The Arizona Cardinals are ready for a big road test this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
It will be the fourth game of the season started by Kyler Murray after he spent the first nine weeks recovering from ACL surgery.
Murray is one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in football and has an elite skill set.
But, he has yet to show he can win in the playoffs.
There will be no playoffs this year for the Cardinals, but they still have things to build on over the last month.
One of Murray’s former Cardinals teammates is Steelers cornerback Patrick Peterson.
Peterson has high praise for Murray before they square off on Sunday.
According to Brooke Pryor, Peterson said, “It looks like he’s starting to get back in his old ways … it looks like he’s starting to get back into his groove.”

The Steelers are the better team, they are playing at home, and they should win.
But, do not be surprised if this game is closer than people expect due to Murray.
Most of the pressure will be on the Steelers defense to keep the game low-scoring.
That is the only way they have shown they can win this year.
