Back-to-back final field-goal wins is a heck of a drug, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck are feeling the vibe of the Cardinals shifting their season. This week's podcast has discussion about unlocking the passing game, Marvin Harrison Jr. taking his game to a new level (and knowing even Jerry Rice had a learning curve), Trey McBride's excellence, Kyler looking like a great QB throwing the ball and avoiding sacks, the return of Darius Robinson, Budda Baker's case for the future, the Bears dealing with Hail Mary meltdown, Caleb Williams' growth, the trade deadline, Darren getting back to Wise Guy winning, and the best Halloween candy.

You'll never catch Paul Calvisi binging a reality show - it's beneath him - but the Cardinals are about season survival this week after a dramatic win over the Chargers. Paul joins Darren Urban and Dani Sureck to discuss Dani's TV thoughts, the Cardinals' difficult schedule thus far, the issues with the passing game, finding Marvin Harrison Jr.'s sweet spot, James Conner as warrior, Tua returning to the Dolphins as the Cardinals go to Miami, State Farm Stadium's benefits in a zombie attack, WWE Superstar Baron Corbin as one-time Cardinal, and Paul's emotional first Wise Guy win.

In an episode where Paul Calvisi breaks out his oven mitt, he and Darren Urban and Dani Sureck try to reset where the Cardinals are heading into a "Monday Night Football" game against the Chargers. So the trio discuss and debate the IR taking more key players from the Cardinals (and the Chargers too, for that matter), the need for the passing game and wide receivers to pop, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s three C's (or four, or five depending when Paul stops counting), a Cam Skattebo nickname, too many raccoons, Jim Harbaugh's return, the ball-control Chargers, and an episode of The Wise Guy in which Darren has some success for once.

Thank goodness Paul Calvisi and Dani Sureck have finally cooled down from the furnace that was Sunday's game against the 49ers, so they can join Darren Urban to chat about the big win in San Francisco and how the Cardinals shifted their season. The trio discuss the team's resilience, multiple players coming up big in big moments, the defense's stonewall of a second half, Darius Robinson's impending return, the importance of James Conner, the loss of Will Hernandez, weather games, Zay Jones impact, and Paul coming thisclose on The Wise Guy.

Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck get philosophical after the Cardinals' loss to the Commanders, acknowledging early that Paul is no Erin Andrews, and that Tom Brady will be in the house for the 49ers game. This week's discussion includes how the adaptations Jonathan Gannon promised might look like on the field, a run defense tested then and now, the potential of a Darius Robinson return, the "week after the Lions" games, missing Trey McBride and needing more MHJ, Brock Purdy surging and of course, this week's Wise Guy, Eye-Andy style.

The NFL is one big reality check, it seems (just look at the record of picks Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have posted through three weeks) and that includes the Cardinals after a physical loss to the Lions. It laid the groundwork for a podcast in which our trio discuss the missing run game (and Kyler running), how physical the game was and what was left in its wake, the Cardinals' pass catchers beyond Marvin Harrison Jr., getting more Trey McBride, the injury to Justin Jones, the Commanders coming to Arizona to practice this week, Kliff Kingsbury's return, Budda Baker's blistering blasting of opponents, and, of course, Paul's attempt to stop the runaway train that is Darren in this week's Wise Guy segment.

What in the name of Markus Golden was going on for the Cardinals against the Rams in the home opener? Everything clicked, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck have to wonder if it was Kyler Murray's best game in the NFL. (The Raiders win in 2022 has something to say.) So much good went on in the first win of the season, including Marvin Harrison Jr.'s breakout, the quiet excellence of Trey McBride, a defense that did everything right, Dennis Gardeck stepping up, the challenge of the playoff-worthy Lions this week, parallels between the Lions and Cardinals rebuilds, another Darren victory in this week's Wise Guy mini-game show, and taking a salary that matches your birthdate.

It was a rough Buffalo ending for the Cardinals, and Paul Calvisi, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck try and put it in perspective with the Rams up next and the home opener awaiting. The trio discuss Marvin Harrison Jr.'s debut (and how some questions sound a lot like some about Larry Fitzgerald in the past), Kyler's first game and his legs on display, a good first game for Zaven Collins, the Rams and the specter of Sean McVay, a beat-up L.A. offensive line and what it might mean to the defense, battling an underrated Matthew Stafford, needing more from rookies, and a brand-new game that shows just how wise Darren really can be.
