White – the heart and soul of Arizona’s front seven – was vocal after the team’s upset victory over the San Francisco 49ers last week.

“Yeah, terrible performance last week. We put that on the back burner, used it as fuel, and came out here against the Super Bowl contender, multiple NFC championship team. We came out here and we battled. We got punched in the mouth at times, but we kept punching back and ultimately came out withthe win. Definitely proud of my guys and I feel like it could still be a lot better.”

White and the rest of Arizona’s defense hoped to put on a similar performance this week in Green Bay, though the Packers have moved the ball fairly well on the Cardinals defense. At the time of publish, the Cardinals trail 17-0 in the second quarter.
