Cardinals at Patriots: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Cardinals 30, Patriots 23

Money line (?)

The Cardinals have no problem moving the football and scoring points offensively. There is no individual matchup where the Patriots really have an advantage. New England will be able to have some success running the ball, but if Arizona builds a lead, the Pats will have to rely on the passing game. The Cardinals, coming off a disappointing loss against the Seahawks, are extra rested. Take the CARDINALS -125.

Against the spread (?)

Arizona is 5-5 ATS this season and New England is 4-6 ATS. But a 1.5-point spread is too small to go with the Pats if you think the Cardinals will win outright. You can’t reasonably predict a one-point win. Take the CARDINALS -1.5 (-110).

Over/Under (?)

The total is low for a Cardinals game, even though they are 3-7 O/U this season. The total in their games has gone Over in three of their last four contests. The Cardinals have been consistently hitting 30 points and I expect nothing less. Take OVER 49.5 (-110).
