The Arizona Cardinals are 7-7 and in third place in the NFC West, behind both the 8-6 Los Angeles Rams and 8-6 Seattle Seahawks. The Cardinals hope to improve to 8-7 with a win on the road over the Carolina Panthers.
They could use some help this week in Week 16.
The Rams are on the road against the New York Jets. A Cardinals win and Rams loss move the Cardinals ahead of them before they play each other on Saturday in Week 17.
The Seahawks are at home against the 12-2 Minnesota Vikings.
If the Rams and Seahawks lose, and the Cardinals bet the Panthers, all three will be 8-7. Seattle will hold the tiebreaker over the other two for the moment.
So in Week 16, Cardinals fans should be big fans of Aaron Rodgers and the Jets, as well as Sam Darnold and the Vikings.
