We can debate semantics but the end result is the same, which is the Cardinals are not going out of their way to build a winning team for 2025. If they get every possible break to go their way and they end up as a contender then fine. Otherwise it will be a shoulder shrug. Our 2025 payroll may end up being $50M less than 2024. That doesn’t sound like a team trying to win in the near term.

That is why I don’t understand all of the hand wringing about playing certain younger guys. They have stated numerous times since the end of the season that they are going to focus on younger players yet we have folks who seem to be shocked that it might actually happen.
