New Orleans Saints at Arizona Cardinals: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 7 matchup
Quarterback Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals (2-4) return home after a disappointing Week 6 loss. They host Dennis Allen's New Orleans Saints (2-4).
The Cardinals faithful is getting restless after a slow start to the season. Will the recent acquisition of Robbie Anderson and the return of DeAndre Hopkins get Arizona back in a groove? Meanwhile, the banged-up Saints look to rally for a win on the road. The game is scheduled to kick off Thursday at 8:15 p.m. ET from State Farm Stadium.

Lorenzo Reyes: Saints 19, Cardinals 16
The Cardinals' offense will get a boost with DeAndre Hopkins returning from suspension and the trade for Robby Anderson, but this team struggles on third downs and in the red zone. The health of quarterback Jameis Winston will be key here. Chris Olave was held out in Week 6 despite being a full participant in practice, so I think the Saints bounce back on the road against a Cardinals team still trying to find its identity.
Safid Deen: Cardinals 20, Saints 17
The Cardinals have been frustrating this season, but get star receiver DeAndre Hopkins back from suspension. He’ll provide a spark at home Thursday night against a pesky Saints group decimated by injuries.
Lance Pugmire: Saints 24, Cardinals 17
Home has been a den of horrors for Arizona, and until the Cardinals win at home, why pick them? If the Saints get more receiving options back, it will help immensely no matter who the quarterback is.
