The Arizona Cardinals have clinched themselves a playoff spot, but with positioning still yet to be determined, you can expect them to go all out when they visit the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday. The Cards can take solace in the fact that they are 4-1 SU and 4-0-1 ATS in their past five games against Philly.
The Cardinals have won seven consecutive games with an average scoring margin of +9.2 points. Carson Palmer has been lighting it up during that span as he has thrown 17 touchdowns to eight different receivers while only throwing four interceptions.
The Eagles are coming off back-to-back wins for the first time since Week 7 as they have victories over the New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills in the past two weeks. Sam Bradford has surprisingly done very well at protecting the ball with just one interception in the past four games.
