The Arizona Cardinals hope to pick up their second straight home win and snap an eight-game home losing streak against the Los Angeles Rams.
In their attempt to pick up a win, a few players are worth watching, as their play or matchup is important.
Who are the Cardinals players to watch in Week 12?

QB Kyler Murray
Murray is a player to watch every game down the stretch because of his comeback. The Rams have been a tough opponent for him in the past. Can he elevate his teammates and the offense?
LG Carter O'Donnell
O’Donnell, assuming he is still the starting left guard, will get to face Aaron Donald, which is always a challenge. We want to see how well he holds up against him.
LBs Josh Woods, Krys Barnes
With Kyzir White out for the rest of the season, Woods is now the Mike linebacker and Barnes will now get significant playing time. Last time the Cardinals and Rams played, Kyren Williams ran all over them in the second half. Williams returns from injured reserve this week.
CB Garrett Williams
Williams will get a tough task covering Cooper Kupp or Puka Nacua when they line up in the slot.
LB BJ Ojulari
Ojulari is the most naturally gifted edge defender the Cardinals have, which is why they drafted him in the second round this year. He has four sacks in the last four games, finally coming on and producing. Can he continue it?
