The Arizona Cardinals have reasons to look forward to in 2021. The side which saw its playoff berth slip from their fingers by losing their last two ties saw them finish 2020 with an 9-8 record.
There were multiple driving forces behind the Cardinals’ success. Quarterback Kyler Murray got into his groove and the side’s trade for star wideout DeAndre Hopkins paid off.

And the belief is that the Cardinals defense will only get better in 2021 thanks to the addition of five-time All-Pro defensive end J.J. Watt.
While Watt’s last All-Pro season was back in 2018, he will be a key weapon for the Cardinals defense. And now it looks like he can’t wait to get back to the grind.
