Arizona Cardinals Podcasts

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...

The playoffs are still in the picture. The Arizona Cardinals took care of business at home by beating the New England Patriots 30-17 and kept their postseason hopes alive. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and Kyle Vanden Bosch break down how it all happened on Sunday. James Conner led the way for the offense; Jonah Williams' hustle produced an unconventional touchdown; the defense played well even afte...

Ep. 832 - It was a much-needed win on Sunday. No, it wasn’t perfect. But thanks to the play of James Conner and Trey McBride, the Cardinals “stayed relevant” in the playoff hunt, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon. And let’s not forget the defense. In fact, that’s where Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck begin their discussion when looking back at the 30-17 victory over the New England Patriots. T...

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 thr...

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...

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 Cha...

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; turno...

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.

Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss the matchup coming up on Sunday at Stat...

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 t...

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...

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 e...

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...

Their conversation, though, begi...

Ep. 692 - The 2003 season finale against the Vikings had plenty of significance for the Cardinals. Lose the game, get the top pick in the 2004 NFL Draft. Win the game, drop out of that coveted spot. Paul Calvisi tells the story of how an unknown Cardinals receiver made the biggest play of his life, sent shockwaves through three NFL cities and significantly altered the top of the 2004 Draft. What h...

Ep. 824 - On this, the day before Thanksgiving, it makes sense for Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck to say what they’re thankful for. Family. Close friends. Good health. How about a Cardinals team that’s going to be playing meaningful football in December, and hopefully January. Yes, to all. But, what about Trey McBride? He leads the team in both receptions and receiving yards, but is he appreciated...

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...
