Isn’t there a desire to put aside the old, tired NFL and take a step forward just like when Bruce Arians ran the “no risk it, no biscuit” with a team of veterans and a passing game built around a top athletic running back?Michael Bidwill and Steve Keim thought so, too.They didn’t settle for the rehash or the “old guard”.They went straight to the source of offensive innovation when they hired Kliff Kingsbury, to the shock and chagrin of many.And the move was trumpeted and heralded by many Cardinals fans who CRAVED the innovation Arians brought but with a young mind who wouldn’t retire...or unretire...too quickly.And while Kliff Kingsbury’s certainly capable of taking Josh Rosen and turning him around just like Sean McVay did with Jared Goff, didn’t we see Bruce Arians at his best when he was surrounded by “his guys?”Arians built up a deal of commitment and trust with veteran coaches and players such as Drew Stanton, Harold Goodwin, Tom Moore, Todd Bowles Youth Gabe Holmes Jersey , Jerraud Powers and more.he found guys like John Brown, David Johnson and even today, just hired two female coaches to push the limits of the NFL.In that sense, if the Cardinals were successful when building around Arians and were NOT when trying to shove past Arians players and the Wilks/McCoy philosophies together alongside a “B.A.” guy in on the run or the same knack to make something out of nothing.And making something out of nothing is exactly what the Cardinals are trying to do.If the team pulls it off and Kyler turns into a star with a coach who knows him, loves him, understands him and plays to his strengths...and he has a higher ceiling, then that might be a tough pill to stomach for Cards fans.Too tough, for now.And by all accounts if it is a “done deal” then it’s a risk to take, and believe me if you’re upset and frustrated by the rumors or issues with the front office, your time will come (tomorrow, in fact as I break down the problems with Kyler himself)But take a deep breath and know that the idea of team and football is more than just one person.It’s about a movement, from the coach to the players to the fans all acting as one in pursuit of a goal.And that means that if Arizona moves on from Josh Rosen, even if I may disagree, even if I might have a preference Stitched Justin Pugh Jersey , if it’s for the good of the team....I can get over it.I can get over it if Kyler is the first pick and Josh is traded, even if the value isn’t what I’d want...And I’ll tell you, if those jerseys go on sale right after the draft and I can get a big ol’ “Murray #1” jersey to welcome in a new era of Cardinals football, I’ll be in the front of the line.I’ll be cheering on Sunday with everyone and would welcome ALL fans to not be upset or disgruntled from within but to instead be excited.New isn’t always better, sure.I get that.The Cardinals swung the bat with Josh Rosen last year and the first year was a strike, almost a strikeout.If they do strikeout again, be proud and happy of your team for swinging the bat.They didn’t go out and try to find a retread or a “safe” option at head coach in Kliff.No, they swung the bat.And they’re more than ready to embrace the chaos if they do move on from Josh Rosen.Are you?I’m getting used to it.I’m not there quite yet (see tomorrow) but even I can admit.Life is easier when you can let go and embrace the chaos.And I’ll be #TeamChaos until that name is read and called and we can put this all to bed.Once, and for all.You can follow @blakemurphy7 on Twitter One of the most iconic figures in the Baltimore Ravens history will be taking the field at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, MD for the first time in another teams colors.Terrell Suggs has spent 17...The Revenge of the Birds podcastFiled under:NFL Revenge WeekTerrell Suggs won’t be looking for revenge, he’ll be looking to be right against the Baltimore RavensNew,4comments Terrell Suggs won’t be looking for revenge, he’ll be looking to be right against the Baltimore RavensPhoto by Rob Carr/Getty ImagesOne of the most iconic figures in the Baltimore Ravens history will be taking the field at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, MD for the first time in another teams colors.Terrell Suggs has spent 17 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens and the Ravens wanted him back.However Youth Justin Pugh Jersey , he decided that after the Cardinals made the mistake of passing on him in the 2003 NFL Draft, that he could finally come home and finish off what is likely a Hall of Fame career.So no, this is not going to be about revenge for Terrell Suggs.He is one of the most beloved players in Ravens history, joining the likes of Ray Lewis and Ed Reed, but instead the Arizona Cardinals first road game in the Kliff Kingsbury era will be a return to Suggs’ second home. It will be an opportunity for Suggs to show that he made the right decision and went to a team in the Arizona Cardinals who are going to give him a chance to build on the 132.5 sacks, which has him tied for 13th on the All Time list in the NFL.Suggs has a chance to leap into the top 6-7 with another good season, as he sits nine sacks behind Michael Strahan who is sixth on the list.Suggs has a chance to bookend his football career in Arizona, where it started with the Hamilton Huskies and Arizona State Sun Devils.Let’s hope he proves himself right.
