3 Bold Predictions: Arizona Cardinals vs. Los Angeles Rams – Week 14
By Sion Fawkes
Cardinals join Stafford’s pick-six party
Matthew Stafford put on a clinic last week against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Keyword: the Jacksonville Jaguars. And while the Jaguars had a few good defensive outings this season, they were no match for the experienced Stafford and gave up 37 points in the process.
The Cardinals’ defense is a bit better equipped to handle Stafford, evidenced by their four-interception outing against Andy Dalton’s Bears. Two of which nearly became pick-sixes, including Zach Allen’s first career interception.
In the three games proceeding the Jaguars’ outing, Stafford’s TD to INT ratio sat at 5 to 5. Not that the Cardinals will pick him off as often as they picked off Dalton. But given Stafford’s recent history regarding turnovers, look for someone in the Cardinals’ secondary to record a pick-six.
Now the question remains: Who will record the pick-six? I’m going to be ultra-bold and predict the honor will go to Marco Wilson.
