Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. making plays early on

The relationship between the quarterback and receiver is already starting to develop.

It is the connection we are all salivating over.

Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. are going to be the dynamic duo for the Arizona Cardinals, similar to the one that fans loved with DeAndre Hopkins and Kyler, but this one we are hoping for a long, loving relationship.

Walter looked at the big play yesterday with an expert breakdown of things, make sure to checkout his the in-depth look.

Today was another fun one. As the relationship is starting to develop, and trust in one another continues...

Kyler Murray’s added attention to footwork and Cardinals’ opening up of the passing game?

Kyler Murray’s added attention to footwork and Cardinals’ opening up of the passing game?

Trips left. short motion right, RPO play action, QB waggle left, chunk yard strike to MHJ over the middle

Here is added proof as to how focused Kyler Murray has been in mastering his footwork. Take a good, close, several-times look:

Pre-Snap Intentions:

  • Shotgun formation
  • 11 Personnel
  • Trips Left (Dortch, Wilson, McBride)
  • Single Right (MHJ)
  • Short Motion (Dortch) —- CB does not chase, points to a switch —- looks like zone coverage to trips side and man-to-man on the single side with Max Melton assigned to MHJ
  • Play action (RPO)
  • Intended QB waggle...

We keep going with the 2024 NFL team previews with our second within the division, this time the defending NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers.

Jess talked with Niners Wire Managing Editor Kyle Madson, and this was an interesting one, because the Niners are going into an important year.

This is the final year before they need to pay Brock Purdy, they have had issues with Brandon Aiyuk, and...

Arizona Cardinals have two breakout players for 2024 per Yahoo! Sports

Arizona Cardinals have two breakout players for 2024 per Yahoo! Sports

Two Arizona Cardinals are breakout candidates for the 2024 NFL season.

The Arizona Cardinals were bad in 2023, and that means a lot of national media want to see them actually do something before they get on board.

Well, Nate Tice of Yahoo! Sports is not one of those guys, he is excited about the Arizona Cardinals in 2024, and in his “NFL 2024 breakout candidates” he has two Arizona Cardinals on the list.

From Yahoo! Sports:

Cardinals running slow, medium and fast days of practice

Cardinals running slow, medium and fast days of practice

According to Sean Murphy-Bunting, Cardinals have different speed days to avoid injuries

Yesterday, after the first day of training camp, the Cardinals’ new CB1, Sean Murphy-Bunting indicated that the team’s #1 priority in training camp is to keep all the players healthy for the regular season. Which is why Jonathan Gannon is running a regimen of slow, medium and fast days of practices.

We’re talking days here.

Sean Murphy-Bunting said when asked about Jonathan Gannon’s multi-speed practice philosophy, “Yeah, it’s structured differently, he’s trying to protect the players to make sure everybody is healthy going into our season. I’m not...

Five Arizona Cardinals that open 2024 training camp on the roster bubble

A look at some players who could be on the roster bubble in 2024 for the Arizona Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals are officially in training camp, as they open things up today.

Walter took a look at Josh Weinfuss’ first roster prediction, something we will have as well coming up.

However, I wanted to look at five players who either played quite a few snaps or were top four round draft picks of the Arizona Cardinals that start the 2024 NFL Training Camp cycle on the roster bubble.

Here are my five.

Jon Gaines could be limited to start training camp

Jon Gaines could be limited to start training camp

The second year offensive lineman could miss time once again.

The Arizona Cardinals are mostly healthy heading into their 2024 NFL Training Camp, but one young player continues to deal with an injury.

The Arizona Cardinals have nearly everyone healthy, but second year offensive lineman Jon Gaines looks like he is still dealing with the same injury as last year that cost him his entire rookie season.

This is definitely unfortunate for Gaines as he continues to try to fight for a roster spot, but with injuries lingering for over a year, it seems like his chances of being on...

Josh Weinfuss of ESPN just released his pre-camp 53-man roster prediction for the Arizona Cardinals. Here is the link:

Arizona Cardinals did not sign a pass rusher this offseason and may have avoided headaches because of it

Arizona Cardinals did not sign a pass rusher this offseason and may have avoided headaches because of it

Did the Arizona Cardinals know something?

Did Monti Ossenfort know something?

Many, myself included, pondered if the Arizona Cardinals should go after some of the better veteran pass rusher names available.

They decided not to, and again we wondered why?

Well, as camps convene, maybe the Arizona Cardinals brass knew something we just didn’t because three veteran pass rushers have already been issues.

Now, I want to be clear, I don’t think Shaquil Barrett needs to be in the same breath as the other two, but he was a signing that the Miami Dolphins were hoping would be an impact...

NFL discussing potential for 18-game NFL season

NFL discussing potential for 18-game NFL season

The NFL is having discussions about a potential 18-game season.

The NFL is discussing adding another regular season game, meaning that this will get the regular season to 18 total games.

The current NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement runs through 2030, meaning the league cannot unilaterally make the move, but it can be initiated and negotiated with the NFLPA.

That would likely push the Super Bowl back another week, potentially lining up with President’s Day, from SB Nation.

Something Goodell also highlighted back in April.

“I think we’re good at 17 now,” Goodell said in April. “But, listen, we’re looking at...

Budda Baker comes in 89th on ‘The NFL Top 100’

The Arizona Cardinals captain is once again on “The NFL Top 100”.

The Arizona Cardinals don’t have many stars right now, but they do have one and it is Budda Baker.

Baker was recognized by his peers as the 89th best player in the NFL according to the NFL Top 100.

Baker had a down year by most accounts, playing in only 12 games and had no interceptions, and his lowest total tackles since his rookie year.

Yet, it’s the reputation and when he is on the field that makes him so popular amongst his peers.

Baker made his sixth...
