Cardinals Underground

As the Cardinals go through their second week of OTAs, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck might have a couple of zingers for each other, but that's to be expected in this highly competitive environment. It's the launching point to discuss the meaning of attendance in voluntary work, a visit by Kenny Dillingham, the foolish idea that J.G. is under pressure, allowing defensive backs to challenge pass catchers in camp, the idea the offense will level up with more motion, a new Out Of Context, what Gannon seeks in guys being in shape; Walter Nolen III's progress, Nick Rallis' options with his new defensive line, how other teams are running Cardinals' schemes, a new Winning Behavior and the “QB mentor,” and Saquon and the Madden Cur… er, cover.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As we hit all the graduation days around the Valley, sure, you'd think Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck will be friends forever. First, they podcast this week to discuss the arrival of OTAs, Sean Murphy-Bunting's absence and how the cornerback situation looks without him, Will Johnson's chances at starting, the underrated and the underappreciated on the Cardinals roster, Dani gets everyone cultured, Darius Robinson's importance (and BJ Ojulari too), the authenticity of upcoming position battles, the meaninglessness of Kyler's rankings, MHJ's needs, zombies in Winning Behavior, and how international games impact all fans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Darren Urban acerbic and caustic? Never. (Or maybe never a doubt.) But that's what Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck deal with as our trio discuss Marvin Harrison's new physique and how that (and other things) can help him improve in his second NFL season, the consequences of a back-loaded schedule, a preseason practice in Denver, if Jonathan Gannon might adjust his preseason playtime philosophy, the Niners paying their guys and Brock Purdy in particular, the NFC West early handicapping, Getting Cultured about schedule release content, flag football in the Olympics, more Winning (and non-winning) behavior, Budda Baker and the Cardinals growing closer, and a touching story about Paul's early days as a gym guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Schedule release is upon us, and while there will be a 5 p.m. Wednesday surprise along with your dates and times, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are here to tackle the big picture topics – like how did the Vikings get two international games and another team (say, the Cardinals) didn't get one? Also in the discussion: potential Thanksgiving games, the greeting card industry, the importance of when you play an opponent, Mack Wilson Sr.'s charity hoops game, a new Getting Cultured, the “perfection” of rookies this time of year, the best camp battles to come (hint, a lot on defense), this week's Winning Behavior, and a highest speed limits around.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's audio-only version of the podcast - the video crew is *busy,* people - Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck lament the incoming 100-degree days. But they also discuss who ended up with the best uniform numbers of the players that just got them, Larry Fitzgerald's first-ballot quest for the Hall of Fame, another edition of Out Of Context, the WR2 talk and why Amari Cooper's name keeps coming up, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s big Year 2, Drew Terrell's underrated analysis of the wideouts, A “Who Will Spread Their Wings” power poll, what rookies get out of their minicamp, Winning Behavior, the NFL draft spots, and Paul's quest to become a meme.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Yes, we are opening with a mention of Valentin Senn, but Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck quickly turn their attention to the Cardinals' draft class and what it all entailed. The discussion included the thought process of the Cardinals during their trade in the fifth round, Denzel Burke and why they were OK with the opportunity cost; collecting all those cornerbacks and what the battle will be like in the secondary; the benefit of getting both Walter Nolen III and Will Johnson, two guys considered first-rounders pre-draft; what Johnson can be; a Belichickian episode of Getting Cultured; the Shedeur saga; Cody Simon's chances to start; Jalen Milroe's winning behavior; and Paul updates the power poll of incompetence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The draft is upon us, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are open for business. Are the Cardinals? We will see if GM Monti Ossenfort is dealing on draft weekend again, but first Paul checks to see if our crew lights the lamp with good points. The trio talk about the power poll of draft needs (and how it impacts the first round), whether a middle linebacker could get into the mix of consideration, the latest episode of Out of Context, potential trading down for the Browns at 2 or the Giants at 3, who would be the one at 16 for each of our hosts, Roy Green's history as a Travis Hunter two-way player, Getting Cultured with Dani about the Boston Marathon, the draft party at State Farm Stadium, and NFL's week in Green Bay.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The splash zone? No, probably just balderdash, but Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have much to discuss as the draft draws near. With Patrick Peterson in town, it gets one to thinking – is a cornerback the first-round choice? Another defensive lineman? A wrecker on the interior offensive line? All possible. Meanwhile, Peterson's return to Arizona generates so many memories, brings in so many names to visit, and underscores the benefit of making up with family. There is a special edition of Wise Guy – including a buzzer-beater(?), as well as Cam Skattebo talk. Calais Campbell domination, the mixologists in front offices, going without a phone, Winning Behavior, and the mock tendencies of both Darren and K1.