Seeing the injury report with so many key players questionable, namely: MCDougald, ShaqGriffin, Iffedi, Reed and Penny. I would also consider Carson following his finger injury. Should we be patching these players up for Sunday against Kansas, which is a tight game to call at full strength, and risk them missing the Cards game next week? Or could we hold them back a week?
This would almost certainly hand the Chiefs the game but could protect our chances of a final week victory. Rather than risk playing a weekend team in both games.
I know many think the Cards is a given, however so was Santa Clara last week, and injuries did us there.
Interested in people’s thoughts

Personally, I would lean towards playing anybody who would likely not aggravate an injury further and sitting everybody else.

It is hard to sit some of them though given how many key members are banged up right now. Sunday night could well be a train wreck but in my view this is the least important of our next three games.

I'm still a bit nervous about our prospects against Arizona. They've beat us three times in our house in December in the Russell Wilson era. Sure, they're not good this year, but neither are the 49ers. If I'm Pete, I don't take any chances unless it's one of the injury-plagued guys like KJ. You don't want to injure them for the playoffs, but you still have to GET to the playoffs.

Montana !!! Have no fear of the Sadinals, those wins in Seattle were against a Vet in Carson Palmer. Rosen is still to green behind the ears. Will be a replay of the 1st 49ers game in Seattle this year

Division game, any given Sunday, can knock us out, want to end year on a positive. You don't think the Cardinals have a reason to give us everything and then some? Do not take them lightly or we will be watching from the sidelines during the playoffs.
