In this edition of the show, Jess and Seth go through the Cardinals' awful NFLPA team report card and then go react to what owner Michael Bidwill said recently on the radio and what head coach Jonathan Gannon and general manager Monti Ossenfort said at the NFL combine. 

The NFL opened the window to use the franchise or transition tag before free agency. Jess and Seth talk about the reasons why the Cardinals won't use either tag. They also go through each position group on the team and break the the offseason needs they have. 

Jess and Seth talk about the coaching additions and departures on the Cardinals' staff. They delve a little bit into the latest lawsuit against owner Michael Bidwill and then discuss the possibility of the Cardinals targeting quarterback Daniel Jones in free agency next month.

Jess and Seth have another offseason show to discuss the Arizona Cardinals, but there are the playoffs as well. They react to the first round of the playoffs before diving into the defensive side of the ball for the Cardinals and grade each position group. After that, they talk about the NFL coaching carrousel and what is going on around the league with that, and how it affects the Cardinals. 

In their first real offseason show of the year, Jess and Seth give grades to each position group on the offense. Then, with the NFL playoffs beginning, they give their wild card predictions and the best bets for those games. 

Following the Cardinals' 47-24 win over the San Francisco 49ers to close out the season, Jess and Seth react to it and break down both sides of the ball. They also ask the question — was the season a disappointment or a failure?