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don't worry - the stock of Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck is up, even if no other stock is, as our trio dive into yet more (odd) draft speculation, the craziness of draftees being mocked all over the place from 5 to 50, a new Out of Context, Calais Campbell and the DL depth and whether it impacts the draft and/or development, picking wants vs. needs in the Cardinals draft, some of the players who have taken “30” visits to Tempe, Trey McBride's giant new contract, what McBride's role will be/continue to be, to hurdle or not to hurdle, Mike McDaniel's shine for JG and the Cardinals' defense, Winning Behavior and a 25-second anthem note, the possibility of a first-round trade, and Paul lights up a room.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back from the NFL owners meetings - and from the breaking news that came out when he was 35,000 feet in the air on his return - Darren Urban joins Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck to talk about the return of Calais Campbell and what it means for this newly minted defensive line. But that's just the start of topics, which include the veteran leadership the team has collected, the Cardinals' chances in the NFC West, what might happen with the draft (and the D-line), wide receiver or corner early as a pick, a tush push update, your Getting Cultured with Dani, JG and BMI, getting a speed receiver, and Darren's totally ***not*** Winning Behavior.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's list season, or so Paul Calvisi tells us, so he asks Dani Sureck and Darren Urban to list off some things: How many QBs could go in the first round, how that could impact the team's first-round pick, the odds Monti Ossenfort might trade – back, or maybe up – in the first round, what that position might be, and what reasons might the Cardinals need (or not) another receiver. Plus there is an Out of Context segment, Getting Cultured, potential breakout players for the Cards this season, Winning Behavior (or not when it comes to gold-plated toilets) and Paul's cheese fatigue. It was cheese, right Paul?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Paul Calvisi seeks Josh Sweat quote clarity and Dani Sureck returns from a week's hiatus, the two jump in with Darren Urban as the trio get to the additions on the Cardinals' defensive line and the improvements made there, how Josh Sweat and Dalvin Tomlinson might impact the direction of the team's first-round pick, the quest for guards, Mack Wilson Sr.'s role-to-be, how Darius Robinson could find a way to echo Braden Fiske, a Getting Cultured segment, what the Cards would do if they had a high pick, a lack of first-round trades, Winning Behavior and workouts nobody in their right mind would want.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With Dani Sureck off on assignment, Zach Gershman fills in alongside Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban to talk the splash of free agency, especially the reported arrival of Josh Sweat, as well as Mack Wilson Sr.'s spot with the new ILB corps, a new QB2, the massive changes in the NFC West including the Niners' purge, a special Getting Cultured from Zach's perspective, the NFC West current power rankings, what the Cardinals might do at guard as they continue in free agency and the draft, Trey McBride's potential extension, and some important Winning Behavior.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We try not to shed any tears for the semi-retirement of Ron Wolfley, but the trio of Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have fairly good memories about Wolf, as well as the just-completed Scouting combine. Our trio reconvenes in person to chat about the mosh pit coming to the new Nashville stadium, combine buzz about Matthew Stafford staying and Aaron Rodgers moving, players who do or don't work out in Indy, quality over quantity search for the Cardinals on the D-line, Cam Skattebo's draft stock, an impromptu Wise Guy from Paul of all people, a lot of (non-)Winning Behavior, and positions the Cards might seek in free agency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the Scouting combine rolls on, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck hunker down on Indy's radio row while Paul Calvisi anchors the whole thing back home. The trio talk about Monti Ossenfort and Jonathan Gannon speaking publicly, the potential of a Trey McBride extension, Darius Robinson's health (or lack thereof in 2024), lack of phone skills, Kyler Murray and adding to the quarterback room, what Cardinals would they want to see race, what the Rams are doing at QB, more Winning Behavior, and a return of The Wise Guy, special Combine edition.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this jam-packed episode of Cardinals Underground, Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck are joined by the versatile Craig Grialou who sits in for the vacationing Darren Urban. The trio spend time previewing the Scouting combine, mocking the mock drafts, pondering veteran options at backup QB and dissecting the potential shade thrown in the direction of Marvin Harrison Jr. by a Seahawks defender. Plus, conversations about red-bellied blacksnakes, unique punishment for shoplifters in Michigan, parade beers to the forehead, the monumental task of feeding a football team and Paulie's Power Poll of Ineptitude.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the Super Bowl in the rear view, there is change coming right now, even beyond the NFL. But there won't be any penny-pinching from Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck as they read and react about the Super Bowl and some of the Cardinals' connections. The trio chat about all the wagering on the game, the burgeoning TV ratings, Cardinals cornerback Max Melton and his Gucci belts, the price tag for running backs after a crazy good RB year, what the Cardinals can learn from the Super Bowl, that new Fox scorebug, your weekly Winning Behavior, more Getting Cultured with Dani, a peek at what's going on around the NFC West, and salad complaints.