The 2020 NFL season ended on an anti-climactic note for Kliff Kingsbury and the Arizona Cardinals. The NFC West franchise started their campaign on a strong note but failed to build on that as the season progressed. They missed out on a playoff spot, finishing 3rd in their division with an 8-8 record.

However, Murray and Co. are doing things differently in 2021. The Cardinals are currently the only remaining unbeaten team left in the NFL. A big reason behind their dominance this season is the performance of veteran defensive end, JJ Watt.

The former Houston Texans man arrived in Phoenix earlier this summer. But he is already a leader in the locker room. Here’s what the 2-time NFL DPOTY had to say after the team’s latest win in Week 6.

JJ Watt and the Arizona Cardinals make bold statement after latest win

JJ Watt is widely regarded as a stalwart of 21st-century football. Arguably the best defensive end from the last decade, Watt was a wanted man this summer after he cut ties with the struggling Texans.

A lot of eyebrows were raised when he ultimately signed for the Cardinals. But as we approach Week 7 of the season, we see why Watt made the move to Phoenix in search of newfound glory.

Under the leadership of the young and enigmatic Kliff Kingsbury, the Cardinals have slowly and steadily grown into a formidable force in the NFC West. They’ve taken their form to the next level and will look to maintain the momentum as we approach the second half of the season.

Next up for the Cardinals is a game against the Texans on Sunday, October 24, 2021. It will be interesting to see how the fans receive Watt in what promises to be a thrilling union.
