The Arizona Cardinals are set to face off against the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Divisional Playoffs on Saturday night. What five bold predictions can be made for the game and what should fans be on the lookout for throughout the game?
1. Carson Palmer Torches the Green Bay Defense Again for 300 Yards, Three Touchdowns
During the regular season matchup with the Packers, Carson Palmer put up a big game and that will happen once again. Palmer will throw for at least 300 yards and three touchdowns throughout the game. Green Bay has a solid offense, but with Sam Shields still in concussion protocol and a young secondary set to play this week, Palmer should have a chance to put up huge numbers.
2. Aaron Rodgers Puts Up a Huge Game and the Offense Returns
Last week against the Washington Redskins, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers' offense showed signs of returning to dynamic form. It was a huge sight for the fans and they will continue playing well this week. If the Green Bay offensive line can protect Rodgers, there is absolutely nothing stopping them from shocking the league and pulling off an upset on the road.
3. Arizona Scores at Least One Special Teams Touchdown
There is no question that the Cardinals have the potential to break off a huge special teams play at any moment during a game. They have a lot of playmakers in that area and are going to break off at least one big play for a touchdown on special teams this week. Whether it is a punt return or a kick return, the Cardinals have the potential to make a big play and gain a lot of momentum with a special teams touchdown.
4. Green Bay Forces at Least Three Turnovers
One way that the Packers can knock off the Cardinals is by forcing turnovers and making plays defensively. Green Bay has the defensive playmakers to make things happen, especially if Sam Shields is able to play. Even if he is not, the Packers will force at least three turnovers throughout the course of the game and will keep themselves in the game and have a chance to win it.
5. The Packers Catch Fire and Pull Off a Shocking Victory
Not many media members or fans are giving the Packers much of a chance to knock off the Cardinals on the road this week. It certainly won't be easy, but Rodgers and the Packers have shocked many teams before. During their Super Bowl run a few years back they pulled off some huge road wins and they will pick up another win and shock the NFL on Saturday night.