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Super Bowl is coming, it's Waste Management Open week in Phoenix, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are in the studio trying to figure out - for discussion purposes only - how some of these prop bets might turn out. The Cardinals have coaching moves reportedly happening (and incoming help have ties to certain players and fellow coaches), while the in-your-face statements of certain high-profile stars makes you wonder what the Cardinals would look like if they find a way to star up the pass rush. The offensive line seems as possible with that first-round pick as the defensive line, there is much to chat about what might be Winning Behavior this week, Luka trade NFL equivalents, and the guys absorb the first day of Getting Cultured with Dani.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our fearless trio debut a new segment this week with “The Wise Guy” on hiatus, but that's only part of the discussion for Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck. How much hate watching has been going on – or will be going on – with the Chiefs and/or Eagles? Will the #CramItVertical work of the Cardinals eventually create the same success as Philly? How do our hosts feel about the Brotherly Shove? There is also acceptance of the value of the ball, BJ Ojulari's recovery, what helping the edge might look like, Pro Bowl fun with Trey and Budda, MHJ's lessons from Dad, and feeling some kind of way about Dry January – including how it can be used for good.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's chilly here in Tempe - why else would Paul Calvisi wear two jackets? - but if there had been an NFL game here it would have been indoors. That wasn't true around the NFL, but should it be? Or is snow and sleet what football is about? Paul, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck chat about that, as well as how “advantage” should homefield advantage be, how the Eagles have built a team that looks like what the Cardinals want to be, the ethics of the QB slide, valuing the ball and how it pays off in the postseason, Chiefs fatigue, Jayden Daniels with Kliff Kingsbury, how Trey Benson reminds Paul of Saquon Barkley, seeking pass rushers in the draft, and what our trio might've collected once upon a time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Paul Calvisi is a reader. Or at least he claims to be, especially when he wants to teach Darren a thing or two about leadership. Reading is fundamental, right A.J. Brown? With the Wild Card playoff game moving to State Farm Stadium, Paul, Darren and Dani Sureck talk about the NFL's big shift from L.A., Paul's volunteerism, seeking defensive lineman at the Senior Bowl, the pros and cons of doughnuts, Budda's All-Pro status, their votes for Cardinals awards, the upcoming rookie jumps, Larry's Legendary Run on video, and Dani's fear of a TikTok ban.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's not surprising that Paul Calvisi isn't staying up with the latest celebrity news - although he does come up with a movie analogy for the Cardinals at the end of this week's podcast. In the meantime, he, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck discuss Trey McHurdle, MHJ's rookie season, upgrading the passing game, the price of rookie dinners, a Budda Baker I-Team report, the mind of Nick Rallis, Kyzir White's future, the Petzing/Kyler paring, and in lieu of The Wise Guy, a special trivia question for Paul.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the new year begins and Dani Sureck refuses to give us any karaoke examples on air, Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban are still willing to talk Cardinals, like that last unlucky interception in L.A., Trey McBride's monster season, the need for better red-zone results, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s good game and continued improvement, whether we see James Conner in the finale, Michael Carter's swag, a reunion against Joshua Dobbs, who the Cardinals will play in 2025, what the NFC West could look like in 2025, and a solid season-ender for The Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If your holiday shopping isn't done, you better get on it. Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck understand slow starts; they break down the Cardinals' own slow start in a difficult overtime loss in Carolina that ended playoff chances. On a short week, the trio discuss what one moment/stretch in a game would they like back; the injuries that whacked the offense over the last week, locking down McBride in Carolina, the continuing learning curve for Marvin Harrison Jr., struggles on defense, looking for a speed wide receiver, the benefits of the Budda signing, the Pop-Tart Bowl and innovative trophies, and a huge moment for Paul on The Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cardinals are still alive in the playoff chase, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck feel that intensity - especially when Paul and Darren debate (is that what you call it?) the team reaching expectations this season. That's the gooey center of this week's holidayish treat, of which topics include the wedding luck of Dave Pasch, a run game that could feast in Carolina, DeeJay Dallas chaos, Kyler seeking TD passes, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s season close-out, Jonah Williams scoring a touchdown, a tough The Wise Guy hit for Paul, driverless cars, and the idea of dressing your car like a reindeer (Dani feels some kind of way.)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.

