As my colleague Jim Koch put it earlier today, Dennis Green wasn’t the most successful coach in Arizona but he sure did leave his trail behind in just three seasons as the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals.
On Friday, green passed away from cardiac arrest at the age of 67. Green may not have won Super Bowls or even had a winning season in the desert but he did know how to find good players.
It can be suggested that without Dennis Green, the Cardinals likely do not even sniff the Super Bowl two years after he left in 2008.
