NFC West leaders Arizona Cardinals (5-2) is set to square off with AFC North team Cleveland Browns (2-5) as they travel to the FirstEnergy Stadium in Ohio this Sunday for a 2015 NFL season Week 8 affair.
The Cardinals have just won their Monday night match against the Baltimore Ravens, 26-18, at their home field of University of Phoenix Stadium to successfully bounce back from their loss to the Steelers the week before, via SB Nation. Arizona notched their fifth victory of the season to remain on top of the NFC West.
Meanwhile, the Browns lost badly to the Rams, 24-6, last Sunday at the Edward Jones Dome to sink at third place in the AFC North, as per Yahoo Sports. It was Cleveland's second straight defeat after their win over the cellar-dwelling Ravens in Week 5.
Quarterback Carson Palmer and running back Chris Johnson is expected to lead the charge for the Cardinals in this game after combining for three touchdowns and 397 yards in their win over Baltimore.
Prediction: Cardinals win, 35-10.
