In what was the game of the year in Week 14 for the Cardinals against the Seahawks, the Cardinals fell short. The hopes of the division title and playoffs were quickly derailed in that matchup. Meanwhile, the Patriots are coming off their bye week and looking to notch a victory here against the Cardinals. Here are the Patriots at Cardinals Preview and Predictions.
Despite coming off their bye week, the Patriots have several questionable tags including their young stud cornerback Christian Gonzalez. Additionally, the status of Kyle Dugger and guard Cole Strange are unknown for this game. Meanwhile, the Cardinals will be without running back Emari Demercado and cornerback Elijah Jones.

Best Bets
You have to wonder what the mindset is for the Cardinals after coming off a “dream-crushing” loss against the Seahawks. The Week 14 matchup had huge division implications for the Cardinals and unfortunately, barring a miracle, those hopes have dimensioned. Meanwhile, the Patriots are coming off their bye week and look to build momentum and figure out the roster construction for the future.
Since 2020, when the Cardinals are a home favorite, they are just 8-11 SU and 6-13 ATS. I question the motivation and mindset for the Cardinals in this game and will gladly take the points with the road team.
Best Bet: Patriots +6
Player Prop Best Bet
Drake Maye Over 27.5 Rushing Yards
Since Drake Maye has taken over as the quarterback for the Patriots he has added the dimension of a scrambling quarterback to the offense. That’s something the Patriots haven’t had a quite some time. Maye has not been a stranger to running with the football. Maye has rushed for more than 27 yards in four starts this season. Despite the Cardinals not allowing a lot of rushing yards to the quarterback position, they haven’t seen a scrambling quarterback a lot this season.
