The Arizona Cardinals get a Sunday afternoon home game in over a month on Sunday as they host the Jacksonville Jaguars

The Arizona Cardinals (4-6) get back home on Sunday to face the AFC South’s Jacksonville Jaguars (7-3).  This will be the first ever visit for the Jaguars to University of Phoenix Stadium, with their last visit to the Valley of the Sun in 2005 at Sun Devil Stadium.

The Cardinals will go with Blaine Gabbert again at quarterback.  He played well enough last week in a 31-21 loss to the Houston Texans to warrant another start.

Gabbert will be playing against the team that drafted him in 2011.  He played for the Jags from 2011-2013.

This is the first of three consecutive home games for the Cardinals.  It is also the first Sunday afternoon home game since October 15th.  That was Cardinals running back Adrian Peterson’s debut with the team.

Key matchups/players

A lot of people are very excited to see former Cardinals and now Jaguars defensive end Calais Campbell return to Arizona for the first time against the team he spent nine seasons with.  Campbell is having a career year.

The Cardinals offensive line could have trouble against not only Campbell, who has 11.5 sacks this season, one shy of their franchise record, but they also have to deal with guys like defensive ends Yannick Ngakoue (9 sacks) and Dante Fowler Jr (6.5 sacks). That doesn’t sound like a fun day for the Cardinals.

The other thing many want to see is the follow up performance by Gabbert.  He threw three touchdowns last week, including two to tight end Ricky Seals-Jones.  Will the two be able to hook up again on Sunday in Glendale?
