The Facts: Following up on a previous item. ... The Cardinals have to make a decision on Kolb's future in the coming days. If they can't work out a new contract, another option now is in place with the addition of Drew Stanton.
Diehards Line:As NFL.com's Albert Breer notes, the new Cardinals regime publicly has said positive things about Kolb, but Kolb is not "big with a strong arm." He can't "make all the throws." Kolb is due a $2 million roster bonus over the weekend and a $9 million salary this season. He's not making that money. Unless Kolb is willing to take a huge pay cut to stay, most observers expect a release in the coming days. And even if Kolb stays, he's going to have to compete for playing time.
