The Arizona Cardinals (8-7) are fortunate to be in the position that they are in right now as they still control their playoff destiny despite losing to the CJ Beathard-led 49ers last weekend.
If they defeat the Rams (9-6) on Sunday, they will clinch a playoff berth. If they lose, their season is over. If the Bears lose to the Packers but the Cardinals and Rams tie, both NFC West teams will advance to the playoffs.
What is very interesting about their up-and-down season is the fact that they faced many teams that were without some of their top players.
