They are better off without either one but they also just extended both of them and their QB.

I have no idea who would want to work under that ownership or with that QB at this point. 

Well, considering as he gets to keep most of the money who wouldn't take the job. I mean if you gave me a huge bonus and an increase in pay you can fire me before the ink dries if I still get to keep the money.

It worked out so well for Wilks. 

I get it, it's money. But if you were on a solid career trajectory why would you settle for Arizona and their known issues? To work with Murray? I can't see the great or even good prospects going there and I have zero faith they will hire a GM that isn't dogshite. 

This looks like a spot for someone rehabbing their careers or someone young or not really talented that knows they need to take any shot they can.

It's a terrible job to take. But coaches have egos so someone will be crazy enough to think they can do it and take the job. In other words someone will look at it and say hold my beer.

Sounds like Ron Rivera when Washington was available a couple years back...

There are a couple train wreck teams I wouldn't touch if they were open: Washington, Arizona, Denver, Houston are the first 4.

The cards are pretty talented but it’s a lot of questions around Murray and his ability to stay healthy

Murray likely won't be ready for week 1.

Murray (knee) "probably" won't be ready for Week 1 of the 2023 season, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    • Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.
    • Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.
    • I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
