The team was fallen to a 13 record, so today the media huddle up after practice, a chance to sort out what needs to be fixed with head coach bruce arians. From the 37yard line, he just throws it as far as he can, and there wasnt even a cardinal in sight. Come to work. Just lead by they need any talking. You know, you need to show up to work and guys will follow you. Coach arians disappointed, his offense averaging 30 points a game last year, yesterday his team failed to get into the end zone on a first goal and five. If you get a yard enough on a run, you probably run it again, but dave decided to bolt out the back door, we dont get anything and actually lose a half yard, i think, and at that point in time good pass called and didnt hit it. Arizona has failed to close late in game. Winning would help a bunch. Its a matter of getting that first one. Each team is different, stopping a drive, making a tackle, make a field goal and go into overtime and let the offense win the game.

Derrick hall on what happens next for the new general manager, who most likely will have clout over the whole organization in selecting the new manager. We envision a general manager that will have the responsibilities of player personnel and making those decisions, so its a process that will begin quickly. Its not one that we are going to want to comment on. And i remember being few years ago saying we are looking for someone to be in this role for a long time, and here we are, keep in mind that is obviously the goal here. From melvin to hinch to burns to towers to gibson, and now another change, continuity stability is something this Ownership Group is continuing to search for in the long term, as derrick hall just suggested.
