The Cardinals have entered their bye week and will be, for the most part, off until next week. They are coming off their fifth consecutive loss. Despite losing 27-23 at home on Sunday to the Green Bay Packers, the Cardinals did not fall in the latest NFL power rankings for Week 8 by USA TODAY's Nate Davis.
The Packers overcame adversity and a poor first half to beat the Cardinals and show the kind of toughness they will need to make a deep playoff run.
The toll of losing quickly adds up in the NFL - and the Cardinals have endured quite the suffering stretch of football after their 2-0 start. Arizona is just the second team in NFL history to have lost five games in a row by a combined 13 points.
