as he was sacked on 23 of 120 […]
All the Arizona Cardinals seemed to have learned about their QB situation last season was that they still have much to learn about their QB situation. Kevin Kolb and John Skelton combined to lead the team to an 8-8 record, but they also amassed just 20 touchdowns against 22 interceptions, while completing roughly 56 percent […]
Peyton Manning expects to play football next season. The Indianapolis Colts QB (for now) is still recovering from multiple neck surgeries, and with an assumption that his days in blue and white are coming to an end, there is excitement in QB-needy cities that their team could be the next home for one of the […]
New Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano would like to hire away Arizona Cardinals WR coach John McNulty, presumably to be his offensive coordinator. McNulty is under contract with the Cardinals, however, and the team has refused to let him interview for the job, meaning Schiano and his team should be moving on to another […]
Peyton Manning, quarterback of the Arizona Cardinals. Sounds good, doesn’t it? Well, to many of us yes, yes it does. But for former NFL QB and current NFL analyst Joe Theismann, that’s not exactly the case. “If he can go out and play, let him be an Indianapolis Colt,” Theismann told Arizona Sports 620’s Doug […]
We’re about a month into the “Peyton Manning to (fill in the blank)” rumors, and since we’re over a month away from Manning’s fate with the Colts becoming a known quantity, they’re not going away any time soon. Manning’s future was a hot topic in Peter King’s Monday Morning QB column on SI.com. Writes King: […]
The NFC lost 59-41 to the AFC in Sunday’s Pro Bowl in Honolulu, but don’t pin that loss on Cardinals’ receiver Larry Fitzgerald. Fitz caught 6 passes for 111 yards and 3 touchdowns, including two scores in the game’s first 6 minutes. The NFC opened the scoring when Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers found Fitzgerald in […]
It sounds so good doesn’t it Jon Bloom? “And starting at quarterback for the Cardinals, Peyton Manneeeeng!!!” But before you Cardinals fans start saving up for those red #18 jerseys, think about this: assuming the Colts do cut him loose, and assuming he gets a clean bill of health by March 8th, Manning might have […]
The Peyton Manning-Jim Irsay-Indianapolis Colts saga that’s been playing out over the last few weeks has ignited impassioned debates around the NFL and in the media about what’s the best resolution for all parties involved. ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski joined Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 620 Friday and explained what he feels will be […]
The Arizona Cardinals needed a quarterback in 2006. Entering the draft, Arizona had just veteran Kurt Warner on the roster, and the former star was not exactly coming off an impressive 2005 campaign. So, with a new stadium opening and a need at the position, the Cardinals and then-coach Dennis Green felt fortunate when Heisman […]
It was long thought that Beanie Wells, once the season was over, would have surgery done on his ailing right knee. Well, the operation is done. RB Beanie Wells did indeed have arthroscopic surgery on his right knee today. The procedure was performed by Dr. James Andrews in Florida. — Darren Urban (@Cardschatter) January 25, […]
It appears Todd Haley may be coming back to the Cardinals after all. Haley has been looking for work since being fired as head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs December 12, and though he’s been connected to the Cardinals, the only vacant spot on the staff is that of a QB coach, a job […]
