EDIT: Pete made $7 million before his extension. I have no idea what he makes now. Still, $6million is a pretty good amount, puts Arians in the Top 10.
In Cardinals history, it's the best management-to-coach relationship in decades, perhaps ever. Team President Michael Bidwill recognized it, ripped up the pair's original contracts and signed each to four-year deals, with a team option for a fifth.
On Tuesday, both men thanked Bidwill for rewarding them well before he had to.
"Everybody in the building helped get us a raise," Arians said, "so the first round is on me."
"We stay in our lane," Keim said. "He (Arians) does his job; I do mine. When you don't cross those lines, they don't get blurred. Around the league when you see those lines get blurred, internal dysfunction follows.
"We've always had a philosophy, at least in our building, that you check your ego at the door."
Cardinals General Manger Steve Keim said the new deals he and Arians signed are a clear signal that the Cardinals have the kind of stability of organization needed to win in the NFL.
