Live from Green Bay! Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are boots on the ground in Packer-land for the Cardinals' joint practice, and loop in Craig Grialou with all of the details. Our trio talk about bike rides, a ban on cussing, a Melton opening of the practice, an emotional practice for the Cardinals (and yes, perhaps a “win,”), updates on Carson Beck, Isaiah Adams and James Conner, Josh Sweat's return, a solemn Getting Cultured, what's left for the team in their preseason finale, and an offense that again impresses, even if it's just practice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The gang has come back to Tempe (for now) as training camp continues, although next week's joint practice with the Packers in Green Bay means the pod will be on the road soon enough. Nevertheless, we will be where our feet are, and Craig Grialou, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck will talk about Mike LaFleur dealing with the heat, the logistics of more joint practices in the future, Jeremiyah Love's ankle and those 14 preseason snaps, Darren's “lost” driver's license, the reverse s***show of an offense, some culture from Dani, MHJ's smiles, everyone's confidence, losing Chase Bisontis, and Dani's struggle with her last word.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 1028 - OK, it's early, and it doesn't count. But this offense has been fun to watch, and maybe more importantly, the players are having fun. So, what does it mean moving forward? How much of what's been seen during the preseason will translate to the regular season? Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck discuss the Mike LaFleur-led offense from the quarterback play to the wide receiver play through the first two preseason games, go over the latest injury news regarding Jeremiyah Love, Carson Beck and Chase Bisontis plus debate how much, if at all, the starters will play this week against the Dallas Cowboys in what is the Cardinals' only home game of the preseason.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 1023 - It's eight days into training camp. There's less than a week before the Cardinals' preseason opener. Yet, there's six weeks before the Cardinals play their first game of the regular season. In other words, there's time. Time to determine roles. That was the message conveyed by rookie running back Jeremiyah Love on Friday. In his mind, he's proven nothing yet despite the high expectations that come with being the third overall pick. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck discuss what Love had to say in addition to the comments made by Tyler Allgeier the day before. And while nothing has been determined publicly about how Love and Allgeier will be used this season, that doesn't stop Craig and Dani from speculating. Plus, the two give their top takeaways from what was another padded practice earlier in the day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It was a tough morning for Darren Urban before recording the pod this week; changing flat tires stinks. But of course Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck provided the proper sympathy, before our trio get into the football at hand: Jacoby Brissett's new contract and all that encompasses the narratives around the likely QB1, Jeremiyah Love's rookie status and how that somehow got sideways for no good reason, Carson Beck's slow roll, an always entertaining Getting Cultured session with Dani, mailbag question of the week, and a call for fans to send in their best Fitz memories (to askdarren@cardinals.nfl.net) for next week's episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 1018 - Day 2 of Cardinals training camp and the first day open to fans; that always brings a little more excitement. The headline, of course, is quarterback. Yes, Jacoby Brissett is practicing, but how much is he participating? And when Brissett is not under center, who is and with which unit? Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck talk about what they saw from the quarterbacks as well as the rotation at running back. Also, Craig and Dani highlight some of the top plays made by players such as Trey McBride, Michael Wilson and Max Melton, who really flashed on Friday. There's also discussion on how well BJ Ojulari has looked, why Josh Sweat is starting camp on the physically unable to perform list (PUP) and Mike LaFleur's philosophy on fighting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With training camp just a couple of weeks away, Craig Grialou, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck figure it is a great time to break out some predictions for the upcoming season. Are they Nostradamuses? Is that even a word? Ah, regardless, whether they are bringing up Walter Nolen III, Trey McBride, BJ Ojulari or even Fitz, these are the things to bank for now and break out the shame sticks when and if they are wrong.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 1015 - No position has generated more discussion this offseason than quarterback, and few players have been at the center of it more than the Cardinals third-round pick, Carson Beck. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck discuss both Beck the person, whose confidence and humility have stood out in their early interactions with the former Georgia and Miami quarterback, and Beck the player, whose 55-game college career suggests he won't be fazed by the NFL stage. Then, hear from Beck himself as he joins Paul Calvisi to talk about his football journey, college career, and expectations heading into his rookie season in Arizona.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's nothing like a riveting game of What If, as Darren Urban pitches five scenarios to Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck and our trio chew on those possibilities and all the different things they could ultimately mean for the Cardinals.

