Over the first two months of the NFL season, it looked like Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals would have the inside track to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. We know that didn’t come to fruition, and the second half of the year was pretty much a disaster for the Cardinals, based on how stro...

For Kyler Murray, the questions will keep coming
I’m sure Kyler Murray will look forward to another year of questions about whether or not he has a big win within him.

Coach of the Year should come down to two guys
Across all sports, the Coach of the Year Award has a misleading title.

That’s what voters are really looking for. By that criteria,...

Sorry Vegas, but there’s no way Jim Harbaugh or Nick Saban goes to the NFL
NFL teams have been looking at college coaches to fill their head coaching vacancies more than ever. In each of the past three seasons, at least one coach made the jump to the NFL after years of working at the collegiate level. Urban Meyer is the most recent college coach to take that route, and alt...

Sooners’ planned move to the SEC might’ve pushed Riley to USC

Eagles ship Zach Ertz to the Cards… but how much can he help?
Earlier today, the Cardinals continued to build their 2017 Pro Bowl squad by adding three-time Pro Bowler Zach Ertz to their roster. A.J. Green, J.J. Watt, and now Ertz? My goodness! Imagine if Larry Fitzgerald wanted to keep playing, 20-year-old me would be going absolutely nuts right now. ...

Kyler Murray and Cardinals give Rams a two-piece spicy combo in L.A.
