The Arizona Cardinals have won four games in a row and that has gotten the attention of people around the league. As a result, they have climbed all the way up into the top 10 of the latest NFL power rankings from USA Today’s Nate Davis.
After the most recent 31-6 home win over the New York Jets, he moved up from No. 11 to No. 10.
Not a lot of recognizable names on this defense, but it hasn’t allowed a touchdown in three consecutive home games – meaning all of October and November.
The Cardinals are 6-4 and in first place in the NFC West. As they enter the bye, they are guaranteed to be in first place when Week 12 begins.
As for the rest of the NFC West, the San Francisco 49ers are right behind the Cardinals at No. 11 with the return of running back Christian McCaffrey, the L.A. Rams are No. 19 and the Seattle Seahawks are No. 20.
