Philadelphia will put its 4-0 record on the line in the desert this week against the Arizona Cardinals. The Eagles came back from 14-0 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, showing a little bit of grit. 

The Cardinals used a big second half to rally against the Carolina Panthers – getting to 2-2 on the year. Can they use that momentum to give the Eagles their first loss of the season?

Eagles vs. Cardinals Prediction and Pick

Arizona is a middle of the pack team whose record is very simple. Against teams .500 or better, the Cardinals are 0-2. Against teams that are under .500, they are 2-0. They’ll host an undefeated team this week, and I think that trend holds this week. 

The strength of this Eagles’ team is the running game, and the Cardinals are 15th in yards per carry allowed. Philly will run the ball more than Arizona has seen up to this point, however, the Eagles also can hurt the Cardinals through the air – which is a true weakness.

The Cardinals are 25th in yards per pass and 23rd in passing yards per game allowed. Philadelphia’s offense is humming right now, and the Cardinals’ defense won’t be enough to slow it down.

All they can hope for is a Kyler Murray masterclass, but that will be hard against one of the league’s best defenses.
