Our Commanders vs Cardinals pick is over 50.5 points and an Arizona victory.

Jayden Daniels has played the best football of all the rookie quarterbacks this year. That is the main reason why the Commanders sit at two wins and one loss.

The Cardinals have a less impressive 1-2 record, but we can’t say they haven’t played well. Simply put, their schedule has been rather rough, including the favorites for the NFL Super Bowl this season.

Commanders vs. Cardinals Head-to-Head Stats

The Commanders have a big advantage in the all-time series, holding a 77-47-2 record over Arizona. Washington defeated the Cardinals in three of their last four matchups.

Before Betting

Jayden Daniels looked excellent in Cincinnati on Monday night. His Commanders won 38-33, and the young quarterback had 254 passing yards with two touchdowns. He also ran 39 yards for an additional score, doing his job perfectly. Not to mention that he completed an incredible 21 of his 23 passes. He is the frontrunner for the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award.

Terry McLaurin had 100 receiving yards and a TD in four receptions, including a 55-yard play. Veteran RB Austin Ekeler returned a punt for 62 yards, marking a perfect offensive night for the Commanders.

The Arizona Cardinals didn’t have such a positive experience against the Lions. They were battling Detroit, but didn’t have the power to do anything more. The main problem for the Cardinals was the running game. If we exclude Kyler Murray, Arizona had only 32 rushing yards. And it’s tough to beat the Lions with those stats.

Rookie WR Marvin Harrison Jr. had one TD catch and 64 yards on five receptions, while Michael Wilson had eight receptions for the same number of receiving yards.

Commanders vs. Cardinals Prediction

These two teams play offensive-minded football. Their defensive units aren’t as gifted, so we expect to see a high number of points in this clash – over 50.5. Arizona has a good chance of bouncing back if they can slow down Jayden Daniels.