As the Cardinals reach the dead of the summer, Craig Grialou, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck each take a shot at picking what position unit will be the most crucial for the team this season – not counting quarterback, which remains No. 1 for every team every year. What positions did they choose? The hint: one on offense, two on defense. Let the debates begin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

OK, so Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck probably don't want to be an assistant to Darren Urban. That's OK. At some point, Darren needs to be more efficient with his time - on or off the clock. In the meantime, our trio delve into the Cardinals minicamp and the last practice being canceled (and what it means, and does not mean), they chew on Darren's top takeaways from the offseason work, thinking about Carson Beck's mindset, the idea of defensive changes in 2026, Getting Cultured with Dani, and a mailbag question about the health/outlook of Garrett Williams.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Minicamp is here, and so are all the players, and Craig Grialou, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have lots to talk about. That includes the arrivals of Jacoby Brissett and Josh Sweat to mandatory work, Brissett's situation heading into training camp, our first mailbag entry on the podcast, needing a full running back room, Trey McBride's continuing evolution, Getting Cultured with Dani, Nick Rallis' obsession with player development, Michael Wilson's burgeoning friendship with Larry Fitzgerald, and Craig's airport issues.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dani Sureck has returned much to her chagrin, but Craig Grialou and Darren Urban welcome her back anyway, as they chat about what they would be willing to spend for a ticket to a big sporting event, how to interpret OTA workouts, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s big third year coming up, expectations on any player in his rookie year (like Carson Beck), how people use “bust” too easily, Myles Garrett's arrival in the NFC West, the most surprising Cardinals acquisitions over the years, Gardner Minshew's role, and the law office of Budda, Dewey and Rabbit.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
As the rookies mesh with the veterans, the chant comes up, Craig Grialou Graduates! Or something like that. In the meantime, Craig talks with Darren Urban and Dani Sureck about Carson Beck's reps and gravitas, no more 2027 QB talk, analyzing rookie minicamp, Larry Fitzgerald visits the first-year players, the scramble-ability of the QB room, Jeremiyah Love's financial sense and NIL impacting players as they come into the league, Chase Bisontis as potential starter and how the Cards could prep him in practice, and a look at the upcoming schedule release.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
As our trio say goodbye (again) to Calais Campbell, Craig Grialou, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck dive back into the rookie class as they arrive for their first minicamp. What we see this first weekend might not really have any lasting impact, but with Carson Beck on the field for the first time, the question is about the upcoming quarterback competition and how that could play out. The three also address a couple other QB names floating out there (insert “incorrect” buzzer here), get cultured with Dani, talk about BJ Ojulari's big year and the edge rusher situation, JG takes the mic in Green Bay, Mother's Day plans, and Darren's need to drink LOTS of water.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 1005 - If there's one thing A.Q. Shipley knows, it's football. A former player turned analyst, he joined Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck on Monday to discuss the 2026 NFL Draft. Shipley shared insights from covering the draft in Pittsburgh for The Pat McAfee Show and broke down the Cardinals' seven selections over three days. Entering his second season as the team's color analyst, Shipley is high on running back Jeremiyah Love and offensive lineman Chase Bisontis. He also expressed excitement about quarterback Carson Beck's pro potential after witnessing his Offensive MVP performance in the Fiesta Bowl. Shipley wrapped up by offering advice to the rookie class as they prepare for minicamp later this week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We open this week with Darren Urban's apology about his outlook on Jeremiyah Love at 3, but now that Love is in the Arizona air, Darren joins Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck to discuss Love's potential role in the offense, why it made sense to take him at 3, what the Cardinals might do with QB Carson Beck in Beck's rookie season (and what it might/could mean in the 2027 draft), Dani's own editor's note on Getting Cultured, the idea of Chase Bisontis as starter, what could happen at right tackle, the idea of Calais Campbell returning and the defensive line depth chart, and the amazing marathon men in London.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 1002 - Stick-and-pick. That's how the Arizona Cardinals handled Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. So, for the first time as general manager, Monti Ossenfort did not play let's make a deal. Rather, he made four selections: Southeastern Louisiana defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor (4th round), Texas Tech wide receiver Reggie Virgil (5th round), Iowa linebacker Karson Sharar (6th round), and Ole Miss offensive lineman Jayden Williams (7th round). Craig Grialou, Dani Sureck and Zach Gershman - once again the show goes Cover 3 - discuss each of the four players individually before turning their attention to the entire seven-player draft class; five offensive players and two defensive players, quite the switch from a year ago.