The Arizona Cardinals (10-2) are coming from a 27-3 win over the St. Louis Rams.

“That’s going to be new to me”, he said.
“The grind of starting a game plan this soon after a game is really tough on the players sometimes”, he said, “so it’s just mentally and physically a grind right now for the next 48 hours”.
From what Minnesota Vikings coach Mike Zimmer sees of Carson Palmer, he thinks the Arizona Cardinals quarterback should be considered for the NFL MVP. “You’ve got to get as much film in as you can, get your body ready, get out there and be ready to perform”. After a punt set the visitors up at their own 40, the Cardinals used chunk yardage plays to quickly move into St. Louis territory. “Coach told me we’re going to get these two for you”, Fitzgerald stated.
The Cardinals got on the board first with a touchdown on the game’s opening drive.
I previewed last Sunday’s game when Minnesota hosted Seattle as they searched for a statement win to validate their credentials as serious Super Bowl contenders but were left floundering on the wrong side of a lop-sided 38-7 defeat.
“But Seattle’s playing extremely well right now, especially offensively”, Arians said. Let us know in the comment box below! All of them are dealing with injuries, and there’s not a lot of evidence suggesting Smith, Barr and Joseph will play Thursday night. It’s hard on the players to play a game so soon, but since it has to be done, the Cards are in as good a shape as can be to perform under the lights.
They say that winning is the most important statistic, and Palmer has plenty of that as well. The game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and takes place from Edward Jones Dome in St Louis, Missouri. It’s a third full. With the game out of reach late, back up quarterback Drew Stanton took over the offense to close things out. The lights are weird. For just a moment, it looked like the Rams had a flicker of a chance to make this a wire-to-wire game. Arizona has the league’s highest scoring offense and is riding a winning streak of six games.
Quarterback Nick Foles completed only 15 of 35 passes for 146 yards with an interception, while running back Todd Gurley managed 41 yards on nine rushes.
They entered NFL Week 13 with the league’s top-ranked offense and the fifth-ranked defense while also leading the NFL in points scored. The Rams had only 82 yards and three first downs in the first half. Its third-ranked offensive passing game will face the sixth-ranked pass defense of Minnesota, while its eighth-ranked pass defense will look to limit the 31st-ranked aerial attack of the Vikings. “When my number was called, when they needed me, I just did what I was coached to do”.
“With every play that doesn’t score or doesn’t go for four-plus yards in the run game, we’re harped on”, Palmer said. “We’re very focused on that and we understand all the circumstances around us”.
The Arizona Cardinals and Minnesota Vikings square off in a huge game on Thursday night.
Arizona is 1-5 SU in its last 6 games when playing Minnesota.

Minnesota is bang in the race for the NFC North title, level on an 8-4 record with the Green Bay Packers, but it has come mainly thanks to their ground game and defence, and you fear for their chances if Arizona forges ahead early on and Bridgewater has to pass the ball more.
