On this episode of Locked On Cardinals, Alex Clancy dives into the pivotal question every Arizona Cardinals fan is asking: “Who can we trust on offense heading into the 2026 season?” With the coaching staff settled and free agency looming, Alex Clancy kicks off a four-part miniseries—breaking down the core of the roster, player by player.
In this first installment, he lays out the trustworthy pillars of the offense: quarterback Jacoby Brissett, pass-catchers Trey McBride and Michael Wilson, and offensive linemen Paris Johnson Jr. and Hjalte Froholdt. Through thoughtful analysis, Alex Clancy explains why Brissett’s experience, leadership, and game management make him a calming force in the quarterback room—and how McBride and Wilson proved their reliability by seizing opportunities and producing under pressure last season.
He also highlights the underrated value of Froholdt at center and Johnson Jr.’s progress at left tackle, detailing their importance in stabilizing a long-struggling offensive line. Notably, Alex Clancy explores how these five (out of eleven starters) form the foundation for what the Cardinals must build on as the new regime takes shape. The conversation isn’t just about numbers—it’s about resilience, consistency, and trustworthiness.
Stay tuned as Alex Clancy outlines upcoming parts of this miniseries: which players present questions or concerns on offense (coming Monday), trustworthy defenders (Tuesday), and defensive question marks. If you’re an Arizona Cardinals fan looking for an honest assessment and a path forward, this episode is your essential guide to the team’s offensive trust factors as the new season approaches. Let’s discuss.
