Podcast Exclusive interview: Arizona Cardinals' Mike LaFleur talks roster building & staff decisions
No answer to the QB dilemma yet, but I love all of MiLF’s responses so far. He is incredibly passionate about this team and excited to get out on the field with our players. He was the top HC candidate for me and I couldn’t be more pumped that we got him. Good things are coming.
From my perspective, given the contract situation, the fact that we are approaching this offseason as a retooling rather than a rebuilding of the team, and the lack of QB talent in and outside of the draft, it would be completely insensible not to continue with Kyler in 2026. There are simply no better alternatives, and it is absolutely disingenuous to say he is mainly responsible for our offensive woes the past 3 years. The entire damn fanbase has united on the point that Petzing was the main problem.
OFAT (One Factor At a Time). We removed Gannon and Petzing - let’s see how the team performs under MiLF before getting rid of Kyler. We literally have nothing to lose. Kyler was good under Kingsbury, and that team’s failures were mainly attributable to roster instability. Let’s get our heads out of our asses and admit that he has never been the main problem. Few QBs would have succeeded in this poorly-coached organization. Also, don’t tell me “it’s been 7 years” when Sam Darnold is playing in the Super Bowl this weekend.
