Скачать или смотреть Arizona Cardinals Have Tough Choice Between Veteran HC and Taking Chance on First-Timer

In this episode of Locked On Cardinals, Alex Clancy is joined by Sports Illustrated’s Donnie Druin for a comprehensive conversation about the Arizona Cardinals' ongoing head coaching search. The duo dives deep into the team's current predicament, examining both the “retread” coaches with previous head coaching experience (like Sean McDermott, Vance Joseph, and Raheem Morris) and the rising stars who could be making their head coaching debut (such as Clint Kubiak, Mike LaFleur, Chris Shula, and Joe Brady).

The show kicks off with a candid reflection on the challenges Arizona faces in attracting top-tier coaching talent, with Alex Clancy humorously framing the Cardinals as “the last pick at recess.” Together, Alex Clancy and Donnie Druin debate whether a seasoned vet or an exciting first-time hire is the better path forward, dissecting the pros and cons of candidates like McDermott (and the appeal or risks of the franchise for that tier of coach), as well as whether someone with strong ties to the franchise, like Vance Joseph, offers any real upside.

The episode also spotlights the allure—and pitfalls—of tapping into the pool of talented young coordinators. Donnie Druin shares his admiration for Mike LaFleur, detailing his offensive roots with both Sean McVay and Kyle Shanahan, and the hosts weigh whether play-calling experience (or lack thereof) is a deal-maker or breaker for Arizona right now.

Listeners get a real-time sense of the Cardinals’ “wide net” approach, the frustrations of being late to the coaching carousel, and the importance of assembling a high-quality, experienced staff—something that’s proven elusive in recent years.

Along the way, there’s plenty of humor, honest pessimism, and cautious optimism about the franchise’s ability to finally catch lightning in a bottle with their next head coach. The hosts wrap up with some big-picture questions about the Cardinals' near future, openly confronting whether fans should expect a turnaround or more growing pains. Let's discuss.
