The Cardinals Will Pay for Owner Michael Bidwill’s Bad Decisions

He fired coach Kliff Kingsbury one year after signing him to an extension. And now he also has to fix a roster that’s in dire shape. Will he go all-in or play it safe?

Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill fired coach Kliff Kingsbury Monday morning and accepted the resignation of general manager Steve Keim the same day. This was, as you’ll remember, less than a year after signing both to sizable extensions meant to keep them in red polo shirts longer than a full election cycle.

Depending on the terms of these deals, Bidwill will be paying off these decisions for quite some time.
