Locked On Cardinals - Daily Podcast On The Arizona Cardinals

Arizona Cardinals have shown throughout the 2024 NFL season that they can win in myriad ways. One game it's James Conner and the rushing attack dominating and another it's Kyler Murray, Trey McBride, and Marvin Harrison Jr dominating through the pass game. On Sunday in Seattle, though, the rush attack must instill their dominance against a Seattle Seahawks rush defense that has been below average this season. With the emergence of Trey Benson as a viable threat in the backfield alongside the Pro Bowler James Conner, a recipe of run all over the Seahawks could be on full display in Week 12. 

The Arizona Cardinals must get after Geno Smith with some sort of pass rush, whether it be from their traditional pass rushers or something more exotic like from Kyzir White, Mack Wilson, Budda Baker, Garrett Williams, and/or Max Melton. If they're able to get after Geno Smith and get home a couple times while pressuring him throughout the game, it'll make his job of getting the ball to wide receivers DK Metcalf, Jaxon Smith-Ngiba, and Tyler Lockett much more difficult. Corbin Smith of Locked On Seahawks joins the show for a Crossover Thursday. Let's discuss.

Arizona Cardinals are looking for a statement win in Seattle to move to 7-4 on the season and extend their lead atop the NFC West. While the offense has been playing elite football during their winning streak, the defense has been playing out of their shoes as well. With the offense playing so well, we could see the emergence of an overdrive on the defensive side of the ball. More opportunistic football, more chances taken, etc knowing the offense can carry the weight if the defense gets burned by a big play. Budda Baker, Garrett Williams, Kyzir White, and Mack Wilson have led the charge on defense and, with their collective playing style, there's definitely a world where there's another drive they can put it in. 

Is Kyler Murray a true MVP candidate for 2024? Not so sure. Does it matter? Absolutely not. Kyler Murray's numbers haven't been stellar compared to some other quarterbacks like Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, and Josh Allen. The Arizona Cardinals offense doesn't need him to account for 3+ touchdowns per game to be effective. The offense just needs Murray to be an elite game manager who is special when the team needs him to be. That's something he's done perfectly for the majority of the 2024 season. Plus, the Arizona Cardinals are continuing to follow in the footsteps of the Detroit Lions in their organizational rebuild. Which proof has been shown so far? Let's discuss.

Arizona Cardinals have a favorable schedule for the rest of the 2024 season. That doesn't mean that they can let off the gas pedal. The heartbeat of their offense has and will continue to be the rushing attack led by James Conner. The management of Conner for the rest of the season, though, is probably the most important focal point pertaining to the offense. Maintaining his health while yielding the same production on the field will be a juggling act by Jonathan Gannon and Drew Petzing. The production and usage of rookie Trey Benson and second year RB Emari Demercado will be fascinating as pertaining to not only giving James Conner a break mid-game, but also the production that comes along with it. Do the Arizona Cardinals have backup running backs who can produce 80% of what Conner does in an effort to maintain their powerhouse rush attack?

Also, what will Marvin Harrison Jr's role be for the rest of the season? Exactly what it's been up until this point: a cog in a machine that is the Arizona Cardinals offense. He wasn't drafted to save the offense. He was drafted to be a part of it while elevating it in the process. And, unfortunately but understandably, season tickets are going up for Arizona Cardinals fans. Is it the right time to do it? Is it warranted? Let's discuss.

Arizona Cardinals are coming out of their Week 11 bye week with a full game lead atop the NFC West at 6-4. The remaining teams all sit at 5-5 and, in a surprising for three months of the NFL season, the Arizona Cardinals control their own playoff destiny. The Arizona Cardinals offense has thrived of late led by Kyler Murray, James Conner, Trey McBride, Marvin Harrison Jr, and the elite play of the offensive line. The defense has been no slouch either, led by veterans Budda Baker, Kyzir White, and Mack Wilson, while the younger players Garrett Williams, Max Melton, and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson have held their own as well. With the Cardinals current situation, there have been some adjusted expectations for the remainder of the season. Also, there is one main thing to avoid, and another to double down on for the rest of the 2024 NFL season. What are they? Let's discuss.

Arizona Cardinals Budda Baker has been playing the best football of his career in 2024, and he has Monti Ossenfort and Jonathan Gannon to thank. While everyone has known the elite talent that is Budda Baker, the ability to unlock his full potential is something he's had to put on the backburner while covering for massive deficiencies on the defensive side of the ball. Ossenfort has provided talent, and Gannon has provided leadership and coaching to allow Baker to flourish and lead this Arizona Cardinals defense. He must get an extension before 2025 free agency begins.

With the Cardinals on bye, there are three Week 11 games to watch that directly impact the Arizona Cardinals: Seattle Seahawks at San Francisco 49ers, Atlanta Falcons at Denver Broncos, and Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears. Also, there are rumblings that the Arizona Cardinals at Minnesota Vikings game could be in consideration to be flexed to Monday Night Football in Week 13. Would that be a good thing? Let's discuss.

Arizona Cardinals have had a complete overhaul since Monti Ossenfort took over as General Manager at the end of the 2022 season. With two free agencies totaling zero "splash" signings and two drafts of near perfection, Ossenfort has completely shifted the trajectory of the organization. With a list of draft picks consisting of Paris Johnson Jr, BJ Ojulari, Garrett Williams, Michael Wilson, Dante Stills, Marvin Harrison Jr, Darius Robinson, Max Melton, Trey Benson, Tip Reiman, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, and Xavier Thomas, the Kyler Murray-led Arizona Cardinals are positioned for a run in 2024, while some expected 2025 to be the target year for the Cardinals to thrust back into relevancy. How has Monti Ossenfort done it? How sustainable is it? Let's discuss.

Arizona Cardinals have gone through a massive transition over the last 18 months, away from dysfunction and towards cohesion, positive culture, and winning ways. Former Arizona Cardinals offensive lineman Justin Pugh joins the show to give his thoughts on Kyler Murray's maturity, the Jonathan Gannon and Nick Rallis led Cardinals defense, and the Cardinals offensive line that is playing stronger than ever.

Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals dominated Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets 31-6 to move to 6-4 on the season and stay atop the NFC West through Week 10. Kyler Murray was electric accounting for over 280 all-purpose yards and 3 touchdowns as he begins to solidify himself as a top 10 quarterback in the NFL. The Jets defense was allowing just 150 yards passing per game this season, and Murray blew right past that while finding Marvin Harrison Jr for his 6th touchdown of the season and solidifying Trey McBride as a top 5 tight end in the league. 

Arizona Cardinals defense played out of their minds as well, holding Aaron Rodgers to 151 passing yards and held Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams to 11 receptions for 71 yards combined. Budda Baker, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, Garrett Williams, and Max Melton are starting to form into one of the better secondaries in the NFL well ahead of schedule. Rookie Xavier Thomas grabbed his third sack of the season and forcing a fumble late in the game. Bottom line is this Arizona Cardinals team is playing their best football of the year on this four game winning streak ahead of their much deserved bye week in Week 11. Let's discuss.
