ABOVE AVERAGE: Arizona Cardinals Kyler Murray Ranked in Top Half of NFL Quarterbacks

In this episode, host Alex Clancy explore the complex world of NFL quarterbacks, zeroing in on Kyler Murray of the Arizona Cardinals. They welcome NFL insider Mike Sando, who shares insights from his latest tier rankings, which position Murray at 15th overall based on feedback from a group of  NFL personnel.

The discussion delves into the controversial nature of Murray's talent and performance. Alex ponders whether he's a top-tier quarterback with game-changing abilities or a liability that hinders his team's progress. Sando's analysis offers a balanced view of Murray's strengths and weaknesses, explaining why opinions about him differ so drastically across the league.

The conversation broadens to examine the Cardinals' overall roster challenges and their impact on quarterback performance. The hosts analyze the team's defensive shortcomings and question if they're placing too much burden on their quarterback.

They draw parallels between Murray and other quarterbacks like Kirk Cousins and Jalen Hurts, debating the true worth of elite quarterback play in today's NFL. The hosts consider whether teams might fare better with a consistently above-average QB rather than a high-risk, high-reward talent.
