Reid is being really aggressive with the DC search.

As Pat Kirwin said, Ray Horton would be a great hire. As I said last Thursday, there's a deep interest in Horton, and Reid did request permission to talk with him today. The Cardinals have yet to deny or allow.

That would be the slam dunk of all slam dunks.

But I do continue to hear Monte's name quite a bit.

This DC search is likely going to be quick moving.

Wouldn't this be a lateral move for Horton ?

Reid is not calling the plays as of today. That could change in September, but he's not planning on being the signal caller.

Which was a good gig if you wanted to go through life anonymously.

If Horton isn't the HC there, he doesn't want to stay.

Interesting. If Horton wants the job, I cannot believe that the Cards would deny him permission to talk to KC. If someone doesn't want to be a part of pretty much anything (company, team, etc.), you let that person walk.

Possible to have multiple assistant HCs.

3 Cardinals reporters have all said Horton is going no where.

Sounds like a BS title you give someone to keep them around. I have no working knowledge of the pecking order on NFL coaching staff. Someone educate me. I thought the 3 best jobs were......

Head coach
OC
DC

Would rather have a QB coach with QB coaching experience...

Reid and Childress.

If those guys didn't respect Nagy, he wouldn't be offered the job. Same goes for Pederson. Good hires.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

I can't get over that we are bringing Matt Nagy in as our QB coach...?

That's so different though. Romeo and company had shown nothing but reasons to not trust their ability to make a good hire or their actual reasons for doing so. With a new guy, especially one with a good reputation, comes some trust. Romeo was a good DC a few years back, but he never gave us a reason to trust his decisions hiring coaches. Not to mention that the actual decision would becoming from Pioli, which guaranteed that the decision would be made for the wrong reasons.
