Missing Malik Willis Isn’t the Problem — The Arizona Cardinals Have No Plan

The Arizona Cardinals didn’t just miss out on Malik Willis — they lost him to the Miami Dolphins, a team with little to no cap space. And the way the Cardinals’ quarterback situation has unfolded since raises a bigger question: does Monti Ossenfort and this franchise actually really have a plan?

In this episode of Southwest Bias, Espo breaks down how Arizona’s QB search turned into chaos. From losing out on Malik Willis , to the questionable decision to attempt to sign Jimmy Garoppolo and failing, and now settling for Gardner Minshew to compete with Jacoby Brissett, the Cardinals’ path at the most important position in football looks anything but clear.

We dive into:

• How the Cardinals lost out on Malik Willis to Miami
• Why the Jimmy Garoppolo move may have backfired
• What the Gardner Minshew vs. Jacoby Brissett competition actually says about the roster
• Whether Monti Ossenfort and the front office have a real long-term strategy

Is this a calculated tank… or a series of reactions without a clear direction?

If you’re trying to understand where the Cardinals are headed next, this is a conversation every Arizona fan needs to hear.
