As we close out our NFL Previews, will the NFC West see a new champion for a fourth consecutive season, or will Russ and the Seahawks prove to have some staying power within a division in which the competition is annually tight??? If there is any division in the NFL that is the most difficult to handicap from one year to the next, it's undoubtedly the NFC West, which has seen three different teams wear the crown in as many years, with two of their … [Read more...]
Los Angeles Rams @ Arizona Cardinals
4:05 PM EST, FOX - Line: Rams -3, Over/Under: 48.5 Entering December, the race within the NFC West is heating up as the Arizona Cardinals play host to the Los Angeles Rams in the first of two meetings in less than a month, this one from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. If the Playoffs were to indeed kick off today, then the Rams (7-4, 2nd in NFC West) would no doubt be clapping their collective hands, for even though they trail the … [Read more...]
Arizona Cardinals @ Seattle Seahawks

San Francisco 49ers @ Arizona Cardinals
8:20 PM EST, FOX - Line: 49ers -8.5, Over/Under: 44 Division rivals headed in very different directions face off in a midweek clash in the desert, as the unbeaten San Francisco 49ers battle the Arizona Cardinals from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

After two years unfortunately spent ravaged … [Read more...]
NFL Preview 2019: Arizona Cardinals
Our 2019 NFL Preview transitions to the NFC West, where we kick things off with the Arizona Cardinals, who are looking to rebound after a particularly dreadful season which saw them riddled with injuries, flatlining to the worst record in the league at 3-13. However, they may be mistaken for another bird, or at least a fictional one, the phoenix, when you consider their inevitable rebirth; to the shock of many, Arizona made the unlikeliest of hires, … [Read more...]
Denver Broncos @ Arizona Cardinals
8:20 PM EST, NFL Network - Line: Broncos -2.5, Over/Under: 41.5 Desperation sets in early in the National Football League, as a pair of struggling teams face off in the desert as the flailing Denver Broncos meet the rebuilding Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. For Vance Joseph and the Broncos (2-4, 3rd in AFC West), it appears that the second verse is the same as the first, for 2018 has now begun in an eerily similar … [Read more...]
Seattle Seahawks @ Arizona Cardinals
8:25 PM EST, NBC - Line: Seahawks -6, Over/Under: 41.5 NFC West Rivals clash tonight in the Desert, as the Arizona Cardinals host the Seattle Seahawks from University of Phoenix Stadium, in a matchup featuring a pair of teams trying to climb back into the division race.

Dallas Cowboys @ Arizona Cardinals
8:30 PM EST, ESPN - Line: Cowboys -3, Over/Under: 47 A pair of teams that were expected to challenge for NFC Supremacy look instead to put disappointing starts behind them, as the Dallas Cowboys travel to Glendale, Arizona to face the Cardinals at University of Phoenix Stadium. 2016 was indeed a renaissance of sorts for the Cowboys (1-1, 1st in NFC East), who tied a Franchise Record with thirteen victories largely on the strength of two dynamic … [Read more...]
Seattle Seahawks @ Arizona Cardinals
8:30 PM EST, NBC - Line: Cardinals -2, Over/Under: 44 NFC West powerhouses meet tonight at University of Phoenix Field as the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals meet in the first of their two annual division battles.

Once again, the Offensive Line has been … [Read more...]
