The Arizona Cardinals coaching search could stretch through the Super Bowl.
In a recent report, coming out late last night, the team has scheduled another interview with Klint Kubiak, the Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator.
So, the Cardinals have been waiting and taking their time trying to get another shot at Kubiak, but so are the Las Vegas Raiders.

Both teams will have to do a quick sales job, before Kubiak returns his focus to the Seahawks in their quest for another Super Bowl.
The question becomes, what do the Cardinals have to offer over the Raiders?
If Kubiak was to turn towards the Cardinals, I think the biggest thing it would signal, at least to the Raiders, is a lack of belief in likely first overall pick Fernando Mendoza. While there is a debate on the rest of the roster, their is an unquestioned reality that having Mendoza if you believe he can be a franchise guy, is better than the Cardinals options at quarterback, thus negating basically all other roster construction questions.
If Kubiak decides to go back to Seattle to wait until the next coaching cycle, then it would say a lot about both moribund franchises.

The problem seems to be, that all the “insiders” continue to say it isn’t likely Kubiak would come to Arizona, so are the Cardinals wasting their time?
Is pursuing Kubiak the right move? What do you think?
