The Patriots continue their playoff fight, while the Cardinals continue fighting amongst themselves.
Things haven't gone well for Kliff Kingsbury's Cardinals this season. Winning is the ultimate deodorant, but on more than one occasion some, shall we say, passionate ball discussions have broken out on the Cardinals sideline this year involving quarterback Kyler Murray: once with Kingsbury, and another with wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.
While the infighting is likely nothing more than just some competitive dudes being competitive dudes, it's something to watch as they take on the Patriots on Monday night.
The Patriots have had a little bit of drama themselves with the quarterback situation this year, but Mac Jones has firmly taken hold of the passer spot after given a run by Bailey Zappe earlier in the season. Questions about the offense have remained, but Matt Patricia's playcalling hasn't tanked the Patriots' playoff hopes.
Well, not yet.
