*The Phoenix Suns season is turning into a roller coaster — just like the stock market — full of ups, downs, and unpredictable swings. But there’s one big problem the Suns can’t ignore: frontcourt depth.* Oso Ighodaro’s minutes have become a growing concern, and it’s raising a serious question… how long can Phoenix afford to wait before turning to rookie Khaman Maluach? Plus, the Cardinals QB competition is coming to an end with Jacoby Brissett named as starter against the Seahawks and we load up the hot take cannon.

The Arizona Cardinals just shocked the NFL with a huge win over the Dallas Cowboys — but one victory doesn’t fix everything. If the Cardinals want to build real momentum, they need to make a move before the NFL Trade Deadline. Espo breaks down why this is the perfect time for Monti Ossenfort to be aggressive, what positions need help most, and which trade targets could push the Cardinals toward the future.

It’s time to put your tinfoil hats on because something is brewing with the Arizona Cardinals when it comes to Kyler Murray and it isn’t clear whether or not it’s gamesmanship or something much BIGGER. Plus, is there a conspiracy against the Phoenix Suns rookies Khaman Maluach and Rasheer Fleming?

The Birth of a New Phoenix Suns Era… Built on Growing Pains for Devin Booker, Jalen Green and More

If you’re mad at Devin Booker and the Phoenix Suns right now, you might want to take a closer look at *why*. The Suns are evolving — playing team-first basketball, showing grit, and proving they’re more than just star power. Yet some fans still aren’t satisfied. Espo breaks down why the criticism of Booker and the Suns says more about fans’ expectations than the team itself, and why this version of the Suns deserves more respect.

Kyler Murray is back under center for the Arizona Cardinals — but could this be his last chance to prove he’s still the franchise QB? After weeks of speculation about his future in Arizona, Murray faces the Dallas Cowboys in what feels like a make-or-break moment for his career. Can he silence the critics and remind everyone why he was once seen as the Cardinals’ savior, or will this be the final chapter of the Kyler Murray era in the desert? Espo breaks down what’s at stake for Kyler, how the Cardinals’ front office is evaluating his performance, and why this Cowboys matchup could determine everything moving forward.

The Phoenix Suns were once built solely on star power — but not anymore. This season, they’re so much more than just what Devin Booker can do. The Suns have embraced a true team-first approach built on chemistry, toughness, and trust — a roster full of “firefighters” ready to step up at a moment’s notice. With Hall of Famer Steve Nash back to lend his wisdom and leadership, the Suns are building something deeper than highlight plays — they’re building a culture. In this episode of **Southwest Bias**, Espo breaks down how Phoenix has evolved beyond the Booker-KD era blueprint and why this version of the Suns might finally be built to last.

The start of a Phoenix Suns season brings with it many things. The biggest of which is hope. This year’s new look squad with Dillon Brooks, Jalen Green and led by familiar face Devin Booker offers it in spades but is it real or are we all just enjoying the moment before games start because it’s the best it will get?

Jonathan Gannon still believes the Arizona Cardinals can save their season — but can they really do it without a true star to lead the way? Kyler Murray’s struggled to find consistency, the coaching staff is under pressure, and no one has stepped up to carry this team when it matters most. Espo breaks down why the Cardinals’ biggest problem might not be effort or scheme — it’s the lack of a real difference-maker. We’ll look at who could emerge as that guy, what Gannon is saying behind the scenes, and whether Arizona’s season can still be salvaged.

Cardinals fans have been patient long enough. Another week, another disappointment — and it’s clear something has to change. Whether it’s Kyler Murray, Drew Petzing, or this entire coaching staff, the Arizona Cardinals can’t keep running it back and expecting different results. Let’s break down why the Cardinals’ season feels stuck, what’s really holding this team back, and what major change could finally get Arizona back on track.

With the opinions around the NFL world turning on Jonathan Gannon and the Cardinals, the team has become all business. It’s why they’re primed to do something they haven’t done all season, win. Plus, PHNX Cardinals’ Bo Brock stops by to talk Sunday’s game about against the Green Bay Packers, Kyler Murray vs. Jacoby Brissett and more.

JOIN THE SUPPORTERS CLUB ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/yc6km2r4 From sloppy execution to questionable adjustments, it’s clear the cracks are starting to show in Gannon’s third year as head coach. Can he get this team back on track before things spiral out of control — or is the pressure finally catching up to him? In today’s show, we break down comments that are showing how Gannon is handling things. #ArizonaCardinals #JonathanGannon #NFL #Cardinals #BirdGang #NFLNews #CardinalsNation #arizonasports An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube: https://bit.ly/phnx_youtube ALL THINGS PHNX: http://linktr.ee/phnxsports MERCH https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/phnx-locker ALLCITY Network, Inc. aka PHNX and PHNX Sports is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by the City of Phoenix PHNX Events: Get your tickets to PHNX events and takeovers here: https://gophnx.com/events/ ALLCITY — including us here at PHNX — is teaming up with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America for an exciting three-year partnership.

As the Phoenix Suns retooled their roster with culture being a big focus. While the word is nice in theory, it’s a different thing in practice. The preseason, and Khaman Maluach in the finale, showed just what the new standard is.

The Arizona Cardinals aren’t in the honeymoon phase anymore with head coach Jonathan Gannon. After a rocky start to the season and mounting frustration from fans, the pressure is officially on in Arizona.

Is Kyler Murray’s time as the Arizona Cardinals’ unquestioned QB1 coming to an end? 👀 It’s a valid question after backup Jacoby Brissett threw for over 300 yards and had the offense moving against the Colts. But a switch would have less to do with Murray and more to do with Offensive Coordinator Drew Petzing.

The Cardinals aim to rebound from a rough loss in Indianapolis this Sunday against a formidable Colts team—but they may have to do it without Kyler Murray. Bo Brack from PHNX Cardinals joins us live from the practice facility with the latest on K1’s status and whether he’ll suit up. We also tip our hats to local football star Cam Skattebo, who shined in the Giants’ Thursday Night Football win over the Eagles. Plus, what’s in a name? Apparently, a lot when changing the name of the building our basketball teams play in WHILE they’re in the Finals.
