Cardinals notebook: QB still the question
For the third consecutive offseason, the top priority on either side of the ball will be finding a way to improve the production at quarterback.
That's unlikely to include a personnel change, although the club is expected to express interest if Peyton Manning hit the open market. Most speculation has the Cardinals somewhere on the list of teams that could attract Manning, but...

2011 Arizona Cardinals season in review
The Arizona Cardinals finished the 2011 season with an 8-8 record. That leaves us with a little problem in evaluating them. If things had gone a little better they may have been a 10-11 win team. However after winning in week one this team lost six games in a row. Long losing streaks are the number one culprit in losing seasons. The Cardinals did not have a losing season, but certainly...

Mike Leach's 'Wylie' search for wideouts
IT DOESN’T RANK up there with May 2002, when Mike Price extended scholarship offers to seven players from the same school (Long Beach Poly) in one day. Nor does it approach the five offers Paul Wulff put forth in one-fell-swoop at Lakes High outside Tacoma in February 2009. Still, Mike Leach’s early work on the 2013 recruiting trail does scream out two words: concentrated volume.

MICHAEL LEE LANNING, the author of 17 military history books, says he’s attended two college football games in his life. Wouldn’t call himself a sports fan, and says he’s never met Mike Leach. Lanning took an unlikely path, to say the least, in writing his first sports-themed book, “Double T Double Cross,” the story of Leach’s controversial ouster at Texas Tech and its aftermath.

In depth: Arizona Cardinals
You are what you are in the NFL and the Arizona Cardinals were an 8-8 team in 2011. But the Cardinals, more than most teams, have reason to saying “what if” right about now. Arizona started 1-6, but lost four of those games by four points or less. That dug a hole from which the team could not emerge.
But closing 7-2 on the strength of a mostly strong defensive performance...
