Well, are they? Those of us fans who have been around since the beginning have to be thinking it at this point.

After the game on Sunday, I began to see quite a few posts on social media about “firing Mike Smith and Dirk Koetter”. Now given the way the team performed in that game, I can kind of see the frustration. The Cardinals only needed 3 minutes to score their first touchdown, then did it again …Read More
Photo Credit: Cliff Welch / Pewter ReportWell, the first quarter of the season is in the books and I think we can all agree that it was somewhat of a disappointment.

The team is now 1-2 in this preseason …Read More
