Locked on Cardinals   /     Arizona Cardinals Defensive Trajectory Mirrors Los Angeles Rams

Shownotes

Arizona Cardinals are on the outside looking in at the 2024 NFL playoffs that are in full swing, but that doesn't mean they're that far off from competing in them in 2025. One NFC West opponent dominated their Wild Card round opponent and the Arizona Cardinals are on the same trajectory to be able to implement the same dominance: the Los Angeles Rams. With a young defense of impact makers like Byron Young, Jared Verse, and Braden Fiske, the Sean McVay-led Rams are set up for success for years to come. The Cardinals in their own right are set up for the same potential success with the likes of Garrett Williams, Max Melton, BJ Ojulari, Darius Robinson, and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. With wizard defensive minds Jonathan Gannon and Nick Rallis taking the lead, the Arizona Cardinals defense could wreak havoc on the NFL for years to come.

 

What does a good defense do for Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals offense? Does Kyler Murray NEED to be elite for the Cardinals to make the playoffs in 2025? Where do the Cardinals stack up against the rest of the NFC for 2025 and beyond? Let's discuss.
