Giants vs Cardinals Prediction
The Cardinals have come back to earth these last couple of weeks, and now they’re flying across the country for an early start with a team on a West Coast body clock. I get the Giants are down to their backup quarterback, but you can win games here and there with Winston. He just showed it.
The Giants’ defense has also been impressive, and you’re still kind of waiting for Brissett to turn into a pumpkin a bit. Watch that completion percentage drop a bit with a turnover or two. It’s coming eventually. I’ll grab the points in a game the Giants could win outright.
