The Cardinals often get a Thursday night game against the Niners. After proving to be one of San Francisco’s toughest opponents last year, the rivalry could be returning. Kyler Murray against the 49ers would be fun to watch for the entire nation.

Murray vs. Russell Wilson will be a great matchup for years to come. Since the Cardinals seem to have the Seahawks’ number in Seattle and the Cardinals haven’t won against them at home since Wilson’s NFL debut, it is always a good matchup.

If the Cardinals can be the exciting contender many believe they can be, going against a team that is frequently on national television, this will be a fun matchup. Kyler vs. Dak Prescott, Kyler Murray can meet with his former teammate CeeDee Lamb. If both offenses are as good as they can be, there could be lots of points and lots of highlights.
