The Arizona Cardinals are preparing for their upcoming game against the New York Jets at State Farm Stadium on Sunday. The match is scheduled for 2:25 p.m., with the Cardinals favored by one point according to BetMGM.

A significant focus has been placed on the Cardinals' defense, which has shown remarkable performance recently. Paul Calvisi highlighted that the team has not allowed a touchdown in two of their last three games and is currently allowing only 17 points per game during their winning streak. This defensive strength includes a top-five rush defense over recent weeks.

On offense, Kyler Murray's ability to throw while on the move will be crucial against the Jets, who have excelled in pressuring quarterbacks this season. Craig Grialou noted that Murray leads in passer rating when throwing on the run and ranks third in completion percentage, making him a key player for Sunday's game.

The outcome of this match could influence how the Cardinals approach their bye week, which follows immediately after. Coach Jonathan Gannon emphasized that a win would bolster team confidence as they prepare for future games against division rivals like the Seahawks. Offensive coordinator Drew Petzing humorously remarked that victories make bye weeks more enjoyable.
