Ep. 845 - And with the 16th overall pick, the Arizona Cardinals select (fill in the blank). Well, we’ll know soon enough. Officially, in three months. Unofficially, let the speculation begin.

Cardinals Cover 2 - The Value Of The Ball

Jan 22 2025 41 mins

Ep. 844 - It’s something Jonathan Gannon says all the time. And based on what we saw during the divisional round of the playoffs, the head coach is right. The ball matters.

Ep. 843 - Let’s start with the most important question: How is everyone’s German? That’s right. German. There is a chance, based on an announcement from the league earlier on Wednesday, that the Cardinals play a regular season game in Berlin. Again, a chance.

Jan 08 2025 33 mins

Ep. 841 - It’s been three days since the regular season ended. So, yeah, the offseason has arrived. And after a brief conversation about Dani Sureck’s cryptic post on social media Wednesday afternoon (really, a tease to some exciting new content), she and Craig Grialou discuss, what else, their biggest takeaways from 2024. More specifically, however, what did they learn from 20

Cardinals Cover 2 - Season Finishes With A Win

Jan 06 2025 45 mins

Ep. 840 - Beat a division foe. Sweep the season series. Send the fans home happy. That’s what the Cardinals accomplished in Week 18. And no, the goal of making the playoffs was not reached, but a 47-24 win over the San Francisco 49ers is a decent consolation prize. Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi discuss what happened on Sunday; from Kyler Murray’s four touchdown passes, the imp

Jan 01 2025 38 mins

Ep. 838 - On this first day of 2025, the focus remains on 2024, at least in terms of the football season. Yes, the calendar has flipped to the *new* year, but there remains one more game to be played before the *new* season can be discussed. With that said, however, Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck talk about what they’d like to see in the regular-season finale that may carryover to

Cardinals Cover 2 - Hollywood Ending Eludes Trey McBride, Arizona Cardinals

Dec 30 2024 40 mins

Ep. 837 - Heart-breaking. There’s no other way to describe it. The win was there until it wasn’t. And that’s been the story of the Arizona Cardinals’ season more times than not in 2024. Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi, aka Paulie Play-By-Play, look back at the 13-9 loss on Saturday night in Los Angeles. For much of the game, the offense looked good; in fact, the numbers said
