With the Cardinals back from the bye, the final stretch of four games awaits and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck return too. The trio discuss the ugliness of the NFL’s playoff picture, the Cardinals learning to compete in the current NFC West with two division games left, the ongoing battle to defend the run with the Christian McCaffrey coming to town, the identity of the Cardinals’ offense, a new Paulie nickname for the blossoming tight end, Kyler Murray’s ongoing learning curve, Brock Purdy’s MVP chances, and the anecdote you didn’t know you needed: a 17-year-old Darren drinking lemonade with then-Cardinals QB Neil Lomax in the desert.

Since 2007, the original team podcast has been delivering analysis and anecdotes about the Cardinals every week. Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck use their extensive experience covering the team to offer commentary with some humor and a few zings along the way.

Cardinals Underground - Feeding Trey McPlay

Why would Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman consider the idea of shirtless fans? Who knows. But they join Darren Urban (Dani Sureck is on assignment) to chat about the initial OTAs and top takeaways like the mammoth Andrew Billings and Max Melton’s big third year, 13 personnel and Tip Reiman, Jacoby Brissett and how that situation could play out, cornerbacks galore, Michael Wilson and MHJ and how the stats look for a winning team, Trey McBride’s thirst to win, Mack Wilson’s health as he plays basketball, and the Wemby vs. everyone else conundrum.

As the rookies mesh with the veterans, the chant comes up, Craig Grialou Graduates! Or something like that. In the meantime, Craig talks with Darren Urban and Dani Sureck about Carson Beck’s reps and gravitas, no more 2027 QB talk, analyzing rookie minicamp, Larry Fitzgerald visits the first-year players, the scramble-ability of the QB room, Jeremiyah Love’s financial sense and NIL impacting players as they come into the league, Chase Bisontis as potential starter and how the Cards could prep him in practice, and a look at the upcoming schedule release.

As our trio say goodbye (again) to Calais Campbell, Craig Grialou, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck dive back into the rookie class as they arrive for their first minicamp. What we see this first weekend might not really have any lasting impact, but with Carson Beck on the field for the first time, the question is about the upcoming quarterback competition and how that could play out. The three also address a couple other QB names floating out there (insert “incorrect” buzzer here), get cultured with Dani, talk about BJ Ojulari’s big year and the edge rusher situation, JG takes the mic in Green Bay, Mother’s Day plans, and Darren’s need to drink LOTS of water.
