Success breeds playing under the lights for the Arizona Cardinals.

The NFC West-leading Cardinals, winners of six in a row, had another prime-time game added to their schedule when their Week 15 matchup at the Philadelphia Eagles was shifted to a night game on NBC under the league's flexible scheduling policy. The kickoff originally was set for 1 p.m. ET.

It will mark the fifth time in an eight-game span that Arizona will play at night and give the team back-to-back prime-time appearances for the second time this season. The Cardinals are 3-0 at night, winning at Baltimore on Oct. 26 while outlasting Seattle and Cincinnati in Weeks 10 and 11. 

The Cardinals, who are 10-2 for the first time since 1948, will host the Minnesota Vikings, co-leaders of the NFC North, on Thursday night. If Arizona beats the Vikings, it will have a chance to wrap up the NFC West title with a victory in Philadelphia.
