The extremely brief preview: The Cardinals will have a successful season if they win a playoff game...or maybe even if they just make the playoffs or even just if they just win nine games this regular season whether they actually make the playoffs or not! The Cardinals haven't won a playoff game since the 2016-16 season and they haven't been to the playoffs since the 2021-22 season. The last time they won exactly eight games in a regular season, they won 11 the very next season as the Cardinals finished 8-9 in 2024-25! The Cardinals are most likely going to struggle since the Rams and 49ers will both probably be at least good (if not great) in the 2025-26 season!

That is the end of the extremely brief preview.

Any words in parentheses that have four numbers after them are in the four base ciphers of Gematria. Gematria often can be used to determine which team is probably going to win (or lose) every single NFL game of the 2025-26 season!

I am going to list the first several numbers spelled out in the four main base ciphers of Gematria!

Please consider using the Gematria calculator yourself at Gematrinator.com/calculator.

Gematria basically is like a secret code so people can correctly get their message across and sent to people who really need to hear it! In dangerous times in the past, you couldn't get your message through to the people who really needed it if you wrote something that your enemy could easily understand! But with a secret code, your messages wouldn't be detained or intercepted quite as often or easily and your messages could actually get through and your enemy wouldn't know what the message you wanted to send someone was/is, which is partly why Gematria is so EXTREMELY important! I also believe winning streaks or losing streaks of a certain number of games will be able to let your know how a team will do throughout the upcoming season when you apply Gematria to it!:

"Zero": 64/28/44/17

"One": 34/16/47/11

"Two": 58/13/23/14

"Three": 56/29/79/25

"Four": 60/24/48/21

"Five": 42/24/66/21

"Six": 52/16/29/20

"Seven": 65/20/70/25

"Sixteen": 96/33/93/39

"Seventeen": 109/37/134/44

"Eighteen": 73/46/143/35

You can also add "Week" to each cipher/number written above in Gematria and then apply it to each week or the relevant week of the 2025-26 NFL regular season!

"Week": 44/17/64/19

Or you could even determine winning or losing streaks in Gematria!:

"W1": 24/6/5/5

"W2": 25/7/6/6

"W3:: 26/8/7/7

"W4": 27/9/8/8

The Arizona Cardinals had the 16th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft!

In Gematria:

"NFL": 32/14/49/13

"National Football League": 220/85/374/122

The 2025-26 season is the 106th National Football League Season. In the actual year of 2026 is scheduled to be the 60th Super Bowl and the 56th Super Bowl of the modern era.

"Champions" in Gematria is 98/44/145/46

The 60th prime number is 281.

There's a good chance this season will be dedicated to the late former pope, "Pope Francis" or the current pope, "Pope Leo XIV" whose papacy began on May 8th, 2025. It probably would be a good idea to figure out how many days it is to and from Super Bowl 59 and Super Bowl 60 from May 8th, 2025.

Pope Francis was born on December 17th, 1936 and died on April 21st, 2025. He lived for 88 years and 4 months. His papacy as pope began on March 13th, 2013, and it ended on April 21st, 2025. So he was pope for 12 years and 1 month.

Pope Leo XIV was born on September 14th, 1955. He is currently 69 years of age in April and May 2025. Pope Leo's middle name is "Francis" and with the Super Bowl being near San "Francis"co this year it probably is a great idea to know the Gematria of "Francis" and many other names.

The "Pope" is the "Bishop of Rome" which is the head of the "Catholic Church".

"Pope": 52/25/56/11

The Cardinals all-time in the preseason have 159 wins, 188 losses and 5 ties. The Cardinals have played 352 preseason games all-time and they are -29 games below .500 in the preseason. The Cardinals are currently on a three-game losing streak in the preseason all-time heading into the 2025-26 season.

The Arizona Cardinals 2025-26 schedule and all-time won-lost records against any opponent on the following dates:

Preseason

Preseason (the Cardinals finished 0-3 in preseason games in the 2024-25 season and they went 0-1 at home and 0-2 away)

August 9th vs. Kansas City Chiefs (The Cardinals are 10-17-1 in the preseason against the Chiefs all-time and 4-9 as the designated home team against the Chiefs in the preseason all-time and 4-8 in the Cardinals home stadium against the Chiefs in the preseason all-time! The Cardinals have also lost four straight against the Chiefs in the preseason all-time and they have lost three straight at home against the Chiefs in the preseason at home all-time! The Cardinals are 27-13-2 against the Chiefs all-time, which includes the regular season and the playoffs!)

The Chiefs, on the other hand, are 147-134-3 in the preseason all-time!

August 16th at Denver Broncos

August 23rd vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Regular Season

Regular Season (The Cardinals won in Weeks 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 18 in the 2024-25 season. They had a bye in Week 11 and they lost all of their other games, to finish 8-9 for the season. The Cardinals finished 2-5 in their last seven games of the 2024-25 regular season.)

If the Arizona Cardinals maintain their current streaks on every single regular season game "date" this season all-time, they will finish with a regular season won-lost record of 8 wins and 9 losses or 9 wins and 8 losses depending on which date they play for their last two games of the 2025-26 regular season. They could even finish as well as 10 wins and 7 losses possibly.
