Did Mike LaFleur just shift from Cardinals’ head coach candidate to favorite?

The Arizona Cardinals reportedly took LA Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur to dinner Monday ahead of a scheduled second interview on Tuesday. Bickley & Marotta ponder what it all might mean as the team’s search for its next head coach continues.

  1. Cards need a new gm. 3 years with all the draft picks cards had still questions at qb. Rb. Rt og. How many positions need to be adressed on offense. Last year cards went defense with all their draft picks. They also spent lots of money on defense in free agency. When is this team going to adress the offense and spend every draft pick on offense

  2. It makes absolutely no sense for any coach to come here because the cycle is always the same. The organization is incapable of identifying and acquiring a QB. Then in 3 years they fire and scapegoat the head coach because of their failure to do so. No NFL coach can win without a QB and it’s not their fault when they lose because of that.

  3. Bidwell………. So….. Mike. Are you hungry? There's this great Seafood place down the street; It's called Pete's.😅😂
    It's no wonder why things happen so slowly here; Your always in the Bargin Basement at The Dollar Store!😢

  4. Another guy with no head coaching experience? Another Kingsbury. Another Gannon. Another Wilkes. Another failure… Arizona, I have to turn my back on you now.

  5. I said this before and it bears repeating the problem with Draft and develop strategy is that while the cardinals are getting better slowly the teams like the 49era Rams and seahawks are getting even further ahead talent wise. this year I still blame one play for the complete melt down and its when Emari Demarcado dropped the football a the one foot line. we were 2 and 1 when that happened and the team won only one game after that. but if mike Lafluer is half the coach his brother is I think we have ourselves a really good coach

  6. Any Hc Cards decided on will be better than what has been there…every coach knows even if they lose every game, the pay check doesn't go down for losing…they still get paid.. Absolutely Nothing to Lose!! Change them contracts and coaches and players will try harder at winning games!!!
