Arizona Cardinals at New York Football Betting

The Giants are coming off their first loss of the NFL betting season a week ago against the Saints so it will be interesting to see how they bounce back against last year’s NFC Champs.

Football betting trends show that the Giants have won six of the last eight meetings against the Cardinals. The key in this game will be for the Cardinals to protect quarterback Kurt Warner. When he gets time to throw the Cardinals are very tough to beat. One stat to watch in this football betting matchup is whether or not New York defensive end Justin Tuck gets a sack. The Giants are 15-3 when he records a sack in a football betting game.

The Cardinals are playing well having routed the Seattle Seahawks last week in NFL betting but they are trying not to get overconfident. “We have so much more football to play,” running back Tim Hightower said. “The journey is just beginning. But we’re playing better and that’s all that matters right now.” The Cardinals are 2-0 on the road for the first time since 1991. Arizona is taking things one week at a time. “It’s only Week 6,” wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald said. “We’ve got a long way to go. Come back to me in six weeks and I’ll have a better answer.”

Another football betting trend to watch in this game involved New York quarterback Eli Manning. The Giants are only 25-24 when Manning throws at least one interception and 22-6 when he doesn't throw any. Last week the Giants allowed 493 yards to New Orleans but they are still #1 in the league, allowing only 257.7 yards a game.

Arizona has been a great underdog lately in football betting. The Cardinals are 5-0 in their last 5 games as a football betting underdog. Arizona has been good on the road as well going 6-2 in NFL betting in their last 8 road games.

New York is a good home team though in NFL betting. The Giants are 6-2-1 in their last 9 games as a home football betting favorite.

Sunday night games see some action on the football betting total. Four of the last five Arizona games have gone under the football betting number. 11 of the last 17 New York home games have gone over the football betting total.
