Ep. 830 - Hey, it’s just a suggestion. But it is an aspect of the Cardinals offense that, in recent weeks, appears to be missing; at least to both Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck. That’s the main topic of discussion on Wednesday’s show; what if Kyler Murray were to have more rushing attempts, might that help spark the offense? The Cardinals are searching for answers in the midst of a season-long three-game losing streak. Also, Craig and Dani look ahead to this week’s game against the New England Patriots, focusing on rookie quarterback Drake Maye; who’s punting on Sunday, given the injury to Blake Gillikin; and rookie offensive lineman Isaiah Adams is the team’s new starting right guard.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Some tours yield $2 billion (right, Taylor Swift?), some tours just bring Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck back into the studio each week for tremendous podcasting even though they aren’t getting Juan Soto money. The trio discuss the Cardinals’ mode of play against the Seahawks after it was broached by Jonathan Gannon, the need to cut down on recent penalties, the line play since the bye on both sides of the ball, Kyler Murray’s struggles of late, the Patriots turning to Drake Maye, what it would take for the wild card, Budda Baker on a rampage, and Cheers to another edition of The Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The season isn't over. But the road towards the playoffs is now a more difficult one to navigate, as the Arizona Cardinals dropped their third straight game, this time to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks at home by a score of 30-18. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and Rob Fredrickson break down what happened on Sunday. Kyler Murray threw two early picks; the Cardinals defense couldn't stop Zach Charbonnet and the Seattle rushing attack; while Budda Baker continued to play at a Pro Bowl level racking up 18 tackles. Plus, the guys discuss what needs to happen in these last four games for the Cardinals to make the playoffs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 829 - So much was on the line Sunday. And so much was lost. No, the season isn’t over. The playoffs are still very much in the picture. It’s just now the road to get there has become a lot more difficult to travel for the Arizona Cardinals. They no longer control their own destiny. So, what happened? Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi look back at the 30-18 home loss to the Seattle Seahawks; turnovers were an issue; couldn’t stop the run; and it’s never good when your kicker is needed to punt, shout-out Chad Ryland. Another player deserving of some praise, safety Budda Baker. He earned Paul’s weekly Angry Bird Award after a career-high 18 tackles, including eight solo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dave Pasch and Ron Wolfley provide instant reaction to the Cardinals 30-18 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at State Farm Stadium.

Ep. 828 - The stakes could not be any higher. Win, and the Cardinals are back in first place in the NFC West; more importantly, they control their own destiny the rest of the way. Lose, and the road to postseason football becomes a lot more difficult. Plus, it’s the Seahawks, and who doesn’t enjoy beating the Seahawks? Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss the matchup coming up on Sunday at State Farm Stadium; why the Cardinals need to win and what they need to do in order to win (hint: all the things they didn’t do in the first meeting two weeks ago.) Plus, the guys head into enemy territory. For the second time this season, they speak with John Boyle, senior reporter for seahawks-dot-com, to get his thoughts on the rematch.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 693 - Cornerback Starling Thomas V joined Paul Calvisi and Ron Wolfley at Trophy in Chandler to talk about the Cardinals huge NFC West matchup with the Seattle Seahawks coming up on Sunday at State Farm Stadium.

Ep. 122 - El momento de la verdad para los Cardenales ha llegado. Este domingo reciben en casa a los Seahawks en un partido muy importante de la temporada 2024. Luis Hernández y Rolando Cantú nos dicen de que manera el equipo puede regresar a la senda del triunfo y retomar el camino pensando ya en los playoffs. El juego del año!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 827 - Two games. Two winnable games. Yet, the Cardinals were on the short end against both the Seattle Seahawks and Minnesota Vikings. So, what must change to change the outcome this week? Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi offer their thoughts, whether it’s finishing in the red zone or the defense finishing by getting off the field. The one big difference this week: the Cardinals are home; it’s the first time in nearly a full calendar month. Also, the guys spotlight the team’s two first-round draft picks, wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. - were the expectations too high coming into the season? - and defensive lineman Darius Robison, who may be in for a larger role this week after making his season debut in Minnesota.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Locked in for the stretch run? Dani Sureck sure is after going undefeated with her 15-0 week on picks. Now the Cardinals need to get there too with what has turned out to be a crucial game at home against the Seahawks. Win and move back to first place. Lose and see the mountain get incredibly steep. So Dani, Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban talk about what the Cardinals need to do after heartbreak in Minnesota (more TDs!), and discuss the roller-coaster of the end of the game, coming home to avoid the silent count, dominating the Vikings, the heater of Trey McBride, the Seahawks stealing one in New York, dealing with Leonard Williams, Darius Robinson’s impact going forward, brain rot, The Wise Guy battle and did we mention Dani’s perfect week?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Despite a tough loss to the Vikings in Week 13, the Cardinals still control their own destiny heading into their rematch with the Seahawks in Week 14. A win would propel Arizona into first place in the NFC West. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and Kyle Vanden Bosch discuss the lack of offensive touchdowns over the past two games, the inability to finish drives at Minnesota, the defense continuing to exceed expectations and what to expect from the Seahawks after facing them just two week ago. Plus, Vanden Bosch remembers former teammate Kwamie Lassiter on what would have been his 55th birthday on Tuesday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 826 - Six times; more times than any other game this season. Six times the offense reached the red zone, yet only one time did the trip result in a touchdown. That’s not good enough. And that’s why, at least a big reason why, Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck are discussing a loss rather than a win. The two look back at Sunday’s 23-22 loss; the offensive struggles near the goal line, the inability to throw the ball downfield with any consistency, all the penalties at what seemed like all the wrong times. There is also talk of a defense that played well until they didn’t; how did Darius Robinson look in his debut; and what more can be said about the play of Mack Wilson Sr., this week’s winner of the Angry Bird Award.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dave Pasch and Ron Wolfley provide instant reaction to the Cardinals 23-22 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium.
