Cardinals Underground

Is it time for mock drafts? Probably. Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck know draft season is coming, so our trio chat about what the world seems to think the Cardinals will do at 3 overall (at least right now), the upcoming Scouting Combine information incoming, Kyler Murray’s future and NFL teams dealing with cap ramifications after player moves, a new Getting Cultured, the return of Nick Rallis as DC, Nathaniel Hackett as OC, how the roster can change, the emphasis on player development, sorting the running back room, Darren and Cardinals Climb, and breaking ground at the new training facility.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dani Sureck has a message for that Norwegian skier, and it isn’t that you shouldn’t bare your soul to the world after winning a bronze medal, but otherwise Dani, Paul Calvisi and Darren Urban will talk a bunch about gold - as in Larry Fitzgerald and a gold jacket. Fitz is going to Canton and Darren talks about his trip to San Francisco to cover the announcement, while our trio chat about Fitz as a mentor, the Hall of Fame voting, the top non-playoff moments Fitz had in his career, a (Getting) Cultured update, more sports figures Paul has had enough of, Super Bowl commercials and Super Bowl defenses like the Seahawks, QB chatter around the NFL, a coordinator search, international games, and reconnecting with Anquan Boldin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cardinals have a new head coach, he spoke for the first time, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are all over it. Our trio noticed the authentic Mike LaFleur as he stood at the podium for the first time, his need to work with the players, his self-awareness of the job ahead (but still a heavy confidence), his premonition of become the Cardinals coach a year ago, who his coordinators might be, the running game’s future under LaFleur, and the lingering QB question. They also chat about Fitz’s Hall of Fame chances this week, upcoming international games, and did Paul jinx Lindsey Vonn?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As our fearless trio recorded, the Cardinals still were on the lookout for a head coach, so Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck talk about the reported three candidates getting further interviews (and note, mid-pod, about Anthony Campanile staying with the Jaguars), how important the coordinators will be for the next guy in charge, Dani cultures the boys, we have another Patriots-Seahawks Super Bowl, games in cold weather, what the Cardinals can do in a one-year turnaround, Paul hits some mock draft picks, and a try and fill-in-the-blank podcasting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a rare video-less version of the podcast, Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck - true humans, no AI here - are still saving for the future as well as wondering who the Cardinals will get as their new coach. That’s the big topic as the Cards sort through the multiple names for interviews, as well as the possibility of getting an NFC West assistant, the benefit of previous head coaching experience, a new Getting Cultured, how every postseason game will be outdoors, Drew Petzing’s new gig, Marvin Harrison Jr.’s frustrating season and the big offseason decisions facing the team, and an all-NFC West NFC Championship.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
