Cardinals | QBs working on fundamentals

Wed, 23 May 2012 07:36:23 -0700

The Arizona Cardinals believe a full offseason of work under new quarterbacks coach John McNulty will mean improved play from QBs Kevin Kolb and John Skelton. The quarterbacks have been working on improving their fundamentals so that when a play breaks down, the fundamentals don't. Last season, Skelton had a tendency to not move his feet when he had to go to a second option. Sometimes the pass got there, sometimes it didn't. In the same situations, Kolb would just start moving, rather than adjust his feet to throw to a secondary target. "If you get out of rhythm with your feet," McNulty said, "then the whole thing is broken down. You may end up moving, getting out of the way and making a play, but as far as what the play is supposed to be, it's been lost and you're playing catch-up. More times than not, bad things happen."

Cardinals | Ryan Lindley is intriguing project

Sat, 12 May 2012 19:52:17 -0700

Arizona Cardinals QB Ryan Lindley won't be challenging QB Kevin Kolb for the starting job, but quarterbacks coach John McNulty said Lindley has a "big arm," and figures to make the quarterback situation interesting this summer. While NcNulty wouldn't rule out Lindley battling QB John Skelton for the backup job, it's more likely Lindley's immediate competition is QB Richard Bartel for the No. 3 job. "He's a big guy with a big arm," McNulty said. "He's not intimidated by anything out here." Lindley struggled with accuracy in college, and he said the problem lies primarily in his footwork.

Cardinals | Kevin Kolb didn't know about Peyton Manning

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 10:01:13 -0700

Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb said he wishes the team would have communicated to him that they were pursuing QB Peyton Manning before he signed with the Denver Broncos. "Without getting into too much detail about our conversation, I just said in the future if you can just communicate with me, I can take it, if this is the route you're going," Kolb said. "I'd just rather hear it from him than the ticker. He agreed. That's how relationships grow and that's where we're heading." Kolb will be battling QB John Skelton for the starting job this season.
