The Arizona Cardinals have the worst coach in the NFL for the 2023 season in Jonathan Gannon, according to one NFL site.
Dallas Robinson wrote:"After leading the Eagles’ defense for the past two years, Jonathan Gannon will take over a Cardinals roster that needs to get younger and deeper. Kyler Murray may not be ready to start the season after tearing his ACL in December, so 2023 might be a bit of a reset in the desert.
Gannon has hired an incredibly young staff, with both coordinators age 35 or younger."Patrick Daugherty wrote:"The 17th game helped, but Jonathan Gannon's 2022 Eagles defense had the third most sacks in NFL history. Then it didn't lay a finger on Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl as it forced only two punts. It's tempting to say something snide like “mixed season,” but it wasn't. Gannon was one of the league's most successful assistants and was pursued as such. He ended up with a gut-job gig, albeit one that allegedly has its franchise signal caller. Gannon has been all smiles and bromance as he begins to confront his Kyler Murray conundrum — and hopeful savior. It seemed Murray needed an older-school coach like Sean Payton to get him to buy into a system, any system. Gannon, at least publicly, is taking the opposite approach, trying to win Murray over with positivity. It's tempting to describe such problems as superficial — isn't the players being good the only thing that matters? — but Gannon's Murray strategy could be the most fateful decision he makes during his time in the desert. If it works, he's a 40-year-old first-time head coach with a cornerstone quarterback. If it fails, Gannon will be coordinating again by 2025."Shamus Clancy wrote:"How can Cardinals fans feel optimistic after watching Gannon's defense get slaughtered in the Super Bowl, only to see their team hire him shortly after? This has one-and-done potential to me."ranked first-year NFL head coaches by their position to succeed and they had Gannon last on the list. Andrew Buller-Russ wrote:"The main reason why the Cardinals appear to be punting on the upcoming season is because they don’t have much of a choice. Franchise QB Kyler Murray tore his ACL late in the year, on December 12, 2022, which likely means he won’t be back to 100% until 12 months from then or Week 14 of this season. While it’s possible Murray returns a month or so earlier, even a return by Week 10 , doesn’t give the Cardinals much hope to have a strong season in Gannon’s first year as head coach. In a way, that’s ok for a defensive specialist like Gannon, who now takes over a Cardinals defense that allowed the second-most points per game a season ago. Now he’ll have time to implement his scheme, identifying the right fits for his style of play before being under pressure to win in a competitive NFC West."
