The Arizona Cardinals lost their 3rd consecutive game and dropped to 6-6 on the season after being defeated by the Los Angeles Rams, 38-28, this past Sunday. Arizona had no answers for Jeff Goff and the Rams offense and couldn’t fight back after a 38-yard TD run by Darrell Henderson Jr. gave the Rams a 31-21 lead with 10:07 left in regulation. Arizona was outgained by Los Angeles by a 463-232 margin and lost the turnover battle by a 2-1 margin in the loss. Leading the way for the Cardinals was QB Kyler Murray who completed 21 of 39 passes for 173 yards, 3 TD, & 1 INT.

The New York Giants won their 4th straight game and improved to 5-7 on the season after upsetting the Seattle Seahawks, 17-12, this past Sunday. New York was incredible defensively against the high-powered Seattle offense and could not fight back after a 6-yard TD reception by Alfred Morris gave the Giants a 14-5 lead late in the 3rd quarter. New York was outgained by Seattle by a 327-290 margin, however, won the turnover battle by a 2-1 margin in the victory. Leading the way for the Giants was RB Wayne Gallman who had 16 carries for 135 rushing yards.

QB Daniel Jones (63.2 Comp %, 2,335 yards, 8 TD, 9 INT) missed last week due to injury and is questionable for this matchup. Replacing him last week was Colt McCoy who completed 13 of 22 passes for 1 TD & 1 INT. the top receiving threats for the Giants have been Darius Slayton (39 rec, 598 yards, 3 TD), Evan Engram (48 rec, 508 yards, TD), & Sterling Shepard (42 rec, 381 yards, TD).

The Cardinals are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and 9-4-2 ATS in their last 15 road games. The Giants are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
These two team have been heading in different directions as of late, however, as much as I’m solid on the Giants defense, I just can’t trust and offense that is led by Colt McCoy & Wayne Gallman. Arizona is almost in a must-win game after dropping their last three and as they have enough offensive weapons to put up points against the Giants, I think the play here is to take Arizona to cover this small road spread. Good Luck!
