Week 8 of the NFL season kicks off tonight with one of the best Thursday-night matchups we have ever seen. The 6-1 Green Bay Packers, winners of six straight, take on the 7-0 Arizona Cardinals in prime time on the national stage.
Both teams are well on their way to the postseason, leading their divisions, and have stars at quarterback playing at a high level this season. Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers is the reigning MVP while Arizona’s Kyler Murray is one of the favorites to win it this year with his play so far this season.
The Cardinals are doing it all well this year. They have a high-flying offense, averaging more than 32 points a game, and they have the league’s No. 1 scoring defense, allowing just more than 16 points per contest. They have beaten three of last year’s playoff teams on the road already by an average of 21 points.
Both teams are missing some star power in Thursday’s game. The Packers are unlikely to have receiver Davante Adams, as he contracted COVID-19 and is on the COVID list. The Cardinals ruled out DE J.J. Watt with a shoulder injury and he now needs surgery that could end his season.
Even with those players missing, this should be a must-watch game. Since you should be watching it tonight, here is the information you need to see it, stream it or listen to it.