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.

It's nearly Thanksgiving, although Dani Sureck is foregoing her beloved green bean casserole despite her strong feelings on the subject. We can't always get what we want, like the Cardinals wanting to emerge from Seattle with a win, now having to face a strong Vikings team in frigid Minnesota (yes, we know the game is inside.) Dani joins Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban to discuss the offensive line dealing with Leonard Williams and what the Seahawks might be building before their visit to Arizona next week, Trey McBride's dominance, the importance of James Conner production, Garrett Williams underrated, a long drought in Minnesota, whether there should be weather games, Wise Guy domination, and doggie Ozempic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back from the bye, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are ready to tackle the seven-game streak to a possible playoff berth and won't buffer once while discussing it. This week, the trio talk 18 games and international play, Dani's clarification on other team jerseys, the need to breath deeply so you don't go insane, Paul's predictions for the run game and Budda, the Cardinals being in the NFC West driver's seat, possible Darius Robinson, probable Jonah Williams, Kyler for both comeback and MVP awards, MHJ's improvement, Seattle's defensive backs, waterproofing Paul, and Darren's attempted domination in Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Happy anniversary for all those who celebrate, and for details, you'll have to join Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck for their final words before the bye. Besides remembrances, the trio discuss how the Cardinals are playing their best ball of the season after 10 games, Kyler taking the hit and giving it back, the Conner/Benson physical run duo, young players getting better, adding Baron Browning, an scheduling advantage within the NFC West, Trey McBride's exceptional season, key questions like whether to wear a random jersey at a game, Dani's Raygun obsession, avoiding regret before the end, and Darren's return with a vengeance on Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On trade deadline day and election day, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck talk Cardinals for the day - or at least an hour. With a three-game winning streak, the Cards added an edge through trade as they try to remain in first place as the Jets come to town next. Among the discussion topics: the Baron Browning acquisition, Aaron Rodgers praising Budda, Garrett Williams' versatile emergence, Paul's bout with the hail inside State farm Stadium, Dani's convo with J.J. Watt, Kyler as game manager, Jeff Rodgers bidding for assistant coach of the year, the heartwarming story of Nick Rallis' son, and a dramatic beatdown of Darren by Paul in Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back-to-back final field-goal wins is a heck of a drug, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are feeling the vibe of the Cardinals shifting their season. This week's podcast has discussion about unlocking the passing game, Marvin Harrison Jr. taking his game to a new level (and knowing even Jerry Rice had a learning curve), Trey McBride's excellence, Kyler looking like a great QB throwing the ball and avoiding sacks, the return of Darius Robinson, Budda Baker's case for the future, the Bears dealing with Hail Mary meltdown, Caleb Williams' growth, the trade deadline, Darren getting back to Wise Guy winning, and the best Halloween candy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You'll never catch Paul Calvisi binging a reality show - it's beneath him - but the Cardinals are about season survival this week after a dramatic win over the Chargers. Paul joins Darren Urban and Dani Sureck to discuss Dani's TV thoughts, the Cardinals' difficult schedule thus far, the issues with the passing game, finding Marvin Harrison Jr.'s sweet spot, James Conner as warrior, Tua returning to the Dolphins as the Cardinals go to Miami, State Farm Stadium's benefits in a zombie attack, WWE Superstar Baron Corbin as one-time Cardinal, and Paul's emotional first Wise Guy win.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In an episode where Paul Calvisi breaks out his oven mitt, he and Darren Urban and Dani Sureck try to reset where the Cardinals are heading into a “Monday Night Football” game against the Chargers. So the trio discuss and debate the IR taking more key players from the Cardinals (and the Chargers too, for that matter), the need for the passing game and wide receivers to pop, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s three C's (or four, or five depending when Paul stops counting), a Cam Skattebo nickname, too many raccoons, Jim Harbaugh's return, the ball-control Chargers, and an episode of The Wise Guy in which Darren has some success for once.