Ep. 756 - The future is coming into focus for the Arizona Cardinals, both on and off the field. Paul Calvisi and Ron Wolfley discuss the groundbreaking of the team’s new performance center in Phoenix and what it signals about the franchise’s long-term vision. They also dive into head coach Mike LaFleur’s coordinator hires, exploring what Nathaniel Hackett’s addition could mean for the offense and how continuity with Nick Rallis on defense might become an advantage for a first-year head coach. Plus, they examine how Michael Ghobrial’s coaching style could shape special teams. New facilities, fresh direction and high expectations. We dig into what it all means.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 978 - Two new coordinators and one familiar face were officially introduced Wednesday, as head coach Mike LaFleur presented his staff: Nathaniel Hackett (offensive coordinator), Nick Rallis (defensive coordinator), and Michael Ghobrial (special teams coordinator). Hackett and Ghobrial are new to the Cardinals, while Rallis will be entering his fourth season in charge of the defense. All three sounded enthusiastic. All three are eager to get to work. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss what they heard from each of the coordinators: Hackett is ready to serve as a sounding board for LaFleur, Rallis is grateful to be able to run it back after some self reflection, and Ghobrial believes “special teams is the purest form of football.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck know draft season is coming, so our trio chat about what the world seems to think the Cardinals will do at 3 overall (at least right now), the upcoming Scouting Combine information incoming, Kyler Murray’s future and NFL teams dealing with cap ramifications after player moves, a new Getting Cultured, the return of Nick Rallis as DC, Nathaniel Hackett as OC, how the roster can change, the emphasis on player development, sorting the running back room, Darren and Cardinals Climb, and breaking ground at the new training facility.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and former Cardinals linebacker Lorenzo Alexander break down Mike LaFleur’s first major moves as head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, including the hiring of his coordinators and the continued construction of his coaching staff. The group discusses what those decisions reveal about LaFleur’s overall vision and what he prioritizes on both sides of the line of scrimmage, which players are poised to benefit most from his offensive system, and why linebacker Mack Wilson Sr. could be a critical piece to the defense’s success in 2026.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 755 - Larry Fitzgerald is officially headed to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Ep. 977 - Kyle Shanahan. Sean McVay. Two of the more influential people in the coaching career of Mike LaFleur. How much of what Shanahan does in San Francisco and McVay in Los Angeles be brought to Arizona? Great question. And we’re really not going to get an answer until games begin. But we can take a guess. That’s exactly what Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman did on Wednesday, when they spoke with Jourdan Rodrigue, Senior NFL writer for The Athletic. Rodrigue rejoins the show to discuss Mike as a person, Mike as a coach, and, maybe more importantly, Mike as a playcaller, especially with likes of Trey McBride, Michael Wilson and Marvin Harrison Jr. on his roster.

Dani Sureck has a message for that Norwegian skier, and it isn’t that you shouldn’t bare your soul to the world after winning a bronze medal, but otherwise Dani, Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban will talk a bunch about gold - as in Larry Fitzgerald and a gold jacket. Fitz is going to Canton and Darren talks about his trip to San Francisco to cover the announcement, while our trio chat about Fitz as a mentor, the Hall of Fame voting, the top non-playoff moments Fitz had in his career, a (Getting) Cultured update, more sports figures Paul has had enough of, Super Bowl commercials and Super Bowl defenses like the Seahawks, QB chatter around the NFL, a coordinator search, international games, and reconnecting with Anquan Boldin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 976 - It’s the first full week for Mike LaFleur as the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. And as of Monday, he hadn’t yet hired a staff, at least not officially. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck discuss the reported move of Nathaniel Hackett as offensive coordinator and the different names reportedly linked to the defensive coordinator position. Putting a staff together is job one for LaFleur, who outlined what he’s looking for in a staff, in personnel and in a team in separate 1-on-1 conversations with Craig and Dani late last week; both of which are now available on azcardinals.com and the Cardinals YouTube channel. First though, Craig and Dani give their thoughts on Super Bowl Sunday; no the game wasn’t great, but that Seattle Seahawks defense certainly impressed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 975 - So, it was never a matter of if but when, and the when is 2026, his first year of eligibility. Congratulations to Larry Fitzgerald. Well deserved, and maybe more importantly, well earned.

show sucks
Wasn't there however there are a few forums suggesting Murray was ok, again wasn't there so maybe they are down playing it.
Think there is a lot of fans who are cautiously reserved about 2019 season (after the chosen Rozen fiasco) but hopefully Wolfe is right about the schemes and offensive upgrades.
Good luck Josh Rosen this Sunday beat the Seahawks... it's time to protect our house.....time is now.....
Go Arizona cardinals
