The Arizona Cardinals face the Detroit Lions on Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Week 3. While there was a time that the Cardinals dominated the Lions, that has not been the case in recent seasons.
From 2006-2015, the Cardinals won seven straight games against the Lions.
They haven’t beaten them since then.
The Lions are 4-0-1 in the last 5 meetings. Quarterback Kyler Murray has not beaten the Lions yet in his career. The closest he came was his NFL debut, when he rallied the Cardinals from 18 points down to finish in a tie.
The Lions lead the all-time series 35-28-6 in a rivalry that dates back to 1930.
The last time the two teams played, the Lions beat Arizona 30-12 in 2021 behind three Jared Goff TD passes.
