Cardinals Underground - Pro Bowl Winning Behavior

Jan 28 2025 62 mins  
Our fearless trio debut a new segment this week with “The Wise Guy” on hiatus, but that’s only part of the discussion for Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck. How much hate watching has been going on – or will be going on – with the Chiefs and/or Eagles? Will the #CramItVertical work of the Cardinals eventually create the same success as Philly? How do our hosts fe

Cardinals Underground - Weather Or Not, Here We Come

Jan 21 2025 48 mins  
It’s chilly here in Tempe - why else would Paul Calvisi wear two jackets? - but if there had been an NFL game here it would have been indoors. That wasn’t true around the NFL, but should it be? Or is snow and sleet what football is about? Paul, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck chat about that, as well as how “advantage” should homefield advantage be, how the Eagles have built a

Cardinals Underground - Book It, Cardinals

Jan 14 2025 61 mins  
Paul Calvisi is a reader. Or at least he claims to be, especially when he wants to teach Darren a thing or two about leadership. Reading is fundamental, right A.J. Brown? With the Wild Card playoff game moving to State Farm Stadium, Paul, Darren and Dani Sureck talk about the NFL’s big shift from L.A., Paul’s volunteerism, seeking defensive lineman at the Senior Bowl, the pros

Cardinals Underground - Showing Some Fight Into The Offseason

Jan 07 2025 59 mins  
It’s not surprising that Paul Calvisi isn’t staying up with the latest celebrity news - although he does come up with a movie analogy for the Cardinals at the end of this week’s podcast. In the meantime, he, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck discuss Trey McHurdle, MHJ’s rookie season, upgrading the passing game, the price of rookie dinners, a Budda Baker I-Team report, the mind

Cardinals Underground - New Year’s Resolutions

Dec 31 2024 54 mins  
As the new year begins and Dani Sureck refuses to give us any karaoke examples on air, Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban are still willing to talk Cardinals, like that last unlucky interception in L.A., Trey McBride’s monster season, the need for better red-zone results, Marvin Harrison Jr.’s good game and continued improvement, whether we see James Conner in the finale, Michael Ca

Cardinals Underground - ’Tis The (End Of The) Season

Dec 23 2024 48 mins  
If your holiday shopping isn’t done, you better get on it. Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck understand slow starts; they break down the Cardinals’ own slow start in a difficult overtime loss in Carolina that ended playoff chances. On a short week, the trio discuss what one moment/stretch in a game would they like back; the injuries that whacked the offense over the la

Cardinals Underground - Remaining In The Hunt

Dec 17 2024 55 mins  
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 Caro

Cardinals Underground - Swiftly Moving Forward

Dec 10 2024 48 mins  
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 lin

Cardinals Underground - A Perfect Time To Lock In

Dec 03 2024 51 mins  
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 aft

Cardinals Underground - Giving Grace In Playoff Chase

Nov 26 2024 52 mins  
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
