Sunday’s matchup between the Arizona Cardinals and Denver Broncos gives us a final chance to see these teams before the regular season, although both will be without their starting quarterbacks and key starters.
That has our Cardinals vs. Broncos predictions anticipating a low-scoring affair in our latest NFL picks for August 25.
Cardinals vs Broncos prediction
My best bet
Under 33.5 (-105 at FanDuel)
My analysis
It’s been a pleasing summer for the Denver Broncos, who have seen rookie Bo Nix cement himself as the team’s starter. This year’s 12th overall pick has played lights-out during the preseason at camp and locked down that starting spot. However, that means that he will sit out Saturday's preseason finale versus the Arizona Cardinals.
Without Nix, the team has managed just one passing touchdown from Zach Wilson, while Jarrett Stidham has tossed two interceptions and has yet to throw for any scores.
The Cardinals will also continue to sit Kyler Murray, who has yet to play a single snap this preseason. That means their snaps will be split between Clayton Tune and Desmond Ridder, with Tune expected to start. Those two have failed to get this offense going through two games, sporting just one TD pass altogether.
