New Orleans Saints at Arizona Cardinals

Location
State Farm Stadium, Glendale, Arizona

Coming into the season, this matchup between the Cardinals and Saints was one that NFL fans will have had circled on their viewing schedule. However, things have not quite played out the way we expected.

The Cardinals have gone from a playoff team in 2021 to sitting at the bottom of the NFC West. However, with all four teams struggling, the Cardinals are just one win out of first place through six weeks.

The story is similar for the Saints in the NFC South. With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Atlanta Falcons atop the division with a 3-3 record, the Saints are just one game out of first place in their division. Equally, they are just one game ahead of the Carolina Panthers, who sit at the bottom of the division.

Those records underline just how important this Week 7 Thursday Night Football game tonight is. A win will keep both teams very much in touch with the top spot in the division. Meanwhile, a loss could see them staring down a two-game deficit heading into Week 8.

While it is too early for this to be a make-or-break game, it could have huge ramifications further down the line.

Both teams have struggled on defense this year as they sit among the top five in terms of scoring percentage allowed. The Cardinals allow opponents to score on 45 percent of their drives, while the Saints are narrowly behind them at 43.7 points.

If both offenses can find their groove, this could end up being a reasonably high-scoring game. However, each team enters the game with injury concerns at WR. While the Cardinals will get back DeAndre Hopkins, they will be without Marquise Brown. Meanwhile, the Saints will be without both Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry for the second-straight week.
