His regular season stats are terrible. He made up for it in the playoffs some but apparently Wisenhunt isn't willing to take a chance that his DC will remember what he did last season. Their defense sat down at the end of the Super Bowl. He knows that he won't have the same players and players' memories are very short. So he needs a good DC. :confused:

what are the chances of him coming here as a positions coach? or do yall think he would rather take another dc job?

Probably a greater chance he becomes Todd Haley's DC with the Chiefs.

Then again, he was previously with the Browns. That increases his chances of being hired here :lol:

Looks for Keith Bell, the LB coach for the Steelers the last six years to get a long look. Coach Whiz want to run a true 3-4 and has experience with him. Clancy was a holdover from the Dennis Green era. Probably a good move in the long run. Not allot of tears being shed in Phoenix today.

Pendergast has been a pretty solid DC scheme-wise, even when the Cards haven't had the greatest defensive personnel.

I don't get it.

Cardinals want to run a 3-4, Pendergast likes to run a 4-3. Cardinals blew allot of leads late in games last season, including the Superbowl. Look at the Cowboys, 49ers, Eagles and Steeler games and you will get the idea.

If they want to switch to 3-4, that I get. And again, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him join Haley over in KC.

If you want to talk defensive letdowns though, trust me. We can trump you there :lol:

He would be a good fit at the open linebacking coach position but coming off the super bowl as a defensive coordinator I doubt he was going to take a demotion if he can be a coordinator elsewhere. However, if he doesn't think he can get on as a DC anywhere and seeing how most teams already have their OC and DC and assistant coaches set he could end up in Carolina. But I would agree that him going to KC with Haley is probably the most likely.

      Kicker

      Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.

      Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I basically made almost the exact predictions on a phone call with a buddy about 3 weeks ago. I really do expect Evero gone before the seasons end, Young to just not able to get over the hump enough and DC to head into next season on a VERY hot seat.
