GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- Leave it to Arizona cornerback Jerraud Powers to succinctly explain the playoff significance of Sunday's Packers-Cardinals game.
''It's either do you want Green Bay to come back here and play (in the playoffs) or - I think today it was 17 degrees up there - do you want to go up there and play?'' he said. ''I'm from Alabama. If that's not enough motivation I don't know what is.''
A victory for the Cardinals (12-2) over the Packers (10-4) would clinch at least the No. 2 seed in the NFC and the first-round bye that comes with it.
