    Tyler Vasquez and Adam Armbrecht discuss the Arizona Cardinals latest offseason update. First, they mourn the loss of Sean Payton to the Denver Broncos, but also find themselves asking - was it a blessing in disguise? Despite all the speculation the Cardinals interviewed other candidates well ahead of Sean Payton's visit and seem to be unwilling to spend the dollars and draft capitol to retain his services. Several other candidates however went back to their current teams or to other franchises, which does have the hosts feeling like Arizona is striking out on all fronts. One critical component that seems to be leaving potential hires to the wind is QB Kyler Murray and concerns over his injury and franchise commitment. The silver lining is that the Cardinals will have close to top-ten cap room and may have a path to accomplish a partial rebuild while still holding a hefty financial commitment for their signal caller. Adam also offers up a coaching hire that peaks Tyler's offensive interest in the short and long term.

Sean Payton came to Arizona and also left without a deal in place. Combined with the continued interview requests by the organization, Tyler is faced with accepting the fact that this may not be the "big splash" offseason he hoped for. The guys also touch on Hassan Reddick, who since leaving Arizona has flourished and finds himself playing in a Super Bowl. It was a sobering reminder that even when the Cardinals have drafted well - system, scheme and coaching all matter in evaluating a player and making the correct decision come contract time. The hosts close out discussing some the possible outs for the Cardinals with Kyler Murray, who is expected to miss time well into the 2023-24 season. Could Aaron Rodgers find his way to the desert? If the Cardinals braintrust was willing to send capitol to New Orleans for Payton, why not bring in a first ballot Hall of Fame QB, and re-evaluate trading Deandre Hopkins.

    Tyler and Adam kick off the show with the JJ Watt announcement that he will retire at the end of the season. They reflect on his career, hall of fame resume and what the Cardinals could have done at the trade deadline. From there, it is the Greg Dortch show! The young wideout finally got back into the rotation and Tyler Vasquez wishes he could be excited but instead it only further highlights the disaster that Kliff Kingsbury has been, and what could be a big loss for the Cardinals should Dortch leave in in the offseason. They close out discussing Sean Peyton's return to coaching, if the Cardinals are the most enticing spot and how high the draft capitol could be for Arizona to facilitate a trade.

    Gunner and Tyler are in preparing for the battle of the backups as the Arizona Cardinals take on the Denver Broncos this weekend. Unfortunately, the game takes a back seat to some concerning news around the Cardinals front office. GM Steve Keim will be taking a leave of absence from the team, citing health-related reasons. While both hosts understand the health and well being of the individual is the most important part of this story, they keep their discussion on the football team and what this could mean for the Cardinals in the short and long term. Fresh off the heels of losing Kyler Murray to season ending surgery, this continues to throw the 2022 season into further chaos. Now the question becomes, could it also impact 2023 in significant ways. The Denver Broncos are on tap and while the game itself may not mean anything in the standings, the hosts discuss the need to use these gams to evaluate the young talent on the roster and the impact on draft standings To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
