Following a close 27-23 loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Cardinals have now dropped five straight games as they head into a much-needed bye week. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi, and former Cardinals linebacker Rob Fredrickson break down Sunday’s defeat and discuss what went wrong. While the offense moved the ball effectively, it failed to score in the final moments. Tight end Trey McBride stood out with one of the best performances of his career, but once again, the defense couldn’t protect a fourth-quarter lead. The crew also looks ahead to a tough Monday Night Football matchup against the Cowboys in Dallas, a place where Kyler Murray has traditionally played well.

Ep. 938 - Here we are again, Bird Gang. A one-score game. A one-score loss. Though say this for the Arizona Cardinals, they know how to make the end of games exciting. It’s just that they are on the wrong side of these end-of-game scenarios. Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi look back at Sunday’s 27-23 loss to the Green Bay Packers. The offense, with Jacoby Brissett once again leading the charge, played well until the final two possessions; credit a lot of that to Packers linebacker Micah Parsons, who spent way too much time in the Cardinals’ backfield. Meanwhile, the Cardinals defense needed to make one more stop. Jordan Love, Josh Jacobs and Tucker Kraft made big plays down the stretch to help send the Cardinals to their fifth straight loss.

Ep. 937 - OK, so nothing definitive as of Friday regarding QB1 for this week. Kyler Murray practiced on a limited basis with a foot injury, which would appear to keep the door open for Jacoby Brissett to get a second straight start. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss what they think might happen when the Cardinals host the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Also, the guys go over the rest of the injury report, a rather lengthy one at that, going into Week 7. Plus, they head into enemy territory. Rob Demovsky joins the show. He covers the Packers for ESPN. At 2-4 and having lost four in a row, the Cardinals are badly in need of a win, especially with the bye week coming up. A win over the Packers - how ever it may look - would greatly change the narrative around the team.

Ep. 738 - Linebacker Mack Wilson Sr. joined Paul Calvisi to discuss his strong start to the 2025 season at middle linebacker, being named team captain, his favorite hit of the year, and what it will take to snap the Cardinals’ four-game losing streak with a win over the Packers on Sunday at State Farm Stadium. Plus, Calvisi and Ron Wolfley break down Walter Nolen III’s return to practice, Jacoby Brissett’s impressive debut as starting QB, and the challenge of containing Green Bay stars Micah Parsons, Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs.

Ep. 936 - It’s been a little while - OK, a long while - since Walter Nolen III has been on the field. The Cardinals’ first-round draft pick had his practice window opened on Wednesday, allowing him to be on the field with his teammates for the first time since the offseason. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss Nolen’s return, including when he might play. Craig and Zach also touch on Darius Robinson coming back to practice; Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. being limited participants at practice; and Kelvin Beachum’s role now that Travis Vokolek has joined Tip Reiman on injured reserve; plus, the Melton brothers, Max and Bo, get reunited on Sunday and Mack Wilson Sr. is doing something no other player is doing through six games.

The weather is rough, but that just makes Paul Calvisi think about how the Cardinals need their own flurry of football as the Packers come to town. That’d be a nice way to snap a four-game skid by a total of nine points. Paul discusses such things with Darren Urban and Dani Sureck, as well as how an NFL season is more than one season, the Cardinals’ battle to find a way to finish, the power rankings of what would be needed if there was a magic wand fix, the non-MHJ receivers stepping up, Dani culturing the guys, how the defense finds a way to make one crucial stop, when Kyler returns, getting back to normal on The Wise Guy, the power of Big Play Trey, Winning Behavior, and the historical importance of graveyards. Really.

Backup QB Jacoby Brissett, filling in for the injured Kyler Murray, led the offense to 400 total yards, but it wasn’t enough. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi, and Zach Gershman break down the strong offensive showing and examine the defense’s ongoing fourth-quarter struggles. They also preview Sunday’s matchup against the Green Bay Packers at State Farm Stadium.
