The Arizona Cardinals have won two straight games and have moved up in the latest power rankings from USA TODAY. However, because their two wins in a row come against struggling teams, the move is not by much.
They are ranked 26th this week, moving up two spots from last week.
Look who’s on a mini win streak. However most compelling angle around this team now is whether they’ll trade reinstated Patrick Peterson.
The Cardinals’ only two wins have come against the 31st-ranked Bengals and 29th-ranked Falcons. Their next game in Week 7 is against the New York Giants, ranked just ahead of Arizona at No. 25.
A third win in a row should move them up some more.
As for the rest of the NFC West, the L.A. Rams fell from 15th to 18th overall, the Seattle Seahawks climbed from No. 11 to No. 8, while the San Francisco 49ers have climbed into the top five, coming in at No. 4.
