Cardinals face elimination from NFC playoff contention in Week 15

The Arizona Cardinals were eliminated from NFC West title contention last weekend and now, in Week 15, face complete elimination from NFC playoff contention.

Entering Thursday, there were five scenarios in Week 15 that would eliminate the Cardinals from playoff contention. Three of them involved the Seattle Seahawks winning.

Since the Seahawks lost to the San Francisco 49ers 21-13 Thursday night, those scenarios no longer matter.

Two remain to eliminate the Cardinals from playoff contention.

Cardinals’ Week 15 playoff elimination scenarios

The Cardinals will be eliminated from playoff contention if:

  • They lose to the Denver Broncos
  • They tie the Broncos and the Giants and Commanders tie their game (that happened once two weeks ago)
