Skip Bayless is continuing to malign Matt LaFleur while singing the praises of other coaches. The sports commentator and totes-flexing dudebro took to his Twitter to sing the praises of the Arizona Cardinals' procurement of Kliff Kingsbury as their new head coach.
Kliff Kingbury is a much better hire than Matt LaFleur. At least Kingsbury has BEEN a head coach, for 6 yrs, and called highly imaginative plays that have consistently produced extremely explosive offenses. Give me that over LaFleur's one year of calling Tennessee's plays last yr

Naturally, Bayless earned himself a dragging — yet again — from fans on Twitter, who were shocked — absolutely flabbergasted — that he had something negative to say about the Green Bay Packers.

Kliff Kingsbury is more known for his work on the field than from on the sidelines, and certainly not every sports commentator is pleased with this decision by the Cardinals to take him on. Kingsbury was hired by the Cardinals after their old head coach, Steve Wilks, was fired after just one season. The teams hopes Kingsbury will be able to develop Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen.
However, Yahoo Sports, in particular, feels that Kingsbury only got the job because of his offensive capabilities, rather than his ability to be a good coach overall.
“What is pro football coming to? The Cardinals believe they’re looking squarely at that question. They also believe Kliff Kingsbury is their answer. Now we get to see if one of the league’s most improbable gambles can justify that confidence.”
Sports outlets, in general, are a lot more germane about Matt LaFleur's future as a head coach — especially since he helped develop Kirk Cousins and Matt Ryan — than they are about Kliff Kingsbury, but it remains to be seen how both men do in their newfound positions.
