Can these Thursday night games get any worse? Last week’s barn burner was between the Commanders and the Bear. Unwatchable until the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter. At least there was some drama at the end on the last play of the game. Commanders hold at the call line on a catch that in real time looked like a TD. Commanders escape with a win despite another terrible performance from their QB. He just looks bad.
Arizona is a home 2.5 point favourite after scoring 9 points in Seattle Sunday. The Saints D couldn’t keep up with the Bengals receivers last week, but I think the Saints are going to be able to score some points against a disappointing Cardinals defence. I’m a little nervous about the return of Hopkins, but I can’t imagine that one guy back in the receivers rooms is going to cure Arizona of its offensive woes. They still have Kliff Klingsbury calling the plays, right? That ain’t good. Still nervous though. Going to take the Saints and the 2.5 points, just don’t call it a comeback after that beat down we took last week.
Thursday night record: 2-4