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 1001 - An early theme is developing through the first two days of the 2026 NFL Draft: the Arizona Cardinals like offense. After selecting running back Jeremiyah Love in the first round, the Cardinals drafted offensive lineman Chase Bisontis in the second round and quarterback Carson Beck in the third round. The Beck addition is where the discussion begins between Craig Grialou, Dani Sureck and Zach Gershman - that's right, the show goes Cover 3 to close out Day 2. Craig, Dani and Zach talk about the player first and then the fit within the quarterback room before addressing Bisontis and what his addition means for the offensive line as well as the offense overall. And at the end of the show, cake is served! (Thanks, Dani!)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 999 - A shock to some, a surprise to many. The Arizona Cardinals made Jeremiyah Love, the running back out of Notre Dame, the third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. His talent is undeniable, and in the end, it was that talent - as well as who he is as a person - that made the selection a no-brainer. Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck react to the pick, and then discuss what they heard from Love, GM Monti Ossenfort and head coach Mike LaFleur. Plus, Zach Gershman joins the show from Pittsburgh; he was boots on the ground. Craig and Dani get Zach's thoughts, and more importantly, his perspective on what he saw and what he heard from Love and the Bird Gang in attendance at the draft.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Just days before the 2026 NFL Draft, Craig Grialou, Dani Sureck and former NFL linebacker Lorenzo Alexander discuss the Cardinals' options with the No. 3 pick, weighing “best player available” against team needs amid heavy speculation. They question taking a running back like Jeremiyah Love that high, debate the pros and cons of drafting quarterback Ty Simpson early, and emphasize building through the offensive and defensive lines.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Paul Calvisi has some breaking speculation about the draft, and why not? Trade back in the draft? Stick at 3? These are the heavy questions Paul poses to Darren Urban and Dani Sureck on this week's podcast. Also under conversation: the Aaron Curry effect in the top 5, Sonny Styles as an early pick, the idea of Arvell Reese as inside or outside, Bain early, the future of Calais Campbell, defense in the first, Getting Cultured with Dani, ultra-runners and how they are mock drafty, a QB in the later rounds, and Paul and Darren reminisce about Coach Mac.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 995 - Currently, the Arizona Cardinals are scheduled to make the third overall selection in next week's draft. Do they stick and pick? And if so, then who are the most likely targeted prospects? Do they trade down? And if so, then how far down might be too far? All great questions. And all questions Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck attempted to answer with the help of Trevor Sikkema, co-host of the NFL Stock Exchange. Sikkema rejoins the show, adding his thoughts on whether an offensive lineman or edge rusher should be the choice of GM Monti Ossenfort; what offers a higher return on investment, is there a pass-rusher who stands out among the others, and how might the non-premium position players affect the top of the draft.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Don't miss your class picture and don't take a punter in the first round - unless he's a Hall of Famer. These are the questions Paul Calvisi are considering, as he brings in Darren Urban and Dani Sureck - voluntarily - on the first day of Cardinals offseason workouts. Our trio discuss the players being back in the building, Zaven Collins and Hjalte Froholdt's analysis of first-day Mike LaFleur, upcoming tax day, the considerations of what to do at 3, what the Cardinals might think about if they traded down, Sonny Styles, Ruben Bain Jr., a new Getting Cultured, Fernando Mendoza's skipping of the draft festivities, and a (heated) debate between Paul and Darren about the value of post-Round 2 QBs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 992 - Happy April Fool's Day, Bird Gang. That said, neither Craig Grialou nor Dani Sureck are playing the fool on Wednesday's show. Instead, Craig and Dani continue to react to what Mike LaFleur had to say during his Q&A with reporters at the Annual League Meeting this week; LaFleur likes the experience both Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew bring to the quarterback room, believes Teryl Austin will be “a great asset” for him, Nick Rallis, and the defense overall plus LaFleur is looking forward to having players back in the building next week. Also, Craig and Dani update Paris Johnson Jr.'s rehab, another round of uniform number changes, and because it is April 1st, begin to promote the 2026 Draft Party at State Farm Stadium.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Paul Calvisi debates himself over onside kicks or tech neck, but eventually he gets to Darren Urban and Dani Sureck to talk NFL and the Cardinals with the annual meeting held in Arizona. Our trio chats about rules changes and potential replacement refs, Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur's view of his QB situation now that Kyler Murray has moved on, Jacoby Brissett's outlook, an incoming joint practice in Wisconsin, a foodie's Getting Cultured, the Ty Simpson discussion (and some Jeremiyah Love), the NFC West update desk, and some flag football with Larry Fitzgerald Jr.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It's been a tough few days for Paul Calvisi and a moment of pause this weekend for Darren Urban, but they rallied to join Dani Sureck to get into what the Cardinals' free-agent additions mean for the draft, if Jack Gibbens reflects on Sonny Styles, the idea of trying to trade back, a quick look at the free agents from the last week, Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew and the QB situation, a return of Getting Cultured, Kyler's spot in Minnesota, the NFC West upgrades, why “pending physical” matters, and Paul's love for Cheeto.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
