Pre-Game:
The Cardinals and Saints have a very similar offensive and defensive game, but the Saints are probably 2-up on the offensive side and 1-down on the defensive side. The Cardinals had a complete offensive showdown last weekend against the Packers, beating them 51-45 and breaking virtually every offensive playoff record. We will see if the Saints follow suit.
Arizona Cardinals:
The Cardinals didn’t have a great year, but they played in a crappy division which led them to win their division with a 10-6 record. However, Kurt Warner is still under center and anything can happen with a veteran quarterback like him. Just look at last season for example when Warner led the Cardinals to the Super Bowl. Only time will tell if Kurt can do it again this year!
New Orleans Saints:
Although the Saints have lost their last 3 games of the season after starting 13-0, they still have the #1 offense in the NFL. Just look at their impressive stats above! New Orleans clinched home field advantage throughout the playoffs, and unlike most teams having a first round bye which I think hurts them, the Saints desperately needed a bye week to regroup their team and football strategy. The Saints should have their batteries rejuvenated and will be firing on all cylinders.
Arizona Cardinals vs New Orleans Saints Chargers Prediction:
Get ready for another offensive showdown with the Cardinals and Saints. Or at least that is what most people think and the best betting sites, especially after what they saw last week with the Packers. Now, don’t get me wrong that could easily happen again this week in this game, and it wouldn’t even surprise me if Arizona and New Orleans broke all of last weeks offensive records in this game. The Saints have a more prolific offense than that of the Packers, and a worse defense than that of Green Bay. However, the team with the better defense will win this game and I am predicting the Saints are going to show up on that side of the football. Saints beat the Cardinals and point spread in a surprisingly defensive battle and lower scoring game.
