Storylines

Hjalte Froholdt grades out as ARI's best

Hjalte Froholdt (G) is at 71 out of 100 through week 8 of 2026. That score compares him with everyone else at his position — an 84 would mean better than 84% of them — and it comes from charted play, not raw totals.

Where They Stand

Overall: Grade 43, 30th of 32 — near the bottom.

Strengths: tight ends (5th).

Weaknesses: coaching (32nd) and special teams (31st).

Coaching: Jonathan Gannon falls 2.3 points a game short of what his rosters' grades say he should, over 58 games, 32nd in the league.

Defense — better on paper: The defense's players grade 56 out of 100, but on the field that side has played better than 23% of the league.

This season: 2-5. Last time out, they lost to Denver Broncos 16-30.

Since preseason: Barely moved since the preseason.

Written from this club's own numbers: its grade, the offense, defense, special teams and coach that make it up, its last games, its division, and its depth chart. Which facts show up depends on where this club is unusual, so no two teams get the same summary. The site builds the sentences from those numbers. A chatbot does not write them.
