Cardinals Cruise Over LA: The Franchise Tag Talk Show Week 1
Cardinals Shock Chargers & Is the NFC East Up for Grabs?! 🏈 | The Franchise Tag Podcast
Did we get the Arizona Cardinals completely wrong? 🤔 On this week’s episode of The Franchise Tag Podcast, we start the 2026 regular season focusing on Arizona’s stunning upset over the Los Angeles Chargers! Delivering a dominant performance on both offence and defence, the Cardinals completely controlled the game, upsetting a lot of would-be ‘haters’. We break down what went right for Arizona, whether this team can keep the momentum rolling into more major upsets, and what went horribly wrong for Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers. ⚡
