The last team without a head coach finally made a decision. Bruce Arians will be the new head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals said Arians received a contract for four years, with a team option for a fifth year.
Arians was the Offensive Coordinator/Interim Coach for this year for the Indianapolis Colts for Chuck Pagano. Previously Arians was run out of town in Pittsburgh but led the Colts to a playoff berth after and abysmal 2-14 season.
Arians has showed success in Pittsburgh and Indianapolis but both teams had one position the Cardinals are in desperate need of, a quarterback. In my opinion, Kevin Kolb, John Skelton and Ryan Lindley have all shown that they can’t consistently get the job done and win games for the organization. If Arians doesn’t get a real QB for the Cardinals he may find himself going back to being an offensive coordinator sooner than he expects.
