WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va. – NFL teams are sticklers for routine, and after Sunday’s 42-17 throttling of the Lions, the Cardinals likely would have welcomed the status quo this week.
That went out the window mere hours after the game in Detroit, when their plane flew east instead of on a return course to Phoenix. The Cardinals arrived at The Greenbrier Resort on Sunday night, a place they will stay through Friday before heading to Pittsburgh for their Week 6 matchup with the Steelers.
The Cardinals requested back-to-back East coast trips once they saw the scheduled road games specifically to do this.
