    Cardinals Hoping For Positive Ending To Dennis Gardeck's 'Remarkable Story'

    Dennis Gardeck's fairytale season met its antagonist on Sunday, when the Cardinals' outside linebacker was carted to the locker room with a knee injury late in the contest. While there are only two games left in the regular season, there is hope for a happy ending. Gardeck wouldn't have...

    Pro Bowl Marks Good Year For Kyler Murray, But He Wants More

    Most importantly, he's got the Cardinals with a chance to make the playoffs and, if they win Saturday against the 49ers, the first above-.500 season for the franchise since they made the NFC Championship game in 2015. "Any expectation any of us can put on him will fall way short of what he has...

    NFC Playoff Picture: Week 16

    The Cardinals kept their hold on the final wild card spot with a victory over the Eagles on Sunday. The Bears are now the only realistic contender, sitting one game back with two remaining. Chicago has the tiebreaker, so the Cardinals must be ahead at the end of the season to make the playoffs...

    You've Got Mail: 49ers Week, Part II

    "Hey Darren, I understand nobody like a Debbie Downer. I called into the postgame show trying to discuss Kyler, and got shamed for not just 'enjoying the win.' Not unlike fan forums, who shout you down for the smallest of criticisms. But I can only be honest. Kyler doesn't look like a long-term...

    Isaiah Simmons Shows Off Versatility Against Eagles

    The Cardinals let Isaiah Simmons roam on Sunday. The top-10 pick has played mainly inside linebacker as a rookie but displayed his versatility in the 33-26 win over the Eagles. Simmons began the game at free safety – nearly securing an interception on the first Eagles pass – and moved all...

    Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins, Budda Baker Named To Pro Bowl

    Hopkins already has seven 100-yard games this season and needs just seven more catches to set a franchise record – Larry Fitzgerald has had 109 twice. He becomes the fourth Cardinals Pro Bowl wide receiver in the last 20 years, joining Fitz (11 times), Anquan Boldin (3) and David Boston (1)...

    Chase Edmonds Active, Justin Pugh Inactive Against Eagles

    The Cardinals will have running back Chase Edmonds Sunday against the Eagles. How much, given that Edmonds could be limited with an ankle injury, remains to be seen. But Edmonds is a key part of the offense all season and his availability can only help. The Cardinals will not have starting...

    Ezekiel Turner Proves Special In Close Win Over Eagles

    The Big Three did it again as Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins and Ezekiel Turner led the Cardinals to a 33-26 win over the Eagles on Sunday. Wait, Ezekiel Turner? For one day at least, the reserve linebacker proved as crucial to the Cardinals' fortunes as the stars, coming up with a pair of...

    Cardinals Grab Victory Over Eagles Through DeAndre Hopkins

    Instead rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts was trying to make his own highlights, with three TD passes, 338 yards through the air, and no turnovers, giving the Eagles (4-9-1) hope and making the Cardinals sweat. It was an odd game for the Cards, who had 526 yards of offense – their highest total...

    Easy Math: Cardinals Need Win Over Eagles To Keep Playoff Positioning

    The Cardinals' defense is coming off a sterling performance of its own, holding the Giants to seven points and 159 total yards in Week 14 while racking up eight sacks, four forced fumbles and a pair of takeaways. Outside linebacker Haason Reddick will aim to provide an encore after setting a...

    Cardinals Place Zane Gonzalez, Jordan Phillips On IR; Sign D.J. Foster

    Kenyan Drake Proving Capable Of Handling Heavy Workload

    Chase Edmonds practiced in a limited capacity on Friday, so there is a chance the Cardinals' two-pronged approach at running back remains on schedule in Week 15 against the Eagles. But if a balky ankle keeps Edmonds sidelined on Sunday, it could mean a heavier workload for starter Kenyan...

    Three Big Things: #PHIvsAZ

    When the Cardinals have had offensive success – whether it was the stretch run last season, or this season – they have run the ball. They get to 150 yards on the ground with remarkable ease, actually. That doesn't mean they should run all the time, but it is a crucial part of the game. And while...

    As Good As DeAndre Hopkins Has Been, Kliff Kingsbury Sees More

    DeAndre Hopkins is going to make the Pro Bowl, he's got a chance to be an All-Pro for a fourth straight season, and he is the first Cardinal to reach 1,000 yards receiving since Larry Fitzgerald did it in 2017. Yet Kliff Kingsbury looks at Hopkins and what he's done in the offense during...

    'Jet' Pass-Rushing Package Flying High For Cardinals

    Jalen Hurts can run fast. On Sunday, the Eagles' rookie quarterback may need to prove he can process information at a similar speed. The Cardinals' defense has found success this season using a unique pass-rushing package called 'Jet' – where six or seven linebackers/defensive backs stand...

    Jalen Hurts: Kyler Murray 'Paved The Way For A Guy Like Me'

    Jalen Hurts went from a true freshman starter at Alabama to backing up Tua Tagovailoa as a junior, so he needed to make his senior season count in 2019. When considering transfer options, Hurts gravitated to Oklahoma, in large part due to Kyler Murray. Much like Hurts, Murray had one season...

    A Visit To Train's Station Helps Haason Reddick Find His Way

    Berry, watching the Giants' game on TV, saw Reddick's first sack and, while he didn't see a five-sack game coming, he could tell Reddick was going to have a good day. Then Reddick notched a third sack, and Berry shot Reddick a text: "Man, I SEE you." "Then he got to four, and you can't even...

    Haason Reddick Captures NFC Defensive Player Of The Week

    In what might be the least surprising award a Cardinal has ever won, Haason Reddick was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week Wednesday morning after his five-sack game in New York. Reddick set the franchise record for sacks in a game, beating Curtis Greer's 4½ mark from a game in 1983...
