49ers vs. Cardinals: Week 15 game time, location, TV and streaming, odds and more: Everything you need to know
In the middle of facing five "bird teams" in a row, the Cardinals seem to be the dangerous "trap" team the 49ers have to worry about after back-to-back big wins the last two weeks.

The 49ers already beat the Cardinals once this season, but Kyler Murray will be back in action and has historically given the Niners fits.
The San Francisco 49ers have beaten "bird teams" three weeks in a row, twice the Seattle Seahawks on opposite ends of knocking off the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13.
Two more fowl-related games to play for head coach Kyle Shanahan's squad, and the next will be the second of the yearly two tilts against the NFC West rivals, the 3-10 Arizona Cardinals.
The Niners already beat the red birds 35-16 way back in Week 4, yet Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray was shelved on injured reserve while recovering from last season's ACL tear, which meant now-Minnesota Vikings quarterback Josh Dobbs got the start.
And actually gave San Francisco some headaches despite the 49ers' victory.
Murray, who owns a 2-3 record against the Niners over his career, could also give some Dobbs-like fits, especially considering the very real possibility of Week 15 being a trap game for Shanahan and Co. after two emotionally charged wins with serious playoff ramifications and after clinching a playoff berth by the end of Week 14.
Niner Noise breaks down what you'll need to know for this NFC West showdown.
