Falcons at Cardinals
Kickoff: 4:05 p.m., State Farm Stadium, Glendale, Ariz.
TV: Fox 5
Records: Falcons 5-9; Cardinals 3-11
Line: Falcons -3
Outlook: This is one of the few games on the NFL schedule that has no impact on playoff seeding but it includes a team that’s vying for the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. The Falcons (5-9) are playing for pride and possibly for head coach Raheem Morris to keep his job next season.
