After a three-year tenure that ended with a 3-14 finish in 2025 and a 15-36 overall record, the Cardinals have parted ways with Jonathan Gannon and will soon usher in a different era with the hiring of a new head coach. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and former NFL linebacker Lorenzo Alexander break down what went wrong in 2025, how injuries and inconsistency derailed a season that began with promise, and why ownership and GM Monti Ossenfort decided it was time to pivot. They also look ahead to the next head coach inheriting a roster with upside in 2026, including young players who gained valuable experience in 2025 and standout talents like tight end Trey McBride and wide receiver Michael Wilson, who enjoyed a breakout season.

With the 2025 season nearing its end, the Cardinals fell to the Bengals 37-14 in another lopsided loss. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and former Cardinals linebacker Rob Fredrickson break down what went wrong. Despite the team struggles, tight end Trey McBride shined while setting the new NFL single-season receptions record for a tight end. McBride finished the game with 10 catches for 76 yards and a touchdown. He also broke the Cardinals’ franchise record for receptions in a season. One game remains against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Sunday. Can the Cardinals snap their eight-game losing streak and enter the offseason on a high note?
