Revenge of the Birds
The Arizona Cardinals and their fans got a good one in the interview season last night as San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator and former New York jets Head Coach Robert Saleh took a late night zoom interview with the team for their head coaching position.
To say this was an evening meeting and it seems like it was a good cursory interview.
Anderson would clarify that the meeting was not two hours long, but her information was about two hours apart from when it started to when it stopped.
Cardinals fans had been stressing throughout the day that Saleh was not yet scheduled for an interview.
So, when it happened fans were understandably excited:
What is interesting is that Saleh cannot sign until the Niners are eliminated from the playoffs, so his interview is really just a nice meeting for now. Sure, after Saturday that could change, but it wasn’t like they could sign a deal last night.
In fact, the only candidates that we know the Cardinals could sign as of today, if they wanted to would be: Arthur Smith, Anthony Weaver, Matt Nagy, Raheem Morris, Jeff Hafley, and Jesse Minter.
So, maybe after this weekend we see a little more movement, but for now, the Cardinals are taking their time while sifting through a large pool of candidates.
