Well That Was Fast - Andy Reid To............Arizona?

[PTBG]

I am reporting the Cardinals are very close to a deal with Andy Reid to become the team's next head coach. #AZCardinals #Eagles #NFL

I guess Reid is gonna turn Kolb into McNabb now with a full season.

I'm getting the sense more and more than Kelly stays at Oregon, but we shall see. Also expect Andy Reid to end up with the Cards job

Update:

A day after he was fired by the Eagles, Andy Reid may be close to getting another head-coaching job.

Tim Ring, the sports director at KTVK-TV in Arizona, is reporting that the Cardinals are very close to hiring Reid as their next head coach.

Other reports have also suggested that Reid is the favorite to land the Cardinals job. Jason La Canfora of CBS and Mike Jurecki of XTRA are among those who have reported that Reid is expected to land the job.

The Cardinals are believed to be interviewing their own defensive coordinator, Ray Horton, today. Horton is a minority, so that interview would satisfy the requirements of the Rooney Rule and leave the Cardinals free to make their hire. If they’re only interviewing Horton for that reason, then the Cardinals are violating the spirit of the Rooney Rule, but they wouldn’t be violating the letter of the rule and would therefore be in the clear with the league office.

If Reid gets the job in Arizona it would reunite him with quarterback Kevin Kolb, who has been a major disappointment since Reid traded him from Philadelphia to Arizona. Cardinals President Michael Bidwill has said he still believes Kolb can be an effective starter, and Bidwill may see Reid as the coach to make that happen.

Reid follow-up: I am told by a league source that the Cardinals deal with Andy Reid is "all but done".

For those asking about the "Rooney Rule". Per Xtra 910's Mike Jurecki, the Cardinals interviewed Ray Horton this morning.

I am told that Heckert will be joining Reid in AZ. @scottEballz: any truth to Tom Heckert joining him?”

Eagles beat writer @Jeff_McLane: I can confirm that the #Cards are very close to hiring Reid. One NFL source said it's already a done deal.”

RT “@AdamSchefter: One league source said he was "95 percent" certain former Eagles HC Andy Reid will wind up coaching the Cardinals.”

@mricart @fastlane_351 Bidwill said yesterday "I'm not giving up on Kolb yet". I'm sure Mike is hoping KK can flourish in Reid's WC offense
Mike Bidwill Monday on Kevin Kolb: "I'm not giving up on Kevin Kolb yet."

Yeah i thoght he should have sat out a year and recharged his batteries. Not to mention properly grieve over the death of his son. But maybe coaching is his way of coping.
