There is only one football, of course, and that means every time David Johnson has it in his hands for the Cardinals, Kenyan Drake does not. But that doesn’t mean the team’s running backs are rooting for the other’s demise. Quite the opposite, in fact. Johnson had a nice bounceback game in...

The Cardinals’ highest-profile rookie looked like one on Sunday, as quarterback Kyler Murray threw three interceptions in a 23-17 loss to the Steelers. The team’s second pick in April’s draft, Byron Murphy, also showed his youth. The Cardinals' cornerback had trouble in coverage, primarily...

The Steelers (7-5) have won six of their past seven games to vault into the second wild card spot in the AFC, but there are many teams on their tail. Pittsburgh has one of the NFL’s best defenses, but will be undermanned offensively against the Cardinals. Running back James Conner (shoulder)...

With a pair of cornerbacks ailing going into Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Cardinals made a roster move Saturday, promoting cornerback Jalen Davis to the active roster. To make room, the Cards released defensive lineman Caraun Reid, who had just been signed earlier in the...

In the three games prior to the derailment against the Rams, the Cardinals’ offense had looked pretty good. The Cardinals had averaged 26 points a game, generated 5.9 yards a play and ran for 121 yards a game. Kyler Murray was protecting the ball, like he had all season. The offense...

Keim acknowledged the last year-plus has been difficult. "This is a job that you have to have thick skin and broad shoulders when you take it on," Keim said. "I'm disappointed because I'm a proud guy, and I want to make all of our fans proud, and I want to make everyone in the organization...

A Season Unto Itself, Take Two The idea was that the final five games after the bye would be like it’s own season, Kliff Klingsbury said. So that didn’t exactly get off to the right start, the way the Cardinals performed last week in the loss to the Rams. Here’s for a reset of the reset. Four...

Coach Kliff Kingsbury has shut down the notion of a change, which Joseph appreciates. Joseph said he isn’t worried about his job status. “I’m not,” he said. “I’ve been coaching a long time in this league. I’ve had success as a coach. I’m not worried about that. That’s not my call. My job is to...

THE CARDINALS GET TIGHT END OFF WAIVERS, PUT BULLARD ON IR The Cardinals claimed tight end Dan Arnold off waivers Thursday, after Arnold had been released by the Saints. To make room on the roster, the Cards put defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard (hamstring) on injured reserve to end his...

Linebacker Tanner Vallejo was making a push for a roster spot in the preseason but was ultimately released. Now Vallejo, whom the Cardinals originally claimed off waivers last offseason, gets his chance to be on the 53-man roster, after the team promoted him from the practice squad Wednesday...

Coach Kliff Kingsbury had said Walker, the veteran in his second year in Arizona, had earned the chance to play full-time. As the weeks had passed, Walker had been taking more and more reps from Reddick on the inside, with Walker playing all 79 defensive snaps Sunday against the Rams. Reddick...

Kyler Murray knows the NFL is a different animal than college football, and he has begrudgingly accepted losses this season. But the rookie quarterback will never be fine with a performance like the one the Cardinals put on display in Sunday’s 34-7 loss to the Rams. Murray had the worst...

Well, I believe the rookie wall -- especially for a team that is not in the playoff hunt -- is a reality. (Rookies on good teams I think can be affected too, it's just that there is a certain adrenaline around a locker room when the playoffs are a possibility.) It is a long season, and the...

Marsh waits to see if Goff will begin his throwing motion: “I was hoping he would. That’s kind of why I jumped into him, because I wanted to chop and make sure I got the elbow.” Bullard continues to work: “Cassius won and put the pressure. Chan (Jones) won and put the pressure. I just stayed...

Coach Kliff Kingsbury had three solid running back options at his disposal on Sunday, but no matter which choice he made, the Cardinals couldn’t find room to run against the Rams. After a week of speculation, Kenyan Drake was indeed the main ballcarrier, but he finished with only 31 rushing...

Despite his small stature, Kyler Murray had always been the hammer. On Sunday against the Rams, he was the nail. The rookie quarterback suffered the worst loss “in my life, probably,” as the Cardinals were outclassed from start to finish in a 34-7 defeat at State Farm Stadium. While the pass...

“Anything I can say at this point would fall upon deaf ears and it should,” Kingsbury added. “We’ve just got to get it fixed.” It’s the second time in five games the Cardinals have surrendered 500 yards of offense, after the Saints also reached that mark. And Goff is the second NFC West...

The Cardinals struggled in their pass defense Sunday during a loss to the Rams, and Monday, the fallout included the release of one of their main cornerbacks. The Cards cut veteran Tramaine Brock, leaving Chris Jones or Kevin Peterson as the top choice as a third corner aside from starters...

Those problems are allowing pass catchers to run wide open, or create so much space after the catch receivers are running for significant yardage. The coverage has struggled. Top cornerback Patrick Peterson, who has now played six games after his six-game suspension, has not played consistently...
