Cardinals’ Defense and Roster Reality Check | Arizona Cardinals News

Cardinals’ season opener looms, and while Elijah Wilkinson holds the starting right tackle job, Jayden Williams is heating up as a potential wildcard. The defense, still reeling from last year’s three-win slog and Jonathan Gannon’s exit, carries a six-out-of-ten concern level — not bad, but not great either. Mike LaFleur’s offense promises fireworks, but if they’re stuck in shootouts, it won’t be enough. The wide receiver corps is stacked and deep, but outside linebacker remains a glaring weakness. Their brutal early slate — Chargers, Seahawks, 49ers — could be their toughest test yet, especially after losing QB and coach. Still, with LaFleur’s unpredictable attack, a win or two might sneak through. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
