Cardinals vs Packers Prediction
The Cardinals are free-falling and not a team I’m excited to back right now. The Cardinals aren’t producing to their potential offensively, the defense gets gashed through the air, and Murray remains questionable with a foot injury. On paper the Packers are one of the best teams in the league as they’re a balanced attack and top-10 in scoring offense, total offense, scoring defense and total defense.
We have a team that’s looking more and more like a title contender against a team that can’t get out of its own way and has a banged up quarterback. You could argue the Packers should be larger favorites. Give me the road team by a touchdown.
