Today at 4:25 p.m. ET, the Arizona Cardinals (8-5) and Tennessee Titans (5-8) go head-to-head live from LP Field in Tennessee. The game can be live streamed here. Arizona fans can hear all of the action on KTAR 92.3 while Tennessee fans can do the same on 104.5 The Zone.
Arizona enters play looking for its sixth win in seven games while trying to hunt down an NFC wild-card spot while Tennessee is trying to avoid the franchise's worst home skid in 17 years.
Working through a sore right elbow, Carson Palmer threw for 269 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 30-10 win over the St. Louis Rams last week and is 301-for-468 (64.3%) for 3,458 yards with 20 touchdowns and 17 interceptions.
"[Trainer] Tom Reed and his staff, they are the best in the business," Palmer told ESPN. "He had a plan from Monday on, and he stuck to it. I had 100 percent faith and trust in him that he knew what he was doing and that he and his staff would have me ready to play."
Coach Bruce Arians was happy with Palmer's production.
"We throw it where they will let us throw it," Arians said per ESPN. "Carson was spot on it."
The Cardinals are one game behind the San Francisco 49ers and Carolina Panthers in the wild-card race and own a tie-breaker over the Panthers.
Larry Fitzgerald has been a favorite target of Palmer, hauling in 67 receptions for 774 yards with 10 scores.
The Titans, meanwhile, are hoping to avoid dropping five straight home games for the first time since 1996 and are 2-7 in their last nine following last Sunday's loss to the Denver Broncos by a score of 51-28. The Titans aren't mathematically eliminated from playoff contention yet, but need to turn it around soon if they have any chance of making it.
The Titans have the daunting task of trying to keep pace while quarterback Jake Locker is sidelined.
"Look at any team that's lost their quarterback, it's hard," said coach Mike Munchak, according to ESPN. "It creates issues when you have to make that change."
Ryan Fitzpatrick has thrown for two touchdowns and four picks over the last two weeks and is 149-for-242 (61.6%) for 1,705 yards with nine scores and eight interceptions this season.
Running back Chris Johnson is rushing for a career-low average of 3.8 yards per carry and has 217 rushing attempts for 820 yards with five scores.
Arizona looks for its sixth win in seven games while Tennessee tries to avoid yet another home loss when the teams take the field today in Tennessee.
