Ep. 969 - The number is 10. Ten reported names the Cardinals have either requested or scheduled an interview with for their vacant head coaching position. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman go over the 10 names - wait, make that 11 names as the name John Harbaugh surfaced mid-show. They detail backgrounds, including previous experience at the head coach level. Is that an important factor? What is important to know is that the search is still in the early stages. Craig and Zach also discuss the players’ reaction to the coaching change, assistant coaches on the move, Trey McBride earning All-Pro status before questioning why his selection wasn’t unanimous, and then the guys dive into Wild Card Weekend; the dominance of the NFC West can be seen as both good and bad news for the Arizona Cardinals.

Ep. 968 - Change is inevitable in the NFL. And the Arizona Cardinals wasted no time in making the first of what his expected to be several changes following a 3-14 season. Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi react to the firing of head coach Jonathan Gannon. The two then discuss what owner Michael Bidwill and GM Monti Ossenfort had to say. The theme of their 23-minute press conference was a pretty simple one: wins and losses matter; and the Cardinals didn’t win enough games in the three seasons under Gannon. So, now what? What’s the next step in the search for a new coach and what might the decision-makers be looking for in a new man in charge. Finally, it is a Monday, and for one last Monday, Paul - with some assistance from Craig - names his Angry Bird Award winner.

Ep. 967 - The number 1,000 carries a lot of significance, especially in the NFL. It’s a number that helps define whether a season was a success or not among skill position players, like wide receivers. On Sunday, Michael Wilson needs 93 receiving yards to hit the 1,000-yard mark for the first time in his career. It would, as he said this week, be a “heck of an achievement” considering how the season started. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman talk about Wilson’s year, his recent run of success and then dive into the matchup against the L.A. Rams; it’s the last opportunity for a lot of players to make one last impression. Plus, for one final time, Craig and Zach head into enemy territory. They speak with Stu Jackson, senior staff writer for therams.com.
