What to Know
The Arizona Cardinals have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They will hit the road for the second straight week as they head to Soldier Field at 1 p.m. ET next Sunday. Both teams come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous games.
Arizona was able to grind out a solid victory over the Seattle Seahawks last week, winning 23-13. The Cardinals relied on the efforts of TE Zach Ertz, who caught eight passes for two TDs and 88 yards, and QB Colt McCoy, who passed for two TDs and 328 yards on 44 attempts. That was the first 300+ yard effort for McCoy this season.
As for the Chicago Bears, they can’t say they have nothing to be thankful for this Thanksgiving week. On Thursday, they narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Detroit Lions 16-14. Having forecasted a close victory for Chicago, the oddsmakers were right on the money. No one had a standout game offensively for Chicago, but TE Jimmy Graham led the way with one touchdown. QB Andy Dalton ended up with a passer rating of 133.10.
Most of the squad’s points came courtesy of special teams, which contributed ten. K Cairo Santos delivered a perfect 3-for-3 game.
Arizona is now 9-2 while Chicago sits at 4-7. Two offensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: The Cardinals rank second in the league when it comes to rushing touchdowns, with 17 on the season. Less enviably, the Bears are stumbling into the contest with the fewest passing touchdowns in the NFL, having accrued only eight on the season.
