Arizona Cardinals heading in right direction with the quarterbacks – NFL News Update
As the chances of Arizona Cardinals acquiring Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback, Peyton Manning, grow fade, the quarterback issue seems to be heading in the right way now.
A day earlier, the franchise’s general manager, Rod Graves, http://www.senore.com/Arizona-Cardinals-general-manager,-Rod-Graves,-hints-at-Kevin-Kolbs-safe-future-with-the-franchise-a130002starting with Kevin Kolb in the next season.
Kolb himself had said that he was not bothered by the unconfirmed reports of Cardinals showing interest in Manning. He had also

The latest development in this series has rubbished all the doubts that Cardinals would trade for or hire any new quarterback for the next season.
The recently promoted offensive coordinator, Mike Miller, who was previously serving as the passing game coordinator, has said that it is time for the franchise to utilise all the available options.
Cardinals have got Kevin Kolb, John Skelton and Richard Bartel to serve at the quarterback position.
All the three quarterbacks took the field in the National Football League (NFL) season 2011-12, but Kolb and Skelton grabbed the major share.
Skelton might also not have been given a considerable amount of time to spend on the field but for Kolb’s injury, which forced him out of almost half of the season.
The Cards were not very good on the field and the quarterbacks could not control throwing interceptions.
The team did not reach the playoffs and ended the regular season with eight victories and eight defeats.
Miller is hopeful that this record will be better in the next season. He thinks that all the quarterbacks should spend time together.
He said:
“We can get back into all the details about how we want to execute and establish the expectations. It’s just that time for these guys to be together and play together, it’s so important.”
Miller also said that the team is on the right track and that the players are also aware of the team’s situation and its desperation for victory.
He said:
“We believe we are on the right track. All three (quarterbacks, with Rich Bartel) approach it with the urgency we think you need to. … With the quarterbacks I really believe the sky is the limit.”
With Manning becoming an old story for the Cards, it is time for the three quarterbacks to prove themselves.
