Ep. 397 - Teams are always looking to improve, and offensive line coach/run game coordinator Sean Kugler made it clear on Thursday that the Cardinals need to improve the production they received at the center position. But how? Craig Grialou and Mike Jurecki offer some suggestions plus discuss the future of the entire right side of the line given that Week 1 starters J.R. Sweezy and Kelvin Beachum are both due to become unrestricted free agents. Also, what did Kugler have to say about his recent promotion?

It's the first time since he started going in 2001 that Darren Urban isn't in Indianapolis for the Scouting combine, so with both he and Kyle Odegard protocoled out of that trip, they join Paul Calvisi on a cornucopia of topics. That includes Andy Isabella's at-home powerlifting; the possibility of playing tag with Haason Reddick; Kenyan Drake and the uncertainty of most free agents right now; the likelihood of one-year contracts in a year of a cap crunch; and Fitz as player, retiree and/or recruiter.

With an expected decrease in the salary cap and the final number still unknown, NFL teams are facing a cloud of uncertainty as they push toward the 2021 league year. Craig Grialou, Mike Jurecki and Bertrand Berry explain what free agency might look like when it kicks off in March. Plus, the guys break down pass rush options, where Kyler Murray can improve and the future of the Cardinals offensive line.

Ep. 396 - The free-agent market is starting to see some new names added to the field and yes, the biggest might be former Houston Texan J.J. Watt. Do the Cardinals have interest? It certainly can't hurt to pick up the phone to find out. He plays a position where the team might have a need. Craig Grialou and Mike Jurecki talk Watt as part of a larger discussion about the defensive line. Also, the topic of penalties is addressed following the recent comments made by owner Michael Bidwill and general manager Steve Keim.

Ep. 495 - Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill spoke on a number of subjects while making an appearance on 98.7 FM, Arizona Sports Station's Newsmakers Week. Paul Calvisi and Ron Wolfley are joined by Kyle Odegard to talk about Bidwill's comments on the 2021 salary cap, expectations for Steve Keim and Kliff Kingsbury, Kyler Murray's development, free agency, the future of Larry Fitzgerald and Patrick Peterson and more.

Ep. 395 - As well as DeAndre Hopkins played last season, just think how much better he might have been if he had consistent help from another receiver to take attract some attention. The question Craig Grialou and Mike Jurecki ask is if that receiver—Christian Kirk, Andy Isabella and KeeSean Johnson—is currently on the roster or might the team look at free agency and the draft to fill what is an important need. Plus, the guys discuss what owner Michael Bidwill had to say about the 2021 salary cap.

No, no breaking news yet, whether it's any free agent interest or Fitz's decision. The guys do talk a bunch about the latter, but Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Kyle Odegard also get into the potential impact of new WR coach Shawn Jefferson on Andy Isabella, Kenyan Drake's desire for fans to come back (and a debate whether it matters on the scoreboard), LeBron in the NFL, Johnny Manziel not in the NFL, what the Cards could do in the draft's first round and even D-Hop's IG recruiting.

Ep. 394 - When discussing the cornerback position, the first thing that needs to be addressed is Patrick Peterson. Will he be re-signed or will he continue his career elsewhere? That question will likely be answered sooner rather than later when the new league year begins. The secondary as a whole, including what to expect next from Budda Baker, is on the minds of Craig Grialou and Mike Jurecki. Also, the guys ask if Kyler Murray was a top-10 quarterback in 2020.

The Cardinals have their share of star players including Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins, Budda Baker and Chandler Jones. But which areas of the team need the most attention during the offseason in order for the Big Red to take the next step? Craig Grialou, Mike Jurecki and Bertrand Berry talk about priorities and roster building. Plus, what will the Cardinals' running back room look like in 2021? Is Chase Edmonds ready to carry the load? The guys take a look at options in the ground game.

Ep. 494 - In the NFL, change is a given. Roster composition can look very different from one season to another. With that in mind, how will the Cardinals' front seven look in 2021? Former Cardinals linebacker Rob Fredrickson joins Paul Calvisi and Ron Wolfley to talk about the future of Vance Joseph's defense, the potential role for 2020 top pick Isaiah Simmons and the pass rush options outside of Chandler Jones. Plus, the crew discusses the offensive side of the ball and how Kyler Murray can be most effective in a balanced attack.

Ep. 393 – Running back Kenyan Drake is scheduled to hit unrestricted free agency when the new league year begins in March. Will Drake return to Arizona to team with Chase Edmonds in the backfield? Or will the Cardinals look to add to the position through free agency or the draft? These are just some of the questions Craig Grialou and an apparently "old" Mike Jurecki address as they begin their annual position-by-position evaluation heading into the 2021 offseason. Also, just how much influence will offensive line coach Sean Kugler have given his added title of run game coordinator?

It's typical to have a lot of takeaways from the Super Bowl (and how they might relate to the Cardinals), so Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Kyle Odegard do that, although the end of the season means free agency – and a decision for both Patrick Peterson and the team about Patrick Peterson. The guys talk about the "dirty rumor" Peterson addresses, the potential of drafting a cornerback, how Peterson's free agency could play out, how the defense could change, as well as revisit Bruce Arians' retirement and tell a couple stories about our friend Pedro Gomez, who passed away suddenly on Super Bowl Sunday.

Will Larry Fitzgerald continue his playing career? That question has become an annual tradition. While we wait for a decision, Craig Grialou, Mike Jurecki and Bertrand Berry discuss the factors Fitz may be considering when planning his future. Plus, we review Super Bowl LV and share memories of ESPN's Pedro Gomez and NFL coaching legend Marty Schottenheimer.

Ep. 392 - Welcome to the offseason. There are no more games to be played, so it's time to focus on 2021. How many of the Cardinals' current free agents are likely to return? Craig Grialou and Mike Jurecki look at the 32 players, 28 who will reach unrestricted status come March 17. Before that discussion, however, the guys give a tip of the cap to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers—including all those former Cardinals coaches and players—for their dominating performance in Super Bowl LV.

Ep. 493 - Former Cardinals safety Antoine Bethea joins Paul Calvisi and Ron Wolfley to talk about the 2020 season, Budda Baker's ascension to top-safety status, Haason Reddick's breakout season and how the Big Red can develop consistency in 2021. Plus, Bethea previews Super Bowl LV and speaks on the factors that Larry Fitzgerald may be considering when mulling retirement.

Ep. 391 - Larry Fitzgerald addressed his future this week and to nobody's surprise, he did not provide an answer. However, we are getting closer to knowing whether or not Fitzgerald will play an 18th season. Craig Grialou and Mike Jurecki discuss why the team needs clarity on Fitz's situation perhaps sooner rather than later. Also, the guys break down Kyler Murray's recent comments and offer a Super Bowl LV preview from a Cardinals perspective.
