Prediction: 

The Cardinals look to start a winning streak after dropping 2 of their last 3 at home. Carson Palmer’s return may give this offense, which has been stagnant for most of the season, some extra juice.

Palmer isn’t expected to go back to being the player he was last season, but should look good against a weak Jets secondary. The defense needs to make Fitzpatrick uncomfortable, create stops on third down and force turnover.

The Jets have been struggling and the Cardinals need to build some momentum before a pivotal divisional match up with the Seattle Seahawks next week.
