Pod-TST: Previewing Rams-Cardinals with Revenge of the Birds

Talking to one of the most knowledgeable football fans/coaches in Pod-TST history — Walter Mitchell of the SB Nation Cardinal’s blog Revenge of the Birds — was an enlightening and informative experience. Not only in gaining insight into the Arizona Cardinals, but into NFL offenses and defenses in general. Here’s a little bit of what you’ll hear us discuss as the Rams prepare to face the Cards in Arizona on Sunday afternoon and you can find Walter on Twitter @WBJMitch:

• The Steve Wilks/Josh Rosen “era”
• The bold decision to hire Kliff Kingsbury and whether or not that was a planned move to secure Kyler Murray in the draft
• Was Lincoln Riley a consideration first?
• Rosen’s bad luck with the 2018 team and his future in the NFL (Could Rams take a look?)
• The Air Raid offense and why it takes time and may not be as “exciting” as fans expected immediately
• Who is Arizona’s deep threat and complementary WRs?
• DeAndre Hopkins
• The play of the offensive line and how they’ll stop Aaron Donald
• Who does Donald remind Walter of? (A legend of course)
• What makes Donald so good and should he be considered for MVP
• Walter’s confidence in the Cards this weekend and the rest of the season
