# Tyler Sullivan: Sullivan lists five Week 9 developments he wouldn't be shocked to see: a breakout rushing game from Broncos rookie Jonah Coleman against Carolina, a possible NFL debut for Cardinals rookie QB Carson Beck against Seattle, multiple turnovers from Jayden Daniels against the Rams, a big bounce-back from Bijan Robinson against Cincinnati, and the Chargers firing offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. **Claimed:** Nov 5, 2026 **Pundit:** Tyler Sullivan — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/tyler-sullivan **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-week-9-surprise-predictions-cardinals-carson-beck-chargers-fire-mike-mcdaniel/ 2 checkable claims — 1 availability call and 1 depth chart call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > At some point, this ascension up the depth chart will continue for Beck to the point where he starts games for the Cardinals this season. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Carson Beck to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Carson Beck, Arizona Cardinals - Verdict: not settled yet - **Carson Beck makes his NFL debut vs. Seahawks ...
