New Orleans Saints (2-5) at Arizona Cardinals (3-4), Cardinals win 42-34

The New Orleans Saints dropped 42-34 to the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., after committing three first-half turnovers, two of which ended in pick-sixes. Arizona scored two touchdowns in the second half for the first time in almost five years to score more than 40 points.

Especially with Hopkins back in the mix, with an impressive debut with 10 grabs and over 100 yards, the Cardinals appear to have regained their swagger back.

Packers (3-3) at Commanders (2-4), 1 p.m.: 

Last week, the Packers and Commanders totaled for 492 yards and 22 scores. So, these two offenders are in some danger. Green Bay’s defense has been dreadful against the running game this season, allowing 135 yards per game. This includes 179 yards against the Jets last week in a 27-10 home loss.

This could be the week that Aaron Rodgers and the Packer’s offense gets their groove back.
