After looking like legitimate Super Bowl contenders for the first half of last season, the Arizona Cardinals are hoping to stretch that form out for an entire year in 2022.
If you don’t have cable and you live in the Cardinals market, you can watch a live stream of every televised game (one game will stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video) on FuboTV or DirecTV Stream, which both include CBS, Fox, NBC and ESPN and come with a free trial.
Those are the two best options if you’re cutting cable, but there are some other alternatives, including some for out-of-market viewers, so here’s a full guide on the different ways to watch Cardinals games streaming live online in 2022:

Arizona Cardinals 2022 Season Preview
Star quarterback Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals looked like one of the teams to beat in the NFC last season before faltering in the playoffs.
The Cardinals’ promising season went thud in the Wild Card Round, 34-11, against the eventual Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. Arizona will get two shots at the Rams in NFC West Division play this season in a quest to get back to the playoffs and make a stronger postseason run.
Arizona also returns plenty of talent around Murray to maximize the young quarterback’s strengths. The Cardinals also made offseason moves to improve the roster, but this year’ squad will face one thing that couldn’t be improved — playing in the toughest division in football.
The NFC West alone could make it challenging for the Cardinals to realize their season goals. While the Rams return most of their key players from last season’s Super Bowl run, the San Francisco 49ers also return a solid core of key players after reaching the NFC Championship Game. The Seattle Seahawks look like a team in rebuild mode with quarterback Russell Wilson off to Denver, but head coach Pete Carroll’s long familiarity with the 49ers, Rams, and Cardinals could mix things up in a competitive division a little.
Missing star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins due to a 6-game suspension could also hinder the Cardinals. How much it will impact Arizona will likely hinge on how Murray adapts.
Offensive Outlook
Murray has plenty of strong skill players to work with this season, including the first six games when Hopkins sits.
The Cardinals acquired wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, who could add to the passing game this season. Fellow receiver A.J. Green should be a threat again, and receiver Ronalde Moore can make plays.
Arizona tight end Zach Ertz returns after a solid 11 games with the Cardinals in 2021. He joined the team part way through the 2021 season via a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles.
The Cardinals added more depth at tight end with Trey McBride in the draft. McBride could become an instant success for the Cardinals after a stellar collegiate career at Colorado State.
Murray also has a solid run game support with running back James Conner. The veteran back rushed for 752 yards and 15 touchdowns in 2021.
Arizona also has stability at offensive line with most of last year’s starters back.
Defensive Outlook
Arizona has a solid defense and added talent through the draft.
Rookies Cameron Thomas, Jesse Luketa, Myjai Sanders, and could all contribute this year. Former draft picks Isaiah Simmons and Zaven Collins will need to step up among the linebackers.
The Cardinals also a talented veteran on the defensive line in J.J. Watt.
Special Teams
Arizona has a quality kicker in Matt Prater, and punter Andy Lee can help with the field position game. Greg Dortch will handle the kick and punt return duties.
