Arizona Cardinals: 5 bold predictions vs New York Jets
By Scott Allen
The Cardinals will defeat the Jets 31-21
The Cardinals will score no doubt. It will be a matter of how much will they give up. Although they will likely grab some turnovers, they still give up big plays from time to time.
Despite the inability of Fitzpatrick at times, he can still generate some offense as well. He also has running back Matt Forte available.
In the end, a national television audience, a home crowd hungry to see a win by the Cardinals at home and a team hungry to win at home, the Cardinals should come away with the victory.
It will be a nice lead in to Sunday Night Football next week against the Seattle Seahawks, whom the Cardinals haven’t defeated at home since 2012.
For now though, the important thing is to continue the winning streak against the Jets. Last week’s game was a must win and so is this one. It is a must if they want to stay with the rest of the NFC competition.
