Cardinals vs. Saints Odds
Game Preview
The Arizona Cardinals just missed the playoffs last year, but it seems they have the quality to reach the postseason this season. Kyler Murray should have one standout season and prove his worth. After all, he got more than $230 million from the Cards.
Cards defense is significantly better than before. DE Dalvin Tomilson is here, DT Walter Nolen was the 16th pick overall, CB Will Johnson was the second-rounder, etc. So overall, Arizona has a decent team with solid experience.
The Saints, according to many, are one of the worst teams in the NFL. And that’s because they don’t have a QB. Their No. 1 quarterback will be Spencer Rattler, who started seven games last year and lost all of them, completing four touchdown passes and throwing five interceptions.
On the defensive side, things are much better, particularly after Justin Reid came from the Chiefs. DE Cameron Jordan is there, as is LB Chase Young, so they will have some influence in that aspect of the game.
Cardinals vs. Saints Head to Head
