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.

      Canales and Mike White

      Yes. Morgan and Canales are too far in to tank. They have to show progression. And to finish 5-12 or 6-11 after starting 4-3 will almost certainly get them fired. Hooker gives you very little chance to win.

      Seth Walder: Regrading 8 trades from the 2024 NFL trade deadline

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      WR Jonathan Mingo to the Cowboys Dallas Cowboys got: WR Jonathan Mingo, 2025 seventh-round pick Carolina Panthers got: 2025 fourth-round pick Trade date: Nov. 5 Original grade for the Cowboys: D+ New grade for the Cowboys: F Original grade for the Panthers: A New grade for the Panthers: A Sometimes trades seem inexplicable because we don't have all the information (see Johnson, Diontae). But sometimes a team simply made an inexplicable choice. That's the case here. At the time of this deal, the Cowboys were 3-5 and quarterback Dak Prescott had just suffered a hamstring injury that would eventually cost him the rest of the season. That doesn't prevent them from making a deadline deal, but the return should have been great. It wasn't. Mingo's numbers at the time of the trade were rough: 0.8 yards per route run over the first season and a half of his career and, at the time of the deal, an open score that would have ranked 110th out of 111 wide receivers had he played enough to qualify. It turns out those numbers were a sign of what was to come. Mingo managed five receptions for 46 yards ... over eight games with the Cowboys. He has been on injured reserve because of a knee injury and has yet to play this season. There's nothing wrong with taking a swing on a young player who hasn't lived up to his draft stock. It's just that the price was way too high. And that was especially true considering how little the second half of last season meant for Dallas. Carolina deserves credit for recognizing the value of the offer and cutting their losses -- getting a fourth- and seventh-round swap for their 2023 second-round pick was a gift.
