During the Cardinals’ official team uniform reveal on Thursday night, new coach Jonathan Gannon took time to lament about his previous job as defensive coordinator of the Eagles.
Gannon, who spent two seasons in Philadelphia, claimed the Philly media wanted him fired due to his “lack of blitzing.”
"I'm very comfortable talking to the media," said Gannon. "Philly is a very hard media market. We were 9–0 and I did my presser and they say, Coach, we want you fired… I said, ‘We’re the No. 1 defense in the NFL right now, in every statistical category. Why do you want me fired?’ ‘You don't blitz enough.’”
