Arizona Cardinals
Who is the breakout candidate for the Arizona Cardinals?
Happy Monday one and all.
We will have an open thread for the College Football National Championship game, with some names to watch, but the Arizona Cardinals have one player they need to step up, because they’ve been waiting on him for nearly two years.
B.J. Ojluari has dealt with a plethora of injuries in his short two seasons, but PFF has him as a breakout candidate for 2025.

With special guest Marcos Labrada
Today we have Marcos Labrada our good friend and super Cardinals’ film analyst with us to discuss how close the Cardinals are to competing for an NFC West title and a playoff run to the Super Bowl —- and what it will take this off-season for the Cardinals to hit the ground running for the 2025 season. Let’s begin by measuring how the Cardinals stacked up versus the NFC West in 2024.

We are almost set with the draft order for 2025.
Happy Monday one and all.
The Arizona Cardinals and the rest of the league watched a great game to end what was a marginally better Divisional Playoff weekend than what we saw during Wild Card weekend.
We have one upstart left, and a lot of chalk.
After the NFL Divisional Playoffs have come and gone, we now have the most up to date 2025 NFL Draft order.

Who will meet the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game?
Who matches up against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game?
The Baltimore Ravens beat up the Buffalo Bills in week 4. Since then, the Bills look like a different animal.
How does this one end up?
So much up in the air, and I get that this is the best game on paper of the weekend, but man, playing this game this late on the east coast is interesting.
Here is everything you need to know.

Who will play the Commanders in the NFC Championship Game?
The NFC Championship will include the Washington Commanders.
Who will host the game? Well, we will find out today if the Philadelphia Eagles or Los Angeles Rams will host the NFL Championship Game this year.
This is an interesting matchup, as the Eagles throttled the Rams in Week 12 of the 2024 NFL season, but since that loss, they are 6-1 including their blowout win in the playoffs.
Their one loss was in a game they didn’t even try to win and they barely lost.
This game looks like it...

News and notes from around the web on your Arizona Cardinals.
Happy Sunday one and all.
The Arizona Cardinals had a nice week on the news, playing hosts to the Los Angeles Rams, getting some good publicity and hopefully putting out some good juju for the next season.
That and more to get your day started with a look around the web at your Arizona Cardinals.

The NFC Divisional round pits the Lions against the Commanders.
Happy Saturday evening one and all.
The main event tonight is a game no one expected when the season started.
Well, at least one side of things.
The top seed in the NFC, the Detroit Lions, take on the upstart and surprising Washington Commanders.
This one is not close in Vegas, but you have to assume the Commanders are ready and willing to put up a fight.
The over is massive, feels like bait.
Here is everything you need to know.

The first of four divisional playoff games, starting with the defending Super Bowl Champions.
Happy Saturday one and all.
We kickoff the divisional round of the NFL Playoffs with the two-time defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Houston Texans.
Can the Texans find their offensive footing while keeping up their strong defensive effort?
Are the Chiefs rounding into form?
This is the first of four games this weekend, we will see how things go, but this one on paper does not look promising.

Happy Saturday morning one and all.
Jess and I are back, this week with our 2024 Arizona Cardinals awards, and looking at a bevy of topics and players throughout the conversation.

How many of these rankings do you agree with? Why?
A day or two ago these NFC West position rankings were posted on X by a Cardinals’ fan @MHJera:
I always appreciate posts like this one because I think they provoke some constructive discussions. Kudos to Maserati Marv fan for this creative effort.
ROTB Poll:
Of the 10 categories, how many of the Cardinals’ rankings do you agree with?
I agree with 5 of the 10.
Let’s see and discuss where we agree and differ, shall we?
You go first.

We look at the Wildcard Weekend, the NFL Coaching searches and grade the 2024 Arizona Cardinals defense.
Happy Friday one and all.
The Arizona Cardinals are preparing for the 2025 NFL Draft, but Jess and I are still working through the 2024 NFL season.
We start off by talking about the wretched weekend of Wild Card games, and what that tells us about what is happening in Arizona as well.
From there, we discuss the Arizona Cardinals defense and grade the unit and each position group.
Finally, we discuss the 2025 NFL Coaching carousel and what we make of the...

Winner receives this Cardinals’ mini pocket-sized helmet
Wow, gang, what a football weekend to get excited about.
Thought we’d make things interesting. The ROTB member who picks the most winners and, if need be, gets the Ohio State vs Notre Dame over/under correct, wins this mini pocket-sized Cardinals helmet.
Pick the winners and the OSU/ND O/U
Enjoy the games!