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thank goodness Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck have finally cooled down from the furnace that was Sunday's game against the 49ers, so they can join Darren Urban to chat about the big win in San Francisco and how the Cardinals shifted their season. The trio discuss the team's resilience, multiple players coming up big in big moments, the defense's stonewall of a second half, Darius Robinson's impending return, the importance of James Conner, the loss of Will Hernandez, weather games, Zay Jones impact, and Paul coming *thisclose* on The Wise Guy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck get philosophical after the Cardinals' loss to the Commanders, acknowledging early that Paul is no Erin Andrews, and that Tom Brady will be in the house for the 49ers game. This week's discussion includes how the adaptations Jonathan Gannon promised might look like on the field, a run defense tested then and now, the potential of a Darius Robinson return, the “week after the Lions” games, missing Trey McBride and needing more MHJ, Brock Purdy surging and of course, this week's Wise Guy, Eye-Andy style.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The NFL is one big reality check, it seems (just look at the record of picks Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have posted through three weeks) and that includes the Cardinals after a physical loss to the Lions. It laid the groundwork for a podcast in which our trio discuss the missing run game (and Kyler running), how physical the game was and what was left in its wake, the Cardinals' pass catchers beyond Marvin Harrison Jr., getting more Trey McBride, the injury to Justin Jones, the Commanders coming to Arizona to practice this week, Kliff Kingsbury's return, Budda Baker's blistering blasting of opponents, and, of course, Paul's attempt to stop the runaway train that is Darren in this week's Wise Guy segment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What in the name of Markus Golden was going on for the Cardinals against the Rams in the home opener? Everything clicked, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have to wonder if it was Kyler Murray's best game in the NFL. (The Raiders win in 2022 has something to say.) So much good went on in the first win of the season, including Marvin Harrison Jr.'s breakout, the quiet excellence of Trey McBride, a defense that did everything right, Dennis Gardeck stepping up, the challenge of the playoff-worthy Lions this week, parallels between the Lions and Cardinals rebuilds, another Darren victory in this week's Wise Guy mini-game show, and taking a salary that matches your birthdate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It was a rough Buffalo ending for the Cardinals, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck try and put it in perspective with the Rams up next and the home opener awaiting. The trio discuss Marvin Harrison Jr.'s debut (and how some questions sound a lot like some about Larry Fitzgerald in the past), Kyler's first game and his legs on display, a good first game for Zaven Collins, the Rams and the specter of Sean McVay, a beat-up L.A. offensive line and what it might mean to the defense, battling an underrated Matthew Stafford, needing more from rookies, and a brand-new game that shows just how wise Darren really can be.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cardinals have reached the first week of the season, and a trip to Buffalo. Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban, and Dani Sureck want to know what the team is going to look like - especially against a new-look Bills team with old-look Josh Allen at QB - that highlights discussion/debate about the team captains, the ‘Suga' Sean O'Malley visit and MMA-worthy Cards, Paul's lack of TV watching, Mack Wilson's role, Niagara Falls and Dani's dive from a plane, Allen's accuracy, Kyler's expectations (as well as MHJ's), Paul's trip to the hardware store, and the pros and cons of Buffalo wings.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban, and Dani Sureck huddled up as soon as the Cardinals put out their first 53-man roster, although Dani did feel some kind of way when she saw Blue in Denver. The Cardinals made their moves and the trio discusses how the team named that Tune for QB2, Paul hitting on his X-squared picks to click, moving on from Michael Carter, seven total receivers including the suspended Zay Jones, what the offense might look like when it counts, the plethora of defensive backs, and how waiver claims could change the roster.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The gang is back from Indianapolis, and oh what stories do they have to tell. Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban brace themselves for Dani Sureck's encounter with the Colts mascot, and then they discuss the Cardinals as a pound puppy, early power rankings, the battle for QB2 between Ridder and Tune, a game of numbers with roster roulette, the tough choices at RB, WR and CB, Wolf's shirt crisis, “I'll make it” at Hinkle Field House, pickle pizza, the arrival of Jeff The Corndog, and the idea of Vegas and not Denver to close the preseason.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the Cardinals in Indiana holding joint practices against the Colts, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck hold a bonus podcast to talk about the trip and where the Cardinals are heading into Week 2 of the preseason. The trio discuss the offense's ups and downs against the Colts, ILB's Owen Pappoe's surge, the potential of edge Xavier Thomas, the need for 2023 draftees to jump, the idea of trades – whether it is OLB or QB – where the cornerback room stands, Marvin Harrison Jr. and where the Cardinals rank in the NFC West pass-catcher power rankings, the defensive line bolstered by L.J. Collier and Darius Robinson, and that Indianapolis pub Dani (and others) love so much.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
