Ep. 974 - Yes, it’s Super Bowl week. But here in Arizona, and for Cardinals fans worldwide, it’s Mike LaFleur week. A brand-new era is underway. LaFleur, hired on Sunday, will be officially introduced as head coach at a press conference on Tuesday. So, what do Craig Grialou and Zach Gersham hope to hear from the 38-year-old first-time head coach? (Besides the obvious, of course; coaching staff, quarterback, etc.) Also, Craig and Zach dive further into LaFleur’s background, his biggest influences and what that may or may not mean for Cardinals players already on the roster. The guys then close out the show talking about the Pro Bowl, the Super Bowl, the Waste Management Phoenix Open - a handful of Cardinals are participating in the Pro Am - and Zach’s viral social media post.

Ep. 972 - As of Monday, the Cardinals are one of four teams still with vacancy signs lit for their head coach position. And as of Sunday, more specifically Sunday night, five names reportedly linked to the job became available to be interviewed with three able to be hired at any time, while the other two must wait until after their team’s participation in the Super Bowl. So, what does it all mean? Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck dive into the coaching search, one that appears to be nearing its conclusion as the reported field of candidates has narrowed. Also, Craig and Dani look back at Championship Sunday, look ahead to Super Bowl Sunday, and then, don’t look now, but mock draft season is officially underway.

Ep. 971 - First it was Trey McBride. Now it’s Will Johnson. Both have been honored by the Pro Football Writers of America (PFWA) for their play this past season. Johnson most recently was selected to the All-Rookie Team. That distinction led to a much broader discussion about the Cardinals’ current collection of cornerbacks. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman break down the room, highlighting Johnson and fellow rookie Denzel Burke. Craig and Zach also wonder about the status - the health status - of Garrett Williams, Starling Thomas, and Sean Murphy-Bunting. Plus, the two give their thoughts on Championship Sunday. Of course, that all follows an update on the search for a new head coach.
